Polyurethane foam used as impact limiter material undergoes high plastic deformations, whereat the resulting stress-strain relations strongly depend on loading speed and temperature. This paper discusses the efforts necessary to develop a reliable numerical foam simulation model focussing on generation and implementation of temperature- dependent yield curves
Zusammenfassung der Anforderungen an Behälter zur Endlagerung von schwach und mittel radioaktiven Abfällen in der Schachtanlage Konrad. Darstellung der präzisierungsbedürftigen Sachverhalte und Textpassagen sowie der entsprechenden aktuellen Arbeiten der BAM, die im Unterauftrag des BfS einen Leitfaden für die Bauartprüfung erstellt
Abfallgebinde, die im Endlager Konrad eingelagert werden sollen, müssen die Anforderungen und Kriterien erfüllen, die in den Endlagerungsbedingungen (SE-IB-29/08-Rev-1 [1]) und in der Produktkontrolle (SE-IB-30/08-Rev-1) festgelegt sind. Die Qualifizierung der Abfallbehälter erfolgt auf dieser Grundlage in Form von Bauartprüfungen, die von der Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) im Auftrag des Bundesamtes für Strahlenschutz (BfS) durchgeführt werden. Darüber hinaus sind die im Hinblick auf Behälterbauartprüfungen relevanten Nebenbestimmungen aus dem Planfeststellungsbeschluss für das Endlager Konrad zu berücksichtigen. Zur besseren Anwendbarkeit werden diese Nebenbestimmungen in die Endlagerungsbedingungen und die Produktkontrolle eingearbeitet. Begleitend ist als Hilfestellung für die Abfallablieferer und Behälterhersteller ein Leitfaden geplant, der praktikable Nachweisstrategien aufzeigt und, soweit erforderlich, Hintergrundinformationen zu den Spezifikationen der Regelwerke liefert. Die BAM ist vom BfS beauftragt, hierfür Vorschläge zu entwickeln und Empfehlungen abzugeben.
Low and intermediate level radio active waste has been produced in Germany for several decades. While a part of the waste had been deposited in the Morleben repository and the Asse mine which have been operated for just a limited period of time, the major amount is conditioned and packaged in temporarily stored waste containers.
Those containers are designated for final disposal in the KONRAD repository being currently under construction and expected to start operation in 2022. As a consequence, an assessment of the waste container documentation and safety is strongly needed to receive an approval for the KONRAD repository. This requalification is challenging because those old containers have to meet the same safety requirements as new containers.
Elastomer seals are widely used as barrier seals in containers for low and intermediate level radioactive waste and in some countries for spent fuel transportation casks. Depending on the area of use, the rubber materials have to demonstrate proper sealing performance with regard to mechanical, thermal and environmental conditions as well as irradiation during the entire operation period.
In Germany the low and intermediate level radioactive waste is planned to be disposed in the Konrad repository in standardized containers. Many of these containers use an elastomer seal between lid and container body. Depending on the radiactive inventory and a possible containment of the waste in inner barrels and/or concrete structures, such containers may require a specific leak tightness. In such cases, specified leakage rates are shall not be exceeded by the the seals to keep potential activity releases from the inventories well below defined limits.
Generally, all waste containers have to fulfill the waste acceptance criteria for the Konrad repository as defined by the reports BfS SE-IB-29/08 and SE-IB-30/08. From these criteria several requirements for seal performance are derived. The seals have to:
- ensure full functionality until final container disposal,
- maintain its function in case of a thermal or mechanical accident,
- ensure encapsulation also at -20 °C.
This combination of requirements is challenging especially as a seal exchange, which is typical for many other applications, is hardly possible and thus a sound understanding of how to perform safety evaluation of containers is required. Therefore BAM has initiated investigations on elastomer seal behaviour. This work focuses on low temperature behaviour and sealing performance concerning static conditions as well as partial loss of compression and ageing of elastomer seals. Concerning ageing, property changes caused by long-term thermooxidative conditions as well as gamma irradiation are investigated.
This contribution presents an overview and explanation of the aims of the ongoing research and gives an update of the most relevant results.
Federal approval of legacy waste containers for the Konrad repository - strategies and challenges
(2016)
The approval of an increasing number of legacy waste containers for the Konrad re-pository is expected in the next years. While well documented young legacy waste containers can rather easily be approved, the assessment is challenging for contain-ers which were manufactured some decades ago. All parties have to work closely together to find a specifically fitted strategy for such approvals. Thereby, rework of documents and requalification can be a promising approach. Details about three basic strategies have been shown to give a hint which options are available.
