Download or read book Shielding Methods for Evaluating the Versatility of Proposed Shipping Casks written by and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a shipping cask has been designed for a certain type of spent fuel, the number of assemblies it can carry is fixed, as are the thicknesses of the various steel shells, the neutron shield, and the gamma shield. The question then becomes ''What other types of spent fuel may be shipped in the cask.'' Using the same neutron and gamma source terms, miscellaneous correlations, and one-group cross sections found in the CAPSIZE program, a fast new interactive shielding program called KWIKDOSE has been written for the IBM-PC which computes and displays a 2-D table showing the total dose rate ten feet from the centerline of a cask, as a function of the spent fuel's burnup and cooling time.

Download or read book Evaluation of Shielding Analysis Methods for Spent Fuel Casks written by and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accurate results from shielding analyses of spent fuel casks are increasingly important as the desire for optimized designs increases. ALARA concerns also contribute to the need for accurate dose evaluations for casks. Three areas require the attention of cask shielding analysts -- radiation source generation, utilization of cross-section data, and the radiation transport and dose evaluation. This paper reviews recent efforts carried out at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) to evaluate the impact of various codes, data, and analysis assumptions on the calculation of radiation doses from spent fuel casks. 9 refs., 1 tab.

Download or read book SNF Shipping Cask Shielding Analysis written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Waste Management and Remedial Action Division has planned a modification sequence for storage facility 7827 in the Solid Waste Storage Area (SWSA). The modification cycle is: (1) modify an empty caisson, (2) transfer the spent nuclear fuel (SNF) of an occupied caisson to a hot cell in building 3525 for inspection and possible repackaging, and (3) return the package to the modified caisson in the SWSA. Although the SNF to be moved is in the solid form, it has different levels of activity. Thus, the following 5 shipping casks will be available for the task: the Loop Transport Carrier, the In- Pile Loop LITR HB-2 Carrier, the 6.5-inch HRLEL Carrier, the HFIR Hot Scrap Carrier, and the 10-inch ORR Experiment Removal Shield Cask. This report describes the shielding tasks for the 5 casks: determination of shielding characteristics, any streaming avenues, estimation of thermal limits, and shielding calculational uncertainty for use in the transportation plan.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this work is to demonstrate that the 5320 shipping cask meets Federal regulations for maximum radiation dose rates when loaded with the intended plutonium oxide cargo. It should be emphasized that the 5320 is an existing cask, and therefore this work represents confirmatory analysis rather than design analysis.
