“…Hot cell studies that dried N Reactor fuel elements in moist inert gas, where rates can be inferred from isothermal periods at 5OoC and 75'C (Lawrence, 1998) Fuel clement shipping observations at approximately 20°C, where gas generation rates were measured (Briggs and Roe, 1997, Attached as Appendix 10.1 to Pajunen, 1999) Assessment of all relevant reaction rate data has been documented in Pajunen, 1999 which confirms that the reaction rates currently used in SNF Project calculations are appropriately conservative. Peer review of Pajunen, 1999 was provided by Fauske and Associates.…”
