Times Cited Count：2 Percentile：7.05(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)This paper presents significant progress in R&D of key technologies on the water-cooled solid breeder blanket for the ITER-TBM in JAERI. By the improvement of heat treatment process for blanket module fabrication, a fine-grained microstructure of F82H, can be obtained by homogenizing it at 1150 
C followed by normalizing at 930 C after the HIP process. Moreover, a promising bonding process for a tungsten armor and an F82H structural material was developed by using a uniaxial hot compression without any artificial compliant layer. Also, it has been confirmed that a fatigue lifetime correlation, which was developed for ITER divertor, can be applicable for F82H first wall mock-up. As for R&D on a breeder material, Li
TiO
, the effect of compression loads on thermal conductivity of pebble beds has been clarified. JAERI have extensively developed key technologies for ITER-TBM, and now steps up into an engineering R&D stage, where integrated performance of TBM structures will be demonstrated by scalable mock-ups.

Times Cited Count：37 Percentile：75.42(Thermodynamics)Improvement of thermal conductivity of phase change medium would be one of the effective techniques to reduce phase change time in latent heat storage technology. Thermal conductivity would be improved by saturating phase change materials (PCM) in porous metals. Efficiency of effective thermal conductivity on melting time is studied by analyzing melting characteristics of a heat storage circular capsule where porous metal saturated by PCM is inserted. Results show that considerable reduction in melting time was obtained, especially for low conductivity PCMs and for high heat transfer coefficient. Trial estimation of optimum porosity was presented under the conditions of keeping high latent heat capacity and high reduction rate of melting time. Optimum porosity decreases with increase in heat transfer coefficient.

To evaluate the thermal behavior of fuel debris of porous media in PCVs of TEPCO's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station for air cooling, JAEA has developed a numerical simulation method with JUPITER. In this presentation, we report the numerical simulation results of the thermal behavior in the PCV considering three effective thermal conductivity models for fuel debris. The results showed the temperature and the velocity distributions and the heat removal amount from the fuel debris were different for each model. It is important to understand the internal structure of the fuel debris and choose the appropriate effective thermal conductivity model for the analysis of the thermal behavior because the model affects the simulation results.
