“…e RPV is manufactured from low-alloy ferritic steel, SA508 Class 3. Table 2 presents the key properties such as thermal conductivity (λ), elastic modulus (E), coefficient of thermal expansion (α), and specific heat capacity (C) of the RPV steel [11]. In addition, density, Poisson's ratio, and the vessel's material yield strength at room temperature are 7,600 kgm −3 , 0.3, and 450 MPa, respectively, as stated in [11,21].…”
