The purpose of this research is to laser cladding of stellite6 and stainless steel 17-4PH powders on the substrate of stainless steel 17-4PH, and investigate its solidification microstructure. The results showed that the microstructure of the stellite6 cladding has a cobalt solid solution ground phase with an FCC structure and Cr7C3 and Cr23C6 carbides. Also, the values of the primary dendrit...
The heat transfer process from pellet to coolant is one of the important issues in nuclear reactor. In this regard, the fuel to clad gap and its physical and chemical properties are effective factors on heat transfer in nuclear fuel rod discussion. So, the energy distribution function of electrons with an energy about 0.5 MeV in fuel rod gap in Busherhr’s VVER-1000 nuclear reactor was investiga...
We demonstrate experimentally that the relativistic electron flow in a dense plasma can be efficiently confined and guided in targets exhibiting a high-resistivity-core-low-resistivity-cladding structure analogous to optical waveguides. The relativistic electron beam is shown to be confined to an area of the order of the core diameter (50 μm), which has the potential to substantially enhance th...
The hydride distribution in a cracked Zircaloy cladding tube has been investigated by neutron radiography, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Hydrogen measurements. The crack occurred during handling in the spent fuel pool. Back Scattered Electron images showed some unexpected contrasts in zones with high hydrogen concentrations near cracks. This phase has been studied by SEM and EPMA. Afte...
The safe and economic operation of nuclear power plants (NPPs) requires that the behaviour and performance of the fuel can be calculated reliably over its expected lifetime. This requires highly developed codes that treat the nuclear fuel in a general manner and which take into account the large number of in uences on fuel behaviour, e.g. thermal, mechanical, chemical, etc. Although many mature...

Materials are evaluated for use as in-core diluents and as peripheral reflectors for Gas-Cooled Fast Reactor (GFR) service, using coupled Monte Carlo (MCNP) and isotopics (ORIGEN) codes. The principal performance indices compared were effects on beginning of irradiation multiplication factor, reactivity-lineated burnup, and coolant (here CO2) void reactivity. While low values of the macroscopic...
Delayed hydride cracking (DHC) remains an important phenomenon when considering cladding mechanical integrity during transport and storage of spent nuclear fuel. This work studies the hydrogen diffusion precipitation patterns DHC as a function temperature via high-resolution neutron imaging. Zircaloy-2 tubes with without inner liner were radially cracked from outside-in direction within range 2...
In this paper the physical basis for the design of an optical fibre sensor suited for aqueous medium and gas phase based on the excitation of an evanescent wave at the core/cladding interface is developed. The detection based on the refractive index changes (between 1.41 and 1.45) of the infinite dielectric medium which can be an electrolyte or a sol-gel polymer deposited on the uncladed part o...
