Interim report groove corrosion simulation through autoclave film testing
Description:
It has been found that treating autoclaved, aluminum-clad fuel elements in a relatively strong caustic solution produces surface attack patterns that qualitatively resemble corrosion patterns seen on fuel elements irradiated in the Hanford water-cooled production reactors. It is believed that mechanisms controlling this ex-reactor phenomenon may yield insight into similar processes for in-reactor irradiation conditions. To date, autoclave film tests have been designed to yield comparative resul…
