National Nuclear Laboratory Tender Result

Active Electrochemical Measurements-Non-active electrochemistry data for AGR cladding has been generated and modelling evaluation was carried out by NPL, using the newly measured data to guide inputs, to predict susceptibility of the fuel cladding to SCC in caustic conditions. Following these initial experiments, additional non-active testing has been carried out and subsequent further modelling tasks and development have been recommended. NPL will carry out the following Tasks: • Investigation of the sensitivity of...
