Abstract
Irradiation assisted stress corrosion cracking (hereafter, IASCC) is a synergistic effect of neutron irradiation, aqueous environment and stress on nuclear core materials. In order to investigate the IASCC a facility for stress corrosion cracking test of irradiated materials was developed. The slow strain rate technique (SSRT) in high temperature and pressure water environment was employed. The post irradiation SSRT test facility consists of a SSRT test machine and a water circulation and purification system. In the design of the facility attentions were paid to safe and reliable remote operation of heavily irradiated materials in hot cell. Main specification of the facility is as follows; Maximum load capacity : 30 kN, Strain rate range : 10{sup -7} s{sup -1} {approx} 10{sup -3} s{sup -1}, Test temperature/pressure : 300degC and 10 MPa in maximum, Water supply rate : 5 l/h, Controllable range of dissolved oxygen (DO) : 0.01 {approx} 32 ppm. Water chemistry is monitored on DO, electric conductivity, and pH. Electrochemical potential and electric current are monitored and controlled on specimen. A preliminary test was carried out on the type 316 stainless steel irradiated up to 8 dpa in Oak Ridge Research Reactor under spectrally tailored condition. As a result of
