Definitions

  • the invention relates to a container for holding radioactive inventory, comprising a container base, a container jacket and a container lid.
  • the container encloses an interior space to accommodate the radioactive inventory.
  • Such containers are basically known from practice. Under extreme circumstances, the connection of the container lid to the container shell forms a relative weak point, since the connection is often designed to be reversible. Reversible connections are, for example, screw connections. Due to the very long-term nature of the use of the containers, the containers must be designed for a wide range of extreme situations. This also includes, for example, extreme vibration situations such as falls from several meters in height. During such falls, the potential energy of the container is converted into deformation energy, with the screws being subjected to the greatest load due to the solid construction of the container walls. If the yield point of the screws is exceeded, the screws are plastically deformed. In extreme cases, the plastic deformation can lead to a leak in the container.
  • shock absorbers are hollow cylindrical and made of aluminum. If the container lid falls from a height of several meters (flat lid fall), the fuel elements collide with the hollow cylindrical shock absorbers, causing the latter to plastically deform in an accordion-like manner become. This plastic deformation of the shock absorbers absorbs a significant portion of the potential energy, so that the stresses in the screws are reduced at least to such an extent that no plastic deformations occur on the screws.
  • the hollow cylindrical shock absorbers from the prior art known from practice are attached to the inside of the container lid via additional screw connections. Consequently, threaded holes are required on the inside of the container lid, which means that the container lid loses stability.
  • WO 2015/032848 A1 describes a container for holding radioactive inventory, with a large number of plastically deformable shock absorbers being provided on the underside of a lid. These shock absorbers are made, for example, of aluminum, which can take the form of solid or hollow cylinders. The radioactive inventory hits these shock absorbers directly. The shock absorbers are attached to the underside of the cover using screw connections, for example.
  • EP 2 827 336 A1 A container for holding radioactive inventory is described, which has a metal sheet with knobs.
  • the knobs essentially serve as spacers and, as a result, create cavities and provide insulation.
  • the nubs stamped on the metal sheet also allow for plastic deformation, so that there
  • the container described has a shock absorber for the container bottom and the container jacket.
  • a shock absorber for the lid is not described.
  • CN 203 026 182 U describes a container for holding radioactive inventory, with springs arranged on the inside of the container shell acting as shock absorbers. A shock absorber on the lid is not disclosed.
  • shock absorbers on the underside of the lid WO 2015/032848 A1
  • shock absorbers have to be elaborately shaped in order to absorb the impact energy in conjunction with similarly complexly shaped radioactive equipment.
  • all shock absorbers must be attached to the underside of the lid, which, on the one hand, causes the container lid to lose stability and, on the other hand, requires considerable effort in producing and attaching the shock absorbers to the underside of the lid.
  • the invention is based on the object of providing a container of the type mentioned at the outset in which the disadvantages outlined above can be avoided.
  • the task is to further reduce the effort involved in producing and assembling the shock absorbers.
  • the invention teaches a container according to claim 1.
  • radioactive inventory examples include pellets, cut steel scrap and solid elements.
  • the radioactive inventory can also have at least one barrel or a plurality of barrels.
  • there can also be water in the container. Therefore, the container for holding radioactive inventory is suitable for isolating the inventory from the environment in a fluid-tight manner.
  • the container is suitable for adequate radioactive shielding via correspondingly thick metallic container walls.
  • the container base and/or the container lid is reversibly or irreversibly connected to the container jacket.
  • Reversible connections are, for example, screw connections. Irreversible connections are e.g. B. Welded connections.
  • the container base is irreversibly connected to the container jacket. It is advantageous that the container lid is reversibly connected to the container jacket.
  • plastically deformable in the sense of the invention therefore means that the respective body is predominantly plastically deformable.
  • the hollow chambers can have regular geometric shapes, such as honeycombs.
  • the hollow chambers can also be designed in the form of bubbles, so that the plastically deformable element is then a solidified foam.
  • the term “layer” can refer to both an element that is continuous over a surface and a large number of elements distributed over a surface.
  • the plastically deformable layer can therefore take on very different surface shapes.
  • the plastically deformable layer can be, for example, a circle or a square or several arranged concentrically to one another Include rings.
  • the layer can be designed in the form of a checkerboard or in the form of a large number of dots. Combinations of different surface shapes are also possible.
  • the layer In order to be able to distribute the impact forces evenly, the layer must be continuous or the individual elements of the layer must be approximately the same strength. This ensures that the impact forces of the inventory are not transmitted too strongly to one or more protruding layer areas.
  • no solid bodies may be arranged between the plastically deformable layer areas or around them in such a way that the impact forces are transferred in whole or in part to the container lid and thus the plastically deformable layer is bridged.
  • the plastically deformable layer is designed in such a way that, for example, a plate can be placed on the plastically deformable layer, which can evenly distribute the impact forces of at least a large part of the inventory over at least a large part of the area.
  • the term “majority” preferably means 50%, more preferably 75% and particularly preferably 100%. Such a design of the plastically deformable layer ensures that the kinetic energy of the impact can be distributed over a particularly large area, whereby the plastically deformable layer can be made correspondingly thinner.
  • the plastically deformable layer has a specific energy absorption in the vertical direction of 5 to 50 J/cm 3 , preferably from 15 to 40 and particularly preferably from 20 to 30 J/cm 3 .
  • the specific energy absorption is an essential volume-independent measure of the plastically deformable layer. The lower the specific energy absorption, the thicker the plastic, deformable layer must be be so that a corresponding amount of kinetic energy can be absorbed in the plastically deformable layer. However, the specific energy absorption cannot be arbitrarily high, otherwise the stresses in the screws can become so great that plastic deformations also occur in the screws.
  • the specified ranges of specific energy absorption are largely independent of the design of the container and the inventory, so that they represent a fundamental statement about the nature of the plastically deformable layer.
  • the specific energy absorption can be adjusted primarily via average hollow chamber volumes or via the corresponding material. The larger the hollow chamber volumes are, the harder the corresponding material system must be for a certain desired specific energy absorption and vice versa.
  • the plastically deformable layer is isotropically deformable.
  • isotropic means that the plastically deformable layer can be plastically deformed approximately equally well in all spatial directions.
  • An example of isotropic plastically deformable materials are solidified foams.
  • hollow chamber structures with regular geometric dimensions such as honeycomb chambers are generally not isotropically deformable.

  • the plastically deformable layer can be fastened using screw connections.
  • the deformable layer can also be connected in a materially bonded manner to the lead shielding cover or to the flat holding element.
  • the plastically deformable layer can be glued or welded to the lead shielding cover or to the flat holding element.
  • the plastically deformable layer is enclosed by a waterproof covering. Furthermore, it is within the scope of the invention that the plastically deformable layer was foamed in an enveloping form, in particular in a waterproof enveloping form.
  • a lead shield is also provided on the container interior side on the container jacket and on the container bottom. Then it is within the scope of the invention that the entire interior of the container is encapsulated by a lead shield.
  • the thickness of the lead shielding is preferably between 20 and 140 mm.
  • the side walls of the plastically deformable layer expediently border a fluid at least in some areas.
  • the term “fluid” is understood to mean liquids and gases and in particular air or water. It is expedient for the side walls of the plastically deformable layer to be spaced from the inside of the container shell or from the inside of the lead shielding on the container shell.
  • the distance between at least one side wall of the plastically deformable layer and the inside of the container jacket or the inside of the lead shield is preferably 0 to 100 mm, in particular 10 to 90 mm and preferably 20 to 90 mm.
