The numerical analysis model for the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code for the design study is developed to evaluate the thermal-hydraulics in the core under the core-plenum interaction (CPI) during the decay heat removal using the dipped type direct heat exchanger (D-DHX). To judge the adequacy of the numerical results for a validation study with the sodium experiment results conducted at PLANDTL-2 facility, the degree of difference (DoD) between the numerical and experimental results must be measured by using the area validation metrics (AVM). Through the examinations, the applicability of the AVM and MAVM based on the p-box method was confirmed.

Times Cited Count：5 Percentile：81.82(Nuclear Science & Technology)Heavy-liquid metals (HLMs), such as lead and lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE), are proposed as primary coolants in accelerator driven systems and next-generation fast reactors. In Europe, the reference systems using HLMs are MYRRHA (LBE) and ALFRED (lead). This article presents an overview of recent experiences and ongoing activities on pool-type and loop-type HLM experiments. Pool tests include the measurement of forced- and natural-circulation flow patterns in several scenarios representative of nominal and decay heat removal conditions. Loop tests are focused on the evaluation of specific components, like mockups of the fuel assembly, control rod and heat exchangers. They involve the measurement of global variables, such as flow rate and pressure difference, and local quantities like temperature, velocity and vibrations. Advanced instrumentation, capable of sustaining high temperatures and corrosion, is necessary for accurate measurements, often in compact geometries. In addition to traditional techniques, other instrumentation based on optical fibers, ultrasonic and electromagnetic methods are discussed.

The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers publishes a revised version of the technical document summarizing fluid measurement techniques. This article is part of the application section, and the main content is an introduction of application examples using advanced thermal-fluid measurement technology that is progressing remarkably. In the chapter "Void Fraction Distribution Measurement", the technology for visualizing and measuring the void fraction distribution with neutron beams for the two-phase flow of gas-liquid flowing inside the instrument is summarized. In the first half, the definition of void fraction, measurement by neutron transmission method, and basic principles of CT imaging technology were explained. In the second half, visualization and measurement results were shown in the order of two-dimensional and two-dimensional time changes of various multiphase flows, and three-dimensional and three-dimensional time changes.

Multi-sensor void probe is efficient to measure the local parameters of two-phase flow such as bubble interface velocity. In general, meniscus due to surface tension is formed and shape of the gas-liquid interface deforms when an object contacts the gas-liquid interface. The deformation of the interface by penetration of the front sensor affects the penetration time of the rear sensor, and as a result, an error can occur in the measurement of the bubble interface velocity. The characteristics of the meniscus formation around the sensor was investigated and the error in the measurement of the interface velocity was evaluated. It was clarified that the size, shape of the sensor and the contact angle of the sensor surface affect the error in interface velocity measurement as well as the interface velocity itself, and no measurement error would occur in air-to-water penetration by using a sensor with a large surface contact angle. A 4-sensor void probe was applied to bubbly flow to measure the bubble interface velocity. The measurement error due to the meniscus also occurred in the actual experimental measurement. It was shown that it is necessary to use only the velocity of the lower surface of the bubble or to make certain appropriate error correction for the velocity of the upper interface of the bubble.

Times Cited Count：19 Percentile：88.42(Geosciences, Multidisciplinary)During three winter seasons from November 2016 to March 2019, 11 gamma-ray glows were detected at a single observation site of our ground-based gamma-ray monitoring network in Kanazawa, Japan. These events are analyzed with observations of an X-band radar network, a ceilometer, a disdrometer, and a weather monitor. All the detected glows were connected to convective high-reflectivity regions of more than 35 dBZ, developed up to an altitude of 
2 km. They were also accompanied by heavy precipitation of graupels. Therefore, graupels in the lower layer of thunderclouds that correspond to high-reflectivity regions can form strong electric fields producing gamma-ray glows. Also, these events are compared with a limited sample of nondetection cases, but no significant differences in meteorological conditions were found between detection and nondetection cases in the present study.

We have developed measurement and analysis techniques in X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. To begin with, time-division depth profiles of gate stacked film interfaces have been achieved by NAP-HARPES (Near Ambient Pressure Hard X-ray Angle-Resolved Photo Emission Spectroscopy) data. We then have promoted our methods to quickly perform peak fittings and depth profiling from time-division ARPES data, which enables us to realize 4D-XPS analysis. It is found that the traditional maximum entropy method (MEM) combined with Jackknife averaging of sparse modeling in NAP-HARPES data is effective to perform dynamic measurement of depth profiles with high precision.
