Abstract

The first Japanese standard boiling water reactor (BWR), Unit 2 of Fukushima-Daini nuclear power plant (2F-2; 1100 MW(e)), operated commercially for 10,320 effective full-power hours for its first fuel cycle. During the first fuel cycle period, water chemistry data were collected and evaluated, which suggested a low shutdown dose rate around the primary systems. The estimation was confirmed by the measured dose rate after the scheduled shutdown in January 1985.
