In the MK-III performance test, the experimental fast reactor JOYO raised the reactor thermal power gradually with about 20%, 50%, 75%, 90%, and 100% (140MWt), and reached 140MWt which are the full power of a MK-III reactor core on October 28, 2003. Then, continuation operation beyond full power 100 hour was attained. This report summarized the result of power-up test , full power continuation operation test, blower start-up test.The outline is as follows.(1)From the standby state (system temperature of 250degree), the usual power-up operation (an power-up rate ;about 5MWt/20min, a power is held for about 10 minutes every 5MWt) attained the reactor thermal full power (140MWt) gradually on October 28,2004. Moreover, it checked that each part temperature and flow were less than alarm setting values on each power level.(2)The reactor thermal power was made into the parameter, a series of operations about the blower start-up, and the influence which it has on coolant temperature was checked. As a result, the optimal reactor thermal power which starts up the blower from a natural ventilation cooling state was set to about 18 MWt, and the starting procedure was made into the method(order of 1A-2A-1B-2B) which starts four sets of the one blower at a time one by one.(3)It checked that reactor shutdown operation by two control-rod simultaneous insertion at 35MWt, and it could carry out with time margin with a series of sufficient operations of resulting from control rod insertion in the blower shutdown. By adopting this reactor shutdown operation method, operation of an operation stuff was mitigated and it checked that plant characteristics also improved.(4)The reactor full power was reached on November 14. Continuation operation beyond full power 100 hour was attained after that till on November 20, 10:30. The data of each part of a plant was acquired at intervals of 24 hours, and it checked that it was less than an alarm setting value.

The experimental fast reactor JOYO MK-III increased that the reactor thermal power by the factor 1.4. The main intermediate heat exchangers (IHX) and the dump heat exchangers (DHX) were exchanged. And then, the flow rate of the main cooling system, the secondary cooling system were increased. As one of the performance test to confirm that the cooling system which included these switch receptacles has an enough decay heat performance, it did an heat transfer characteristics test and it evaluated a heat balance, the decay heat performance of IHX and DHX.The outline is as follows.(1)It confirmed that the modificated plant had fixed performance by the heat balance of full power.(2)The secondary inlet temperature of B-loop IHX is about 6degree higher out of the cooling system with A-loop. It thinks that this is one because of the difference ( about 2 % ) with the flow rate of the main cooling system in measurement. There was decay heat capacity of the A-loop and the B-loop in the balance, making the flow rate of the main cooling system of the A-loop positive and supposing that the B-loop is a revision flow rate and as for the heat transfer performance of IHX of the A-loop and the B-loop, the approximately equal thing could be confirmed. As a result, as for the overall heat transfer coefficient of IHX, the A-loop was about 125 % of the design value, the B-loop was about 129 % of the design value and it confirmed that two IHX had the performance to be equal and an enough decay heat performance.(3)It made DHX outlet air temperature about 20degree and it calculated DHX outlet air flow from the decay heat capacity from sodium coolant and the DHX outlet air temperature in full power. As a result, DHX could confirm that the decay heat ability to be equivalent to he reactor thermal power in 85 - 90 % of capacities of design value (6,750m$$^{3}$$/min) and an enough decay heat performance.

In the MK-III performance test, the experimental fast reactor JOYO measured the reactor thermal power in each step from a low power to a full power, and calibrated the intermediate range neutron monitors and power range neutron monitors of core instrumentation equipment. This report summarized the result of thermal power calibration.The outline is as follows. (1) We measured the reactor thermal power in each step from a low power to a full power, and calibrated the intermediate range neutron monitors and power range neutron monitors of core instrumentation equipment. Between the power range neutron monitors and the reactor thermal power, it has confirmed from this that there was good linearity. (2) From transition of November 20 [November 14 to] reactor thermal power, and the graphite temperature, although the graphite temperature (83-5,6,7) is rising to about 97 degree, it is mostly saturated in the 6th day after the full power attainment. In addition, thermal power calibration was carried out 4 times within this period. (November 14th, 15th, 16th, 18th) (3) All the errors of the full power measurement at the time of rating are $$pm$$3.42% (=4.8 MWt). It is in the reactor thermal power error used by the thermal design of a MK-III reactor core (3.6%). (4) The compensation coefficient in

Scrutiny based on the convenient evaluation to verify whether we have the place where thermal striping in the pipe confluence part was thought to be a primary factor for the heavy accident or not has been done in JOYO. As the result, the big temperature difference ($$Delta$$Tin) of the simple inner pipe confluence part existed at the inner pipe confluence part of the plugging system in the secondary main and auxiliary cooling system. Therefore, detailed evaluation of thermal striping was needed. With the thermocouples of high response installed, the temperature fluctuation in outer surface of the pipe was measured on the secondary auxiliary plugging system for the reason why the temperature difference ($$Delta$$Tin) was the biggest. And, the temperature fluctuation in inner surface of the pipe and stress occurring in the pipe plate thickness direction was evaluated by means of the temperature fluctuation measurement result and non-linear structure analysis system "FINAS". The above-mentioned evaluation results were as follows. (1)The maximum temperature fluctuation occurring in the pipe was always located from the center of inner pipe confluence to 10mm position of the down-stream side. (2)The maximum temperature fluctuation range was about 33$$^{circ}$$C in outer surface of the pipe. And, controlling frequency of the temperature fluctuation was 0.04Hz and 0.09Hz. (3)Time delay was almost never contained in the temperature fluctuation elements between inner and outer surface of the pipe by dint of analysis results of the heat conduction by "FINAS". And, the big temperature distribution did not occur in the pipe plate thickness direction was confirmed that the big temperature distribution did not occur in the pipe plate thickness direction. (4)The temperature fluctuation in the pipe inner surface and the stress occurring in the pipe plate thickness direction was evaluated by use of result of the temperature fluctuation measurement and the heat conduction ...
