In response to the accident at Fukushima Daiichi NPS, the new safety standards for research and test reactor facilities came into force on December 18, 2013. The evaluation of natural disasters and prevention of spread of accidents beyond design basis mainly were enhanced in the standards. We have completed the necessary checks and assessments, and submitted an application for reviewing if JRR-3 complies with the new standards to the Nuclear Regulation Authority on September 26, 2014.

Our working group has started to investigate basic concepts of the new research reactor which foresaw twenty years later. The aim of this project is to build up the design of new multipurpose research reactor which is constructed instead of JRR-3 for utilization of the neutron beam, irradiation, training and so on.

The JRR-3 start-up channels, used for monitoring neutron flux during the start-up procedure, are exchanged periodically. The exchange procedure was reviewed and improved to the JRR-3 start-up channels exchanging manual. Following the manual, exchanging work would be carried out adequately.

JRR-3 uses shell and tube heat exchangers. The secondary coolant flushes into the tubes and the primary coolant flows outside of the tubes. The heat exchangers are cleaned with the ball-cleaning method, which is a method to clean inside of the tubes by passing the sponge balls with secondary coolant. Decline in the performance of heat exchanger could rise temperature of the primary coolant and then influence the safe and stable reactor operation. The effective way of ball-cleaning for JRR-3 heat exchangers is examined based on past cleaning data. The results show the optimal ball size and the way to determine the cleaning time.

In order to sustain safe and stable operation of JRR-3, it is necessary to measure and indicate appropriately the process values such as flow rate of coolant with the process instrumentation facilities of JRR-3. Whenever reactor facilities such as cooling pump or measuring device are maintained or refurbished, the process instrumentation facilities are calibrated with the appropriate criteria established by considering overall accuracy of the facilities. In this report, for all of the safety protection system, a part of the process instrumentation facilities, accuracy of each component and overall accuracy of the system are compiled. Using these date, the process instrumentation facilities would be maintained more effectively and objectively.

On the conversion from aluminide fuel to silicide fuel, burnable absorbers were introduced for decreasing excess reactivity. The burnable absorbers influence reactivity during reactor operation. So, the burning of the burnable absorbers was studied and the influence on reactor operation was made cleared. Furthermore, necessary excess reactivity on beginning of operation cycle and the time limit for restart after unplanned reactor shutdown was calculated. After the conversion, the fuel exchange procedure was changed from the six-batch dispersion procedure to the fuel burn-up management procedure. The previous estimation of fuel burn-up was required for the planning of fuel exchange, so that the estimation was carried out by means of past operation data. Finally, a new fuel exchange procedure was proposed for effective use of fuel elements. The average length of fuel-staying in the core can be increased by two percent on the procedure.

JRR-3 (Japan Research Reactor No.3) has been operated for about 15 years after the modification, without significant troubles by carrying out maintenance such as the preventive maintenance (mainly Time-Based Maintenance: TBM) for the safety-grade equipments and the breakdown maintenance for the non-safety-grade equipments. Recently, numbers of unscheduled shutdowns caused by aging of the non-safety-grade equipment have been increasing, but resources for both maintenances have been decreasing year by year. In such a situation, new JRR-3 maintenance program is studying and reviewed considering safety, reliability and economical. In the evaluation, the maintenance data (i.e. vibration, measurement, etc.) which accumulated on JRR-3 is applied effectively. This report offers the policy on the maintenance review at JRR-3 and the future direction of JRR-3 maintenance programs.

The measurement of neutron flux and boron concentration in the blood during medical irradiation is indispensable in order to evaluate the radiation in boron neutron capture therapy. It is, however, difficult to measure the blood boron concentration during neutron irradiation because access to the patient is limited. Therefore we prospectively investigated the predictability of blood boron concentrations using the data obtained at the first craniotomy after infusion of a low dosage of BSH. When the test could not be carried out, the blood boron concentration during irradiation was also predicted by using the 2-compartment model. If the final boron concentration after the end of the infusion is within 95% confidence interval of the prediction, direct prediction from biexponential fit will reduce the error of blood boron concentrations during irradiation to around 6%. If the final boron concentration at 6 or 9 hours after the end of infusion is out of 95% confidence interval of the prediction, proportional adjustment will reduce error and expected error after adjustment to around 12%.
