The book, JSME Series in Thermal and Nuclear Power Generation Vol.3 Sodium-cooled Fast Reactor, was published as a 30th anniversary memorial project of Power & Energy Systems Division. The book is a collection of the past experience of design, construction, and operation of the experimental reactor “Joyo” and the prototype reactor “Monju”, the latest knowledge including related research and development activities and technology for SFR designs, and the future prospects of SFR development in Japan, looking back the history of development of fast reactors started in the early 1960s. The development of sodium-cooled fast reactor in Japan, which contributes to energy security and high-level waste reduction, is reaching to the stage where demonstration reactor will be deployed based on the experience of “Joyo” and “Monju” design, construction and operation. The present report introduces outlines of experiences, results and activities accumulated through these reactors and R&Ds for demonstration reactor.
