Experimental evaluation of cold spray FeCrAl alloys coated zirconium-alloy for potential accident tolerant fuel cladding

Two FeCrAl alloy coatings with different Cr and Al contents were deposited on Zr-alloy substrates via the cold spray deposition method to study the efficacy of these coatings to improve the accident tolerance of Zr-alloy fuel cladding in light water reactors (LWRs). First, the coatings were tested i...
