Burnup Credit Implementation in VVER-440 Dual Purpose Cask.
Original language description
The project entitled the 'Development of Technology Related to Burnup Credit Implementation in Storage and Transport Spent Fuel Casks' was proposed, this has been in development since late 1999 and comes to completion in the year 2002. Two collaborators,the Nuclear Research Institute (NRI) at Rez and SKODA JS company in Plzen, the Czech Republic, were developing a VVER spent fuel dual purpose cask design based on the burnup credit implementation. In this newly proposed design, the enormously conservative reactivity margin, which is connected with the spent fuel burnup, was converted into a cask material and capacity improvement due to the BUC implementation, keeping approximately the same price of the cask at the same time. Original design features enabled the designers to overcome difficulties connected with the heat transfer and removal solution as well as to meet the standards put on the transport casks.
