Effect of Irradiation on Terminal Solid Solubility of Hydrogen in Zr-2.5Nb
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Knowledge of the temperature dependence of hydrogen solubility is used to define the conditions necessary for brittle hydrides to be present in reactor components during service. The terminal solid solubility (TSS) of hydrogen is affected by several factors, including irradiation, cold work, and decomposition of the β phase in Zr-2.5Nb. TSS temperatures for specimens irradiated in Osiris, Halden, and CANDU® reactors are reported. TSS was measured on Zr-2.5Nb specimens using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to complete four heat-up/cool-down cycles (heat to a peak temperature and cool to room temperature at a rate of 10°C/min) followed by a 1-h anneal at 500°C, and then four more heat-up/cool-down cycles. As with Zircaloy, irradiation slightly decreases the TSS temperatures, but subsequent annealing increases them. These changes are attributed to an initial effect of irradiation damage and reconstitution of the β phase and reversal of these effects by annealing, as indicated by X-ray diffraction data showing reduced dislocation density and higher β-phase volume fraction after the specimens were annealed.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
