Material research for small modular reactor cooled by supercritical water – ECC-SMART
Original language description
The main objectives of the project are to define the design requirements for the future SCW-SMR technology, to develop the pre-licensing study and guidelines for the demonstration of the safety in the further development stages of the SCW-SMR concept including the methodologies and tools to be used and to identify the key obstacles for the future SMR licensing and propose a strategy for this process. The project consortium consists of laboratories from Europe, Canada, and China. Besides the thermo-hydraulics, safety, neutronics, and reactor physics, assessment of the corrosion behavior of cladding candidate materials (alloy 800H, stainless steel 310S, alumina forming austenitic alloy - AFA) in supercritical water (SCW) at 380/500 °C and 25 MPa are one of the key activities. For this purpose, experiments such as long-term (1000-8000 hours) exposure tests in autoclaves, neutron irradiation, electrochemistry, and radiolysis are involved. The paper describes the progress made on the ECC-SMART project with focus on microstructural characterization of candidate cladding materials. In addition, the description of the setup of corresponding experiments is included.
