The purpose of this design analysis is to determine the accuracy of the SAS2H module of SCALE 4.3 in predicting isotopic concentrations of spent fuel assemblies. The objective is to develop a methodology for modeling assemblies similar to those evaluated within this analysis and to establish the consistency of SAS2H predictions. The results of this analysis may then be applied to future depletion calculations using SAS2H in which no measurements are available.

The objective of the Limerick Unit 1 Radiochemical Assay Comparisons to SAS2H Calculations is to determine the accuracy of the SAS2H control module of the baselined modular code system SCALE, Version 4.4A (STN: 10129-4.4A-00), in predicting the isotopic concentrations of spent fuel, and to quantify the overall effect that the differences between the calculated and measured isotopic concentrations have on the system reactivity. The scope of this calculation covers eight different spent fuel samples from a fuel assembly that was irradiated in the Limerick Unit 1 boiling water reactor (BWR).

The purpose of this report is to document and validate the external accumulation model that predicts accumulation of fissile materials in the invert, fractures and lithophysae in the rock beneath a degrading waste package containing spent nuclear fuel (SNF) in the monitored geologic repository at Yucca Mountain. (Lithophysae are hollow, bubblelike structures in the rock composed of concentric shells of finely crystalline alkali feldspar, quartz, and other materials (Bates and Jackson 1984 [DIRS 128109], p.

In this study, the long-term geochemical behavior of waste package (WP), containing Pu-ceramic, was modeled. The ceramic under consideration contains Ti, U, Pu, Gd and Hf in a pyrochlore structure; the Gd and Hf stabilize the mineral structure, but are also intended to provide criticality control. The specific study objectives were to determine:
1) the extent to which criticality control material, suggested for this WP design, will remain in the WP after corrosion/dissolution of the initial package configuration (such that it can be effective in preventing criticality), and

This calculation file provides comparisons of one- and two-dimensional methods for calculating the isotopic content of spent nuclear fuel. The one-dimensional methods use the SAS2H sequence of SCALE 4.4a (Reference 7.1) and the SAS2 sequence of SCALE 5.0 (Reference 7.2). The two-dimensional method uses the TRITON control module along with the T-DEPL sequence of SCALE 5.0 (Reference 7.3). The SAS2H results for SCALE 4.4a are taken from Reference 7.4. Data from previous two-dimensional calculations (Reference 7.5) using CASM03 will also be used for comparisons with TRITON.
