The Effect of Radiation-Induced Structural Changes under Accelerated Irradiation on the Behavior of Water-Cooled Reactor Pressure Vessel Steels

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper the influence of fast neutron flux on the structural features and properties of VVER-1000 reactor pressure vessel steels was studied. It is shown that for high Ni steels the flux effect is due to hardening and non-hardening mechanisms of radiation embrittlement.
