Effects of triaxial rolling on the microstructure and installation characteristics of reactor pressure vessel studs

Abstract Reactor pressure vessel (RPV) studs are key components of nuclear reactors, and their connection with flange ensures the sealing of the RPV under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions. In the present work, the external threads of the RPV stud were prepared by triaxial rolling, and t...
