摘要:
A plant operational status monitoring supervisory system comprising; means for extracting information directly relating to water quality of an objective portion consecutively for a period of time by means of an electrochemical water quality sensor installed in an objective portion to monitor in-situ in a plant; means for evaluating water quality based on thus extracted information; means for comparing an obtained water quality evaluation result with a reference value for a predetermined plant operation procedure; and means for displaying or storing necessary portion out of said comparison results; is disclosed.An electrochemical reference electrode used in this system being provided with an electrolyte layer containing ion of the electrode member; a porous ceramic layer surrounding the same without permeating liquid; and electrode member electrochemically contacting with said elec-trolyte layer; and a terminal electrically contacting with said electrode member; and further having a long life in high temperature water, various status of high temperature water in objective portions and that of nearby constituent members in a plant are possible to be monitored online by means of this reference electrode.Further, because monitored data are processed by means of a neural network, the higher precision level of monitoring has been achieved.

A zirconium-based alloy with a high corrosion resistance, consisting essentially of 1 to 2 wt % Sn, 0.20 to 0.35 wt % Fe, 0.03 to 0.16 wt % Ni and the balance substantially Zr. The Fe/Ni content ratio of the alloy ranges between 1.4 and 8. The structure of the alloy has fine intermetallic compound of Sn and Ni is precipitated within the zirconium crystal grain of .alpha.-phase. The alloy may further contain 0.05 to 0.15 wt % Cr. This alloy exhibits reduced hydrogen absorption rate and suffers from no nodular corrosion, so that it can suitably be used as a material of nuclear fuel cladding tubes. The nuclear fuel cladding tube made of this alloys exhibits extended service life when used in a nuclear reactor of high degree of burn-up.
摘要:
A high-purity metal member is produced by charging raw material such as sponge zirconium into a cavity of a mold such as a hearth under a vacuum atmosphere; irradiating the material with electron beams to melt it at a limited area of the cavity while forming a molten metal pool and irradiating the pool with the electron beam thereby elevate the molten metal pool to evaporate away impurities therein; and shifting the mold relative to the electron beams to provide a high-purity metal member. The metal pool is limited in its size and irradiated high energy density electron beams so that the temperature is raised whereby the impurities are easily evaporated away. The mold may have an annular cavity. In case of high-purity sleeve formation, the electron beams are irradiated onto the raw material while rotating the mold so that melting and solidification appear in a circumferential direction to be repeated. The impurities are repeatedly exposed to the electron beams.

This invention is in a method of manufacturing a composite steel ingot wherein a consumable electrode is inserted into an empty space positioned concentrically with said steel ingot, and electric power is fed to said consumable electrode to effect electroslag remelting under a slag bath and then to solidify the molten metal, while taking out an electric current through a plurality of collecting electrodes which are electrically connected to said steel ingot placed on a surface plate, the improvement in that a flow path of the electric current passing from said consumable electrode to said collecting electrodes is moved in the circumferential direction of said steel ingot during said electroslag remelting.

The present invention provides a shaped superconductor article such as wire, tape or disk, comprising an oxide superconductor phase and a metal phase in a monolayered or multilayered form, the metal phase comprising a copper, iron, nickel or titanium base alloy containing 1 to 10% by weight of aluminum and having an oxygen-impermeable oxide film formed thereon, preventing the diffusion of oxygen from the oxide superconductor phase to the metal phase.
摘要:
A roller for rolling mill comprising an entirely non-metallic sintered body composed principally of at least one material selected from silicon carbide, silicon nitride, sialon, alumina and zirconia and having a relative density which is at least 96% of the theoretical density, the roller having an initial crown in the range of -300 .mu.m to +300 .mu.m, is provided. This roller for rolling mill has a high hardness and high wear resistance and can be used as a work roll.

摘要:
A method of producing forged article by casting a molten alloy steel containing 0.02 to 0.15 wt % of niobium and 9 to 12 wt % of chromium in a metal mold to form an ingot and subjecting the ingot to a forging. The ingot is formed to have a diameter greater than the height thereby to prevent generation of eutectic NbC and sedimental crystals.
