Thermal behaviour of vitrified high level radioactive waste

  • 1. Universidad Complutense de Madrid (Spain). Facultad de Ciencias Quimicas

Description

A thermal model for explaining and simulating temperature distributions in glass solidified radioactive waste is proposed. Four operations of waste management have been considered: a) Cooling of a cylindrical matrix with current air. b) Cooling of a cylindrical matrix under water. c) Cooling of a buried cylindrical matrix in a geological repository (granite). d) Cooling of several arrangements of matrices in a geological repository (granite).
