Page 3 - Sodium filled valves markedly reduce valve temperatures. Heat is transferred from the head of the valve to the stem by the splashing of the liquid sodium as the valve moves up and down.
Page 188 - The term (uL/DL) is properly interpreted in terms of the Reynolds number for wash liquor flow through the cake and the Schmidt number describing the ratio of the molecular diffusivity of momentum to the molecular diffusivity of mass, ie: uL pud /i LD DL - n pD d DL = Re.
Page 102 - Molten sodium burns readily in air to form dense fumes of sodium monoxide. With pure oxygen, molten sodium burns with a yellow flame forming a mixture of sodium monoxide and sodium peroxide.
