...). To accurately predict lifetimes to ensure safe and economic operation, an understanding of IASCC is necessary. Among the factors which influence IASCC, the effect of radiation on corrosion is among the least understood. Abstract Austenitic stainless steel, and ferritic-martensitic steel were irradiated...

... lifetimes for the pipe sections, guiding engineering and maintenance activities on the Hanford Nuclear Site. Ultrasonic Transducer Scanning Electron Microscopy Radiation Contamination Pipe Integrity INTRODUCTION Pipe wall thickness UT measurements performed in the laboratory used a Krautkramer Model...

.... Series 4a contained 0.2 wt % CaCl₂, and series 4b 0.92 wt % CaCl₂. The purpose of the series 5a tests was to evaluate the impact of an increased alpha radiation dose on corrosion during exposure to a selected oxide/salt composition. The principal radioactivity from plutonium...

...) spent nuclear fuel (SNF) biofilm aluminum microbially sampling radiation INTRODUCTION Many of the Department of Energy (DOE) facilities have become the temporary storage location for spent nuclear fuel (SNF). The fuel which has accumulated at these facilities, ¹ e.g., Idaho National...

.../cm²s electrical heating 100 kW water volume 300 dm³ The loop is a closed stainless-steel piping system with usual technological scheme ( Fig. 1 ). The experimental equipment of the loop consists of: Abstract Experimental test facility enabling exposition of materials to radiation...

... waste storage is generally complicated by the high radiation and complexed caustic environment. This paper deals with the details of a proposed development of commercial probes to monitor corrosion of the DSTs at the Hanford Site. Once the corrosion probes are successfully developed, the technology can...
