Title: Acceptance & validation test report for HANSF code version 1.3.2

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/807333· OSTI ID:807333

The HANSF code, Version 1.3.2, is a stand-along code that runs only in DOS. As a result, it runs on any Windows' platform, since each Windows{trademark} platform can create a DOS-prompt window and execute HANSF in the DOS window. The HANSF code is proprietary to Fauske & Associates, Inc., (FAI) of Burr Ridge, IL, the developers of the code. The SNF Project has a license from FAI to run the HANSF code on any computer for only work related to SNF Project. The SNF Project owns the MCO.FOR routine, which is the main routine in HANSF for CVDF applications. The HANSF code calculates physical variables such as temperature, pressure, oxidation rates due to chemical reactions of uranium metal/fuel with water or oxygen. The code is used by the Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) Project at Hanford; for example, the report Thermal Analysis of Cold Vacuum Drying of Spent Nuclear Fuel (HNF-SD-SNF-CN-023). The primary facilities of interest are the K-Basins, Cold Vacuum Drying Facility (CVDF), Canister Storage Building (CSB) and T Plant. The overall Summary is presented in Section 2.0, Variances in Section 3.0, Comprehensive Assessment in Section 4.0, Results in Section 5.0, Evaluation in Section 6.0, and Summary of Activities in Section 7.0.
