The improved model for cesium (Cs) chemisorption onto stainless steel (SS) in the fission product (FP) chemistry database named ECUME was incorporated into the severe accident (SA) analysis code SAMPSON for the more accurate estimation of Cs distribution within nuclear reactor vessels in the TEPCO's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (1F). The SAMPSON with the improved model was verified based on the analysis results reproducing the experimental results which were subjected to the modeling of Cs chemisorption behavior. Then, the experiment in the facility with the temperature gradient tube to simulate SA conditions such as temperature decrease and aerosol formation was analyzed to confirm availability of the improved model to the analysis of Cs chemisorption onto SS. The SAMPSON with the improved model successfully reproduced the experimental results, which indicates that the improved model and the analytical method such as setting a method of node-junction, models of aerosol formation and the calculation method of saturated CsOH vapor pressure can be applicable to the analysis of Cs chemisorption behavior. As the information on water-solubility of Cs deposits was also prerequisite to estimate the Cs distribution in the 1F because Cs can be transported through aqueous phase after the SA, the water-solubility of chemisorbed Cs compounds was investigated. The chemisorbed compounds on SS304 have been identified to CsFeO$$_{2}$$ at 873 K to 973 K with higher water-solubility, CsFeSiO$$_{4}$$ at 973 K to 1273 K and Cs$$_{2}$$Si$$_{4}$$O$$_{9}$$ at 1073 K to 1273 K with lower water-solubility. From these results, the water-solubility of chemisorbed Cs compounds can be estimated according to the SA analysis conditions such as temperature in the reactor and the CsOH concentration affecting the amount of chemisorbed Cs.

It is essential to grasp the long-term distributions of FP as well as fuel debris all over the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (1F) for safe completion of its decommissioning projects. The fuel debris is going to be removed from the plant under the severe conditions of FP being scattered during major decommissioning work, and then, the decommissioning projects are going to be terminated by storing safely the removed debris as recovered fertile materials or as materials for final radioactive disposal. In order to determine the FP distribution in the plant for the long period from the accident occurrence to the termination of the plant decommissioning, procedures for analyzing multi-term FP behaviors were proposed. The proposed procedures should be improved by applying the FP data measured in the plant and validated based on the feedback data. Then, the accuracy-improved procedures should be applied to estimate FP distribution during each period of the decommissioning projects.

A Numerical simulation method for core internals behavior in severe accident conditions; Chemical reaction analyses in core structures by JUPITER

Yamashita, Susumu; Kino, Chiaki*; Yoshida, Hiroyuki

Proceedings of 2020 International Conference on Nuclear Engineering (ICONE 2020) (Internet), 7 Pages, 2020/08

In order to contribute the improvement of estimation accuracy for severe accident code such as SAMPSON, we have developed the chemical reaction model such as eutectic reaction and oxidation in micro scale, e.g., B$$_{4}$$C-SUS in the control rod blade and UO$$_{2}$$-Zry in fuel rods, and implemented them to the computational fluid dynamics code named JUPITER. And we try to develop the coupled analysis frame work using SAMPSON and JUPITER to decrease uncertainty due to micro scale phenomena which cannot be calculate by severe accident analysis codes. From the preliminary analysis in fuel rod heating analysis by JUPITER using SAMPSON output data, it was revealed that the implemented chemical reaction models work stably and obtain reasonable results.

Nishida, Akemi; Suzuki, Yoshio; Yamada, Tomonori; Kino, Chiaki; Uzawa, Ken*; Miyamura, Hiroko; Kawamura, Takuma; Takemiya, Hiroshi; Nakajima, Norihiro

RIST News, (54), p.33 - 37, 2013/01

Nuclear plants are complicated and huge structures and consist of a large number of parts. To simulate the behavior of such a complicated huge structure, it becomes important the viewpoint as a general system including pre-post-processing. Therefore, the CCSE proposed an approach for assembly structure analysis and implemented a framework of a full-scale 3D vibration simulator for an entire nuclear plant. Until now, we performed numerical experiments using the data of a building and equipment of HTTR, Oarai R&D Center, JAEA, and demonstrated that earthquake response simulation of large-scale structure as an entire nuclear plant was possible so far. In this report, the framework of the full-scale 3D vibration simulator, the assembly structure analysis approach and visualization technology for an evaluation of the results are shown. And finally, an example of application of the simulator for probabilistic risk assessment, PRA, started from 2011, is shown.

Flow analysis around an in-line forced oscillating circular cylinder using IB-method

Kino, Chiaki; Watanabe, Tadashi*; Nishida, Akemi; Takemiya, Hiroshi

Nihon Kikai Gakkai Rombunshu, B, 78(796), p.2113 - 2126, 2012/12

Flow around an in-line forced oscillating circular cylinder was simulated numerically by using OpenFOAM in order to clarify the mechanism of flow induced vibration. Immersed boundary Method is used to solve the moving boundary. Reynolds number is set to 1000 and the reduced velocity is set to the range from 0 to 10. In the first excitation region, it is shown that negative drag force which is a factor for an in-line oscillation of a circular cylinder comes from contacting between high pressure region and a circular cylinder. The present simulation shows that twin vortex has an important role on the contact phenomena. In the second excitation region, it is shown that time averaged lift drag doesn't become zero on some oscillating conditions. It is considered that a cross-flow oscillation comes from the phenomena.

Kino, Chiaki; Tatekawa, Takayuki; Teshima, Naoya; Kim, G.; Suzuki, Yoshio; Araya, Fumimasa; Nishida, Akemi; Takemiya, Hiroshi

Proceedings of Joint International Conference of 7th Supercomputing in Nuclear Application and 3rd Monte Carlo (SNA + MC 2010) (USB Flash Drive), 4 Pages, 2010/10

In the present study, we have developed a new control system for application integration with the fault-tolerant API (FT-API). The system treats an application as a task which consists of one job and multiple file transfer. Firstly, each task designates a computer to submit a job using a scheduler associated to the job. Secondly, all files which are necessary to execute the job are gathered in the computer using FT-API for file transfer. Finally, the job is submitted using FT-API for job execution. If the computer is outage, the task designates a new computer, gathers necessary files and submits a new job. Each scheduler, file transfer and job condition can be flexibly defined in XML. This time, we applied the system to fluid-structure interaction analysis simulation. The result indicates that the system enables a user to easily execute multi-scale and multi-physics simulation using application integration.

We have developed the Atomic Energy Grid InfraStructure (AEGIS) for establishing computational infrastructure for nuclear field. In this R&D we have inherited the knowledge and skills in ITBL Infrastructure developed in the national project ITBL (Information Technology Based Laboratory), which aims at establishment of virtual research environment where supercomputers and data bases are connected by network. Here we have focused on two issues: improvements of safety and usability. For the safety, we have made the authentication mechanism double with both the personal certification and the machine certification. For the usability, we have developed the grid-enabled client API to use grid functions on a user terminal. By those R&Ds, we have successfully contributed to various nuclear researches, such as "full scale 3D vibration simulator for an entire nuclear power plant", "simulation for predicting quake-proof capability of nuclear power plants", and so on.

Tatekawa, Takayuki; Nakajima, Kohei*; Kim, G.; Kino, Chiaki; Teshima, Naoya; Suzuki, Yoshio; Takemiya, Hiroshi

FUJITSU Famirikai Rombunshu (Internet), 19 Pages, 2010/03

We have introduced about the framework to make the integration of large and complicated simulation such as a proof strength simulation of nuclear power plants and a control simulation of nuclear fusion plasma which codes are installed to distributed computers. We able to carry out detailed simulations by integrating various simulation methods with development of simulation technique. However it becomes a burden to control the integration of each simulation code for researchers. We have noticed that the execution scenarios of each code in cooperated simulation are roughly categorized to workflow type, pipeline type, and conditional branch type. Then we have developed the framework in which just write those patterns in a configuration file and achieve the cooperative execution of element codes without substantial modification of simulation codes.

Kino, Chiaki; Suzuki, Yoshio; Miyamura, Hiroko; Takemiya, Hiroshi; Nakajima, Norihiro

Nihon Keisan Kogakkai Rombunshu (Internet), 2009(22), 12 Pages, 2009/11

Scientific Concept Vocabulary (SCV) has been proposed to actualize Cognitive methodology based Data Analysis System: CDAS which supports researchers to analyze large scale data efficiently and comprehensively. In the information model of SCV, all semantic information is related to substantial data and algorisms. Consequently, SCV enables a data analysis system to process semantic information for physics and engineering. Using SCV, it is hoped that CDAS is able to extract semantic information from numerical simulation data. In this paper, the prototype of SCV has been constructed and applied to actual data of numerical simulation in order to confirm the implementability of the system.

Kino, Chiaki; Suzuki, Yoshio; Takemiya, Hiroshi

Proceedings of Asia Simulation Conference 2009 (JSST 2009) (CD-ROM), 7 Pages, 2009/10

We proposed Scientific Concept Vocabulary (SCV) model that is a framework to numerically treat physical meanings in a visualization system. This model enables a system to process numerically concepts and interpret physical meanings. Additionally, we proposed Scientific Perception Frame (SPF) to annotate meaningful information in a readable format to human. In the present paper, we designed vocabularies and applied the visualization system with the annotation method to data from numerical simulation of a nuclear power plant. An object of the numerical simulation is analysis of flow structure for a nuclear power plant. The present result shows that SCV and SPF enables a visualization system with annotation method to interpret physical meanings of its numerical simulation result and displays "break-ups of liquid film" or "a downward trend of average velocity" that is meaningful information from a viewpoint of nuclear power engineering.

Nakajima, Norihiro; Araya, Fumimasa; Nishida, Akemi; Suzuki, Yoshio; Ida, Masato; Yamada, Tomonori; Kushida, Noriyuki; Kim, G.; Kino, Chiaki; Takemiya, Hiroshi

Proceedings of International Symposium on Structures under Earthquake, Impact, and Blast Loading 2008, p.119 - 123, 2008/10

Japan is so said an energy consumption country of the fourth place world, but the energy resources such as petroleum, the natural gas are poor and depend on import for the most, and stable supply becomes a big problem. For the greenhouse gas restraint, the promotion of the energy saving is featured. A nuclear power plant for commerce in Japan has been started in 1966. The supply occupies about 30 percent of the now Japanese electricity generating. Due to the nature of Japan, earthquake proof is an important subject for social infrastructure operation. To encourage its proofing, many approaches have been applied into many infrastructures, not only computational approach. A computational science approach for earthquake proof is suggested with FIESTA(Finite Element Structural analysis for Assembly), a large scale simulation. A methodology is discussed from the point of view of impact and blast loadings. Examples of loadings in the nuclear engineering are introduced.

Concept design of cognitive methodology based data analysis system; Application to seismic analysis using finite element method

Kino, Chiaki; Suzuki, Yoshio; Nishida, Akemi; Kushida, Noriyuki; Hayashi, Sachiko; Nakajima, Norihiro

Nihon Keisan Kogakkai Rombunshu (Internet), 2008(18), 8 Pages, 2008/07

We have conducted research and development of the Cognitive methodology based Data Analysis System (CDAS) which supports researchers to analyze large scale data efficiently and comprehensively. Traditionally, much of data analysis process has been carried out by humans. However, when the scale of data is extremely large, data analysis is beyond the recognition capability of humans. The basic idea of CDAS is that computers execute data analysis instead of humans. In the present study, we showed three necessary functions (Verification and Validation: VV, Data Diagnosis: DD and Synthesis) for the design of CDAS. VV and DD functions are executed on gird computing environment and findings output from these functions are integrated on Synthesis functions. Finally CDAS displayed only useful information to human. We have applied the system to the virtual plant vibration simulator and succeeded in analyzing large scale data reaching to 1TB thoroughly for the first time.

We have conducted research and development of the Cognitive methodology based Data Analysis System (CDAS) which supports researchers to analyze large scale data efficiently and comprehensively. In data analysis, it is important to evaluate the validity of data and judge whether data is meaningful from a scientific viewpoint. Traditionally, the evaluation and judgment have been carried out by humans. However, when the scale of data is extremely large, the evaluation and judgment are beyond the recognition capability of humans. The basic idea of CDAS is that computers execute evaluation and judgment instead of humans. In the present study, we have applied the system to the virtual plant vibration simulator and succeeded in analyzing large scale data reaching to 1TB thoroughly for the first time.
