Mechanical Properties of Transition Joint Materials in Support of LMFBR Steam Generator Design

摘要

Mechanical data needs are identified for transition joint weldments between austenitic and ferritic structural materials planned for LMFBR service. Since the heat-affected zone in the ferritic material is apparently the critical area, particular attention must be given to behavior in this region. Interim results are given to show differences in mechanical properties of the joint materials with particular emphasis on the ferritic materials. (ERA citation 02:051605)
