The criticality management of the fuel debris is one of the most important research issues in Japan. The current criticality management adopts the fresh fuel assumption. The adoption of the fresh fuel assumption for the criticality control of the fuel debris is difficult because the k of the fuel debris could exceed 1.0 in most of cases which the fuel debris contains water and does not contain neutron absorbers such as gadolinium. Therefore, the adoption of the burnup credit is considered. The prediction accuracy of the isotopic composition of used nuclear fuel must be required to adopt the burnup credit for the treatment of the fuel debris. JAEA developed a burnup calculation code SWAT4.0 to obtain reference calculation results of the isotopic composition of the used nuclear fuel. This code is used to evaluate the composition of fuel debris. In order to investigate the prediction accuracy of SWAT4.0, we analyzed the PIE of BWR obtained from 2F2DN23.

Times Cited Count:3 Percentile:32.75(Nuclear Science & Technology)The criticality safety of the fuel debris in Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant is one of the most important issues and the adoption of the burnup credit is desired for the criticality analysis. The assay data of used nuclear fuel irradiated in 2F2 is evaluated to validate SWAT4.0 for BWR fuel burnup problem. The calculation results revealed that number density of many heavy nuclides and FPs showed good agreement with the experimental data except for U,
Np,
Pu and Sm isotopes. The cause of the difference is assumption of the initial number density and void ratio and overestimation of the capture cross section of
Np. The C/E-1 values do not depend on the types of fuel rods (UO
or UO
-Gd
O
) and it is similar to that for the PWR fuel. These results indicate that SWAT4.0 appropriately analyzes the isotopic composition of the BWR fuel and it has sufficient accuracy to be adopted in the burnup credit evaluation of the fuel debris.

Eddy current techniques have been tested for future Post irradiated Experiment ;PIE applications outside hot cell(the following, cell outside). As the result, applicability to the defects inspection such as the cladding tube material was able to be confirmed, and an outlook to the application to the irradiation material was obtained. The last time, report described results of the external surface defects, inside defects, and open holes outside hot cell except for Fuel-Cladding Chemical Interaction (FCCI) measurement testing This paper mainly describes the results of the trial FCCI measurement testing outside hot cell. Other tests include the results of external surface defects, inside defects, and open holes in the proofreading tests. The proofreading tests used a standard defect pin inside hot cell. In the trial FCCI measurement testing outside hot cell, the correlation between reduction in thickness and eddy current signal value was comfirmed, and the prospect of FCCI measurement by the eddy current testing was examined. As the result, the optimum conditions for measuring the FCCI quantity are respectively (1)carrier speed of the pin :20mm/sec, (2) test frequency : 32kHz, (3)phase : ODEG, (4) gain :-10dB, (5)filter : 0. The correlation between trial FCCI quantity and eddy current signal value was found on the basis of the test result, and the prospect which could detect FCCI was obtained when there is reduction in thickness of over 50 m for the cladding tube with wall thickness quantity of the 300
m order. And, the proofreading test inside hot cell on eddy current measurements were confirmed to be equivalent to the performance test outside hot cell.

For Broader Approach Activities, which are joint project between Japan and Europe, JAEA who is the Japanese implementing Agency, has established "International Fusion Energy Research Centre (IFERC)" in Rokkasho, Aomori Japan. At research facilities in IFERC, DEMO R&D Building and CSC&REC Building, in which research and development activities are carried out, experimental equipment and components had been installed and in operation until the end of 2011. The outline of those facilities are described in a poster.
