Book A SURVEY OF THE EFFECTS OF NEUTRON IRRADIATION ON THE IMPACT AND OTHER MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF PRESSURE VESSEL STEELS FOR THE SM 2 REACTOR

Download or read book A SURVEY OF THE EFFECTS OF NEUTRON IRRADIATION ON THE IMPACT AND OTHER MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF PRESSURE VESSEL STEELS FOR THE SM 2 REACTOR written by and published by . This book was released on 1960 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A literature survey on the effects of neutron irradiation on impact and other mechanical properties of both ferritic steels and austenitic stainless steels is presented. The materials studied included carbon and low alloy steels such as: ASTM A-212B, ASTM A-201, ASTM A-301B (CR-Mo), ASTM A-106 (coarse and fine grained), ASTM A-285, ASTM A-302B (Mn-Mo), ASTM A-353, ASTM A-203, Grade D, E-7016 carbon steel weld metal, USS Carilloy T-1, HY-65, and HY-80. Types 304 and 347 stainless steels were investigated as representative austenitic materials which might be used in pressure vessel construction. An evaluation was made of the irradiation induced changes in the mechancal properties of the above materials. The ferritic steels were evaluated primarily on the basis of increases in transition temperature due to irradiation and decreases in the amount of maximum energy absorbed prior to ductile failure. Factors such as industrial experience, changes in other mechanical properties, and the susceptibility of these materials to temper embrittlement were considered. Austenitic stainless steels were evaluated on the basis of post-irradiation and low temperature impact strength and on irradiation induced changes in other mechanical properties. It is concluded that austenitic stainless steels are capable of resisting harmful property damage at integrated neutron fluxes> 1 Mev of at least 1 to 2 x 10/sup 21/ nvt. Most carbon or low alloy steels with the exception of ASTM A-212B, were subject to severe property damage at exposures in excess of 1 x 10/sup 19/ nvt. With the application of special reactor operating procedures, it was determined that ASTM A-212B will be satisfactory at integrated neutron fluxes up to 5 x 10/sup 19/ nvt. (auth).

Book The Effect of Nuclear Radiation on Structural Metals

Download or read book The Effect of Nuclear Radiation on Structural Metals written by Frederic R. Shober and published by . This book was released on 1961 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of fast-neutron (>1 Mev) irradiation on the mechanical properties of structural metals and alloys was studied. Although the yield strengths and ultimate tensile strengths are increased su stantially for most materials, the ductility suffers severe decreases. This report presents these changes in properties of several structural metals for a number of neutron exposures within the 1.0 x 10 to the 18th power to 5.0 x 10 to the 21st power n/sq cm range. Data summarizing these effects on several classes of materials such as carbon steels, low-alloy steels, stainless steels, Zr-base alloys, ni-base alloys, Al-base alloys, and Ta are given. Additional data which show the influence f irradiation temperatures and of post-irradiation annealing on the radiation-induced property changes are also given and discussed. Increases as great as 175% in yield strength, 100% in ultimate strength, and decreases of 80% in total elongation are reported for fast-neutron exposures as great as 5 10 to the 21st power n/sq cm.

Book Material Research in Atomic Scale by M  ssbauer Spectroscopy

Download or read book Material Research in Atomic Scale by M ssbauer Spectroscopy written by Miroslav Mashlan and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mössbauer spectroscopy is uniquely able to probe hyperfine interactions by looking at the short-range order of resonant atoms. Materials containing an appropriate isotope as one of their constituent atoms, such as iron or tin, are readily investigated. But even materials that do not contain Mössbauer-active atoms can be investigated if the probe atoms are incorporated in minor quantities (ca. 0.1 at.-%) to act as molecular-level indicators. These 35 papers collected here represent a state-of-the-art description of Mössbauer spectroscopy techniques applied to advanced materials. The topics covered comprise investigations of nanomaterials, nanoparticles, and quasicrystals, artificially structured materials as well as applications of Mössbauer spectroscopy in chemistry, mineralogy and metallurgy. The main aim of is the dissemination of information on research and recent developments of the method in materials science as obtained in leading Mössbauer laboratories.

Book Changes in Electromagnetic Properties of a Low Alloy Steel Caused by Neutron Irradiation

Download or read book Changes in Electromagnetic Properties of a Low Alloy Steel Caused by Neutron Irradiation written by T. Goto and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order to develop a method for the nondestructive evaluation of material deterioration in nuclear pressure vessels, changes in the electromagnetic properties of the low-alloy steel A533B, Class. 1 and its weld metal caused by neutron irradiation up to ~3x1023 n/m2 of neutron fluence at 561K were measured. Electrical resistance, coercivity and Barkhausen noise were selected as the electromagnetic properties to measure. It was found that decreases of several % in the readings of electrical resistance and coercivity, and an increase of several % in the Barkhausen noise occurred due to neutron irradiation. Good correlations between the changes in the electromagnetic properties and those in the mechanical properties were confirmed. Furthermore, an equation using the results of the three tests was found to estimate well the transition temperature and yield strength. From this, the authors conclude that the electromagnetic tests have potential as methods for nondestructive evaluation of material deterioration in the reactor vessels of nuclear power plants.
