Abstract
This paper presents the results of study on radiation degradation occurring in WWER-440 reactor pressure vessel (RPV) steel, using subsize impact specimens (5×5×27.5 mm 3). The results of testing trepans and templates cut out from WWER-440 reactor pressure vessels are considered. Ductile-to-brittle transition temperatures (DBTT) obtained using standard Charpy and subsize impact specimens are compared. The relation between these two values is established.
