    • Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of Emergency Heat Releases from Floating Nuclear Power Plants 

      Jirka, Gerhard H.; Wood, Duncan W.; Harleman, Donald R. F. (Cambridge : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory for Water Resources and Hydrodynamics, Dept. of Civil Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1975-11)
      A combined analytical and experimental study is made of the hydrodynamic and heat transport aspects of transient heat releases during emergency cooling operations at floating nuclear power plants located in protective ...

    • Groundwater Pollution: Technology, Economics and Management 

      Wilson, J. L.; Lenton, R. L.; Porras, J. (Cambridge : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory for Water Resources and Hydrodynamics, Dept. of Civil Engineering, School of Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1976-01)
      A review of the technical, economic and management aspects of groundwater pollution is presented. The groundwater pollution problem is described and several of its important characteristics are pointed out. A description ...

    • An Analytical and Experimental Study of Transient Cooling Pond Behavior 

      Ryan, Patrick J.; Harleman, Donald R. F. (Cambridge : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory for Water Resources and Hydrodynamics, Dept. of Civil Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1973-01)
      Cooling ponds offer many advantages as a means of closed cycle heat dissipation. These are simplicity, low maintenance.and power requirements, aesthetic and possible recreational values, and high thermal inertia. A cooling ...
