We are conducting tests to improve the accuracy of setting the radionuclide airborne release fraction (ARF) from the radioactive solution storage tank to the exhaust system, which is used for safety evaluation in the event of a hydrogen explosion accident at a reprocessing facility. In this report, we will summarize the results obtained so far and report on the issues.
