High temperature testing of structurally damaged impact and puncture package protection systems

Description

Heat transfer through materials which change phase or combust is a complex process. It is important to understand the heat transfer in such materials to analyze and predict the survivability of a nuclear material transportation package in a hypothetical thermal accident. Therefore, several high temperature tests were conducted to study the behavior of some common materials used in nuclear material transportation packages. 7 refs., 6 figs
