Enhancing Nuclear Security: Assessment of In-Service Degradation by BWX Technologies

Overview of In-Service Degradation Assessment

In nuclear power plants, numerous components are prone to degradation during operation or due to abnormal operating conditions. These degradation processes need to be evaluated to ensure continued safe operation, determine necessary repairs before reentering service, or decide on component replacement. Ideally, anticipating in-service degradation through a component's assessment or a comprehensive Life Cycle Management plan allows for the development of generic dispositions or Flaw Handbooks in advance to provide justification during inspections. However, when unexpected degradation occurs, time becomes a critical factor, necessitating a rapid and robust technical justification. BWX Technologies possesses a range of proven capabilities to conduct assessments of various in-service degradations during outage scenarios, often with minimal impact on the overall outage window.
