A collapse event of a cooling tower for secondary cooling system in the Japan Materials Testing Reactor (JMTR) was caused by the strong winds of Typhoon No.15 on September 9, 2019. As measures against the event, the working group for the renewal of the UCL (Utility Cooling Loop) cooling tower was established in the department of JMTR, and the integrity of the UCL cooling tower, which is the same type of wooden cooling tower as the secondary cooling tower in the JMTR, was investigated. As a result of this investigation, we have decided to replace the existing UCL cooling tower with a new cooling system. After investigations, in order to reduce the risk of collapse due to wood decay, the new cooling system was installed as a component of the air system to be managed as a performance maintenance facility after decommissioning. This report describes the design of and the evaluation results of the facility.

The JMTR is a light water moderated and cooled tank-type reactor. First criticality was achieved in March 1968. The refurbishment of JMTR is scheduled from the beginning of FY2007 to the end of FY2010. An investigation on aged components was carried out since the beginning of FY2007. In this paper, the aged-investigations for heat exchangers and tanks in the primary cooling system are presented. The integrity of three heat exchangers was confirmed by the eddy current testing for heat exchanger tubes, visual observation using endoscope, liquid penetration test of tube plates and thickness measurement of the main body. The visual inspection test and liquid penetration test were carried out to confirm the integrity of tanks in the primary cooling system. The heat exchangers and tanks in the primary cooling system will be continuously used in the future operation of the JMTR by appropriate maintenance activities based on the long-term maintenance program.

An integrity investigation was carried out for the JMTR reactor installations, which were the primary cooling system tanks (the surge tank, the degas tank and the purify water tank) and they would be used for the long term after JMTR restart, before the renewal work for the JMTR on FY2007. The visual inspection and the liquid penetrate test (PT) were carried out as the integrity investigation to confirm the integrity of primary cooling system tanks. In order to use the surge tank, the degas tank and the purify water tank continuously for long term, it is important for maintaining the integrity of the surge tank, the degas tank and the purify water tank by the periodical maintenance and the repairing work.

The condition of facilities and components to be used for re-operation of the Japan Materials Testing Reactor (JMTR) from FY2011, was investigated before the refurbishment work. An investigation of aged components (aged-investigation) was carried out for concrete structures of the JMTR reactor building, exhaust stack, trench, canal, filter banks and for aged components of tanks in the primary cooling system, heat exchangers, pipes in the secondary cooling system, cooling tower, emergency generators and so on, in order to identify their integrity. The aged-investigation was carried out from the beginning of FY2007. As a result, cracks of concrete structures such as the exhaust stack, a foundation of the UCL (Utility Cooling Line) elevated water tank were repaired and pipe linings of secondary cooling system were replaced. Motors of primary cooling pumps, pumps in the secondary cooling system and in other systems were decided to replace from viewpoints of future maintenance and improvement of reliability. Other components and the reactor building were decided to use continuously for a long-term by appropriate maintenance activities based on the long-term maintenance plan. In this paper, the aged-investigation for the JMTR reactor building, heat exchangers and emergency generators is presented.

The condition of facilities and machinery used continuously were investigated before the renewal work of JMTR on FY 2007. The subjects of investigation were reactor building, primary cooling system tanks, secondary cooling system piping and tower, emergency generator and so on. As the result, it was confirmed that some facilities and machinery were necessary to repair and others were used continuously for long term by maintaining on the long-term maintenance plan. JMTR is planed to renew by the result of this investigation.

EBISA (Equipment Base Isolation System Analysis) code evaluates the effectiveness of seismic isolation for the important components in the seismic safety, and consists of the three codes, probabilistic seismic hazard code (SHEAT), seismic dynamic response analysis code (RESP) and seismic failure probability and frequency evaluation code. In these codes, RESP code is used for the calculation of the dynamic response behavior of a nuclear component with seismic isolation devices. This report describes the overall explanation of EBISA, and user's guide of RESP code including the analysis function, input manual and sample problem.
