Description

It has been studied for safety plant test to demonstrate inherent safety of FBR core in JOYO. As a part of this study investigation of feedback reactivity was studied. And analysis code which can estimate the reactivity of core-bowing has been prepared. In post irradiation examination, remain bowing displacement of sub-assembly can only be measured, so development of measuring system of displacement of sub-assembly under operation is expected to improve estimation of core-bowing reactivity. It is supposed that an on-line measurement system of displacement of the top of sub-assembly using super sonic sensor under operation is an effective means. In this report, development of measurement of displacement of the top of sub-assembly using super sonic sensor was settled as follows. Characteristic test of heat-resistant super sonic sensor, Design of adjustment device of super sonic sensor, Examination of in-water test for estimation of temperature fluctuation. (author)
