Rationalizing transport operations: The TN 24 transport storage cask approach

Creators

  • 1. Transnucleaire, Paris (France)

Description

The number of transports of spent fuel interim storage casks can be reduced by improved standardized cask design. Optimization of cask design is based on two main technological choices: shielding and spent fuel support basket design. The approaches to optimizing cask design to improve payload is described for the Transnucleaire TN24 family of dual purpose transport and storage casks. (author)
