摘要：
The safe storage of Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) within a dry cask system must be guaranteed for any operating condition. In particular, the Peak Cladding Temperature (PCT) is currently employed as a measure of the fuel integrity in normal conditions. The same fuel integrity has to be ensured also in off-normal and accidental conditions by keeping the PCT below the regulatory limits. In this regard, the work proposed in this paper aims at evaluating the performance of a concrete-based dry cask in off-normal and accidental conditions. More specifically, the influence of a partial to complete blockage of the air inlet openings on the PCT is assessed by means of a MELCOR model of the HI-STORM 100S cask. Attention is also paid to the temperature of the external concrete cask in order to check the integrity of the concrete itself.
