[Technical background of the invention and its problems 1 Generally, the concentration of long half-life fission product nuclides (hereinafter referred to as FP) accumulated in a spent fuel assembly is approximately proportional to the burnup during the irradiation period.

A non-destructive method is to measure the spectrum of gamma rays emitted from spent fuel with a high-resolution gamma ray detector such as a germanium detector, and quantify burnup using the count rate and burnup proportionality of the FP of interest. It is well known as one of the measurement methods. A typical example of such FP is C3137, which has a half-life of 30.2 years.

When applying such a method to nondestructive measurement of spent fuel assemblies to find the average burnup of a spent fuel assembly, each fuel rod in the spent fuel assembly has a different burnup, and Because gamma rays have a directional distribution, gamma rays are measured from four symmetrical directions or from two opposing directions around a spent fuel assembly with a rectangular cross section, and the burnup is calculated from the average value of these count rates.

In the case of a normal spent fuel assembly with a rectangular cross section, the burnup distribution is almost symmetrical in one diagonal direction, so measurements are performed from two opposing directions (usually one corner direction). In the case of spent fuel assemblies that have been placed for a long time in the periphery of the fuel cell, the distribution is not necessarily symmetrical, so measurements must be taken from four directions. In this case, one method is to use one gamma ray spectrum measuring device consisting of a gamma ray collimator and a detector, etc., and to rotate the spent fuel assembly and sequentially perform measurements from each of two or four directions, or to perform multiple gamma ray spectrum measurements. A possible method is to arrange the devices at symmetrical positions across the spent fuel assembly and simultaneously perform measurements from two or four directions.

However, although the former method requires a relatively small installation space for the gamma ray spectrum measuring device, there is a problem in that it requires a long measurement time. Furthermore, although the latter method requires less measurement time, there is a problem in that it requires a large installation space for the gamma ray spectrum measuring device.

Next, the average burnup of the spent fuel assembly 4 is determined using the pre-calibrated correlation between the FP gamma ray intensity and the burnup. Here, when the cooling period after fuel removal is approximately 2 years or more, the cross gamma ray intensity from the spent fuel assembly 4 is mostly contributed by gamma rays from FPs with long half-lives (particularly C3137 and C3134, etc.), and the burnup is approximately proportional to This is described, for example, in US Pat. No. 4,335,466.

The average energy of cross gamma rays is also approximately 0.6.
~0.8 Me V, which is close to the gamma ray energy of Cs137 (0.66 Me V), so that the attenuation of these gamma rays within the spent fuel assembly 4 is approximately equal. Therefore, the cross gamma ray intensity distribution measured from the circumferential direction of the spent fuel assembly 4 is approximately proportional to the gamma ray intensity distribution of C3137.
