Criticality computer calculations on the conditioning of Rossendorf fuel elements in transport and storage flasks CASTOR MTR 2

Creators

Description

The condition of criticality safety (keff<0.95) is fulfilled in all considered cases. Since all cases are undermoderated in the event of cavity flooding, the limit of the cavity volume in the fuel area, fixed by the contruction, is essential for this result. The computer calculations were performed by the Monte-Carlo version MCNP-3B. (orig./HP)

Abstract (German)

Die Bedingung der Kritikalitaets-Sicherheit (keff<0.95) wird in allen betrachteten Faellen erfuellt. Da alle Faelle bei Wasserflutung der Hohlraeume untermoderiert sind, ist die durch die Konstruktion festgelegte Begrenzung des Hohlraum-Volumens im Brennstoffbereich wesentlich fuer dieses Ergebnis. Die Rechnungen wurden mit der Monte-Carlo-Version MCNP-3B durchgefuehrt. (orig./HP)
