Development of irradiation capsules with adjusting neutron spectrum

Fuyushima, Takumi; Takabe, Yugo; Sayato, Natsuki; Kimura, Akihiro; Takemoto, Noriyuki

The IV International Scientific Forum "Nuclear Science and Technologies"; AIP Conference Proceedings 3020, p.040007_1 - 040007_6, 2024/01

We studied irradiation tests of structural materials simulating fast reactor conditions in JMTR. We fabricated capsules that can simulate fast reactor irradiation in JMTR by using He/dpa ratio as index. To simulate fast reactor, cadmium, which shield thermal neutrons, was placed inside the capsule to adjust the neutron spectrum. According to the result of irradiation tests by neutron spectrum adjusting capsule, we confirmed that it can simulate the He/dpa ratio of fast reactor. Currently, since it is impossible to conduct irradiation tests in Japan, a plan is underway to partly replace the irradiation function of JMTR with overseas reactors. The alternative irradiation will be carried out by succeeding and developing the irradiation technology accumulated in the JMTR, and as a part of this, a trial of such irradiation in which the neutron spectrum is adjusted is under consideration.

Because of the decommission of the Japan Materials Testing Reactor (JMTR), the domestic neutron irradiation facility, which had played a central role in the development of innovative nuclear reactors and the development of technologies to further improve the safety, reliability, and efficiency of light water reactors, was lost. Therefore, it has become difficult to pass on the operation techniques of the irradiation test reactors and irradiation technologies, and to train human resources. In order to cope with these issues, we conducted a study on the implementation of irradiation tests using overseas reactors as neutron irradiation sites as an alternative method. Based on the "Arrangement between the National Centre for Nuclear Research and the Japan Atomic Energy Agency for Cooperation in Research and Development on Testing Reactor," the feasibility of conducting an irradiation test at the MARIA reactor (30 MW) owned by the National Centre for Nuclear Research (NCBJ) using the temperature control system, which is one of the JMTR irradiation technologies, was examined. As a result, it was found that the irradiation test was possible by modifying the ready-made capsule manufactured in accordance with the design and manufacturing standards of the JMTR. After the modification, a penetration test, an insulation continuity test, and an operation test in the range of room temperature to 300$$^{circ}$$C, which is the operating temperature of the capsule, were conducted and favorable results were obtained. We have completed the preparations prior to transport to the MARIA reactor.

When the roof of the JMTR Hot Laboratory (HL) building was repaired for rain leaks in January, 2015, thinning was found at one of the anchor bolts on base of the HL exhaust stack. Moreover, the thinning of some anchor bolts and gaps between the anchor bolt nuts and flange plate was found in the later investigation for the exhaust stack. Since the possibility of the exhaust stack collapsing cannot be denied, it was removed. Therefore, it became necessary to rebuild a new exhaust stack as soon as possible. The design of the new exhaust stack was based on the measures to prevent rainwater intrusion into the base, which was the cause of the thinning of the anchor bolts found in the investigation, and on the new regulatory standards established after the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. Furthermore, since the new exhaust stack corresponds to buildings and structures that must undergo building confirmation, the soundness of the new exhaust stack against seismic force and wind load was evaluated based on the Building Standards Law and the Stack Structure Design Guideline. This report described the basic design of the new exhaust stack.
