  • Two MIMAS MaX fuel rods base-irradiated in a commercial PWR have been reinstrumented and irradiated at a test reactor. The fabrication data for two MOX roda are characterized together with base irradiation information. Both Rods were reinstrumented to be fitted with thermocouple to measure centerline temperature of fuel. One rod was equipped with pressure transducer for rod internal pressure whereas the other with cladding elongation detector. The post irradiation examinations for various items were performed to determine fuel and cladding in-pile behavior after base irradiation. By using well characterized fabrication and re-instrumentation data and power history, the fuel performance code, COSMOS, is verified with measured in-pile and PIE information. The COMaS code shows good agreement for the cladding oxidation and creep, and fission gas release when compared with PIE dad a after base irradiaton. Based on the re-instrumention information and power history measured in-pile, the COSMOS predicts re-instrumented in-pile thermal behaviour during power up-ramp and steady operation with acceptable accuracy. The rod internal pressure is also well simulated by COSMOS code. Therfore, with all the other verification by COSMOS code up to now, it can be concluded that COSMOS fuel performance code is applicable for the design and license for MaX fuel rods up to high burnup.

  • A Comprehensive Vibration Assessment Program (CVAP) has been performed for Yonggwang Nuclear Power Plant Unit 4 (YGN 4) in order to verify the structural integrity of the reactor internals for flow induced vibrations prior to commercial operation. The theoretical evidence for the structural integrity of the reactor internals and the basis for measurement and inspection are provided by the analysis. Flow induced hydraulic loads and reactor internals vibration response data were measured during pre-core hot functional testing in YGN 4 site. Also, the critical areas in the reactor internals were inspected visually to check any existence of structural abnormality before and after the pre-core hot functional testing. Then, the measured data have been analyzed and compared with the predicted data by analysis. The measured stresses are less than the predicted values and the allowable limits. It is concluded that the vibration response of the reactor internals due to the flow induced vibration under normal operation is acceptable for long term operation.

  • 환경선량변동을 실시간으로 모니터링하기 위해서 원자력연구소 부지 주변에 온라인 감시시스템이 운영중인데, 현장에 설치된 전리함 검출기에 의해서 측정된 자료는 모뎀을 통해 무선전송방식으로 중앙제어실에 실시간으로 저장된다. 무선 송수신 방식은 전송, 처리 및 저장에 경제적이고 효과적이지만 통신 장애시 현장감시장치에 저장된 백업데이터를 가져오지 못해서 결국 데이터가 손실될 우려가 있다 물론 버퍼에 저장된 선량값을 디스켓 및 다른 off-line으로 복원이 가능하지만 이럴 경우 온라인으로 운영되는 시스템에 과거데이터를 처리해야 하므로 복잡하고 실시간으로 처리 할 수가 없다. 본 연구에서는 기존 감시시스템 중 신호처리 부분과 운영 소프트웨어를 새롭게 개발해서, 현장에 설치된 감시기와 중앙처리 장치의 시각을 매일 자동으로 동기화시키고 이를 이용해서 현장감시장치에 저장된 백업데이터를 자동으로 복원시켰다. 새로 개발된 방식을 이용할 경우 34시간이내에서 통신장애로 수신하지 못한 백업데이터를 자동으로 복원할 수 있고, 복원된 데이터를 현재시각의 데이터와 함께 실시간으로 디스플레이 할 수 있게 하였다.

  • In 1945, atomic bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Approximately 70 000 Koreans are estimated to have been exposed to radiation from atomic bombs at that time. After Korea's Liberation Day, approximately 23 000 of these people returned to Korea. To investigate the long-term health and hereditary effects of atomic bomb exposure on the offspring, cohort studies have been conducted on atomic bomb survivors in Japan. This study is an ongoing cohort study to determine the health status of Korean atomic bomb survivors and investigate whether any health effects were inherited by their offspring. Atomic bomb survivors are defined by the Special Act On the Support for Korean Atomic Bomb Victims, and their offspring are identified by participating atomic bomb survivors. As of 2024, we plan to recruit 1500 atomic bomb survivors and their offspring, including 200 trios with more than 300 people. Questionnaires regarding socio-demographic factors, health behaviors, past medical history, laboratory tests, and pedigree information comprise the data collected to minimize survival bias. For the 200 trios, whole-genome analysis is planned to identify de novo mutations in atomic bomb survivors and to compare the prevalence of de novo mutations with trios in the general population. Active follow-up based on telephone surveys and passive follow-up with linkage to the Korean Red Cross, National Health Insurance Service, death registry, and Korea Central Cancer Registry data are ongoing. By combining pedigree information with the findings of trio-based whole-genome analysis, the results will elucidate the hereditary health effects of atomic bomb exposure.
