Study of Mechanical Properties, Microstructure, and Residual Stresses of AISI 304/304L Stainless Steel Submerged Arc Weld for Spent Fuel Dry Storage Systems Open
The confinement boundaries of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) canisters are typically fusion welded. Welded microstructures, strain hardening, and residual stresses combined with a chemically aggressive, chloride-rich environment led to concerns …

Welding Process Development for Spent Nuclear Fuel Canister Repair Open
The potential for stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of welded stainless-steel interim storage containers for spent nuclear fuel (SNF) has been identified as a high priority data gap. This paper presents a fusion welding process that was deve…
