Description

In Japan, the cask-storage method of spent fuel will be licensed in the near future and the related R ampersand D works (partly of the Japanese Government) have been carried out mainly by CRIEPI. This paper describes the results of research subjects that CRIEPI selected in order to provide reference data for the licensing of the cask-storage method as follows: (1) temperature analysis ampersand tests of fuel cladding, (2) creep test of fuel cladding, (3) containment test of cask lid structure, (4) cask drop test, (5) material testing of ductile cast iron cask, (6) building collapse ampersand heavy objects drop accident onto cask, (7) cask toppling by earthquake
