3 1. Introduction Better understanding on the characterization of damaged fuel debris is important for the restoration work of Fukushima Daiichi NPS (1F). Especially for the following; Debris Sampling / Removing Works Criticality Safety for the Debris Handling Material Accounting Evaluation of Accident Progression Screening of the Debris Treatment (which provide technical information to judgment of Debris Treatment) Previous knowledge of TMI-2 and severe accident (SA) research works at around the world are very valuable, and we should create countermeasures with international cooperation. This work would devote to the accident management and nuclear safety in the future. 3

5 5 3. Estimation of Fuel Debris Conditions in Fukushima Daiichi NPS Weeping Cherry Blossom Miharu-Taki-Sakura (Miharu-cyo, Fukushima pref.)
6 3.1 Estimation of Damaged Reactor Core in Fukushima Daiichi NPS Damaged reactor core in Fukushima is quite different from TMI-2 Reactor type (BWR) and structures ( materials and configuration ) Accident progression ( and various situations in each units ) Alternative coolant effect ( sea water effect ) Unit 1 (TEPCO estimation) Unit 2,3 (TEPCO estimation) Damaged fuel core in TMI-2 reactor Ref. TEPCO Home Page ( ) Fukushima Daiichi NPP 6
7 3.2 Estimation Scheme for the Damaged Fuel Debris 1. Damaged core conditions will be estimated by SA code. 2. Material phase information of the debris will be obtained by using thermodynamics analyzing. Severe Accident Analyzing Plant Operation Data Estimate cooling water level by neutron monitor Reactor Core Information TMI-2 TMI-2 Analyzing of degradated core conditions by MELCOR etc. Upper plenum Damaged fuel pins Thermodynamic analysis cladding tube Temperatures[Hofmann, et al., NuclTech. Vol. 87, 1989] Thermodynamics Analyzing Information to fabricate simulated fuel debris Simulated fuel debris TMI-2 7
8 8 3.3 Results of reactor core analysis of TMI-2 Sample Temperature Analysis Control Rod Upper support pillar Internal component (stainless steel, inconel ) Upper Debris Layer > 2537 : (U,Zr)O2 (Av. < 1727 ) (2827 : Partially melted) [ Upper Crust ] > 2537 : Melted (U,Zr)O2 Core boring Sample Lower Debris Layer [ Remelted Layer ] > 2537 : Melted (U,Zr)O2 [ Lower Crust ] : Melted Structural Material and Control Rod [ Stubbed Fuel ] < 647 : No Crystallization of Cladding Material > 2537 : Melted (U,Zr)O2 ( 2827 : Partially change of UO2)
9 3.4 Possible impacts on the debris characteristics based on the comparison with TMI-2 Impacts on the core debris Items TMI-2 1F Departure of 1F debris from TMI-2 FP Storage Composition distribution container Structure Spacer grid Channel box Larger amount of zirconium. Fuel Assembly In-vessel structure Accident scheme Control rod Ag-ln-Cd/SS B4C/SS Fuel UO 2 UO 2 MOX Burn-up Lower part of RPV Melting period In-vessel pressure Cooling by sea water 3 months from commercial operation Guide tube only. Eutectic interaction between boron and iron. Distribution of FPs through metals. Change of the debris characteristics due to the difference between the O/M ratio of PuO 2 and UO 2. High burn-up Larger mass of FPs. Control rod drive shaft 1-2 h A few hours? Larger mass inclusions of noble metal FPs in the lower head debris possibly due to larger mass of iron. Possibly, larger amount of molten corium formed and larger amount of FPs was volatilized. Then, highly compacted debris formed. (Radiolysis) >5MPa 0.1-1MPa Pressure is expected to have little impact on the corium metallurgy. - After the melt down The effect of sea water is still unknown. (e.g. Leaching behavior of FPs through the mid to long term storage.) (Corrosion) [Modified version of the original prepared by CRIEPI] 9
10 3.5 Arrangement and deliberation of plant information (e.g. Core Temperature, Amount of Material) <Example of deliberation> Presumption of debris creation process from the trend chart of core temperature (analytical result ) Maximum core temperature K Actual time 3 Around 2000 : dissolution of UO2 by metallic melting material (Zr, Fe, B) In core part, generation of (U, Zr, Fe) oxide and alloy, boride, carbide. Moving of the melting materials to core bottom part. stratification of oxide layer and metallic layer. 2Core temperature rising rate: < 0.5 K/s In vapor rich condition, Zry oxidize to ZrO 2 below the melting temperature. 1IC stopped, 2PCV leak (assumption), 3W/W vent open, 4W/W vent close, 5injection of seawater, 6 expanding PCV leak (assumption) 1 Around 1200 : Surpassing reaction of SUS/B 4 C Zry/SUS around control rod. Zr-Fe metallic compound, Fe-B compound fluidified around 1200, melting material moved core bottom and filled void. Basic specification of Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station (construction permit application abr) Actual state Analogical inference of the composition of the fuel assembly from dimension data of public information such as construction permit application. e.g. UO 2 : Zry : SUS : B 4 C = 61 : 32 : 6 : 0.8 wt% The material composition data of each core part is needed since the properties of the plant materials affect the composition of generated debris. 10
11 3.6 Estimation of in-vessel phase Target:Successive support for the debris removal, storage, treatment and disposal. >> Debris characterization will be referred to the results of severe accident code and estimated as some fluctuations range. Information from SA code Mass change Heating rate Cooling rate Aging temperature Maximum temperature Melting time At a specific location in RPV Temperature Thermodynamic equilibrium Temperature Selection of reactants UO 2 /Zry, UO 2 /ZrO 2, Zry/B 4 C, SUS/B 4 C, Zry/SUS etc Equilibrium reached? Determination of compositions Codes: ー FactSage ー GEMINI ー ThermoCalc Reference on database Minimizing ΔG Mass Quench Time Slow cooling Mass distribution of structural materials Estimation at each location in RPV. It s necessary to note the uncertainty of the SA analysis code. An example of the calculation result J.Nucl.Mat. 414, 23-31(2011) 11

14 4. Characterization on the Debris of Fukushima Daiichi NPS Weeping Cherry Blossom Miharu-Taki-Sakura (Miharu-cyo, Fukushima pref.) 14
15 4.1 Specific phenomena affected to the debris characteristics Long term uncontrolled conditions might generate powder-state debris. Fuel elements might be reached out to the water phase (including sea water contents) Heterogeneous debris would be induced by lower reactor temperature than TMI-2 Particulate and colloid would be generated from heterogeneous UO 2 /ZrO 2 by the partial melting conditions. Insufficient hard crust debris might be formed by low Fe and Ni conditions. Relocation of the molten debris to the bottom of reactor head, might be occurred.
