Thermal performance of transportation packages for radioactive materials
- Prevention of damage caused by heat is one of the objectives during package safety evaluation. This chapter describes basics of heat transfer and major aspects of regulatory requirements. Package temperature criteria and fire test conditions are explained. Special package design features regarding material properties and safety evaluation concepts are discussed. Experimental fire testing is performed by pool fire or with the help of a furnace. Analysis by numerical or analytical approaches show temperature gradients and whether compliance with the regulatory requirements and specified design temperatures is met. The tightness of the package lid system influenced by geometry changes is in the focus of a holistic thermo-mechanical approach considering the entire mechanical and thermal load conditions according the regulatory requirements.
