Thermal Analysis of the 9975 Package as a Plutonium Storage Container
Conference
·
OSTI ID:7553
Thermal analyses of three plutonium storage configurations (two plutonium metal and one plutonium oxide) consisting of the 3013 container within the 9975 package have been performed. All analyses are steady-state with 19 watts of Pu as contents. The analyzed conditions include allowance for storing the 9975 in a lattice configuration with stacking in a maximum ambient temperature 130 degrees F (54.4 degrees C) (assuming total loss of ventilation) and an ambient of 200 degrees F (93.3 degrees C) during accident (fire) conditions.
