Abstract

Experimental results for hydrides reorientation in unirradiated E635 guide tubes are presented. The key parameter for reorientation – the threshold stress was found. Some features of microstructure of hydrides with different orientation are discussed. For cooling rates, which are specific for active zones of pressurized water reactors, δ-hydride is shown to be the only phase that occurs.
