Comprehensive solution of thermal hydraulic issues in fast reactors by utilizing electromagnetic force with active flow control magnet

本研究旨在验证便携式主动流量控制磁体对全面解决钠冷快堆热工水力问题的效果。这项技术利用了电磁力，一般情况下，电磁力对导电流体有负面影响。在科学研究助学金的支持下，利用液态镓作为钠的模拟剂，新建了日本第一个引进的流量测试回路，并通过多种镓流量处理技术验证了其安全运行。

This study aims to prove the effect of portable type of active flow control magnet which would comprehensively solve thermal hydraulic issues in a sodium-cooled fast reactor. This technology utilizes electromagnetic force that negatively affects for conducting fluid in general. During the support by Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research, a flow test loop, which is the firstly introduced loop in Japan, were newly constructed utilizing liquid gallium as the simulant of sodium, and confirmed its safety operation with many handling techniques of the gallium flow.
