Times Cited Count:2 Percentile:21.58(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)To evaluate the effect of each constituent element on the evaporation rate of ruthenium (Ru) from fission-produced alloy precipitates, the oxidation and evaporation behaviors of metallic Ru, molybdenum (Mo), palladium (Pd), rhodium (Rh) and Mo-Ru-Pd-Rh alloy powders were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis under oxidizing atmospheres from 1473 to 1723 K. The findings led to the following conclusions: (1) The quick oxidation of Mo into condensed Mo oxides can effectively suppress the oxidation and evaporation of Ru in alloy powders; (2) After the complete evaporation of Mo, the evaporation loss rate of Ru would be directly influenced by the Ru activity in the Ru-Pd-Rh alloys, which is determined by the composition of alloys.

JAEA performed decontamination experiments at two test sites that combined a range of buildings and different types of land use, located in Date and Minami Soma municipalities as field pilot projects in order to accumulate knowledge and data for full-scale decontamination activities performed by local governments. In the pilot projects, we established its plan using practical decontamination methods that can be easily implemented, according to decontamination targets (e.g., forests, agricultural land, residential house and roads) at each site. As a result of the decontamination, the average air dose rates were reduced to approximately one half of the values before decontamination.

A series of tests has been conducted to obtain gas-liquid equilibrium partition coefficient Kd of volatile fission products such as cesium,iodine,and tellurium in sodium. In the test a sodium pool mixed with an FP simulant was heated by an electric furnace and the solvent of trapped vapors by filters was quantitatively analyzed. The results are,(1)Cs shows the highest Kd (20-100), (2)Kd of iodine scatters as wide as 0.02-0.5at 450and 0.3-0.8 at 650,(3)the Kd values of Cs and I agree well with the theoretical ones reported by Castleman et al., and (4)if a sodium-telluride which is hard to vaporize than pure Te is assumed, measured Kd of Te agrees with that theoretical.

A series of tests was conducted to studythe mechanical release of non-volatile fission products during sodium-concrete reaction,in which hydrodynamic break-up by the hydrogen bubble bursting is predominant at the sodium pool surface. In thetests,non-radioactive materials,namely strontium oxide,europium oxide,and ruthenium particles whose sizes ranged from some microns to several tens of microns,were used as simulated non-volatile fission products. The following results were obtained from the present study: (1) The sodium aerosol release rate during the sodium-concrete reaction was larger than that of natural evaporation. The difference,however,became smaller with the increase in the sodium temperature; nearly 10 times at 400 C and 3 times at 700 C. (2) Retention factors of these non-volatile materials in sodium pool increased inthe range of 0.5 to the fourth power of10 with the increase in the sodium temperature from 400 C to 700 C

Using sodium from 180kg to 3 metric tons, a series of tests has been conducted to develop the fire mitigation system and to study a design basis sodium leak accident and its consequences in the auxiliary building of the fast breeder reactor. In the test, flow pattern of a realistic leak from the sodium piping was investigated at first. Combustions of sodium in an open pool and a pool with a reduced opening were also studied together with combustion and flow of a sodium on an inclined steel liner and in a drain piping. Transient thermal conduction of a steel lined floor concrete during a sodium leak was tested and evaluated. In next, based on the results obtained, a fire mitigation system was developed and was mounted in a two storied concrete test rig. Then, a large scale test starting from a leak and ending by a self-extinguishment of a fire in the smothering tank was carried out. In final, consequences of sodium aerosols deposition on the reactor components and the electrical instruments have been experimentally studied.

Post-test calculations of the large-scale sodium leak demonstration test, Run-D2, were performed using the ASSCOPS code in order to validate the applicability of the code to the evaluation of the fire suppression function of the PNC-type smothering tank. In the analysis, radiation coefficients between aerosols in the gas phase and structures and a pool surface in the smothering tank defined in the code were varied as parameter. The following three cases were calculated. (a)No aerosols suspending was assumed in the gas phase and thus, 1.0 was used as the coefficient between the structures and the pool surface. (b)The coefficient between the aerosols and the pool surface was 0.65, and that between structures and the aerosols was 0.73. (c)The coefficient between the aerosols and the pool surface was the same as case (b) and 0.5 was used as that between structures and the aerosols. The comparison between analysis and experiment with regard to the temperature of the various parts showed that the agreement was within +30% and -20%. From these results, it was concluded that the code was available for the evaluation of the fire suppression function of the smothering tank.

Flow pattern of a realistic sodium leak from the sodium piping equipped with jackets and thermal insulator was experimentally investigated. Then, based on this result, the fire mitigation system consisting of an inclined liner, a drain piping, and a smothering tank has been developed. The performance of the system was, in final, validated in the large-scale sodium leak and fire test in the SAPFIRE facility.

Since sodium leak and fire researches have been performed at high-temperatures simulating an accident during the rated reactor operation knowledge of sodium leak and fire at low-temperatures which may happen at Ex-vessel Storage Tank or during the partial power operation of the reactor was very li,ited. Therefore, the present test was carried out to clarify the ignition temperatures and the temperature at which aerosol starts to release during sodium spray, column, and pool fires. Sodium spray and column tests were conducted at Sodiu Fire Test Rig (SOFT-1), while sodium pool test was carried out at Sodium Leak Fire and Aerosol Test Rig (SOLFA-1). The following test results were obtained from these tests. (1)Sodium Spray Test. The ignition temperature was 160C depending upon the droplet diameter of sprayed sodium. (2)Sodium Column Test. (a)Sodium main flow did not ignite, while the scattered sodium droplets ignited. (b)The ignition temperature of the main flow rebounded on a pan was 180C. (c)The ignition temperature of deposits on a pan was 160 C. (3)Sodium Pool Test. (a)The ignition temperature of the static pool ranged from 280 to 315C. (b)Temperature at which aerosol starts to release was determined to be 140 to 160C by visual in spection. (c)After extinguished artificially by closing a lid, sodium reignited at temperatures higher than 80 C when the lid was reopend.
