Axial strength of Zircaloy-4 samples with reduced thickness after a simulated loss of coolant accident
To investigate wall-thinning impact on axial load resistance of Zircaloy-4 cladding rods after a LOCA transient, axial tensile samples have been machined on as-received tubes with reduced thicknesses between 370 and 580 μm. After high temperature oxidation under steam at 1200 °C with measured ECR ra...
