Evaluation of MONJU core damage risk due to control rod function failure

Sotsu, Masutake ; Kurisaka, Kenichi

The limiting conditions of operation defined in the safety regulations for MONJU given the allowed outage time were evaluated by a probabilistic safety assessment technique in our previous study. This paper describes a method to assess the validity of the 24 h allowable time in view of core damage risk, it is necessary to analyze the conditions to be changed when a stuck rod is discovered. The results showed that the timeframe defined in the present safety regulations was concluded to be appropriate.
