Made of austenitic steel at the NSC KIPT, the supercritical water convection loop Loop-1a was running for more than 500 hours in the first experimental session (in 2011). The materials tested in the loop were placed into a stream of water (more than 50 g/s) at a temperature of 350…400°C, a pressure...
