Waste Package Misload Probability
The objective of this calculation is to calculate the probability of occurrence for fuel assembly (FA) misloads (i.e., FA placed in the wrong location) and FA damage during FA movements. The scope of this calculation is provided by the information obtained from the Framatome ANP 2001a report. The first step in this calculation is to categorize each fuel-handling event that occurred at nuclear power plants. The different categories are based on FAs being damaged or misloaded. The next step is to determine the total number of FAs involved in the event.
