PCEA Baseline Characterization: Billet XCP01S8 11 Compressive, Tensile, and Flexure Strengths

Research output: Book/ReportCommissioned report

Abstract

Grade PCEA graphite is one of several grades being considered for the core structures of the Next Generation Nuclear Plant (NGNP). An experimental program is underway to describe the statistical nature of the mechanical properties of PCEA graphite, information needed to support the design of graphite components and licensing of the NGNP. It will be necessary to characterize several billets from various lots or batches. The exact number of billets will depend on the observed variability in properties.
