This book was released on 1979 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To investigate iodine stress corrosion cracking on the behavior of Zircaloy tubing, a standard test procedure with internally pressurized creep specimens (I-SCC standard test) and a split-ring test (I-SCC laboratory test) were developed. The threshold value for brittle cracking in iodine is 10-6 g iodine per square centimetre. The uniform elongation shows a clear minimum in its dependence on strain rate. Basal pole orientations in the range of ±50 to ±70 deg relative to the radial direction are the most I-SCC sensitive textures. The I-SCC process occurs in several stages; incubation, crack nucleation, and propagation. A thermodynamic evaluation indicates that I-SCC only occurs when zirconium iodides condense on the Zircaloy surface. Results show that comparisons of the I-SCC susceptibility of tubing manufactured in different manners should be made at the same point on the strain rate versus uniform elongation curves; for example, at the strain rate with the minimum of uniform elongation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication sets out the findings of an international seminar, held in Aix-en-Provence, France in March 2004, which considered recent progress in the field of pellet-clad interaction in light water reactor fuels. It also reviews current understanding of relevant phenomena and their impact on the nuclear fuel rod under the widest possible conditions, and about both uranium-oxide and mixed-oxide fuels.

This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years the effort devoted to assuring both the safety and reliability of commercial nuclear fission power reactors has markedly increased. The incentives for performing this work are large since the resulting im provement in plant productivity translates into lower fuel costs and, more importantly, reduced reliance on imported oil. Reliability and availability of nuclear power plants, whether fission or fusion, demand that more attention be focused on the behavior of materials. Recent experiences with fission power indicate that the basic properties of materials, which categorize their reliable behavior under specified conditions, need reinforcement to assure trouble-free operation for the expected service life. The pursuit of additional information con tinues to demand a better understanding of some of the observed anom alous behavior, and of the margin of resistance of materials to unpre dictable service conditions. It is also apparent that, next to plasma heating and confinement, materials selection represents the most serious chal lenge to the introduction of fusion power. The recognition of the importance of materials performance to nu clear plant performance has sustained a multimillion dollar worldwide research and development effort that has yielded significant results, both in quantification of the performance limits of materials in current use and the development and qualification of new materials. Most of this infor mation appears in the open literature in the form of research reports, journal articles, and conference proceedings.

This book was released on 1979 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stress corrosion cracking (SCC) behavior of short tubular Zircaloy-4 specimens by the action of iodine (initial iodine concentration: 0.1 to 10 mg/cm3) was investigated out-of-pile between 600 and 1100°C under inert gas conditions. The Zircaloy cladding tube was used as-received and with an inner preliminary oxidation. Moreover, the influence of the uranium oxide (UO2) oxygen potential on the SCC behavior was studied.
