Abstract

In the event of a loss-of-coolant accident in a nuclear power plant with a pressurized water reactor, interior surfaces of the reactor containment and zinc-coated equipment within containment would be exposed to spray solutions at temperatures up to 425 K (305/degree/F). This paper reports hydrogen evolution rates from zinc metal, galvanized zinc, and zinc-primer-coated steel surfaces immersed in two spray solutions of different compositions representing the spray solutions to be used at TVA's Bellefonte and Yellow Creek Nuclear Plants. 5 refs.
