Abstract

발전소 구조재료의 일반부식에서 기인된 부식생성물은 연료 표면에 침적되어 방사화되고, 다시 노외로 방출되어 계통 선량율을 증가시킨다. 본 연구에서는 방사화된 크러드의 생성과정에 대한 이해를 높이고자 연료 크러드의 비방사능 값과 노내 체류시간을 계산하였다. 노내 체류시간 계산시 모핵종이 조사기간 동안 지속적으로 일정한 양만큼 침적되는 것으로 가정하였다. 본 연구에 활용된 연료 크러드 시료는 한울1호기 17차 O/H시 fuel scraping을 통해 채취되었으며, 본 연구를 위해 원소성분 분석과 핵종 분석이 수행되었다. Corrosion products are released to the primary coolant in the corrosion process of structural materials. They are deposited on fuel surfaces and activated on exposure to a neutron flux with formation of radionuclides that can become incorporated into out-of-core surface films. To get a clear understanding of activated crud formation process, the specific activity and core residence time of fuel cruds was calculated as a function of exposure time to the core neutron flux on the assumption that parent nuclide is being deposited continuously. Fuel cruds were sampled in the fuel scraping campaign from Hanul Unit 1 Cycle 17 and analyzed for elemental concentration and radioisotope activity.
