Applications of EPRI database on environmentally assisted cracking in the nuclear industry

  • 1. Battelle-Columbus Div., 505 King Avenue, Columbus, OH 43201-2693

Description

A computerized database, EPRI Database on Environmentally Assisted Cracking (EDEAC), has been established to assemble stress-corrosion cracking and corrosion fatigue crack growth data on materials of interest to nuclear power generation. The database is being used to review the basis for the existing ASME reference fatigue crack growth curves for low alloy ferritic steels used for reactor pressure vessels. Correlations between fatigue crack growth rate and stress intensity factor range with corrections for frequency, stress ratio, and temperature for austenitic stainless steels in air are also being developed
