Thermal Analysis of Spent Nuclear Fuel Transportation Cask Shielded With Phase Change Material
Abstract:The "Closed Fuel Cycle" model, in which spent nuclear fuel is viewed as a resource, has found support in India. The methods used in India to handle nuclear waste are equivalent to those used elsewhere and adhere to International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) regulations. In accordance with the waste management procedures, Cat-III and Cat-IV high beta-gamma (alpha and non-alpha) waste canisters must be temporarily stored inside designed storage vaults. Depending on the radioactivity of the canisters, they are eve… Show more
