Weldability of high Cr ferritic steel for $620^{\circ}C$ grade turbin casing were investigated. The effect of carbon content on the cold and hot cracking susceptibility and HAZ softening was determined. The cast steel with higher carbon content showed higher HAZ hardness because of the dissolution of cabonitrides during welding thermal cycle. Moreover, it showed higher solidification cracking sensitivity because of the little S-ferrite formation in weld metal. Both steels showed HAZ softening at $900^{\circ}C$ peak temperature after PWHT.

This study is to investigate the phase changes and cold workability after isothermal transformation at $780^{\circ}C$ by using the high temperature gas nitrided (HTGN) STS 430 ferritic stainless steel specimens. The phase diagram of STS 430 steel obtained by calculation showed that the phase appeared at $1100^{\circ}C$ showed as ${\alpha}+{\gamma}{\rightarrow}{\gamma}{\rightarrow}{\gamma}+Cr_2N{\rightarrow}{\gamma}+Cr_2N+CrN$ with increasing nitrogen concentration. Also, the transformation of ${\gamma}{\rightarrow}Cr_2N$ during heat treatment isothermally at $780^{\circ}C$, nitrogen pearlite with lamellar type was fully formed at the nitrogen permated surface layer for 10 hrs. However, this transformation was not completed for 1 hr, resulting nitrogen pearlite plus martensite. The cold rolled specimen of isothermally transformed at $780^{\circ}C$ for 10 hrs after high temperature gas nitriding decreased the layer thickness of nitrogen pearlite inducing the deformation of hard $Cr_2N$ phase. the dissolution rate of $Cr_2N$ phase increased rapidly with increasing cold rolling ratio. Specimens with the microstructure of nitrogen pearlite (isothermally transformed at $780^{\circ}C$ for 10 hrs) were possible to cold rolling without crack formation. However, the mixed structures of nitrogen pearlite + martensite (isothermally transformed at $780^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr) were impossible to cold deformation without cracking.

This report was prepared to give informations on a proper way to develop new consumables for the steels with improved weldability. Traditionally, hydrogen control has been pursued mainly for suppressing the HICC in HAZ but it also has contributed to HICC in weld metal. Facing the limitations in reducing the hydrogen content, it is now important to consider the microstructural control approach in order to improve the HICC resistance of weld metal . It has been shown that changes in alloy design, and hence composition and microstructure, was quite effective in producing high strength weld metal with improved resistance to cold cracking. Besides the economic test methods for evaluating susceptibility of multipass weld metal is essential to promote the development of welding consumables.

콘크리트 구조물은 동일한 환경에 노출되었다 하더라도 하중특성과 콜드조인트 유무에 따라서 확산특성이 변화하고 이에 따라 내구수명이 변하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 선행연구를 분석하여 OPC 및 GGBFS를 사용한 콘크리트의 압축특성, 인장특성, 콜드조인트를 고려한 함수를 도출하였다. 경간 10.0m의 단순보를 가정하여 하중을 2.5kN/m에서 균열모멘트에 이르는 5.5kN/m까지 증가시키면서 내구수명을 평가하였다. 최대 하중에 이를 경우, 건전부 OPC 콘크리트의 경우 인장영역에서는 89.4%로, 압축영역에서는 101%로 내구수명이 변화하였으며, GGBFS 콘크리트의 경우 80.0%와 106%의 변화가 발생하였다. 콜드조인트의 경우 GGBFS를 사용한 콘크리트에서는 압축부에서는 82~80%로, 인장부에서는 69~61% 수준으로 크게 감소하였는데, 건전부의 확산계수가 OPC에 비하여 작지만 콜드조인트부의 확산성 증가가 상대적으로 크기 때문이다.

In this paper, an application example for fitness-for-service of material is shown. A kind of instrument valve is made of austenitic stainless steel fabricated by the cold working process. The tensile strength of the cold worked austenitic stainless steel has to be limited under 90 ksi to prevent the stress corrosion cracking in power plants. In industrial fields, tensile strengths of some materials were discovered to be over the regulation requirements in a certified material test report (CMTR). Owner's verification tests were performed to compare with that in a CMTR and to check the appropriateness. It is found that, in the case of verification test under the required test speed, valve materials could be used in the field. Although it is only one application sample of material check process in the power generation site, this case study could show an importance of basic experimental technology in academia and research circles.

The experiences and causes of pressure tube cracking accidents in the CANDU reactors and the development of the fuel channel at AECL(Atomic Energy Canada Limited) have been described. Most of the accidents were caused by Delayed Hydride Cracking(DHC). In the cases of the Pickering units 3&4 and the Bruce unit 2, excessive residual stresses induced by an improper rolled joint process played a role in DHC. In the Pickering unit 2, cracks formed by contact between the pressure and calandria tubes due to the movement of the garter spring were the direct cause of the failure. To extend the life of a fuel channel, several R&D programs examining each component of the fuel channel have been carried out in Canada. For a pressure tube, the main concern is focused on changing the fabrication processes, e.g., increasing cold working rate, conducting intermediate annealing and adding a third element like Fe, V, and Cr to the tube material. In addition to them, chromium plating on the end fitting and increasing wall thickness at both ends of the calandria tube are considered. There has also been much interest in the improvement of fuel channel performance in our country and several development programs are currently under way.

This work is concerned with a statistical approach to the life prediction on irradiation-assisted stress corrosion cracking (IASCC) of stainless steel (SS) for core internals of a pressurized water reactor (PWR). The previous results of the time-to-failure of IASCC measured on neutron-irradiated stainless steel components were statistically analyzed in terms of stress and irradiation. The accelerating life testing model of IASCC of cold worked Type 316 SS was established based on an inverse power model with two stress-variables, the applied stress and irradiation dose. Considering the variation of the yield strength and applied stress with the irradiation dose in the model, the remaining life of the baffle former bolt was statistically predicted during operation under complex environments of stress and irradiation.

The dislocation density in strain-hardened Alloy 690 was analyzed using scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) to study the relationship between the local plastic strain and susceptibility to primary water stress corrosion cracking (PWSCC) in nuclear power plants. The test material was cold-rolled at various thickness reduction ratios from 10% to 40% to simulate the strain-hardening condition of plant components. The dislocation densities were measured at grain boundaries (GB) and in grain interiors of strain-hardened specimens from STEM images. The dislocation density in the grain interior monotonically increased as the strain-hardening proceeded, while the dislocation density at the GB increased with strain-hardening up to 20% but slightly decreases upon further deformation to 40%. The decreased dislocation density at the GB was attributed to the formation of deformation twins. After the PWSCC growth test of strain-hardened Alloy 690, the fraction of intergranular (IG) fracture was obtained from fractography. In contrast to the change in the dislocation density with strain-hardening, the fraction of IG fracture increased remarkably when strain-hardened over 20%. From the results, it was suggested that the PWSCC growth behavior of strain-hardened Alloy 690 not only depends on the dislocation density, but also on the microstructural defects at the GB.

고성능 콘크리트는 단위 시멘트량이 많기 때문에 초기재령에 있어서 시멘트의 급속한 수화반응으로 인해 시멘트 경화체는 자기수축이 발생하게 된다. 이러한 자기수축 변형이 발생한 부재가 외부 또는 내부 구속 상태에 있을 경우에는 수축균열이 발생하게 되며, 이러한 초기재령에 발생한 수축균열은 콘크리트 구조물의 미관 및 내구성 저하를 초래하기 때문에 이를 억제하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 한편, 이러한 고성능 콘크리트의 자기수축을 저감시키는 방법으로서 팽창재의 혼입에 의한 수축보상이 있는데 자기수축 저감에 유효한 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 지금까지의 팽창재에 의한 고성능 콘크리트의 자기수축에 관한 연구는 실험에 근거한 연구로서 정량적인 연구가 아닌 정성적인 연구가 대부분 이었다. 이러한 팽창재에 의한 고성능 콘크리트의 자기수축 저감량을 정량적으로 평가하기 위해서는 팽창재의 수화반응 모델부터 시작하여 팽창재에 의한 시멘트 경화체의 팽창 모델을 구축할 필요가 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 초기 재령의 자기수축 저감을 목적으로 초기재령에서 빠른 팽창력을 발휘하도록 재료 설계된 에트링가이트-석회 복합계를 대상으로하여, 팽창재의 입도분포 및 수화의 진행에 따른 인접겔과의 접촉을 고려한 팽창재의 수화반응모델을 제안하였다. 또한, 제안된 팽창재의 수화반응모델을 실험적으로 모델의 타당성에 대해서 검토한 결과, 본 연구에서 제안한 팽창재의 수화반응 모델은 실험치를 양호하게 평가할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
