This book was released on 1989 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper is in several parts: the first presents an overview of research activities sponsored by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on neutron irradiation embrittlement of pressure vessel steels. A series of irradiation experiments have evaluated effects of chemistry on the fracture toughness properties of submerged arc welds representing current nuclear vessel fabrication practices and provide data to validate ASME Code practices. A correlation between Charpy energy and fracture toughness is being studied as is a program on radiation sensitivity to define the role of dose rate and to study the effects of postirradiation heat treatment (annealing). The development of a comprehensive data base for radiation embrittlement data has been initiated and is being applied in a correlation of reactor surveillance data with test reactor data. A comprehensive dosimetry effort has produced validated standard methods for calculating and measuring neutron flux and fluence parameters and the correlation of these parameters to embrittlement of pressure vessel steels in light water reactors. Our knowledge of radiation damage to reactor vessels has also been greatly increased in recent years by the accumulation of power reactor surveillance data and by better models and better analysis techniques applied to that data. Unfortunately, the results show that radiation damage is often more than previously predicted, using Revision 1 of NRC Regulatory Guide 1.99, and will result in more restrictive pressure temperature limits. The second part of this paper describes some of the system and operational impacts produced, which in turn lead to challenges to long-established safety margins. Finally, a number of outstanding issues which require further research are discussed, many of which will require better understanding of radiation damage mechanisms.

Download or read book Structural Characterization of Nanoscale Intermetallic Precipitates in Highly Neutron Irradiated Reactor Pressure Vessel Steels written by and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, massive, thick-walled pressure vessels are permanent nuclear reactor structures that are exposed to a damaging flux of neutrons from the adjacent core. The neutrons cause embrittlement of the vessel steel that increases with dose (fluence or service time), as manifested by an increasing temperature transition from ductile-to-brittle fracture. Moreover, extending reactor life requires demonstrating that large safety margins against brittle fracture are maintained at the higher neutron fluence associated with 60 to 80 years of service. Here synchrotron-based x-ray diffraction and small angle x-ray scattering measurements are used to characterize a new class of highly embrittling nm-scale Mn-Ni-Si precipitates that develop in the irradiated steels at high fluence. Furthermore, these precipitates can lead to severe embrittlement that is not accounted for in current regulatory models. Application of the complementarity techniques has, for the very first time, successfully characterized the crystal structures of the nanoprecipitates, while also yielding self-consistent compositions, volume fractions and size distributions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seven commercial steels in the form of plate, forging, or weldments supplied by Japan, France, and the Federal Republic of Germany to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Co-ordinated Research Programme on "Analysis of the Behaviour of Advanced Reactor Pressure Vessel Steels under Neutron Irradiation" were irradiated at 290°C to a nominal fast fluence of 1 x 1019 n/cm2 (>1 MeV) to evaluate the embrittlement sensitivity of these steels under neutron irradiation. These steels were basically of ASTM Types A533 and A508 (Unified Numbering System [UNI] K12521 and K13502) and their weldments, which had extra low copper and phosphorous contents. The copper and phosphorous contents in these individual steels varied from 0.01 to 0.07 wt% and 0.007 to 0.015 wt%, respectively. The nickel contents in these steels varied from 0.56 to 0.93 wt%.

Download or read book New Information on Neutron Embrittlement and Embrittlement Relief of Reactor Pressure Vessel Steels written by L. E. STEELE and published by . This book was released on 1964 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neutron embrittlement of the carbon and low-alloy steels investigated has been defined in terms of increases in the nil ductility transition (NDT) temperature. Increases in the NDT of pressure vessel steels as great as 545F have been observed. The extent of embrittlement has been shown to depend upon the neutron exposure, the type of steel, and the irradiation temperature. Embrittlement relief through annealing heat treatment at temperatures above the pressure vessel operating temperature has been demonstrated. Significant embrittlement relief was observed even with multiple irradiation-annealing cycles, the extent of relief being primarily dependent upon the irradiation temperature and the subsequent annealing temperature. Experimental data are reviewed with consideration for application to operating nuclear pressure vessel conditions. Preliminary results of power reactor surveillance and of the evaluation of one pressure vessel after nuclear service are related to experimental results. The value of extending the evaluation of surveillance speciments and of pressure vessels after removal from nuclear service are reviewed with reference to current uncertainties as to possible nuclear environmental and stress effects.
