Basic principles for structural integrity and lifetime assessment of BN-type fast reactors components with regard for material degradation
https://doi.org/10.22349/1994-6716-2018-96-4-191-214
Abstract
The present paper overviews the basic principles of Russian Standard elaborated by authors for justification of lifetime prolongation of BN-600 fast reactor (FR) and for justification of design lifetime of BN-800 and BN-1200 FR. These principles are based on the analysis of the main mechanisms of material embrittlement and damage under service and formulation of the limit conditions for different components of FR of BN type.
