Analysis of a 50 cm diameter electroformed copper target that failed during hydrotesting
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6137146
The RTNS-II facility at LLNL uses 50 cm diameter electroformed copper targets for the production of neutrons used in the study of radiation damage of materials. One of these targets failed during a post manufacture hydrotest. This report identifies the causes that led to this failure, i.e., an insufficient pre-plating cleaning operation, and an interruption of the electroforming process.
