東京電力ホールディングス株式会社福島第一原子力発電所では、2号機から燃料デブリの試験的取り出しを行い、回収物を構外輸送し茨城地区で分析することが計画されている。取り出された燃料デブリの分析結果は、将来的な燃料デブリ管理の各工程(取り出し、収納、移送、保管等)の検討にフィードバックされ、必要な技術開発に活用することが期待されている。試験的取り出しでサンプリングされる燃料デブリは数グラム程度が予定されており、その後、段階的に取り出し規模を拡大させていくことになる。試験的取り出しにおいては、構外輸送に係る関係法令に則って事前に合理的な輸送容器を検討することが必要になる。本報では物質組成や性状が不明瞭な燃料デブリ回収物の安全評価に資するため、少量燃料デブリの構外輸送に向けたA型輸送容器の適用性評価を行った。

Retrieving objects with a small amount of fuel debris, such as a few grams, will begin soon at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (1F) at the start of decommissioning. Objects retrieved from the primary containment vessel are not necessarily fuel debris; fuel debris is an object from which neutrons are emitted because it contains nuclear-fuel material. However, the characteristics of the neutrons emitted by fuel debris are unknown. Fuel debris was categorized into five types according to the elapsed time from the accident, burnup, and fuel type (UO$$_{2}$$ or mixed oxide). The number and energy spectra of ($$alpha$$, ${it n}$) and spontaneous fission neutrons emitted from 1 g of each fuel debris type were estimated using the SOURCES 4C code to obtain the neutron characteristics. The results showed that the average neutron energy is approximately 2.1 MeV, regardless of the type of fuel debris. However, the intensities of neutrons emitted from the fuel debris in 1F Units 2 and 3 varied by four orders of magnitude according to the fuel debris type.

In this paper, we propose a new nuclide inventory estimation method based on computational methods, called a "theoretical scaling factor method" for difficult-to-measure (DTM) nuclides in fuel debris and radioactive wastes. The theoretical scaling factor method provides a method similar to a conventional scaling factor method. The theoretical scaling factor method, however, does not require performing many measurements to obtain correlations between a key nuclide which is easy-to-measure and a DTM nuclide. Instead of actual analytical measurements, the results of theoretical calculations are used. A correlation equation between the key nuclide and the DTM nuclide is created based on the results of theoretical calculations, and the DTM nuclide is deterministically estimated using the measurement value of the key nuclide only. In this paper, we selected Cs-135 as the DTM nuclide and Cs-137 as the key nuclide. Cs-135 has a long half-life of 2.3$$times$$10$$^{6}$$ years and is one of the important fission products in the safety evaluation for the geological disposal of high-level radioactive waste, because it dissolves and migrates in groundwater easily. We confirmed the validity of the proposed method using measured data of Cs-137 and Cs-135 on radioactive wastes from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (1F) accident obtained by many researchers. It can be used as a rational and efficient technology to reduce the analysis costs of various types of fuel debris and radioactive waste present at 1F.

We investigated the possibility of estimating the effective neutron multiplication factor (${it k$_{eff}$}$) of the fuel debris inside the canister and primary containment vessel (PCV) of Unit 2 of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (1F) using remote gas-radioactivity measurement via simulation-based calculations. Our results demonstrate an almost linear correlation between ${it k$_{eff}$}$ and the $$^{88}$$Kr-to-$$^{135}$$Xe activity ratio with respect to various fuel debris compositions. This correlation is maintained regardless of geometries such as the fuel debris canister and the PCV.

The characterization of bremsstrahlung and $$gamma$$-rays from fuel debris differs from that of spent fuels evaluated to date, due to factors such as material composition and release of volatile fission products. In this work, in order to clarify the conditions under which the effect of bremsstrahlung compared to the total photons (bremsstrahlung and $$gamma$$-rays) in fuel debris is maximized, the average energies and dose rates from the energy spectra of bremsstrahlung and $$gamma$$-rays on the fuel debris surface were obtained using a Monte Carlo simulation. In the simulation, the average energies and dose rates were evaluated with consideration of the composition, size, fission product release, and retrieval time of the fuel debris. The simulation showed that the composition with the largest amount of change to the average total photons energy caused by bremsstrahlung was the molten fuel debris, and the composition with the maximum fraction of bremsstrahlung in the dose rate was the UO$$_{2}$$. The maximum value of the fraction of bremsstrahlung in the dose rate was evaluated to be about 17%. This work is expected to contribute to the prediction of the radiation characteristics of the fuel debris that will be retrieved from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station in the near future.

Modification of the Monte Carlo depletion calculation code OpenMC was performed to enable the depletion calculation of the subcritical neutron multiplying system. With the modified code, it became possible to evaluate the quantity of short half-life fission products from spontaneous and induced fissions in the subcritical system. As a preliminary study, it was applied to the fuel debris storage canister filled with nuclear materials and spontaneous fission nuclides. It was confirmed that the code could successfully provide a quantity of short half-life FPs over time and provide the relationship between the activity ratio of Kr-88 to Xe-135 and effective neutron multiplication factor of the canister.

A Prediction method for the dose rate of fuel debris depending on the constituent elements

寺島 顕一; 奥村 啓介

Journal of Advanced Simulation in Science and Engineering (Internet), 8(1), p.73 - 86, 2021/03

In 2021, fuel debris samplings are planned to start as part of a step-by-step process at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station. The dose rate of the fuel debris for safety treatments of the fuel debris should be predicted. However, various elements are mixed in the fuel debris, and thus predicting the dose rate will be challenging. Therefore, we conducted a large number of Monte Carlo radiation transport simulations for cases where parameters such as fuel debris size, composition, and density were significantly changed. Consequently, we obtained a simple and analytical formula that can predict the dose rate using a minimum number of parameters.

Prediction of the fuel debris location and distribution inside the primary containment vessel (PCV) of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant is important to decide further decommissioning step and strategy. The radiation measurements in the past internal investigations have not yet provided enough information to predict fuel debris location and its distribution inside PCV. To support further measurement efforts, we simulate the detector response inside the PCV. The calculation result could provide a base on deciding suitable detector systems to assist the efforts on searching, localizing and defining distributions of the fuel debris.

Determination of fuel debris location and distribution inside primary containment vessel of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station is important to decide further decommissioning step and strategy. We calculate neutron flux produced from fuel debris and secondary particles photon resulted from neutron reaction with nuclides inside fuel debris, including direct photon emission from FPs in fuel debris. Neutron and gamma characteristics resulted from calculation could be use as basis for determination suitable spectrometer system or detector for searching, localizing and treatment of fuel debris.

Thermoelectric technologies are becoming indispensable in the quest for a sustainable future. Recently, an emerging phenomenon, the spin-driven thermoelectric effect (STE), has garnered much attention as a promising path towards low cost and versatile thermoelectric technology with easily scalable manufacturing. However, progress in development of STE devices is hindered by the lack of understanding of the fundamental physics and materials properties responsible for the effect. In such nascent scientific field, data-driven approaches relying on statistics and machine learning, instead of more traditional modeling methods, can exhibit their full potential. Here, we use machine learning modeling to establish the key physical parameters controlling STE. Guided by the models, we have carried out actual material synthesis which led to the identification of a novel STE material with a thermopower an order of magnitude larger than that of the current generation of STE devices.

The electron nematicity, which break rotational symmetry of the crystal lattice, has been recently observed in high-$$T_c$$ superconductors. In iron-pnictides, it has been associated with the tetragonal-to-orthorhombic structural transition at $$T_s$$, and the observations has been limited in the orthorhombic phase or in the tetragonal phase under uniaxial strain. In this investigation we provide magnetic torque measurements, a thermodynamic evidence which clearly shows the development of nematicity well above $$T_s$$ and the persistence in the nonmagnetic superconducting regime. Combined with synchrotron X-ray measurements, our results identify two distinct temperatures-one at $$T^ast$$, signifying a true nematic transition, and the other at $$T_s$$ ($$< T^ast$$), which we show to be not a true phase transition, but rather what we refer to as a "meta-nematic transition", in analogy to the well-known metamagnetic transition in the theory of magnetism.

福島第一原子力発電所(1F)の燃料デブリを検知する手法の1つとして、自発核分裂,誘起核分裂,または($$alpha$$,n)反応に起因する中性子を検出する方法が考えられる。しかし、燃料デブリの性状や適用場所に応じて、バックグラウンドガンマ線や中性子線の強度は大きく変わることが予想され、事前のガンマ線遮蔽の最適化は困難である。バブルディテクー(BD)は、中性子照射により発生する気泡数から中性子積算線量を計測するものであり、ガンマ線に不感,小型,軽量,電源・ケーブル不要,目視確認が可能といった特長を有する。また、極少の中性子線場でも、照射時間を長く設定することにより検出できる可能性がある。そこで、BDの1F現場への適用性を評価するため、BDの中性子照射試験を行い、照射条件に依存した基礎データを取得した。本発表では、本試験で得られた結果を踏まえて、1F現場への適用性について報告する。

原子力機構では、これまでに多種多様な取出し燃料デブリに対する崩壊ガンマ線の特性評価を行ってきたが、$$beta$$線及び制動X線については考慮してこなかった。福島第一原子力発電所(1F)の燃料デブリは、燃料に由来するU, TRU, FP、および構造材に由来するジルカロイ, SUS, ペデスタル内のコンクリートなどと溶融混合し、号機や部位に依存して複雑な組成になっていると考えられている。使用済燃料を対象とする従来のコードはこのような多種多様な組成の燃料デブリから放出される$$beta$$線や制動X線への適用は想定されていない。そこで、$$beta$$線スペクトルの理論式,崩壊データ、および粒子輸送モンテカルロ計算コードPHITSを用いて、燃料デブリの取出し時期,揮発性FP放出,燃料デブリ組成,嵩密度,サイズ等に依存した燃料デブリの$$beta$$線と制動X線の特性評価を行った。

We investigated the possibility of estimating the effective neutron multiplication factor (keff) of the fuel-debris inside the primary containment vessel (PCV) of unit-2 of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (1F) using remote gas-radioactivity measurement. Our calculation result demonstrates the correlation between keff and the activity ratio (AR) of $$^{88}$$Kr-to-$$^{135}$$Xe for various fuel debris compositions and geometry. We also show the time-dependent behavior of the AR of $$^{88}$$Kr-to-$$^{135}$$Xe when the keff changes suddenly in PCV.

Analytical study for detection method of fuel debris derived from MOX fuel

寺島 顕一; 坂本 雅洋; 松村 太伊知; Riyana E. S.; 神野 郁夫; 奥村 啓介

no journal, , 

At the time of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station accident, mixed oxide (MOX) fuels were partially loaded in the core of Unit-3 while not in Unit-1 and Unit-2. Since the MOX fuel contain larger amount of plutonium even if its burnup degree is relatively smaller than that of UO$$_{2}$$ fuel, it is expected to distinguish whether fuel debris are originated from MOX or UO$$_{2}$$. Therefore, we focused on $$^{244}$$Cm and $$^{154}$$Eu generated until the accident. From the burnup calculations, the possibility of a method for detecting the MOX-derived fuel debris was suggested.

Time dependent correlation between the criticality and short-half-life noble-gas fission products of fuel debris

Riyana E. S.; 坂本 雅洋; 松村 太伊知; 寺島 顕一; 奥村 啓介; 神野 郁夫

no journal, , 

The activity ratio of short half-life noble gas fission products, $$^{88}$$Kr to $$^{135}$$Xe (A($$^{88}$$Kr/$$^{135}$$Xe)), has close relationship with the criticality (${it k$_{eff}$}$) in the primary containment vessel (PCV) or fuel debris canister, in which fuel debris are accumulated. In this paper, we investigated the time-dependence of the A($$^{88}$$Kr/$$^{135}$$Xe) when the ${it k$_{eff}$}$ changes according to an incident such as the change of geometry in the PCV. Our calculation shows a slow change of the A($$^{88}$$Kr/$$^{135}$$Xe) value with the maximum or minimum values before settling in a new stable value after several hours from the ${it k$_{eff}$}$ change. The applicability and the suitability of the A($$^{88}$$Kr/$$^{135}$$Xe) time-dependent measurement is discussed for the monitoring of the ${it k$_{eff}$}$ in PCV.

Preliminary study on nuclear materials imaging in fuel debris from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station using a neutron pinhole camera

Information on the quantity of nuclear materials in fuel debris is crucial in screening and categorizing the fuel debris for storage consideration and quantity reduction. However, the types of materials (U, Pu, steel, Zr, concrete, etc.), physical form, chemical form, and density involved in the fuel debris may have a wide variety, and it is difficult to quantify nuclear materials inside it. Since most neutron emitters are actinides (such as U, Pu, and Cm) and non-volatile, the distribution of those neutron sources also represents the distribution of nuclear materials in fuel debris. We propose a method to observe nuclear materials distribution in fuel debris by acquiring spatial distribution of neutron sources using a neutron pinhole camera.

これまでの原子炉格納容器(PCV)内部調査から、福島第一原子力発電所(1F)の1-3号機には、燃料と被覆管等が溶融した後に固化した燃料デブリが存在すると考えられている。2023年には、2号機(1F2)から数g程度の燃料デブリ試料の試験的取り出しが予定されている。燃料デブリの検知において中性子が検出されれば燃料デブリであると推定できるため、燃料デブリから放出される中性子の特性評価を行うことは重要である。そこで、UO$$_{2}$$燃料のみで構成されていた1F2と本格取出し時期での対象とされMOX燃料を部分的に含んでいた3号機(1F3)からの取出し燃料デブリに対する検出器開発や中性子応答の物理的解釈に資するため、1F2(広範囲燃焼度UO$$_{2}$$)、1F3(低燃焼度MOX)、TMI-2(低燃焼度UO$$_{2}$$)の3種類の代表的な燃料デブリモデルに対し、それぞれの燃焼履歴に基づく核種インベントリデータとSOURCES 4Cコードを用いて、燃料デブリから放出される自発核分裂(遅発中性子を含む)と($$alpha$$, n)反応によって放出される中性子の特性評価を行った。
