State of parts and materials in the storage of IGR reactor used fuel
AbstractAbstract
[en] Parts and materials, having been stored for a long period of time (32 years) in the storage of IGR reactor used fuel, was examined. Uranium-graphite blocks, steel sealed cans with boron carbide powder, steel semi-hermetic tanks for fuel blocks storing, steel frameworks for tanks, leaden blocks, concrete cover on the bottom and wall of storage dry area, dry area protective lid concrete sections were visually examined. Steel parts surface corrosive damage depth was evaluated. Rather satisfactory state of all the parts and materials of the storage was determined on the basis of obtained data. (author)
