Low Attack Rates Observed in Toroid Tests with 28 Micron 1600 C Fired ThO2 Spheres (open access)

Results of previous toroid tests with 28 micro 1600 fired ThO2 spheres are analyzed. Four possible explanations for the essentially zero attack rates are offered and discussed: peculiar motion of toroids or some unknown wall effect; rotational hydrodynamic forces cushioning the particle impact; the bed was not in suspension and not sliding over the walls of the toroid; round particles are not as erosive to oxide film surface as sharp pointed particles.
