STRESS CORROSION CRACK INITIATION OF COLD-WORKED ALLOY 600 AND ALLOY 690 IN PWR PRIMARY WATER

Abstract

This is an annual report summarizing research on stress corrosion crack initiation in alloy 600 and alloy 690 in simulated pressurized water reactor primary water environments. A key aspect of the work is developing an understanding of the mechanisms and controlling factors for producing initiated cracks in these materials. This work covers research that explores and compares the initiation response between alloy 600 and alloy 690.
