Structural analysis of the Browns Ferry spent fuel storage pool
Description
As part of a joint Spent Fuel Management Program with the Tennessee Valley Authority, General Electric Company recently completed a structural analysis of the spent fuel pool at the Browns Ferry nuclear power station to determine if the pool floor can accommodate storage of consolidated fuel. Both linear and non-linear elastic techniques were employed in the analysis with results that proved highly effective in establishing with confidence the adequacy of the safety margins available in the existing structures
