Title: Vessel V-7 and V-8 repair and characterization of insert material. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6768630

Pieces of Type SA508-2 steel, specially tempered to produce a high-impact-transition temperature, were welded in the side walls of Intermediate Test Vessels V-7 and V-8. These vessels are to be tested by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in the Pressurized-Thermal-Shock (PTS) Project of the Heavy-Section Steel Technology (HSST) Program. A comparable piece of forging taken from the same source and heat treated with the vessels was characterized for its mechanical properties to provide data for use in the PTS tests.
