This book was released on 1962 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of applying nuclear energy to segments of the United States economy other than central station electric power, specifically to small portable power supplies used for transportation purposes, is treated. A survey of various energy conversion devices suitable for use in mobile power units is presented. Included also is a comparison of a number of energy source-converter combinations for application as portable power units. It is concluded that storage of nuclear energy in chemical fuels is the only feasible way of approaching the performance of present day, internal combustion engines with hydrocarbon fuels in a future system dependent totally on nuclear energy. A preliminary survey of likely chemicals fuels for such a nuclear-chemical energy distribution system is presented. Materials which approach hydrocarbons on an energy density basis are light elements in the first three periods of the periodic table having atomic weights below about 40. With this criterion and based on cost, availability and ease of handling, magnesium, aluminum, and silicon are materials which look attractive as mass quantity fuels for a nuclear-chemical energy cycle. Some discussion of the fuel processing cycles and possible types of converters for these fuels is also included.
