Abstract

Annual dose on the containment building wall of the interim storage facility at normal condition was calculated to estimate the dose rate transition of the facility of PWR spent nuclear fuel. In this study, source term was generated by ORIGEN-ARP with 4.5 wt% initial enrichment, 45,000 MWd/MTU burnup and 10 years cooling time. Modeling of the storage facility and the containment building and radiation shielding evaluations were conducted by MCNP code depending on the distance between the wall and the facility in the building. In the case of the centralized storage system, the distance required for the annual dose rate limit from 10CFR72 was estimated to be 50 m.

경수로 사용후핵연료 건식 중간저장시설 격납건물 크기에 따른 방사선량률 추이 분석을 위하여 격납건물 외부 벽면에서의 추정연간선량을 계산하였다. ORIGEN-ARP를 사용하여 농축도 4.5 wt%, 연소도 45,000 MWd/MTU 냉각기간 10년인 사용후핵연료를 대상으로 선원항을 생산하였으며, MCNP 코드를 사용하여 저장시설 및 격납건물에 대한 모델링 및 선량률 계산을 수행하였다. 연간선량은 격납건물 외부 벽면에서의 값으로 계산하였으며, 격납건물 벽과 최외곽 배열의 저장용기와의 간격을 50 m 이상으로 설정할 경우 10CFR72에서 제시하는 연간선량인 0.25 mSv 이하의 값이 계산되었다.
