Abstract

The use of the Charpy specimen along with the Master Curve approach to derive the fracture toughness behavior of reactor pressure vessel steels is investigated. A large experimental program to measure fracture toughness with Charpy size specimens was carried out. It is found that within the experimental and statistical uncertainties, the reference temperature T₀ is not affected by the test temperature, even when data are not valid according to E1921 requirements.
