In High Temperature Engineering Test Reactor (HTTR) of 30 MW, the generated heat at reactor core is finally dissipated at the air-cooler by way of the heat exchangers of the primary pressurized water cooler and the intermediate heat exchanger. Heat exchangers in main cooling system of HTTR should satisfy two conditions, achievement of reactor coolant outlet temperature 850 C/950 C and removal of reactor generated heat 30 MW. That is, heat exchange performance should be ensured as that in heat exchanger designing. In this report, heat exchange performance for Intermediate heat exchanger (IHX) in main cooling system is evaluated with rise-to-power-up test and in-service operation data. Moreover, the applicability of IHX thermal-hydraulic design method is discussed with comparison of evaluated data with designed value.

HTTR plans a high temperature test operation as the fifth step of the rise-to-power tests to achieve a reactor outlet coolant temperature of 950 degrees centigrade in the 2003 fiscal year. Since HTTR is the first HTGR in Japan which uses coated particle fuel as its fuel and helium gas as its coolant, it is necessary that the plan of the high temperature test operation is based on the previous rise-to-power tests with a thermal power of 30 MW and a reactor outlet coolant temperature at 850 degrees centigrade. During the high temperature test operation, reactor characteristics, reactor performances and reactor operations are confirmed for the safety and stability of operations. This report describes the evaluation result of the safety confirmations of the fuel, the control rods and the intermediate heat exchanger for the high temperature test operation. Also, problems which were identified during the previous operations are shown with their solution methods. Additionally, there is a discussion on the contents of the high temperature test operation. As a result of this study, it is shown that the HTTR can safely achieve a thermal power of 30MW with the reactor outlet coolant temperature at 950 degrees centigrade.
