Book Irradiation Embrittlement of Reactor Pressure Vessels  RPVs  in Nuclear Power Plants

Download or read book Irradiation Embrittlement of Reactor Pressure Vessels RPVs in Nuclear Power Plants written by Naoki Soneda and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reactor Pressure Vessels (RPVs) contain the fuel and therefore the reaction at the heart of nuclear power plants. They are a life-determining structural component: if they suffer serious damage, the continued operation of the plant is in jeopardy. This book critically reviews irradiation embrittlement, the main degradation mechanism affecting RPV steels, and mitigation routes for managing the RPV lifetime. Part I reviews RPV design and fabrication in different countries, with an emphasis on the materials required, their important properties, and manufacturing technologies. Part II then considers RVP embrittlement in operational nuclear power plants using different reactors. Chapters are devoted to embrittlement in light-water reactors, including WWER-type reactors and Magnox reactors. Finally, Part III presents techniques for studying embrittlement, including irradiation simulation techniques, microstructural characterisation techniques, and probabilistic fracture mechanics. Irradiation Embrittlement of Reactor Pressure Vessels (RPVs) in Nuclear Power Plants provides a thorough review of an issue that is central to the safety of nuclear power generation. The book includes contributions from an international team of experts, and will be a useful resource for nuclear plant operators and managers, relevant regulatory and safety bodies, nuclear metallurgists and other academics in this field Discusses reactor pressure vessel (RPV) design and the effect irradiation embrittlement can have, the main degradation mechanism affecting RPVs Examines embrittlement processes in RPVs in different reactor types, as well as techniques for studying RPV embrittlement

Book Irradiation Embrittlement of Reactor Pressure Vessel Steels

Download or read book Irradiation Embrittlement of Reactor Pressure Vessel Steels written by GE. Lucas and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A model of irradiation embrittlement is described for predicting the 41-J Charpy V-notch temperature shifts (?T) as a function of metallurgical variables and neutron exposure conditions. This forecasting procedure combines semi-empirical physical models with statistical analyses of test and power reactor data, and calibration against data from fundamental experiments in which both mechanical property and microstructural changes are evaluated. The models are based on the evolution of a damage microstructure, which includes both copper precipitates and a radiation damage component enhanced by nickel. The precipitate volume is also increased by nickel and impurity phosphorus. Predicted hardening and shifts associated with these extended defects are based on empirically validated models. The model is able to self-consistently rationalize a wide array of microstructural and mechanical property data for commercial pressure vessel steels as well as model alloys.

Book Irradiation Embrittlement of Reactor Pressure Vessel Steels Due to Mechanisms Other Than Radiation Hardening

Download or read book Irradiation Embrittlement of Reactor Pressure Vessel Steels Due to Mechanisms Other Than Radiation Hardening written by BA. Gurovich and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data on Russian pressure vessel steels in unirradiated, irradiated and annealed conditions are presented. The experimental methods applied included impact testing, fractography, electron microscopy and Auger spectroscopy. Contributions from different mechanisms to radiation embrittlement were evaluated. These studies enabled us to conclude that the major contribution to radiation induced ductile-to-brittle transitions temperature shift in Russian pressure vessel steels is delivered by mechanisms other than radiation hardening.
