Begun in 1973, the Review of Progress in Quantitative Nondestructive Evaluation (QNDE) is the premier international NDE meeting designed to provide an interface between research and early engineering through the presentation of current ideas and results focused on facilitating a rapid transfer to engineering development.
This site provides free, public access to papers presented at the annual QNDE conference between 1983 and 1999, and abstracts for papers presented at the conference since 2001.

Abstract
For PWR power plants, the steam generator (SG) provides a dynamic link between the reactor and the turbine generator. A steam generator typically consists of Inconel tubes anchored at intervals with stainless steel support plates. The primary coolant from the nuclear reactor circulates through these tubes. Heat, transferred to the secondary coolant by conduction through the tube wall, generating steam which is used for running the turbine.
