The Japanese experimental fast reactor JOYO MK-II has been operated at 100 MW since March 1983 as a fuel and material irradiation facility. Many types of fuel irradiation tests for the prototype reactor MONJU and demonstration type fast breeder reactor FBR have been conducted by using four types of irradiation rings, including an instrumented test assembly (INTA). The paper discusses experience with driver fuel irradiation and MONJU-type fuel irradiation tests.
