Abstract:
In the framework of Accident tolerant fuel (ATF) program, several types of claddings and pellets with enhanced accident tolerance have been developed for light water reactors. Oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) FeCrAl alloys have been considered as a promising candidate for cladding materials due to their good mechanical strength, excellent structural stability and chemical durability at high temperature. The out-of-pile performance of 14Cr ODS-FeCrAl cladding tube fabricated by cold-rolling, such as microstructure, thermophysical property, mechanical property, and corrosion resistance, has b

Abstract:
Fuel cladding tubes in nuclear fuel assembly are held up by supporting grids because the tubes are long and slender. Fluid flows of high-pressure and high-temperature in the tubes cause oscillating motions between tubes and supports. This is called as FIV (flow induced vibration), which causes fretting wear in contact parts of tube-support. The fretting wear of tube-support can threaten the safety of nuclear power plant. Therefore, a research about the fretting wear characteristics of tube-support is required. The fretting wear tests were performed with supporting grids and cladding tubes, esp

Fretting can be defined as the oscillatory motion with very small amplitudes, which usually occur between two contacting surfaces. Fretting wear is the removal of material from contacting surfaces through fretting action.

Abstract:
Zirconium-based alloys are commonly used as a material for nuclear fuel claddings in the light water reactors. The cladding material must function to fix a huge number of pellets, while conducting heat into the coolant that flows turbulently around the fuel rods. Cladding tubes can contain gaseous fission products that escape the fuel. Thus, by functioning as a sealed unit, it prevents a contamination of the coolant water with high-radioactive fission products. The integrity of claddings is always a critical issue during reactor operation and wet or dry storage and transport of the spent fuel

By systematic variations of the laboratory testing parameters it has proved possible to achieve scars with the same type of damage characteristics as those from the fuel assembly endurance test.

Abstract:
The formation of hydrides in zirconium alloy has been one of the essential matters of discussion to maintain mechanical strength of nuclear fuel cladding tubes. In this work, we examined the precipitation process of zirconium hydride by transmission electron microscopy under hydrogen ion irradiation. Zircaloy-4, which has been used extensively as nuclear fuel cladding, was irradiated with hydrogen ion at room temperature to achieve enough hydrogen concentration for precipitation. The growth of hydrides accompanied with dislocations around hydrides was observed under hydrogen implantation. The

Abstract:
The resistance upset welds (RUW) made from E110 alloy without and with Cr coatings were oxidized in air atmosphere at 1100 °C for 2, 10 and 30 min. The cross-section microstructure, elemental composition and hardness were studied before and after oxidation using optical and scanning electron microscopy, and indentations in welding region. The RUW welding does not noticeably change oxidation kinetics of E110 alloy. The most crucial effect has surface non-regularities formed after welding, which prevent uniform coating deposition on full surface of welded cladding tube and end plug. Cr coating d
