摘要: |
An evaluation of the impact of breached cladding of aluminum-based spent nuclear fuel (AI-SNF) has been completed. The evaluation has focused on the impact of the resulting exposed fuel core material on radioactive material containment during shipping and on the radioactive material release to basin water during wet storage. Degraded fuel assemblies from the RA-3 Research and Test Reactor that experienced corrosion while stored in water basins at the Ezeiza Central Storage Facility (Ezeiza CSF) in Argentina were evaluated as a case study of foreign research reactor fuel being sent to the Savannah River Site (SRS). One hundred thirty-four assemblies of a total of 207 RA-3 assemblies have each been observed to exhibit up to 3 cm(s) of exposed fuel meat. |
