Materials selection - WPMUMAS4

Objectif(s)

know basics of materials and process selection
Differentiate systematic selection methods for academic materials choice and real industrial choices made

Contenu(s)

• Set of requirements, selection criteria
• Materials selection guides and software:
  • Pressure vessels analysis
  • Heat exchanger
• Specificities of nuclear materials selection (« forbidden elements » in a nuclear reactor)
  (for structural material -> effect of neutron irradiation, specificity of the primary medium, activation, activation of corrosion products)
• Specification of processing and implementation (machining, welding, surface treatment)
