摘要
The results of investigations of the radiation creep of GR-280 graphite under a high compression load (about 15 MPa) after irradiation in a BOR-60 reactor at 520A degrees C to fast-neutron fluence 1.2 center dot 10(22) cm(-2) are presented. It is shown that the fluence dependence of the creep deformation, calculated using the standard relation as the difference of the change in the dimensions of loaded and control samples, is anomalous. The linear thermal expansion coefficients of loaded and control samples are found as functions of the neutron fluence under the same conditions. It is noted that the linear thermal expansion coefficient of the samples irradiated under a load is much higher than that of the control samples. Simmons' theorem is used to take account of the effect of a load on the linear thermal expansion coefficient, and the dimensional changes of graphite exposed to radiation and the dependence of the true creep deformation on the neutron fluence are calculated. It is shown that these dependences are close to linear in the experimental fluence range (0.4-1.2)center dot 10(22) cm(-2).
