X-Ray and Photoacoustic Studies on Zircaloy-2

Article Preview

Abstract:

Zircaloy-2, an useful nuclear material is studied here by photoacoustics to correlate with the measurements of X-rays. The microstructure variations observed in X-rays could be explained on the basis of thermal diffusivity measured by photoacoustics technique.
