Failure probability analysis was carried out to estimate the lifetime of the mercury target which will be installed into the JSNS (Japan spallation neutron source) in J-PARC (Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex). The lifetime was estimated as taking loading condition and materials degradation into account. Considered loads imposed on the target vessel were the static stresses due to thermal expansion and static pre-pressure on He-gas and mercury and the dynamic stresses due to the thermally shocked pressure waves generated repeatedly at 25 Hz. Materials used in target vessel will be degraded by the fatigue, neutron and proton irradiation, mercury immersion and pitting damages, etc. The imposed stresses were evaluated through static and dynamic structural analyses. The material-degradations were deduced based on published experimental data. As results, it was quantitatively confirmed that the failure probability for the lifetime expected in the design is very much lower, 10
in the safety hull, meaning that it will be hardly failed during the design lifetime. On the other hand, the beam window of mercury vessel suffered with high-pressure waves exhibits the failure probability of 12%. It was concluded, therefore, that the leaked mercury from the failed area at the beam window is adequately kept in the space between the safety hull and the mercury vessel to detect mercury-leakage sensors.

To estimate the structural integrity of the heavy liquid-metal (Hg) target used in a MW-class neutron scattering facility, static and dynamic stress behaviors due to the incident of a 1MW-pulsed proton beam were analyzed. In the analyses, two-type target containers with semi-cylindrical type and flat type window were used as analytical models of the structural analysis codes LS-DYNA. As a result, it is confirmed that the stress generated by dynamic thermal shock becomes the largest at the center of window, and the flat type window is more advantageous from the structural viewpoint than the semi-cylindrical type window. It was confirmed to erosion damage the target container by mercury's becoming negative pressure in the window and generating the cavitation by the experiment. Therefore, it has been understood that the point top of the window was in the compression stress field by the steady state thermal stress because of the evaluation from destroying the dynamic viewpoint for the crack in the generated pit and the pit point, and the crack did not progress.

1MW pulsed spallation neutron source using a mercury target will be constructed in order to produce high-intensity neutrons for use in the fields of life and material sciences. The mercury target is proposed using a high-energy (3.0GeV) proton beam with a current of 0.333mA and operating at 25 Hz with a pulse duration less than 1
s. A cross flow type (CFT) mercury target has been designed in order to distribute mercury flow according to an axial heat generation distribution caused by spallation reaction, based on the thermal hydraulic analytical results of 3GeV, 1MW proton beam injection by using the STAR-CD code. This paper presents the final CFD analytical results. In the analysis, an inlet temperature of 50
C and an inlet mercury velocity of 1.0m/s were assumed. As results, a maximum velocity of 2.48m/s was observed near the front end of the outlet plenum and a maximum of 125.5C was observed near the beam window where the volumetric heat generation rate was relatively large. The maximum temperature is far below the mercury saturation temperature of 356C under atmospheric pressure. This result satisfied the thermal-hydraulic design criteria of "Maximum mercury temperature in the target shall be less than 300C".
