Investigation of Local Corrosion Degradation Developed on a Pipeline System in Service Period

Article Preview

Abstract:

Corrosion degradation was observed in a nuclear power plant spent fuel cooling system. A systematic and comprehensive investigation program was developed which was negatively influenced by the limit of sampling (contaminated material). Corrosion tests, mechanical and microstructural investigations were carried out and also microbiological effect was examined. Major contributors to the degradation were identified.
