ISHTE (IN-Situ Heat Transfer Experiment) Platform Transponder and Controller: Final Report

摘要

A team of engineers at the Applied Physics Laboratory, University of Washington has been working on an In-Situ Heat Transfer Experiment (ISHTE) to be performed in the sediments of the deep ocean. This experiment is part of the Subseabed Disposal Program sponsored by the US Department of Energy and managed by Sandia National Laboratories to assess the feasibility of using deep ocean sediments to store high-level nuclear waste. This is a final report of the work performed on ISHTE from July 1982-June 1986 under Contract 16-9970. A technical description of the electronic systems designed and built, and a list of relevant reports written by the APL Team are included. (ERA citation 12:013293)
