Description

Wall thinning of serviced carbon steel piping of the secondary cooling system after long term operation of Advanced Thermal prototype Reactor (ATR) Fugen power station has been investigated as a series of evaluation of validity and availability of utilization of serviced materials on research projects focused on aging management. Reliability of wall thinning rates of the steel piping has been examined referring the previous inspection data. Examinations also have been made on prediction of wall thinning rates, rationalization of management of pipe wall thinning and verification of countermeasures against wall thinning. (author)
