Description
Product Description
The nuclear electricity head plate forging is a critical structural aspect placed at the pinnacle of the Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV). It performs a indispensable function in making sure the operational protection of nuclear reactors by:
Sealing the reactor vessel to comprise high-pressure coolant (typically 15–16 MPa)
Isolating radioactive material
Withstanding long-term high-temperature prerequisites (300–350°C)
Due to its safety-critical nature, the fine of the forging technique at once impacts the integrity, longevity, and security of the nuclear reactor. The layout carrier existence of this aspect exceeds 60 years, assembly the stringent necessities of each home and global nuclear regulatory standards.
