The low-frequency noises are fluctuations in the neutron flux density, in the low-frequency range up to 4 Hz, which generate noise in the neutron instrumentation and could affect the limitation and protection system of the reactor core. Some European pressurized water reactors (PWRs) experienced the effect of low-frequency noise, opening a new research line for the verification of the neutron-kinetics/thermal-hydraulic coupled codes. A CTF/PARCS v. 2.7 simulation study to verify whether periodical fluctuations in the core inlet temperature could activate the core protection system has been done, obtaining the frequency spectrum of the power oscillation amplitudes.

Abstract INCONEL FILLER METAL 52 is a high chromium filler metal for gas-metal-arc and gas-tungsten-arc welding of Inconel Alloy 690 (See Alloy Digest Ni-266, March 1981). Higher chromium is beneficial in resisting stress-corrosion cracking in high purity water for pressurized water reactors and for resistance to oxidizing acids. This datasheet provides information on composition and tensile properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as joining. Filing Code: Ni-412. Producer or source: Inco Alloys International Inc..
