Burnup and radiation embrittlement of the U-Mo neutron source target
The burnup of uranium target plates of the NSC KIPT neutron source was studied. An analysis of experimental work on the effect of neutron irradiation on the strength and plastic properties of uranium and U-Mo alloys under conditions close to the operation of the target has been carried out. A descri...

Digital Library of Periodicals of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine| Summary: | The burnup of uranium target plates of the NSC KIPT neutron source was studied. An analysis of experimental work on the effect of neutron irradiation on the strength and plastic properties of uranium and U-Mo alloys under conditions close to the operation of the target has been carried out. A description of the processes of radiation embrittlement is presented, taking into account the deformation and porosity of materials at various levels of burnup. An estimate of the expected service life of a uranium target under irradiation has been carried out. |
