Assessing the Performance of Passive Ventilation for a Used Fuel Dry Storage Facility
Main Article Content
Abstract
Dry storage is a proven technology in use around the world to store used, or spent nuclear fuel containers. The design of the storage facility must provide adequate passive ventilation to maintain the ambient air temperature in the space containing the DSCs at or below the specified design temperature.
A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method was chosen to verify the ventilation design for the Western Used Fuel Dry Storage Facility (WUFDSF).
