Description

The University of Birmingham invites tenders for supply of An Aqueous Mechanical and Corrosion Testing Loop with in-situ Irradiation Capability. The University operates an MC40 Cyclotron and a neutron beam facility is currently being built. The MC40 Cyclotron can produce the proton beam energies in the range of 3~38 MeV.
To support the nuclear research in the UK, the University has been awarded a project by EPSRC to develop a system which will enable the mechanical testing of materials under aqueous environment relevant to the current and future nuclear reactor applications, and with the capability of in-situ irradiation.
In summary, the aqueous system needs to enable the stress corrosion cracking experiments in the normal PWR conditions and also super-critical water conditions, with and without proton and/or neutron irradiation.
