Corrosion analysis was carried out on twenty iron-plates, which had been dug out at the 6th Yamato ancient tomb (Nara-shi). It was evaluated through the inner-structural analysis by X-ray CT and the XRD and chemical analysis of the rusts that the most iron-plates had been buried in a slightly oxidizing environment and the maximum corrosion depth was 1.6 mm for about 1500 years. The analysis result of the extreme-value data indicates that the maximum depth of an overpack is estimated to be 2.5-2.6 mm. A part of small iron-plates were supposed to have been buried in an oxidizing environment, and about 1 mm-thick rust layers with cavities existed and the corrosion amount was figured out to be about 0.3 mm.

In general, it is difficult to evaluate non-destructively the corroded states of iron-based archaeological remains, as they are fully covered by thick rust formed under ground during a long period over a hundred years. The purpose of this study is to estimate the corrosion amounts of such remains with using X-ray CT and summarize the longevity of iron in soil. It has been clarified that rust and residual metallic iron can be quantitatively divided by this technique. Therefore, it is supposed that the amounts of corrosion can be figured out on the basis of thickness and density of rust. Eight remains dug out at seven relics were analyzed. The burial periods in soil were estimated to be from 1000 to 1500 years. Metallic iron remained in six remains, and the corrosion amounts were figured out to be from 0.5 to 3 mm in these periods. In addition, the soil environments of relics were analyzed, and the relation between corrosion behaviors and environmental factors was discussed. The rust was composed of outer goethite and inner magnetite layers in normally oxidizing conditions. On the other hand, a few samples were buried in slightly oxidizing environments, and these were covered by magnetite single layers. The corrosion amount of remains in such an environment was small compared to the others.

The corrosion behaviors of iron-based archaeological remains, which were dug out in six relics in Aomori-ken and Izumotalsya-keidai-iseki, were analyzed mainly with using X-ray CT. Several samples were cut and investigated on the details of metals and oxide films. The soils were also analyzed on redox-potential, resistance, chemical contents, and others. The results indicate that metal remains in 7/14 samples. The corrosion amounts of objects of Aomori-ken were estimated to be from 1 to 4mm during 400 - 1000 years. The environments were supposed to be oxidizing. On the other hands, it is supposed that two objects in Izumotaisya-keidai-iseki were in a reducing condition. The corrosion amounts were 0.5 - 2 mm. Furthermore, the corrosion behavior of the cast gas-pipe, which had been buried for about 130 years, were evaluated. By analyzing analysis data of soil, the environment is estimated to be weak oxidizing, and the maximum graphitic corrosion depth was about 7mm.

The corrosion of iron-base archaeological artifacts, which were dug out in Iyomai-7 (Chitose-shi, Hokkaido) and Izumo-Ooyashiro-Keidai (Taisha-machi, Shimane-ken) sites, was investigated by using X-ray CT, XRD, atomic absorption spectroscopy and EDX techniques. While the artifacts such as swords in Iyomai-7 site had been buried in the ground for 400-500 years, metallic iron remained in the swords and the corrosion amounts were estimated to be 2-5mm. Several artifacts were investigated among a lot of iron rings and nails buried beside huge pillars of the ancient shrine. Those artifacts had been in ground for 730-750 years. The corrosion amounts were estimated to be 3-5mm. As the both soil environments are supposed to be oxidizing, the outer oxide layers of all speicies are composed of goethite and soil. Further, it was clarified that perfectly corroded ones had hollow structures. In this study, the sampling method of species, the corrosion environmental factors, and the corrosion kinetic models were also evaluated.

For confirming the reasonable DBL(Design Base Leak) on steam generator (SG), it is necessary to evaluate phenomena of sodium-water reaction (SWR) in an actual steam generator realistically. The improvement of a heat transfer model on sodium-water reaction (SWR) jet code (LEAP-JET ver.1.40) and application analysis to the water injection tests for confirmation of propriety for the code were performed. On the improvement of the code, the heat transfer model between a inside fluid and a tube wall was introduced instead of the prior model which was heat capacity model including both heat capacity of the tube wall and inside fluid. And it was considered that the fluid of inside the heat exchange tube was able to treat as water or sodium and typical heat transfer equations used in SG design were also introduced in the new heat transfer model. Further additional work was carried out in order to improve the stability of the calculation for long calculation time. The test calculation using the improved code (LEAP-JET ver.1.50) were carried out with conditions of the SWAT-1R 
Run-HT-2 test. It was cofirmed that the SWR jet behavior on the result and the influence to the result of the heat transfer model were reasonable. And also on the improved code (LEAP-JET ver.1.50), user's manual was revised with additional I/O manual and explanation of the heat transfor model and new variable name.

In general, it is very difficult to evaluate the residual state of metallic iron and the original shape of iron-base archaeological artifacts, as these are covered by thick oxide films formed in the ground during over several hundred years. The purpose of this research is to quantify the corrosion of an artifact such as base, knife, and nail, which was digged out of the relics about 500-1,000 years old. (1)The outer oxide film layer and the inner metallic iron can be quantitatively divided by using X-ray CT method. Furthermore, the original surfaces of artifacts can be estimated from the obtained images, even if the metallic iron has corroded completely. The X-ray CT images were also compared with those obtained by X-ray transmission inspection. (2)The corrosion amounts and rates were evaluated on the basis of thicknesses, densities, and iron concentrations of oxide films. (3)The characteristic differences between ancient iron and modern carbon steel were evaluated by analyzing the ancient iron slag.
