Heat transfer considerations in the canister storage of high-level solidified wastes. [1500-MTU/year plant]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7364779
Heat transfer considerations in the canister storage of stabilized calcine, stabilized calcine in a metal matrix, and glass or sintered glass-ceramics are discussed. The number of canisters required annually for a 1500-metric tons of uranium/year (MTU/year) reprocessing plant are calculated based on specified canister configurations, cooling media, and maximum permissible waste form or canister wall temperature.
