This paper describes the outline of the neutron irradiation test on the thermal properties of zirconia material(3Y-TZP). The measured data of thermal diffusivity for the 3Y-TZP and the outlines of the thermal properties for zirconia-based materials applied to the Thermal Barrier Coating(TBC)/Inert Matrx Fuel(IMF) are also described in this report. The thermal diffusivity is measured by the laser flash method (L/F method). The analyses of the data are adopted with the 3-techniques regulated on Japan Industrial Standard (JIS). Namely, it is (1) the half-time method, (2) logarithmic and (3) regression analysis. The measurements of thermal diffusivity for the both materials isotropic graphite as reference materials and 3Y-TZP are carried out, and discussed to the heat loss. It is necessary to the correction of heat loss in the half-time method for measured at high temperature, and also especially need to the low-thermal diffusivity such as 3Y-TZP.

The Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI) has been carrying out the research on radiation damage mechanism of heat-resistant ceramics composite materials, as one of the subjects of the innovative basic research on high temperature engineering using the High Temperature Engineering Test Reactor (HTTR). A series of preliminary irradiation tests is being made using the Japan Materials Testing Reactor (JMTR). The present report describes results of post-irradiation examinations so far on specimens irradiated in the second and third capsule, designated 98M-41A and 99M-30A, to fast neutron fluences of 1.0$$times$$10$$^{25}$$m$$^{-2}$$(E$$>$$1MeV) at temperatures of 973K-1173K and 1273K-1473K. The PIE were conducted as the fundamental statistics index of the diametral dimensions for irradiated specimen, irradiation induced dimensional change rate and thermal expansion rate.

Shibata, Taiju; Ishihara, Masahiro; Motohashi, Yoshinobu*; Ito, Tsutomu*; Baba, Shinichi; Kikuchi, Makoto*

Fast neutrons (energy $$>$$ 1.6$$times$$10$$^{23}$$ J) were irradiated to tetragonal zirconia polycrystals containing 3 mol% yttria (3Y-TZP) at the fluence levels of 2.5$$times$$10$$^{24}$$ (Light irradiation) and 4.3$$times$$10$$^{24}$$ (Heavy irradiation) m$$^{-2}$$. The irradiation caused no significant swelling in the 3Y-TZP specimens. After the neutron irradiation, superplastic characteristics were examined by tensile tests at a temperature range from 1623 to 1773 K with initial strain rates ranging from 5.0$$times$$10$$^{-4}$$ to 1.67$$times$$10$$^{-2}$$s$$^{-1}$$. It was found that the elongation to fracture of the irradiated specimens was quite small in comparison with the unirradiated ones. The apparent activation energy for the superplastic flow of the irradiated 3Y-TZP was fairly high, i.e., 781 and 693 kJ・mol$$^{-1}$$ for Light and Heavy irradiations, respectively. Atomic displacement damages and defects in the 3Y-TZP caused by the irradiation were thought to be main causes of these property changes.

Nihon Kikai Gakkai M&M 2004 Zairyo Rikigaku Kanfarensu Koen Rombunshu, p.141 - 142, 2004/07

Neutron irradiation reduces the thermal conductivity of graphite, but the reduced thermal conductivity is recovered by annealing effect if the graphite is heated above the irradiation temperature. In this research, annealing effect of thermal conductivity on thermal stress of graphite is investigated. In addition, effect of recovered thermal conductivity on membrane, point and peak stress is also investigated.

Introduction of phosphorus atoms in silicon carbide using nuclear transmutation doping at elevated temperatures

For the application of SiC to electronic devices, it is necessary to develop the fabrication technique of high quality SiC substrates with uniform carrier concentration. Since phosphorus (P) atoms become shallow donors in SiC, nuclear transmutation doping (NTD) is thought to be a good method for the fabrication of n-type SiC substrates with uniform electron concentration. However, defects are also introduced in SiC by neutron irradiation. Although thermal annealing at high temperatures above 1500$$^{circ}$$C is carried out to remove defects after irradiation, heavy damage in SiC is hard to recover. Therefore, the process for the reduction of defects in SiC irradiated with neutrons is necessary to develop. In this study, neutron irradiation into SiC at elevated temperature was carried out to decrease radiation damage. The electrical properties of the samples are studied using Hall effect measurement. Furthermore, to establish the measurement technique for the estimation of P atoms created in SiC by NTD, P atoms in SiC were investigated using Electron Spin Resonance (ESR).

Effect of air-oxidation on the thermal diffusivity of the nuclear grade 2-dimensional carbon fiber reinforced carbon/carbon composite

Sogabe, Toshiaki; Ishihara, Masahiro; Baba, Shinichi; Tachibana, Yukio; Yamaji, Masatoshi*; Iyoku, Tatsuo; Hoshiya, Taiji*

Materials Science Research International, 9(3), p.235 - 241, 2003/09

2D-C/C composite is one of the promising materials as a next-generation core material in gas-cooled reactors. Effect of air-oxidation on the thermal diffusivity up to 1673K of the 2D-C/C composite was investigated. The C/C composite specimens for measurement of thermal diffusivity were oxidized from 1 to 11 percent weight loss in air at 823K. Thermal diffusivity at room temperature declined 10$$sim$$20 percent for parallel to lamina direction and 5$$sim$$9 percent for that of perpendicular within 11 percent weight loss by oxidation. Thermal diffusivity tended to decrease gradually as the increase of oxidation loss in parallel to lamina, however, it decreased in the beginning of oxidation pretty much and not so changed by further oxidation loss in perpendicular to lamina. Change in thermal conductivity under oxidation condition was also estimated.

Study of residual stress for c/c composite by neutron scattering

Baba, Shinichi; Ishihara, Masahiro; Minakawa, Nobuaki; Suzuki, Junichi

Proceedings of International Conference on Advanced Technology in Experimental Mechanics 2003 (ATEM '03) (CD-ROM), 4 Pages, 2003/09

The aim of the present paper is to clarify the residual stress occuring in the c/c composite to improve the manufacturing process. The residual stress was measured by a neutron diffraction method using the RESA in the JRR-3M of JAERI in this study. As a results of the residual stress measurment, it was found that the residual stress of the ring type c/c composite is the comporessive stress, and the macroscopic residual strain/stress is absorbed mainly microstructural change such as pore shape change.

The 3mol% yttria containing tetragonal zirconia polycrystals(3Y-TZP) were irradiated using 130MeV Zr$$^{11+}$$ ions in the TANDEM accelerator facility at Tokai Research Establishment, JAERI. Irradiation was performed with the fluence of 3.5$$times$$10$$^{16}$$ and 2.1$$times$$10$$^{17}$$ ions/m$$^{2}$$. Residual stress and changes in mechanical properties caused by the ion irradiation and the effects of the subsequent annealing are studied. The occurrence of compressive residual stresses and increases in hardness and fracture toughness were found at the surface regions of as-irradiated specimens. It was found from the subsequent annealing that these quantities decreased gradually with raising the annealing temperature and returned to that of un-irradiated state at around 1173K. A most probable cause of the increases in the hardness and fracture toughness after the irradiation may, therefore, be the residual compressive stresses left in the irradiated surface region.
