The paper deals with research, development and verification of production technology of selected welded joints for pressure vessels of primary circuits of nuclear power plants of type MIR 1200. Effect of various welding technology including simulation heat treatment on mechanical and fracture properties have been studied. Four type of homogenous 10GN2MFA – 10GN2MFA type of welded joints have been prepared for experimental programme. Conventional mechanical properties (tensile and impact test) as well as unconventional mechanical properties (fracture mechanics, low-cycle fatigue and stress corrosion cracking in water environment) have been studied. Effect of elevated working temperature on structure and material properties has been evaluated. Temperature dependencies of shear fracture have been plotted and effect of welding procedure on transition temperature shift has been evaluated. Experimental data have been compared with numerical simulation using FEM.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
