Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. An understanding of the ageing degradation of the major pressurized and boiling water reactor structures and components is given in this book in a comprehensive and lucid manner. The design and fabrication of each structure or component is briefly described followed by information on the associated stressors. Interactions between the design, materials and various stressors that cause ageing degradation are reviewed. In many cases, ageing degradation problems have occurred, and the plant experience to date is analyzed. The discussions summarize the available ageing-related information and are supported with extensive references, including references to US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) documents, Electric Power Research Institute reports, US and international conference proceedings and other publications. The book should prove to be a useful reference for engineers engaged in the operation and life extension of the present generation of nuclear power plants and for those engaged in the design of advanced light water reactors.It also aims to provide engineering students with insight into the practical materials-related issues associated with the design and operation of nuclear power plants. The work serves as a basis for programmes to address the new ageing-related issues likely to arise as plants get older. Presents an understanding of the aging degradation of the major pressurized and boiling water reactor structures and components. This work contains discussions that summarize the aging-related information and are supported with extensive references, including to the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) documents.
