Description

The importance of forced diffusion relative to ordinary diffusion was investigated as to its potential as a transport mechanism of radionuclides near a HLW repository. Two cases are considered: (1) the canister is located in a rock mass and (2) the canister is located in air. Forced diffusion appears insignificant in the first case but potentially important in the second
