This book was released on 1989 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A corrosion and hydriding test series on zirconium alloys in the Engineering Test Reactor G-7 loop demonstrated relatively large lot-to-lot and alloy-to-alloy differences in hydriding rates under irradiation. Similar differences were also found among irradiated Zircaloy-2 pressure tubes fabricated by three suppliers for the Hanford Site N Reactor. This substantial in-reactor hydriding data base and access to archive materials from these same alloys permitted an investigation of methods to reproduce the in-reactor hydriding orders-of-merit by an out-of-reactor method.

This book was released on 1990 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An out-of-reactor method for screening to predict relative in-reactor hydriding behavior of zirconium-bsed materials is disclosed. Samples of zirconium-based materials having different composition and/or fabrication are autoclaved in a relatively concentrated (0.3 to 1.0M) aqueous lithium hydroxide solution at constant temperatures within the water reactor coolant temperature range (280.degree. to 316.degree. C.). Samples tested by this out-of-reactor procedure, when compared on the basis of the ratio of hydrogen weight gain to oxide weight gain, accurately predict the relative rate of hyriding for the same materials when subject to in-reactor (irradiated) corrision.

This book was released on 2012-08-04 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By drawing together the current theoretical and experimental understanding of the phenomena of delayed hydride cracking (DHC) in zirconium alloys, The Effect of Hydrogen and Hydrides on the Integrity of Zirconium Alloy Components: Delayed Hydride Cracking provides a detailed explanation focusing on the properties of hydrogen and hydrides in these alloys. Whilst the emphasis lies on zirconium alloys, the combination of both the empirical and mechanistic approaches creates a solid understanding that can also be applied to other hydride forming metals. This up-to-date reference focuses on documented research surrounding DHC, including current methodologies for design and assessment of the results of periodic in-service inspections of pressure tubes in nuclear reactors. Emphasis is placed on showing how our understanding of DHC is supported by progress in general understanding of such broad fields as the study of hysteresis associated with first order phase transformations, phase relationships in coherent crystalline metallic solids, the physics of point and line defects, diffusion of substitutional and interstitial atoms in crystalline solids, and continuum fracture and solid mechanics. Furthermore, an account of current methodologies is given illustrating how such understanding of hydrogen, hydrides and DHC in zirconium alloys underpins these methodologies for assessments of real life cases in the Canadian nuclear industry. The all-encompassing approach makes The Effect of Hydrogen and Hydrides on the Integrity of Zirconium Alloy Component: Delayed Hydride Cracking an ideal reference source for students, researchers and industry professionals alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Irradiation-induced dislocations significantly affect the mechanical properties of zirconium alloys, altering slip and influencing creep and growth. Thus, the quantitative characterization of irradiation defects as a function of fluence, cold work, and/or thermal treatments is important for models that attempt to predict their impact on properties. Whole-pattern diffraction line-profile analysis (DLPA) is a well-established modern tool for microstructure characterization based on first-principle physical models for dislocation density measurements in plastically deformed materials. However, applying these DLPA methods directly to irradiated materials yields higher than expected dislocation density values compared with historical transmission electron microscopy (TEM) measurements and past line-broadening analysis studies calibrated to TEM observations. In an effort to understand these differences, a new microstructural model was developed for DLPA to specifically address dislocation structures consisting of elliptical a- and c-component loops. To compare the refined DLPA method with TEM measurements, high-resolution neutron diffraction patterns on nonirradiated and irradiated Zr-2.5Nb samples were collected with the Neutron Powder Diffractometer instrument at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center and were evaluated. High-resolution TEM measurements were performed at the Reactor Materials Testing Laboratory, Queen's University, for comparison with the DLPA results. The capabilities and inherent uncertainties of both the refined DLPA and TEM methods are compared and discussed in detail. We show that the differences between the density values provided by DLPA and TEM are inherent to the methods and can be reconciled with the interpretation of the data.
