Description

KEPCO NF completed development program to provide the nuclear grade Zr alloy tube manufacturing technology. As part of this development program, the characterization tests for Zr alloy cladding tubes were performed in 2008 to demonstrate the equivalency of the KEPCO NF tubular products to WEC products. Results of characterization tests were equivalent and KEPCO NF has been commercially supplying Zr alloy tubing to domestic utility since 2009. For the purpose of qualifying the KEPCO NF Zr alloy cladding tubing to supply to WEC, characterization test was re-conducted and the results were compared to those of in 2008
