Abstract
The movement of hydrogen in two-phase alpha - delta Zircaloy-2 under the influence of a thermal gradient was studied in specimens of cylindrical geometry. A gross displacement of hydrogen toward the cooler regions of the specimen was observed with consequent copious precipitation of delta zirconium (ZrH/sub 1>4/) there. The kinetics of the diffusion are analyzed and discussed. (auth)
