By the nuclear disaster of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (FDNPS), Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake and the following tsunami on March 11, 2011, a large amount of radioactive material was released from the NPS. After the nuclear disaster, airborne radiation monitoring using manned helicopter was conducted around FDNPS. We have carried out the background monitoring around the nuclear power stations of the whole country to apply the airborne radiation monitoring technique that has been cultivated in Fukushima against nuclear emergency response. The results of monitoring around Tomari, Kashiwazaki-Kariwa and Genkai Nuclear Power Station in the fiscal 2017 were summarized in this report. In addition, technical issues were described.

The proton linac installed in the Ibaraki Neutron Medical Research Center is used for production of the intense neutron flux for the Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT). The linac consists of the 3-MeV RFQ and the 8-MeV DTL. Design average beam current is 10mA. Target is made of Beryllium. First neutron production from the Beryllium target was observed at the end of 2015 with the low intensity beam as a demonstration. After the observation of neutron production, a lot of improvement s was carried out in order to increase the proton beam intensity for the real beam commissioning. The beam commissioning has been started on May 2016. The status of the commissioning is summarized in this report.

The purpose of the control rod drive mechanism seating position detector for JRR-3 is one of a method for confirming the shutdown condition of the reactor. The detector has been utilizing more than 25 years with maintenance regularly. However, it is occurred some trouble recently. Moreover, the detector has already been end of manufacture, and even in the successor detector, it unsuitable for the control rod drive mechanism of JRR-3 was confirmed. Therefore, it was necessary to select the adequate detector to the control rod drive mechanism of JRR-3. Accordingly, we built a test device with the aim of verify several detectors for integrity and function. At the time of the test for performance confirmation, it was occurred unexpected problems. Nevertheless, we devise improvement of the problems and took measures. Thus we were able to collect adequate detector for JRR-3 and replace to enhanced detector. This paper reports the Enhanced of Control rod drive mechanism seat position detector.

The power supply for reactor control rod magnet of JRR-3 has been utilized for generating electromagnetic power of control rod coil and that was using more than 25 years. The power supply was required for provide to stabilize DC current. Therefore, we adopted series regulator method. Although, the power supply generate a high heat. Then, we decided to create switching regulator method in order to improve the aging and heat generation of the series regulator method. This paper reports the replacement of switching regulator method.

JRR-3 has been utilized for various researches such as neutron irradiation experiment, neutron beam experiment and so on as a high performance research reactor with thermal power of 20 MW since the first criticality in March, 1990. Process data needed for JRR-3 operation such as temperatures, pressures, and flow rates, etc. had been processed by JRR-3 process computer system which consisted of several computer systems and several application softwares. The system needed complicated data administration and conservation. Also there was a problem in the administration of recording data. Data discrepancy among computers used in the system was taken place since the system was not so designed as to synchronize the process timing among the computers. Therefore, we developed a program to synchronize among all of the computers. This paper reports the development of data processing computer system.

Graphite structures are used as one of the HTTR core internal structures. Graphite structures have high heat resistant property but its mechanical strength degrades easily by oxidization. To prevent the oxidization of graphite structures, impurity concentrations in the coolant of helium are controlled strictly. The helium sampling system is installed to measure the impurity concentrations in the helium. At gas compressor in helium sampling system, seal-oil leak at rod seal mechanism was occurred. The causes are degradation of seal material and contaminant abrasion powder of grand-packing. As these countermeasure, material of seal material was changed and contaminant was decreased. As the result long term operation is enabled. Moreover, reliable data can be obtained and efficient impurity control is enabled due to renewal of data acquisition control computer of gas chromatograph mass spectrometer and improvement of liquid nitrogen trap.
