  • The leak before break(LBB) concept is difficult to apply to a structure with a thin tube that is immersed in a water environment. A heat exchanger in a nuclear power plant is such a structure. The present paper addresses an application of the LBB concept to a heat exchanger in a nuclear power plant. The minimum leaked coolant amount(approximately 37.9 liters) containing the radioactive material which can activate the radiation detector device installed in near the heat exchanger is assumed. A postulated initial flaw size that can not grow to a critical flaw size within the time period to activate the radiation detector is justified. In this case, the radiation detector can activate the warning signal caused by coolant leakage from initially postulated flaws of the heat exchanger. The nuclear plant can safely shutdown when this occurs. Since the postulated initial flaw size can not grow to the critical flaw size, the structural integrity of the heat exchanger is not impeded. Particularly the informational scenario presented in this paper discusses an actual nuclear plant.

  • Offshore structure may be considerably vulnerable to fatigue failure while initial flaw propagates under cyclic loading, so crack propagation analysis/fracture/yield assessments about initial flaw detected by NDT are necessarily required. In this paper, case studies have been conducted by flaw assessment program using engineering criticality analysis (ECA) approach. Variables such as flaw geometry, flaw size, structure geometry, dynamic stress, static stress, toughness, crack growth rate, stress concentration factor (SCF) affected by weld are considered as analysis conditions. As a result, the safety of structure was examined during fatigue loading life. Also, critical initial flaw size was calculated by sensitivity module in the developed program. The flaw assessments analysis using ECA approach can be very useful in offshore industries owing to the increasing demand on the engineering criticality analysis of potential initial flaws.

  • 후방산란된 초음파의 입사각 의존성을 이용한 표면 결함유형의 평가가 시도되었다. 평탄한 유리위에 순수한 홈, 구리로 채워진 홈, 표면위 붙여진 구리선등의 표면결함 시편에 대한 후방산란 프로파일은 제 1 임계각에서 종파의 산란과 관련된 새로운 프로파일을 보여주었다. 결함에 의한 산란효과가 클수록 후방프로파일들의 정점 위치는 작게 나타났으며 후방복사 프로파일과 정점 위치에서의 파열의 모양은 결함의 유형과 위치에 따라 누수파와 산란파의 복합적 요인에 의해 다른 형태를 보여주었다.

  • Needs for structural integrity procedure such as BS 7910, the nuclear industry document R6 Rev.4 and the European FITNET procedure are being increased in industry. Especially, BS 7910 allows metallic structures to be assessed on the basis of fracture mechanics analysis rather than strict adherence to design and fabricated codes. This study is to propose the flaw assessment to judge the toughness level of welding consumables at the development stage. The FCA welding consumables with YP 690MPa and CTOD over 0.25 mm have been developed and its allowable weld flaw size considering actually applied environment has been evaluated. Since the estimated allowable defect size is sufficiently detectable in nondestructive testing, the toughness of the developed material is judged to be appropriate and no problem in securing the structural integrity.

  • It is very important to have exact informations on the properties and characteristics of the sintering material as a new material of machine elements. To study the sintering spur gear and the sintering specimen to be consisted of Fe-Cu-C, the constant stress amplitude fatigue test is performed by using an electrohydrolic survo-controlled pulsating tester. Consequently, the S-N curves are obtained and the fatigue strength is compared with flaw depth. Accordingly, this study presents the fatigue strength of sintering spur gears, the critical notch depth of sintering materials and the effects of flaw depth on the bending fatigue strength.

  • It is difficult to detect such flaws as stress - corrosion cracking or corrosion wastage(loss of bolt diameter) in the threads. In many cases the critical size of a flaw is very small(1-2 mm order). This paper describes how it is possible to discriminate small flaw indications in threads using the time difference or thread signals(TDTS) by a signal-conditioning technique.

  • 국내에서 개발중인 콘크리트 저장용기는 방사성 물질의 격납 건전성을 유지하기 위하여 내부에 캐니스터를 포함하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 콘크리트 저장용기 내부 캐니스터의 뚜껑 용접시, 용접시간 저감과 이에 따른 캐니스터 용접부의 구조적 건전성을 확보하기 위한 방안으로, 정상, 비정상 및 사고조건에서 캐니스터 용접부 균열을 진전시키는 하중에 의해 발생되는 균열 깊이를 분석하여, 용접부의 최대 허용결함깊이를 평가하였다. 정상, 비정상 및 사고조건에서의 구조해석은 범용 유한요소해석 프로그램인 ABAQUS를 사용하였으며, 허용결함깊이는 ASME B&PV Code Section XI에 따라 막응력과 조합하중에 대해 평가하였다. 평가결과 콘크리트 저장용기의 캐니스터 용접부의 허용결함깊이는 18.75 mm로 평가되었으며, 이는 NUREG-1536에서 권고하고 있는 임계결함깊이를 만족하고 있는 것으로 나타났다.
