  • 2015:37 Models for axial relocation of fragmented and pulverized fuel pellets in distending fuel rods and its effects on fuel rod heat load

    Haverifall med kylmedelsförlust (LOCA) i lättvattenreaktorer kan leda till överhettning av bränslestavar, utvidgning av stavarnas kapslingsrör, samt axiell omflyttning av bränslekutsfragment i de delar av stavarna som expanderat. Bränsleomflyttningen kan koncentrera värmebelastningen till en begränsad del av stavarna och därigenom öka risken...

  • 2015:25 Design Guide for Nuclear Civil Structures (DNB)

    The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) and the Swedish licensees have previously in a jointly funded research project developed a design guide for civil structures at Swedish nuclear facilities to be based on Eurocodes, DNB. The report was published in January 2014 as SSM Report 2014:06. To further improve DNB and to ensure that the fundamentals of the recommendations will be applied...

  • 2011:34 Evolution of hydrogen by copper in ultrapure water without dissolved oxygen

    One result from this research was that the experimental difficulties of repeating Hultqvist and co-workers work are considerable and were initially underestimated. The main challenge was to obtain satisfactory tightness of all connectors involved in the experimental set-up. The problems with leakage resulted in that the research program originally planned for in this project had to be reduced...

  • 2007:09 DECOVALEX-THMC - Task C

    This report describes the results of Task C1 of the international DECOVALEX– THMC project devoted to Excavation Damage Zone (EDZ) in argillaceous rock at the Tournemire site in France. Task C of the project is aimed to understand the physical phenomena induced by excavation in the argillaceous rock. The task is to develop adequate numerical models for interpretation of observed damaged zones...

  • 2007:07 DECOVALEX-THMC Project - Task A

    This report presents the definition of the first phase, Task A-1, of the Task A of the international DECOVALEX project. The task is a working example of how interaction between THMC modelling and SA analysis could be performed. Starting with the technical definition of the Task A, the report presents the results of preliminary THM calculations with a purpose of an initial appreciation of the...

  • 2007:10 DECOVALEX-THMC - Task D

    The DECOVALEX project is an international cooperative project initiated by SKI, the Swedish Nuclear Power Inspectorate, with participation of about 10 international organizations. The name DECOVALEX stands for DEvelopment of COupled models and their VALidation against Experiments. The general goal of this project is to encourage multidisciplinary interactive and cooperative research on...

  • 2007:03 Variability and Uncertainties of Key Hydrochemical Parameters for SKB Sites

    An important part of the site investigations conducted by the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB) is the characterisation of groundwater chemical conditions in the deep bedrock environment where a final repository for spent nuclear fuel is planned to be located. This work is currently in its final stages at the two candidate sites, Forsmark and Laxemar, and should be...

  • 2007:02 Stakeholder involvement in Swedish nuclear waste management

    This report have attempted to show the development of stakeholder involvement in the siting of a final repository for Sweden’s spent nuclear fuel as resembling something other than a straightforward linear process of improvement and refinement. Stakeholder involvement has developed, over the past 15 years or so, in something more like a patchwork of different shapes and forms. Some of the...

  • 2009:33 Workshop on spent fuel performance, radionuclide chemistry and geosphere transport parameters, Lidingö 2008: Overview and evaluation of recent SKB procedures

    The safety assessment for disposal of spent nuclear fuel canister in the Swedish bedrock should thoroughly address the time period after a containment failure. Such a failure could be expected as a result of corrosion damage or mechanical failure due to rock movement. This report mainly covers some issues connected to parameters used for radionuclide transport calculations in the areas of...
