Abstract:
In order to investigate the tritium behaviors in Hastelloy N alloy in molten salt reactor,first-principles calculations are used to study the interaction between hydrogen and 4d transition metal alloying atom in nickelbased alloy.The interaction energies between 4d elements and H are calculated.Atomic size effects and electron distribution effects are analyzed.The hydrogen-4d interactions are compared with the hydrogen-3d interactions calculated in our previous work.
