Critical temperature of the lead–bismuth eutectic (LBE) alloy
Liquid metals such as Bi and Pb and Pb–Bi eutectic alloy are serious contenders for use as coolant in LMFBRs in lieu of sodium due to a number of attractive characteristics (high density, low moderation, low neutron absorption and activation, high boiling point and poor interaction with water and air, etc.). Analysis of hypothetical accidents is of relevance to predict the catastrophe involving...
متن کاملOxygen-iron interaction in liquid lead-bismuth eutectic alloy.
Iron released by steel corrosion was found to be a key impurity in reactions with dissolved oxygen in liquid lead-bismuth eutectic alloys. The iron-oxygen-magnetite equilibrium was characterized, allowing the quantification of phenomena that are important for long-term operation of lead-alloy based installations such as corrosion rate control and management of precipitates.
متن کاملInstrumentation of Ysz Oyxgen Sensor Calibration in Lead-bismuth Eutectic
Although liquid lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) is a good candidate for the coolant in the subcritical transmutation blanket, it is also known to be very corrosive to stainless steel, the material of the carrying tubes and the containers. Such a corrosion problem can be prevented by producing and maintaining a protective oxide layer on the exposed surface of stainless steel. Proper formation of the...
متن کاملExperimental investigation of steel corrosion in Lead Bismuth Eutectic (LBE): characterization, species identification, and chemical reactions
The goal of the present research is to achieve a basic understanding of corrosion of steels by Lead Bismuth Eutectic (LBE). Liquid LBE is under consideration in the transmuter as both a coolant and a target material. There have been studies of LBE, especially by the Russians, but a fundamental understanding and verification of its role in the corrosion of steels is still very
متن کاملInvestigation of Corrosion of Steel by Lead Bismuth Eutectic
A new research program has begun at UNLV in accelerator transmutation of waste. Lead Bismuth Eutectic (LBE) has been proposed for use in programs for accelerator transmutation of waste. The LBE acts both as a coolant and as a sputtering target. We have recently initiated a program to investigate the corrosion of steels by LBE. Corrosion products and chemical reactions will be identified using U...
