SUS316L材のBWR環境中でのSCC挙動解明のために、種々のすきま幅を持った資料の高温水中での物質移動係数を評価した。試料は5mから100mのすきま幅を持つSUS316L材を用い、8ppmの溶存酸素条件で試験した。試験後表面は、レーザーラマン分析法で評価し、電気化学反応と英道拡散を練成させたコムソルマルチフジックスソフトによる計算機シミュレーションも併せて実施した。すきま内の導電率は外部の100倍以上高く、その理由はすきま内で酸素が枯渇した環境でのFeの存在であることを明らかにした。

In order to clarify the SCC behavior of SUS316L under BWR environment, mass transfer inside crevice of SUS316L in high temperature water using various crevice gap samples was investigated. The samples were prepared by put together two SUS316L sheets. Crevice gap differs from 0.005 mm to 0.1 mm. Corrosion tests were conducted in 8 ppm dissolved oxygen (DO) conditions. Surface oxide film was analysed by laser Raman spectroscopy (LRS) after immersion. Numerical simulations were also conducted by using COMSOL Maltiphysics. Diffusion process of DO and the other chemical species were calculated with connected to electrochemical process. Electrical conductivities inside the crevice were 100 times larger than these of outer water. The reason of high conductivity is existence of Fe ions at the DO depletion crevice.
