Abstract: A leaning vehicle includes a vehicle body, a left wheel, a right wheel, left and right bearings, left and right axle, left arm, right arm, and lean mechanism. The left arm supports the left wheel from inside in a vehicle width direction. The right arm supports the right wheel from inside in the vehicle width direction. The lean mechanism causes the left wheel and the right wheel to lean about a front-rear direction as a rotation center when the vehicle body leans about the front-rear direction as a rotation center. The single bearing is inserted into a hub hole of the left wheel. The single bearing is inserted into a hub hole of the right wheel.

Abstract: A core performance calculation apparatus includes: a nuclear constant storage device that stores nuclear constants that have been evaluated in advance in analysis of a fuel assembly; and a three-dimensional core nuclear thermal-hydraulic characteristics analysis device that obtains core characteristics including a power of the fuel assembly. The nuclear constant storage device stores, as the nuclear constants, response relationships between a neutron that flows into a fuel assembly cell and fuel assembly nuclear characteristics, and response relationships between a neutron that is produced from a fuel rod and the fuel assembly nuclear characteristics. The three-dimensional core nuclear thermal-hydraulic characteristics analysis device obtains a neutron effective multiplication factor by using the response relationships that have been stored in the nuclear constant storage device, and obtains the power of the fuel assembly by using the neutron effective multiplication factor.

Abstract: A control rod operation generates a rod insertion block signal during operation of a reactor. Four neutron detector assemblies including a plurality of LPRMs arranged in an axial direction of a core are arranged adjacent to a plurality of insertion selection control rods, respectively, which are simultaneously inserted into the core. Neutron flux ratio calculation units are arranged in each of the neutron detector assemblies, and ratios (neutron flux ratios BA/AA, CA/AA, and DA/AA) of an average LPRM signal of the respective LPRMs at positions B, C, and D to an average LPRM signal of the respective LPRMs at a position A which is closest to the control rod insertion end of the core are calculated. When the largest neutron flux ratio out of the neutron flux ratios exceeds a set neutron flux ratio, a rod insertion block signal which is generated by a local range rod insertion monitor is output.
