The effect of cooling rate and grain size on hydride microstructure in Zircaloy-4
We explore the distribution, morphology and structure of zirconium hydrides formed using different cooling rates through the solid state Zr+[H] → Zr + hydride transus, in fine and blocky alpha Zircaloy-4. We observe that cooling rate and grain size control the phase and distribution of hydrides form...
