Coolant water injection system of reactor1 has a trouble / Reactor1 might lose the coolant system suddenly
Note : Thank you for reading Fukushima Diary. Fukushima Diary is genuinely supported by your donationMonthly recurring donation is also appreciated. One of the two coolant water injection
Tepco decreased Nitrogen gas injection to reactor1 → (26 hours later) reactor temperature rose up by 8℃
For some reason, reactor1 gets heated up once Tepco stops nitrogen gas injection. In order to purge hydrogen gas that may cause hydrogen gas explosion, Tepco is injecting nitrogen gas
11 m3 of nitrogen gas discharged from reactor1 and 2 every hour
“Steam” is repeatedly observed coming up from the top of reactor3. This July Tepco suggested it may be the Nitrogen gas injected to reactor3. (cf, [Steaming reactor3] Tepco “The steam

Tepco to finally investigate why reactor1 temperature goes up when they stop nitrogen gas injection
Tepco is finally going to investigate the connection between the nitrogen gas injection and the PCV temperature of reactor1. Since April of 2012, Fukushima Diary has been reporting that the
Reactor1 temperature rised after nitrogen gas injection
Since 5/14/2013, Fukushima Diary has been reporting the unusual increase of temperature in reactor1. (cf, Reactor1 reaching 49℃, increased by 3℃ within 24 hours [URL]) On 5/17/2013, Tepco reported the
Tepco to restart nitrogen gas injection into reactor1
According to Tepco, they are going to restart the nitrogen gas injection into the suppression chamber of reactor1 on 5/8/2013. 6~7m3/h will be injected in order to “push out the
The purpose of nitrogen injection to reactor1 is “to confirm the impact of the radiolysis of water inside the PCV”
On 2/25/2013, Fukushima Diary reported Tepco was going to restart the nitrogen gas injection into PCV of reactor1. [URL 1] On 2/26/2013, Tepco reported the purpose is to confirm the
Tepco to restart nitrogen gas injection into reactor1 again
From 2/26/2013, Tepco is going to restart injecting nitrogen gas into S/C of reactor1. (5m3/h) S/C is a part of PCV. If the hydrogen gas density goes over 2%, there
The flow rate of nitrogen gas injection to reactor3 RPV has been increasing since this August
According to Tepco’s plant parameter, the flow rate of nitrogen gas injection to RPV in reactor3 has been increasing since this August. They keep injecting nitrogen gas into the reactors
