Abstract

In implementing an induction heating stress improvement (IHSI) method in a nuclear plant, cooling characteristic with respect to the inner surface of piping is improved by appropriate structure/layout of nozzles, and further, the cooling effect when applying IHSI to a real machine is verified by installing a thermometer, as well as air in the portion subjected to IHSI is removed by heating the piping prior to the execution of IHSI.
