Summary
Three original blanket fuel bundles from the Zircaloy-2 clad pressurized water reactor (PWR) at the Shippingport Atomic Power Station were discharged after continuous exposure for the entire first core, consisting of one original seed and three seed refuelings, and for the first seed life of the second core. Detailed visual examinations of these components after ~4100 calendar days of operation (41 000 EFPH) revealed only the anticipated uniform gray-tan (post-transition) corrosion products with no evidence of a gross Zircaloy corrosion acceleration; all corrosion films were found to be tightly adherent to the underlying cladding.
