A Review of the Surface Modifications for Corrosion Mitigation of Steels in Lead and LBE [PDF]

open access: yesCoatings, 2021
The review paper starts with the applications of liquid metals and then concentrates on lead and lead–bismuth eutectic used in Gen IV nuclear reactors and accelerator-driven systems. Key points of degradation modes of austenitic stainless steels and ferritic-martensitic steels, candidates for the structural components, are briefly summarized. Corrosion

A Correlation for Steel Corrosion in Non-isothermal LBE Loops [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Nuclear Science and Technology, 2004
The mass transfer controlled corrosion of steels in non-isothermal LBE loop system was studied based on a kinetic corrosion model. Variations of Sherwood number at the highest temperature isothermal leg in DELTA loop (a non- isothermal Lead-Bismuth Eutectic (LBE) test loop set up at the Los Alamos National Laboratory) were examined to find out the ...

Investigation of the Flow and Heat Transfer Characteristics and Erosion Law of Particulate in LBE on the Subchannel

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
A triangle subchannel model was established to study the flow and heat transfer characteristics of lead‐bismuth eutectic (LBE) alloy and the erosion rate of the core channel by the particulate in LBE. Under different inlet velocities, particle types, particle diameters, and particle concentrations, the erosion law of the channel wall in LEB was ...

Processing of MAX phases: From synthesis to applications

open access: yesJournal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 104, Issue 2, Page 659-690, February 2021., 2021
Abstract MAX phases are a large family of materials with more than 150 different compositions that have been extensively investigated during the last 25 years. They present a layered structure and a unique combination of properties, bridging the gap between metallic and ceramic properties.

High-Temperature Corrosion Behaviors of Structural Materials for Lead-Alloy-Cooled Fast Reactor Application

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The corrosion of nuclear-grade steels in lead–bismuth eutectic (LBE) complicates the realization of high coolant temperatures. Corrosion tests of T91, HT9, and SS316L were performed in static cells at 600 °C for 2000 h at an oxygen level of 10−6 wt ...

Effects of pulsed laser surface remelting on microstructure, hardness and lead-bismuth corrosion behavior of a ferrite/martensitic steel

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2022
A typical ferritic/martensitic (F/M) steel sheet was subjected to pulsed laser surface remelting (LSR) and corrosion test in lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) at 550 °C. There present two modification zones with distinct microstructures in the LSRed specimen: (
