This book was released on 2018 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In-reactor dimensional changes in zirconium-based alloys result from a complex interplay of many factors, such as (1) alloy type and composition, including the addition of elements such as niobium, iron, and tin; (2) fabrication process, including cold work, texture, and residual stresses; (3) irradiation temperature; and (4) hydrogen levels. In many cases, the observed dimensional changes in light water reactor fuel-assembly components--especially at high exposures--cannot be fully explained based on current growth and creep models. Therefore, a systematic approach was taken in this multiyear (2005-2011) Nuclear Fuel Industry Research Program investigation. The objective was to measure stress-free irradiation-induced growth (IIG) of specially fabricated alloys through irradiation under controlled conditions in the BOR-60 fast-flux test reactor up to a high fluence of approximately 2 x 1026 m-2 (E > 1 MeV)--equivalent to maximum of approximately 37 dpa exposure--followed by postirradiation examinations (PIEs). Irradiation temperature was within a narrow temperature range (320 ± 10°C). The PIEs included dimensional-change and microhardness measurements, metallography and hydride etching, and scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) or transmission electron microscopy (TEM).

This book was released on 1987 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Irradiation tests conducted for the Advanced Fuel Assembly (AFA) grid development allowed the measurement of the mechanical characteristics, growth, and relaxation of the following materials: stress-relieved, ?-annealed, and ?-quenched Zircaloy-4, and ?-annealed Zr-3Sn-1Mo. The mechanical characteristics of the zirconium alloys approached a limit value as early as 5 x 1024 n m-2, except for the ?-quenched Zircaloy-4 for which the limit value was reached later at about 5 x 1025 n m-2. Uniform elongation at 588 K showed a minimum at about 5 x 1024 n m-2; beyond this fluence, stress-relieved Zircaloy-4 presented the most marked tendency to increase. Longitudinal direction growth of annealed Zircaloy-4 and longitudinal and transverse direction growth of stress-relieved Zircaloy-4 may be expressed by the formula ? = A(?t)n where n = 0.67 (stress-relieved Zircaloy-4) and n = 0.4 (annealed Zircaloy-4). It is doubtful that the growth is associated with a density change. The stress-relaxation of the zirconium base materials is nearly complete for 4 x 1025 n m-2, with the exception of Zr-1Nb which has an intermediate behavior between those of Zircaloy-4 and Inconel 718.

Book excerpt: Experimental investigation of irradiation growth on annealed Zircaloy-4 and 20% to 50% cold-worked Zr-2.5wt%Nb specimens with stress relief has been carried out. The specimens are irradiated in a heavy water reactor at 610 K to 4.2 x 1024 n/m2 (E > 1.0 MeV). The growth strains increase linearly with fluence. The saturation of growth is not observed for all specimens. The difference of growth behavior between two kinds of Zircaloy-4 tube may be associated with the content of minor alloying elements and impurities that influence the microstructure evolution under irradiation.
