AbstractAbstract
[en] SNLA evaluated three strongly heat-driven flow codes, TOUGH, NORIA, PETROS, for simulating unsaturated ground-water flow near a high-level radioactive waste (HLW) repository. The purpose of the evaluation was to ascertain whether one or more of these codes could be useful in the development of a performance assessment methodology for disposal of HLW in welded tuff. The results of this study suggest the need for thorough investigations of the impact of heat on the flow field in the vicinity of an unsaturated HLW repository. Recommendations are to develop a new flow code combining the best features of these three codes and eliminating the worst ones and to find test problems representative of conditions around an HLW repository
