EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON RADIATION-INDUCED CONTRACTION OF REACTOR GRAPHITE

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4030709· OSTI ID:4030709
;
The distortion behavior of graphite as a function of irradiation temperature is reviewed. The behavior of needlecoke and CSF graphite was examined over moderate exposures in the GETR. Results showed needle-coke to be less contracting than CSF. Details of contraction show a minimum contraction rate per 10/sup 21/ nvt at 600 to 800 deg C for both types. Limitations to be placed on the data presented are listed. (P. C.H.)
