The strain behavior of prestressed concrete reactor pressure vessels over 20 years operation

  • 1. Central Electricity Research Lab., Surrey (UK)

Description

This paper is based on work in support of a statutory long term safe review (LTSR) prepared, to validate the integrity of a nuclear plant for an operational life of up to 30 years. The R1 vessel strain behavior is updated and reassessed, and data for R2 vessel is included. These regular results were obtained primarily with the vessels pressurized
