Mechanical behavior of AISI 304SS determined by miniature test methods after neutron irradiation to 28 dpa

Journal Article Rabenberg, Ellen M. ; Jaques, Brian J. ; Sencer, Bulent H. ; ... - Journal of Nuclear Materials

The mechanical properties of AISI 304 stainless steel irradiated for over a decade in the Experimental Breeder Reactor (EBR-II) were measured using miniature mechanical testing methods. The shear punch method was used to evaluate the shear strengths of the neutron-irradiated steel and a correlation factor was empirically determined to predict its tensile strength. The strength of the stainless steel slightly decreased with increasing irradiation temperature, and significantly increased with increasing dose until it saturated above approximately 5 dpa. Ferromagnetic measurements were used to observe and deduce the effects of the stress-induced austenite to martensite transformation as a result of shearmore » punch testing.« less

Predicted behavior of technetium in a geological disposal vault for used nuclear fuel -- Ramifications of a recent determination of the enthalpy of formation of TcO{sub 2}(cr)

Conference Lemire, R J ; Jobe, D J

Recently, the authors reported a value of {Delta}{sub f}H{degree}(TcO{sub 2}(cr)) = {minus}(458 {+-} 6) kJ-mol based on heat of solution measurements. The implications of this value on the database used in the Canadian Nuclear Fuel Waste Management Program for the evaluation of the technetium released by congruent dissolution of used UO{sub 2} fuel have now been assessed. It is probable that the Tc(IV) oxides are more stable than previously predicted and, hence, they are less likely to be oxidized to TcO{sub 4}{sup {minus}}(aq) under moderately reducing conditions. The authors have revised earlier calculations done to predict the solution concentrations ofmore »« less
Comparison of fission-gas release and mechanical behavior during transient nuclear and electrical heating of light-water-reactor fuels

Technical Report Gehl, S M

A determination was made of the suitability of the direct-electrical-heating technique for the simulation of transient-heating effects in light-water-reactor fuels. The magnitudes of fission-gas release and the types of transient-induced microstructural changes were found to be comparable for both nuclear and electrical heating. Apparent differences in the responses of fuels to the two heating methods were found to be the result of the differing irradiation histories of the fuels tested.
Evaluation of the thermal-hydraulic and fuel rod thermal and mechanical deformation behavior during the first Power Burst Facility nuclear blowdown tests

Journal Article MacDonald, P E ; Broughton, J M ; Spore, J W - Nucl. Technol.; (United States)

A preliminary evaluation was made of the results from the LOC-11 nuclar blowdown tests conducted in the Power Burst Facility. The objective of the LOC-11 tests was to measure the thermal and mechanical deformation behavior of pressurized and unpressurized fuel rods exposed to a blowdown (coolant depressurization) similar to that expected in a pressurized water reactor (PWR) during a hypothesized double-ended cold-leg break. Incipient fuel rod cladding collapse and swelling occurred during Test LOC-11C, when the two unpressurized and two pressurized PWR-type rods were exposed to a system blowdown with measured cladding temperatures increasing to 1030 K.
