シリサイド燃料の過渡ふるまい-冷水導入による反応度付加

Transient behavior of silicide fuel-reactivity insertion by cold coolant induction

柳澤 和章

JMTRシリサイド燃料(密度$$rho$$=4.8g/cc)を模擬した小型板状燃料を用い、運転時の異常な過渡変化に含まれる事象のうち「冷水導入による反応度付加」に関する炉内実験を実施した。JMTR安全審査評価値(EURECA計算コードで実施)では燃料被覆材最高温度は53$$^{circ}$$Cとしているが、実験ではその約2倍近くの111$$^{circ}$$Cにした。実験後に実施された照射後試験の結果によれば、燃料板は非破損であった。この実験的事実から、JMTRシリサイド燃料は冷水導入による反応度付加に対して安全余裕を持っていることが判明した。

By using a mini-plate fuel (density 4.8g/cc) fabricated as a simulation of JMTR silicide fuel plate, an in-core irradiation test postulating a reactivity insertion by cold coolant induction was performed. The test is known as an abnormal transient phenomenon to be caused during JMTR operation. Taking into account that the peak cladding surface temperature predicted by EURECA computer code for JMTR safety evaluation is 53 $$^{circ}$$C in maximum, more severe condition is imposed on in-core tested mini-plate fuel, where a peak cladding surface temperature is as high as 111 $$^{circ}$$C. It is revealed from post-irradiation examination that the tested mini-plate fuel was intact. From this experimental fact, it is found that JMTR silicide fuel plate has a safety margin against a reactivity insertion by cold coolant induction.
