Times Cited Count:2 Percentile:18.02(Nuclear Science & Technology)This paper reports the impact hammer test of the full-scale mock-up of ITER Blanket Remote Handling system (BRHS). Since the BRHS, which is composed of the articulated rail and the vehicle manipulator which travels on the rail deployed in the vacuum vessel, is subjected to the floor response spectrum with 14 G peak at 8 Hz, evaluation of dynamic response of the system is of essential importance. Recently impact hammer testing on the full-scale mock-up of the BRHS was carried out to verify the finite element method seismic analysis and to experimentally obtain the damping ratio of the system. The results showed that the mock-up has a vertical major natural mode with a natural frequency of 7.5 Hz and a damping ratio of 0.5%. While higher structural damping ratios is predicted in a high amplitude excitation such as major earthquake, it was confirmed that the experimental natural major frequencies are in agreement with the major frequencies obtained by elastic dynamic analysis.

-ray Environment of ~250 Gy/hr in International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) requires a full remote maintenance of in-vessel components such as blanket modules. JAEA is carrying out development of radiation hard components for the ITER blanket remote handling system. The current status of the radiation hardness component development is presented.

In general, nuclear fusion device requires remote maintenance system to avoid human access because of -ray emitted from structural material, which is activated by neutron of fusion reaction. The remote maintenance system was first introduced in the Joint European Torus (JET) which was constructed in UK based on international cooperation in Europe. The JET used so-called "Boom type" remote handling system which introduces articulated arm from a port. The arm is supported from the port with canti-levered and therefore the capacity is relatively low: 300 kg in JET. On the contrary, the ITER uses different type of remote handling system. The JT-60SA, which is under construction in Japan, also considers remote maintenance. This paper describes outline of remote maintenance systems for the international fusion experimental reactor, ITER.
