Description

Refurbishment of the Japan Materials Testing Reactor (JMTR), which is recognized as one of important facilities in Japan for safety research, is in progress by the JAEA. In 'Extensive safety research of light-water reactor (LWR) fuels and materials' under a contract with the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency of Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan, the irradiation tests are planned in order to examine integrity of the LWR fuels and structure materials. For the irradiation tests of high burnup fuels and irradiated materials in the JMTR, modification of the hot laboratory facilities are needed, which are (1) preparing of documents books for strengthening JMTR hot-lab. cell-shielding, (2) detailed design of the capsule assembling device, (3) safety analysis for domestic transportation cask, and (4) confirmation test of diamond drill of fuel-rod center-hole processing. This paper summarizes investigation results for the design and manufacture, future on these equipments conducted in FY2008. (author)
