The main characteristics of the sodium pipe system in Demonstration Fast Reactor Power Plant (DFRPP) are high-temperature, thin-wall and big-caliber, which is different from high-pressure and thick-wall of the pressurized water reactor system, and the system is long-term operate in the environment of liquid metal sodium. How to guarantee the reliability of materials in high temperature are most important in material option. Engineering design depend on the criterion. Material standards are different in different countries, and corresponding construction codes are different too. Comparing the stainless steel pipe material standers at home and abroad and analyzing the material standards’ difference according to different construction codes, a stainless steel pipe material criterion system is put forward in this paper which is applicable for the DFRPP.

A project with the acronym IRBIS (Ignalina Risk Based Inspection pilot Study) has been performed with the objective to perform a quantitative risk analysis of a total of 1240 stainless steel welds in Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant, unit 2 (INPP-2). The damage mechanism is IGSCC and the failure probabilities are quantified by using probabilistic fracture mechanics. The conditional core damage probabilities are taken from the plant PSA.
