INTERNAL-PRESSURE CREEP-RUPTURE TESTS OF ZIRCALOY-2 TUBING

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4171349
Stress-rupture tests were performed on unirradiated Zircaloy-1 at room temperature, 600, and 700 deg T. The results indicated that the ductility, defined as effective strain, is not significantly affected by time to rupture. At 600 deg F, the ductility was considerably greater than at room temperature or at 700 deg F. Depending on the conditions of test, the ductility values range from 16 to 77%.- (auth)
