  • Investigation of Thermal Degradation in Structural Alloys for Nuclear Power Systems

    Creator:
    Teng, Fei
    Abstract:
    The thermal degradation of structural materials is considered to be a key factor for evaluating the lifetime of current nuclear power plants. Ni-based and Fe-based alloys, such as 690, 625, 304, and 316, are widely used in nuclear industry as structural components due to the extraordinary corrosion resistance and mechanical...

  • Role of Stoichiometry on Ordering in Ni-Cr Alloys

    Creator:
    Teng, Fei
    Abstract:
    Mechanical property degradation due to isothermal ageing is of potential concern for alloys based on the Ni-Cr binary system (e.g., Inconel 690, 625), particularly in nuclear power applications where component lifetimes can exceed 40 years. In the present research, the disorder-order phase transformation, which is the primary mechanism of ageing,...
