SA508-F_300C_1DPA_(ID-110)

This is the mechanical testing data archive from a neutron irradiation campaign of nuclear structural alloys fabricated by powder metallurgy with hot isostatic pressing (PM-HIP). Data in this archive include uniaxial tensile testing data, fractography of selected tensile bars, and nanoindentation. The irradiation campaign was designed to facilitate a direct comparison of PM-HIP to conventional casting or forging. Five common nuclear structural alloys were included in the campaign: 316L stainless steel, SA508 pressure vessel steel, Grade 91 ferritic steel, and Ni-base alloys 625 and 690. Irradiations were carried out in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) at Idaho National Laboratory (INL) to target doses of 1 and 3 displacements per atom (dpa) at target temperatures of 300ºC and 400ºC through the DOE Office of Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Science User Facilities (NSUF) project 15-8242.

Transmission electron microscopy of ion irradiated ODS MA956 samples

Oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) alloys are promising candidate materials for the next generation advanced nuclear reactors due to their superior irradiation resistance and mechanical properties. To better understand the effect of irradiation on MA956, it is essential to study higher dose (50-100 dpa) samples, so that the general trend of microstructural evolution and the resulting radiation-hardening can be deduced. Currently, ion irradiations are considered the only way to achieve doses beyond ~50 dpa in a practical time frame relevant to alloy and welding development programs. This dataset contains TEM characterization results of ODS MA956 samples that were ion irradiated under different conditions: Sample #5 (1.25 dpa at 190℃); Sample #9 (50 dpa at 190℃); Sample #15 (1.25dpa under 320℃); and Sample 17 (25 dpa at 320℃). TEM characterization focused on the irradiation induced defects (dislocation lines and loops) using the on-zone axis bright field STEM technique. These data were collected using a FEI Tecnai G2 F30 S/TEM at Microscopy and Characterization Suite (MaCS) at Center for Advanced Energy Studies (CAES), Idaho Falls, ID. This project (ion irradiation and TEM studies) was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Nuclear Energy under DOE Idaho Operations Office Contract DE-AC07-05ID14517 as part of Nuclear Science User Facilities award #18-14784 (PI: Ramprashad Prabhakaran, PNNL).

Enabling the Write-Once Read-Many (WORM) Dashboard and Web Interface for HPC Data Storage

Idaho National Laboratory (INL), supported by the Department of Energy Office of Nuclear Energy (DOE-NE) through the Nuclear Science User Facilities, provides access to supercomputer systems and data storage along with support staff for system management, software installation, cybersecurity, and user support to the broader DOE-NE user community. A key component of this is providing long-term or perpetual data storage as part of efforts to improve reproducibility in modeling and simulation in addition to supporting simulations with regulatory compliance requirements. This milestone details the deployment of a new type of storage option for users requiring tamper resistant perpetual storage of data and the associated support for data control and release via the data storage web interface. The perpetual data storage system is integrated within the Open OnDemand framework deployed at INL and is called the ?WORM? in recognition of its write-once read-many characteristics.

Impact of Irradiation on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Materials Produced by Advanced Manufacturing

Advanced non-light water reactor designs, known as Generation IV (Gen IV) reactors, typically operate at higher temperatures and under more extreme radiation conditions than conventional light water reactors. A critical aspect of the successful deployment and advancement of Gen IV reactor designs is the selection of appropriate structural materials for specific applications, which necessitates the timely development of new materials and manufacturing processes. Advanced manufacturing (AM) offers numerous opportunities for innovative designs, enabling the production of high-performance components with potentially shorter development cycles compared to traditional manufacturing methods. However, a significant challenge in deploying AM technologies in the nuclear energy sector is the current lack of data on the irradiation performance of AM-produced components. This presentation will discuss neutron and ion irradiation results of AM materials, including stainless steel 316L, Grade 91, SA508, Inconel 718, and Inconel 625 materials. The materials were manufactured by AM, such as Powder Metallurgy Hot Isostatic Pressing (PM HIP), Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) and Directed Energy Deposition (DED). The effects of neutron irradiation on microstructure (e.g., dislocations, loops, and nanoclusters), tensile properties (e.g., strength and ductility), and ion irradiation on Irradiation-Assisted Stress Corrosion Cracking (IASCC) will be explored. Results are collected from several projects supported by the Nuclear Science User Facilities (NSUF) program.
