Abstract:The supercritical water-cooled reactors (SWCR) belong to Generation IV of reactors. These reactors have a number of advantages over currently operating WWERs and PWRs. These advantages include higher thermal efficiency, a more simplified unit design, and the possibility of incorporating it into a closed fuel cycle. It is therefore necessary to identify candidate materials for the SWCR and validate the safety and effectiveness of their use. 12Cr ferritic–martensitic (F/M) stainless steel is considered a candida… Show more
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.
