Abstract: Authors are studying the Actinide Recycle Fast Breeder Reactor (named ARFBR in this paper), which contribute to the reduction of burdens to environments and to enhance the capability to prevent the nuclear proliferation as the entire nuclear recycle system (named Advanced Fuel Recycling FBR system (AFRFS) in this paper), and also investigating the ARTR for developing the ARFBR. The investigation of the ARTR consists of the design study of the ARTR and R\&Ds of key technology existing in ARTR concept. The conceptual design study of the ARTR is planed to be conducted for 2 years from 1995 to 1996 as first stage. 1995's design study have been performed with drawing over all plant concept with supposing various tests in reactor and usage of reactor. Followings are distinctive feature of 1995's design study. (1)Maximum reactor power is 400MWt with about 1.6m diameter irradiation (burning) cores, which are designed to be operated up to 150GWd/t as average burn up. Maximum core diameter is about 2.5m for low power nuclear physics tests which are designed to be able to estimate characteristics of large scale core by using the test results. (2)Mixed oxide (MOX) and Mixed nitride (MN) core is designed respectively to be able to be used for static nuclear physics test, for nuclear and thermal transient test, and for full power irradiation or burning test. Each core is designed to terminate ATWS events passively, with using GEM for MOX core and with using spectral adjustment for MN core. (3)Fuel assembly is employed ductless type which is a promising candidate for the ARFBR. Sizing of a fuel assembly is determined in basis on MOX fuel design because MOX fuel pin length covers MN fuel pin which accommodates lesser FP gases because of its lower temperature. Fuel assembly is managed to be held by hydraulic force in case of freeing mechanical stopper by requirement of testability. (4)Reactor assembly is designed based on so called Head Access Loop Type Reactor. Main changes ...
