    摘要: A method of reducing hydrogen absorption in fuel assembly (46) components fabricated from zirconium alloys in a nuclear reactor (10) is provided. The method includes, in an exemplary embodiment, depositing at least one noble metal on at least one surface of the fuel assembly component. Depositing at least one noble metal includes exposing the zirconium alloy fuel assembly components, outside the nuclear reactor, to an aqueous solution including at least one compound containing at least one noble metal.

    摘要: A method for mitigating crack growth on the surface of stainless steel or other alloy components in a water-cooled nuclear reactor wherein a solution or suspension of a compound containing a noble metal is injected into the coolant water along with a reducing agent. The presence of the reducing agent will assist in better deposition of the noble metal, for example, palladium, on metal surfaces, thereby increasing the noble metal loading and also improving the tenacity with which the noble metal is bound onto the metal. The extent of noble metal doping is important in providing a better (lower) ECP response of the metal in the presence of a stoichiometric ratio of H 2 to 0 2 , which reduces the hydrogen demand considerably. The more tenacious the noble metal is bound to the metal surface, the longer its expected life will be, particularly under in-reactor situations where the metal surfaces are subjected to a variety of hydrodynamic conditions.

    摘要: A method for operating a nuclear reactor may include adding one or more chemicals to water in the reactor prior to reactor shutdown, during reactor shutdown, or prior to and during reactor shutdown. The one or more chemicals may trigger release of one or more radioactive substances from at least one out-of-core surface of the reactor into the reactor water. A method for reducing post-shutdown radiation levels of a nuclear reactor may include adding one or more chemicals to water in the reactor prior to reactor shutdown, during reactor shutdown, or prior to and during reactor shutdown. The one or more chemicals may include, for example, one or more metals, metal ions, metal compounds, metals and metal ions, metals and metal compounds, metal ions and metal compounds, or metals, metal ions, and metal compounds.

    摘要: A method for mitigating general corrosion and crack initiation and growth on the surface of metal components in a water-cooled nuclear reactor. A compound containing a non-noble metal such as zirconium or titanium is injected into the water of the reactor in the form of a solution or suspension. This compound decomposes under reactor thermal conditions to release ions/atoms of the non-noble metal which incorporate in or deposit on the surfaces of the components, including the interior surfaces of any cracks formed therein. The compound may be organic, organometallic or inorganic in nature. Zirconium deposited inside a crack will reduce the electrochemical potential inside the crack even if the bulk surface zirconium is depleted under high fluid flow conditions. As a result, the electrochemical potential inside the crack is decreased to a level below the critical potential to protect against intergranular stress corrosion cracking.
