Abstract

Since 1955, EDF has maintained a constant policy of the systematic inspection of its high temperature piping. As these pipes are made of the same material, the measures taken in many plants are comparable. EDF can now, after 30 years of operation, analyse the availability of its means of measurement, the choice of the materials and of the calculation rules, the accuracy of the measurements, and finally the good behaviour of most of our pipes. Some particular cases of abnormal creep rate have been the subject of a particular study.
