Q 2(a) [10 Marks] When a fast breeder reactor shuts down very quickly, the temperature of some of the components drops from 750 °C to 400 °C in a second. Estimate the number of fast shutdowns the reactor can sustain before failure occurs. The coefficient of thermal expansion for the material is 1.2x10-5 1°C and the yield strain at 400°C is 900 micro- strain. The CF law for the materials is: N9.75. Aɛp = 0.13
