The BAMBOO code developed by the Japan Atomic Energy Agency is a computer code to analyze fuel pin bundle deformation in a fast reactor wire-spaced type fuel pin bundle subassembly. In this study we developed an analysis model to consider friction at the contact points between adjacent fuel pins, and at these between outermost fuel pins and a duct that are due to bundle-duct interaction. This model deals with friction forces at contact points in the contact and separation analysis of the code, and employs a convergent calculation where contact forces are gradually determined to avoid numerical instability when the friction occurs. Analyses of BAMBOO with the model showed very slight effects on the onset of contact between outer most pins and a duct, and on directions of pin displacements, within the range of practical friction coefficients.

Reduced activation ferritic/martensitic steel, as typified by F82H, is a promising candidate for structural material of DEMO fusion reactors. To prevent plasma sputtering, tungsten (W) coating was essentially required. This study aims to examine the irradiation effects on hardness and microstructure of vacuum-plasma-spray coated W-F82H steel, with a special emphasis on the impacts of grain-refining induced by frictional stir processing (FSP). It was revealed that the hardness of the VPS-FSP W after ion-irradiation to 5.4 dpa at 800$$^{circ}$$C were not remarkably changed, where bulk W usually exhibited significant irradiation hardening.

Pressure drop characteristics of Nb$$_{3}$$Al cable-in-conduit conductor under electromagnetic force; Relation between pressure drop characteristics and cable stiffness

Hamada, Kazuya; Matsui, Kunihiro; Takahashi, Yoshikazu; Nakajima, Hideo; Kato, Takashi; CS Model Coil Test Group

Teion Kogaku, 38(8), p.417 - 424, 2003/08

As one of the R&D of ITER. a hydraulic performance of Nb$$_{3}$$Al insert coil was measured and compared with other Nb$$_{3}$$Sn conductors. It seems that a longer twist pitch will promote a triangle helium flow space among 4th twist stage cables, jacket and center channel and contribute reduction of pressure drop. Under 500 kN/m of the electromagnetic force, the pressure drop of the Nb$$_{3}$$Al insert decreased by approximately 5%. Nb$$_{3}$$Al conductor indicated quit rigid characteristic under the electromagnetic force and suitable for future magnet with higher magnetic field and current.

In the Engineering Design Activities of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), Toroidal Field (TF) Insert have been developed and tested successfully. In the experiment, pressure drop performance of TF insert was investigated. There were two purposes for the investigation. One is to verify the pressure drop prediction using correlations proposed by various researchers. Second is to observe a behavior of pressure drop under the electromagnetic force. The pressure drops of TF insert decreased by around 12% during current-carrying operation of 46kA at 13T. After several current-carrying operation, the friction factor of TF insert has finally reached a value which is around 12% lower than that of virgin state and was not recovered even if there were zero current. It is considered that a deformation of cable cross section inside the conductor jacket appears due to electromagnetic force and a new flow path in the jacket is generated.

Inelastic constitutive equation in Alloy800H

Kaji, Yoshiyuki; Kikuchi, Kenji; Penkalla, H. J.*

Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Creep and Fatigue at Elevated Temperatures (CREEP7), p.179 - 183, 2001/06

A creep constitutive equation in Alloy800H was developed at 700, 800 and 850oC. In the equation, the inelastic strain rate is written in the form of a flow equation of the Norton-Bailey type and the hardening during deformation under various loads is induced by an internal stress which is subdivided into back stress and friction stress. The back stress represents a conservative part of the creep resistance while the friction stress includes all the dissipative parts in the internal structure such as grain boundary sliding, diffusion and interaction between dislocation and precipitation. Parameters were determined by the deformation properties for creep under constant stress conditions at each temperature. Deformation analyses show a good agreement between calculations and experimental results for creep tests at each temperature.
