Abstract This paper focuses on separate aspects of the utilization additive manufacturing (AM) for in-core applications in nuclear power industry. study investigates application laser direct energy deposition method (L-DED) to produce in-reactor metallic components within LWR reactors. 316L stainless steel with heat treatment was chosen as material interest experimental evaluation properties after neutron irradiation. Samples tensile test at 300 °C and microstructural analysis (LOM, EBSD,...
The technology of additive manufacturing (AM) offers great opportunities, such as complex geometries and shapes desired products. In contrast to other conventional methods, specifically subtractive formative, where the material is subtracted or filled into a form, principle AM addition. added in thin layers, one on top other, then sintered, usually using laser an electron beam. process continuously repeated until product finished. presented paper discusses methods that use metal materials it...
This paper deals with the evaluation of material properties additively manufactured austenistic alloy 08CH18N10T, which is widely used in Czech Republic nuclear power plants Temelín and Dukovany other VVER reactors around world. For purposes utilization additive manufacturing technologies for core components fabrication, two sets samples were prepared from horizontally vertically L-DED printed blocks 08CH18N10T material. Experiments such as microstructure analysis, porosity Vickers hardness...
