• 2011:30 A fatigue analysis including environmental effects for a pipe system in a Swedish BWR

  The effect of the environment on fatigue design has been the subject of intense study in USA, Japan and elsewhere. Several reports indicate a potentially large influence of the environment, leading to the proposal of entirely new analysis procedures. SSM has in an earlier project sponsored research to evaluate the technical basis for these proposals, see SSM Research Report 2011:04. In the...

• 2011:02 The Back-End of the Nuclear Fuel Cycle in Sweden, Considerations for safeguards and data handling

  The report is a compilation report consisting of three papers. A safeguards approach for the planned encapsulation facility and the operating final repository is presented in paper 1. Special considerations concerning safeguards for the final disposal process have been discussed and incorporated into the approach. Paper 2 defines the spent fuel data that must be secured, for safeguards...

• 2011:22 Infiltration of dilute groundwaters and resulting groundwater compositions at repository depth

  The planned Swedish concept for final disposal of spent nuclear fuel includes copper canisters placed in deposition holes at about 500 m depth in granitic bedrock. The copper canisters will be surrounded by bentonite buffer with the objective of inhibiting groundwater flow adjacent to the canister. It has been discovered that dilute glacial melt-water may induce erosion of the buffer material.

• 2011:31 Allocation of Decommissioning and Waste Liabilities

  A crucial task for the present generations is to ensure that environmental liabilities are identified sufficiently well so that it may be possible to accumulate the corresponding necessary financial assets in the Swedish Nuclear Waste Fund. Adequate funding will provide forthcoming generation’s with the financial means to decommission and dismantle older nuclear facilities that are part of...

• 2011:21 Workshop on spent fuel performance and radionuclide chemistry -Rånäs 2010: Assessment of some outstanding issues

  The safety assessment for final disposal of spent nuclear fuel has to comprehensively address the stage when containment barriers have failed and when radionuclide releases occur to the surrounding groundwater at repository depth. Essential processes for estimating risk/dose related to this scenario involve the release of radionuclide from the spent fuel surfaces due to radio-lytic oxidative...

• 2011:03 On Decommissioning Cost for Nuclear Power Plants

  This research report summarizes what has changed over the latest 15 years concerning actual and estimated costs for the D&D of nuclear power plants that have been shut down permanently. It also reports on the availability of detailed information for actual nuclear power plant D&D cost breakdowns. The results will be one supporting document in the review of the estimates submitted for...

• 2011:26 The influence of temperature and fluid pressure on the fracture network evolution around deposition holes of a KBS-3V concept at Forsmark, Sweden

  In preparation for the review of SKB’s license application for disposal of spent nuclear fuel, SSM is conducting studies to evaluate the performance of the multi-barrier principle on which the KBS-3 concept is based. Copper canisters containing the spent nuclear fuel are placed into granitic bedrock at about 500 m depth and embedded in clay. Thus, the rock, the clay and the copper canister...

• 2011:15 Beräkning av merkostnader 2011 för rivning av de svenska kärnkraftverken och omhändertagande av restprodukter

  Denna rapport beskriver SSM:s beräkningar av framtida merkostnader inför avgiftsförslaget för 2012-2014. Beräkningen görs i enlighet med finansieringslagen och avser samtliga merkostnader fram till dess att restprodukterna från de svenska kärnkraftverken är slutligt förvarade. Enligt nuvarande beräkningar antas detta ske 2069. Uppskattningen...

• 2011:12 Analysis of Barrier Performance: Modelling of Copper corrosion scenarios with and without buffer erosion

  The purpose of this project was to develop a numerical modelling capacity to address the corrosion of the copper canister under gradually changing transport conditions caused by buffer erosion and removal of buffer mass. Due to the complexity of this task, such a model cannot be realistic in all respects, but the present effort should address the feasibility of solving numerical and...

• 2011:11 Handling Interfaces and Time-varying Properties in Radionuclide Transport Models

  Quintessa’s QPAC code has been used to investigate the Qeq approach. The conclusions from this simulation study are the following. The basic approach to calculating Qeq values is sound, however, narrow channels could lead to the same release as larger fractures with the same pore velocity, so a channel enhancement factor of √10 should be considered. A spalling zone that increases the area of...
