Abstract:The Generation IV Supercritical Water Reactor (GEN IV SCWR) is being proposed as an advanced high efficiency thermal reactor for baseload electricity production. One of the major unknowns with this reactor concept is the behavior of fuel cladding and structural components under the extremely aggressive SCWR environment. The objective of this project was to evaluate candidate materials for SCWR application. The path the project has taken is to first determine the most likely candidate materials by surveying the… Show more
