- The Kinchin and Pease model for calculating the number of displaced atoms resulting from a fast neutron collision is described briefly and is used to calculate damage rates for iron irradiated in various calculated reactor neutron spectra. It is shown that the results of tension tests on steel specimens irradiated at 150 C in some reactor spectra can be used to determine the importance of energy loss by electronic excitation. The resulting damage function is used to predict the embrittlement of the CALDER HALL reactor pressure vessel steel from the results of accelerated irradiation tests.
