Primary coolant pipe rupture study AT(49-24)-0202

  • 1. General Electric Co., San Jose, CA

Description

Fatigue crack growth rate tests were conducted on 304 stainless steel and 516 carbon steel in a simulated BWR primary water environment. A study was carried out to determine the feasibility of measuring sensitization in type 304 SS by use of an Electrochemical Potentiokinetic Reactivation (EPR) technique, develop correlations between degree of sensitization (as measured electrochemically) and the intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) resistance of type 304 SS, and provide technical data for evaluating the degree of sensitization and IGSCC susceptibility of welded components. 27 figures, 8 tables
