Under the circumstances where the fuel is disposed in the reactor core and the furnace fuel storage tank during the decommissioning measures of "Monju" where the decay heat is at an extremely low level, while preventing the sodium from being frozen by the preheater heater, It is desirable to continue operation of cooling the dissipated heat released into the compartment by ventilating air conditioning equipment. However, the operation of ventilation air conditioning equipment is designed for normal operation of nuclear reactors, and it is necessary to review the proper operation according to the situation at the stage of decommissioning. In this report, we will summarize the relationship between the actual load and the capacity of the ventilating and air conditioning equipment based on the past operation data and report on the status of consideration on rational ventilation air conditioning equipment operation at the decommissioning stage.
