Title: Three-dimensional thermal analysis of a high-level waste repository

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6449454· OSTI ID:6449454

The analysis used the TRUMP computer code to evaluate the thermal fields for six repository scenarios that studied the effects of room ventilation, room backfill, and repository thermal diffusivity. The results for selected nodes are presented as plots showing the effect of temperature as a function of time. 15 figures, 6 tables.
