The defect inspection on the irradiated fuel rod by ultrasonic resonance examination

  • 1. KAERI, Taejon (Korea, Republic of)

Description

An apparatus of ultrasonic resonance examination system was developed in order to examine irradiated fuel rods. The calibration and test condition of the apparatus were established by using standard specimens. An ultrasonic resonant examination on fuel rods irradiated in the PWR of Kori-l unit was performed to evaluate the reliability of the apparatus, where the discharge burnup of the fuel rod is 37,840 MWD/MTU. Also, the integrity of irradiated fuel rods was evaluated. It was concluded that the reliability of ultrasonic resonant examination apparatus is very good reliable for the examination of irradiated fuel rods
