Dissolution corrosion of 316L austenitic stainless steels in contact with static liquid lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) at 500 °C [PDF]

Journal of Nuclear Materials, 2017
Abstract This work addresses the dissolution corrosion behaviour of 316L austenitic stainless steels. For this purpose, solution-annealed and cold-deformed 316L steels were simultaneously exposed to oxygen-poor ( −8 mass%) static liquid lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) for 253–3282 h at 500 °C.

Selective leaching of nickel and chromium from Type 316 austenitic steel in oxygen-containing lead–bismuth eutectic (LBE)

Corrosion Science, 2014
Abstract Selective leaching of nickel and chromium is a corrosion mode of austenitic steels that typically occurs during exposure to a liquid metal at elevated temperature. In lead–bismuth eutectic (LBE), selective leaching is observed even if oxygen is added in order to form protective oxides on the steel surface.

Investigation and evaluation of high-temperature lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) corrosion resistance and compression performance of the FeCrAl-based coatings

Materials Research Express
Abstract The high-temperature lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) corrosion resistance and ring compression performance of the Fe15Cr11Al2Si, Fe15Cr11Al0.5Y, and Fe15Cr11Al2Si0.5Y coatings were investigated. Even if the corrosion test temperature reaches 800 °C, all these coatings can effectively protect the steel cladding tube.

A perspective on high‐temperature heat storage using liquid metal as heat transfer fluid

Energy Storage, Volume 5, Issue 8, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Energy storage systems are essential to secure a reliable electricity and heat supply in an energy system with high shares of fluctuating renewable energy sources. Thermal energy storage systems offer the possibility to store energy in the form of heat relatively simply and at low cost.

Statistical in situ scanning electron microscopy investigation on the failure of oxide scales

Materials Genome Engineering Advances, Volume 1, Issue 1, September 2023., 2023
The mechanism and associated critical conditions of failure of the oxide scales or surface coatings are pivotal to the safe service of structural materials. Herein, a high‐throughput method integrating in situ scanning electron microscope with a small‐tapered specimen is demonstrated, uniquely achieving a mechanistic study with statistically reliable ...

Design and Thermal‐Hydraulic Evaluation of Integrated Steam Generator with Serpentine‐Tube Configuration for Prevention of Sodium‐Water Reaction

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Although sodium‐cooled fast reactors (SFRs) can have inherently enhanced safety features, there is a concern regarding unexpected events arising from a sodium‐water reaction (SWR) in a Rankine cycle steam generator. Innovative concepts of integrated steam generators (ISGs), including an intermediate heat exchanger, have been suggested for eliminating ...
