Abstract

PHE (Process Heat Exchanger) is a key component in transferring the high temperature heat generated from a VHTR (Very High Temperature Reactor) to the chemical reaction for massive production of hydrogen. A performance test on a small-scale PHE prototype made of Hastelloy-X is currently undergoing in a small-scale gas loop at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute. Previous researches on the high-temperature structural analysis of the small-scale PHE prototype had been performed using parent material properties over the whole region. In this study, high-temperature elastic structural analysis considering mechanical properties in the weld zone was performed and the analysis result was compared with previous researches.
