Include nitrogen and metallic species in the radiolysis code so that the man-rem N16 costs, when operating on HWC, may be accurately anticipated. Incorporate stainless steel aging effects, including hardening, embrittlement, and loss of fracture toughness, as well as ECP drift with time. Continue developing parameter data bases that will enhance the reliability of the models. Develop and incorporate models for radiation and thermal sensitization of stainless steel. Yearly workshops at The Pennsylvania State University to review critical technical issues, to train plant personnel on the simulation technology, and to transfer new technologies to the sponsor's organization.
System upgrades as they are developed.
Preferred access to personnel at the Center For Advanced Materials to troubleshoot simulation issues. A minimum of ten sponsors will be required to launch the program in the form currently envisaged. We anticipate a start date of October 1, 1996. Send a notice expressing interest in the program to a contact person below. Provide the mailing address, phone and FAX numbers, and E-mail address of a key contact person within your organization.
