Applicability of the induction bending process to the P91 pipe of the PGSFR

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2021
The application of induction bending processes to industrial pipe production is increasing. The induction bending process has the effect of reducing the number of inspections and preventing leaks by reducing the weld of the pipe.
