Effects of Zr-hydride distribution of irradiated Zircaloy-2 cladding in RIA-simulating pellet-clad mechanical interaction testing
A series of simulated reactivity-initiated accident (RIA) tests on irradiated fully recrystallized boiling water reactor Zircaloy-2 cladding has been performed by means of the expansion-due-to-compression (EDC) test method. The EDC method reproduces fuel pellet–clad mechanical interaction (PCMI) con...
