Review of pressurized thermal shock studies of large scale reactor pressure vessels in Hungary

Tamás Fekete

In Hungary, four nuclear power units were constructed more than 30 years ago; they are operating to this day. In every unit, VVER-440 V213-type light-water cooled, light-water moderated, pressurized water reactors are in operation. Since…

Stress intensity factors for through clad and underclad defects in a WWER type reactor pressure vessel in pressurised thermal shock analysis

Vitalii Antonchenko, Yaroslav Dubyk, Volodymyr Iasnii

This study develops stress intensity factor (SIF) solutions for cladded WWER reactor pressure vessel nozzles subjected to pressurised thermal shock loading. Although finite element analysis is widely used for fracture assessment…
