Lots
Lot 1 Measurement and Metrology Services
£2,000,000
The measurement and metrology services lot covers the adaption or development of measurement systems for application in: • A heavily shielded, irradiated fuel examination facility, where measurements are undertaken directly on irradiated materials out of their storage context. Adaption may require deployment into high radiation environments or may require ad...
Delivery: United Kingdom
Lot 2 Corrosion Science and Electrochemistry
£2,000,000
The principal topic areas of interest in relation to this topic area are listed below and support with experimental works, technique demonstration and modelling are of interest: • Environmentally assisted stress corrosion cracking of irradiated high Ni Austenitic stainless steel (AGR cladding) in pond water • Environmentally assisted stress corrosion crackin...
Delivery: United Kingdom
Lot 3 Materials and Engineering Science
£2,000,000
The focus on this area is to undertake non-active work on simulant materials or undertake modelling of aspects of spent fuels that affect their behaviour in long term storage, although consideration of preparation for disposal is also relevant. Areas of particular interest are: • Migration of water into failed fuel during pond storage. This may include fuel...
Delivery: United Kingdom
Lot 4 Irradiation Facilities and Particle Accelerators
£2,000,000
Access to irradiation facilities is required in relation to three principal requirements: • Understanding the effects of irradiation on materials, particularly in relation to radiolysis effects. Current areas of work are related to high pH aqueous conditions, however irradiation of low humidity air and conditions relevant to disposal are also of interest. •...
