Fracture toughness data for ferritic nuclear-pressure-vessel materials. Task B. Laboratory testing. Final report
Description
A comprehensive testing program on production heats of ferritic nuclear pressure vessel steel has recently been completed by Effects Technology, Inc. (ETI), and the results from this program are documented. Mechanical tests performed include tensile, drop weight NDTT, Charpy V-notch, instrumented precracked Charpy, static and dynamic compact fracture, and dynamic three-point bend; the temperature range of -1500F to +5500F was investigated for nine heats of A533B-1 steel, two shielded metal arc weldments (weld metal and heat-affected-zone), and an older A302B steel (ASTM correlation heat). The fracture mechanics tests were performed on specimens up to four inches thick and loading rates ranged from quasi-static to dynamic rates of 5 x 105 ksi-in/sup 1/2//s
