DESCRIPTION Historical Background This NUREG-0371 [1] item involves the development of consistent and formalized acceptance criteria regarding the conversion to higher density storage racks (increased storage capacity) in existing spent fuel storage …
1
DESCRIPTION This NUREG-0471 [1] task will develop more reliable models and associated computer capability than currently available to the staff for assessing the radiological consequences of accidents that could result in the releases of radioactivity …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background Individual reactor fuel rods sometimes fail during normal operations and many fuel rods are expected to fail during severe accidents. To ensure that these fuel failures do not result in unacceptable releases to the …
1
DESCRIPTION This NUREG-0471 [1] task covers a spectrum of technical efforts related to the staff review of LMFBR fuel designs. The efforts include: (1) evaluating licensing requirements for the behavior of stainless steel cladding and hexcans in an LMFBR …
1
DESCRIPTION This NUREG-0471 [1] task involves the maintenance and improvement of calculational capabilities for assessing doses to individuals from radiation and radioactive effluents from normal operation and from radioactive releases from postulated …
1
DESCRIPTION The fuel assembly is a highly nonlinear structure which can be subjected to substantial loadings during seismic excitations and LOCA transients. The integrity of this assembly is critical for plant safety. Extensive work has been completed by …
1
DESCRIPTION Practice in health impact assessments at the time of identification of this issue was to convert radiation exposure estimates into estimates of health effects, such as cancer deaths, illness, and life shortening. However, the models that were …
