Journal ArticleDOI
Development of cold spray chromium coatings for improved accident tolerant zirconium-alloy cladding
Benjamin Maier,Hwasung Yeom,Greg Johnson,Tyler Dabney,Jorie Walters,Peng Xu,Javier Romero,Hemant Hiralal Shah,Kumar Sridharan +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, a cold spray process for the deposition of chromium (Cr) coatings on zirconium-alloys is presented with the goal of improving the accident tolerance of light water reactor (LWR) fuel cladding tubes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of cold spray process for oxidation-resistant FeCrAl and Mo diffusion barrier coatings on optimized ZIRLO™
TL;DR: In this article, a Mo interlayer coating was developed also using the cold spray process to serve as a diffusion barrier between the Fe-based coating and the Zr-alloy substrate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of Cold Spray Coatings for Accident-Tolerant Fuel Cladding in Light Water Reactors
Benjamin Maier,Hwasung Yeom,Greg Johnson,Tyler Dabney,Jorie Walters,Javier Romero,Hemant Hiralal Shah,Peng Xu,Kumar Sridharan +8 more
TL;DR: The cold spray coating process has been developed at the University of Wisconsin-Madison for the deposition of oxidation-resistant coatings on zirconium alloy light water reactor fuel cladding with the goal of improving accident tolerance during loss of coolant scenarios.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental Evaluation of Cold Spray FeCrAl Alloys Coated Zirconium-alloy for Potential Accident Tolerant Fuel Cladding
TL;DR: In this paper, two FeCrAl alloy coatings with different Cr and Al contents were deposited on Zr-alloy substrates via the cold spray deposition method to study the efficacy of these coatings to improve the accident tolerance of Zralloy fuel cladding in light water reactors (LWRs).
Journal ArticleDOI
Unveiling damage mechanisms of chromium-coated zirconium-based fuel claddings by coupling digital image correlation and acoustic emission
David C. Roache,Alex Jarama,Clifton H. Bumgardner,Frederick M. Heim,Jorie Walters,Javier Romero,Benjamin Maier,Xiaodong Li +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the failure mechanisms of chromium-coated zirconium-alloy claddings under expected, critical loading conditions were determined and a two-dimensional fracture model was also developed for the expanding plug loading condition based on inputs determined from mechanical testing.
