Hydride precipitation and reorientation has the potential to embrittle zirconium alloys. This study aims to better understand the influence of the Zr microstructure on hydride precipitation and reorientation. Specifically, the crystallography, phase stability and morphology of hydride precipitation was correlated to microstructural variations due t…

The galling behaviour of 316L stainless steel was investigated in both the unoxidised and oxidised states, after exposure in simulated PWR water for 850 hours. Galling testing was performed according to ASTM G196 in ambient conditions. 316L was found to gall by the wedge growth and flow mechanism in both conditions. This resulted in folds ahead of …
