63871 2025 eng poster 0 -- -- -- Packages for the transport of spent nuclear fuel are designed to withstand severe accidents and must ensure compliance with the IAEA-Regulations prescribing mechanical tests followed by a thermal test. The thermal test involves that a test specimen is exposed to a thermal environment for 30 minutes, simulating the conditions of a hydrocarbon fuel-air fire. The average fire temperature is at least 800°C, and the fire completely engulfs the test specimen. In advance of a regular fire test, BAM performs so-called fire reference tests or calorimeter tests with a fire reference package (FRP) to determine the test conditions for compliance with the IAEA-requirements.
