Abstract

The effect of hydrogen content and hydride orientation on the thermal expansion of a 2.5% Nb-Zr alloy at 20–500°C was studied. It was shown that, in calculating stresses in parts made of zirconium alloys it is necessary to take account of changes in the coefficient of thermal expansion and additional dimensional changes associated with variations in the metal volume.
