Illuminating the future of overlay protection for nuclear power plant

摘要

1. Comparison of LASER cladding with that of arc and resistance cladding for large-scale corrosion protection in nuclear manufacturing 2. Novel powder jet 45 mm wide nozzle for LASER cladding presented 3. Deposition rates of 10.8 kg/h and 8.1 kg/h for IN82 and 308L powders respectively, with a coverage rate of 1 m2/h 4. LASER cladding achieves high quality clads with competitive coverage rates and reduced heat input.
