Definitions
- TITLE PACKAGE INCLUDING PACKAGING FOR THE TRANSPORT AND/OR STORAGE OF RADIOACTIVE CONTENT, AND INCLUDING A REDUCED INTERNAL DAMPING SYSTEM
- the present invention relates to the field of packages of radioactive materials, comprising packaging as well as radioactive content housed in a containment enclosure defined by the packaging.
- the packaging may be of the type comprising a removable cover, such as for example used for the transport of nuclear fuel assemblies. It may alternatively be packaging of the case or container type, in which the cover is preferably fixed permanently to the side packaging body, for example by welding.
- the radioactive contents include a storage device as well as one or more radioactive elements, the latter being possible assemblies of nuclear fuel, preferably fresh, containers/cases of vitrified waste or technological waste, containers/cases for shells and tips, or even cases for transporting powder (PuO2 powder for example).
- the invention relates more specifically to an internal damping system, housed axially in the confinement enclosure between the radioactive content and an axial sealing member of the packaging, namely its cover or its bottom.
- a shock-absorbing system is preferably associated with the lid of the packaging to protect the integrity of the containment enclosure in the event of an axial fall of the package.
- an internal damping system can simultaneously, or alternatively, be provided in association with the bottom of the packaging.
- a package for storing and/or transporting radioactive materials generally comprises, as a waterproof outer envelope, a packaging having a side body, a bottom and a cover. These parts of the packaging define a cavity, called a confinement enclosure, for housing radioactive content, for example formed by a storage device housing nuclear fuel assemblies.
- the storage device is usually called a storage basket. It comprises one or more axial housings each intended to house a radioactive element, namely a nuclear fuel assembly in the example given above. In another case where the radioactive elements are cases and/or containers, several of them can be stacked axially in each housing of the storage basket.
- the safety demonstration of the packaging loaded with radioactive content is based in particular on regulatory drop tests.
- the radioactive content can move axially in the cavity of the packaging towards the lid due to a functional play between the radioactive contents and the cover. While the head shock-absorbing cover is crushed, the radioactive content can then impact this same cover during this fall known as “axial fall”.
- Very significant forces are thus generated delayed in the closing system of the removable lid of the packaging, under the effect of the radioactive content housed in the containment enclosure.
- the cover fixing device is very stressed, this can for example be made using fixing screws, or even include a bayonet ring.
- an internal damping system placed in the containment enclosure. , between the cover and the radioactive contents.
- the system is also called an internal shock absorption system.
- such a system includes one or more plastic deformation damping devices, such as metal foam.
- the maximum decelerations that the storage basket can withstand on the one hand, and the radioactive elements housed in this basket on the other hand are taken into account.
- it is the lower maximum deceleration of the two that is retained for the design of the shock absorber, in addition to other criteria such as the need to absorb the entire potential energy of the radioactive contents in the event of a fall. axial, without risk of bottoming out of the damping system, or the need to limit the forces transmitted by the radioactive content on the cover fixing device.
- the invention relates to a package comprising radioactive content as well as packaging for the transport and/or storage of this content, the packaging comprising a lateral body extending around a longitudinal central axis of the packaging, as well as a bottom and a cover respectively arranged at the axial ends of the lateral packaging body and forming two closing members axial delimiting, with the lateral packaging body, a confinement enclosure in which the radioactive content is housed, the packaging also comprising an internal damping system housed in the confinement enclosure and arranged axially between the radioactive content and one of the two axial shutter members, called associated axial shutter member, the radioactive content comprising a storage device as well as one or more radioactive elements, the storage device delimiting one or more axial housings open axially in the direction of the associated axial shutter member, and in each of which at least one radioactive element is arranged.
- the internal shock absorber system comprises a first damping device by plastic deformation to cushion the storage device, as well as a second damping device by plastic deformation associated with a radioactive assembly formed of one or more elements radioactive, the first and second damping devices being arranged so as to operate independently of each other in the event of an axial fall of the package, the first damping device being associated with the following first parameters:
- the invention makes it possible to have a high-performance internal shock absorber system, having satisfactory compactness.
- each of the independent damping devices can thus be designed as precisely as possible, to improve the compactness of the whole.
- the invention is based on the observation that the radioactive elements can withstand greater decelerations than the storage device which houses them, or vice versa.
- the second associated damping device can therefore have a greater crushing stress, or a larger active surface, and therefore adopt a lower axial height synonymous with reduced bulk and greater compactness.
- the invention preferentially provides for the implementation of one or more of the following optional characteristics, taken individually or in combination.
- yz - Yi I / min (Yz, YI) is greater than 1.1.
- the internal damping system comprises one or more other second plastic deformation damping devices, each associated with a distinct radioactive assembly formed of one or more other radioactive elements, the first and second parameters of the first and second damping devices damping being such that the second representative value of deceleration y2 associated with each of at least several second damping devices, and preferably with each of all these second damping devices, is different from the first representative value of associated deceleration yi to the first damping device.
- the radioactive assembly associated with the second damping device, or with each second damping device is formed of a single radioactive element.
- each radioactive element is a nuclear fuel assembly, preferably a fresh fuel assembly, even more preferably of the MOX type, or a container/case of vitrified waste or technological waste, or a container/case of shells and end pieces , or even a case for transporting powder.
- each second damping device is formed from a single block of damping material, preferably made of metal foam, wood, honeycomb or even using a metal tubular structure.
- each second damping device may comprise several blocks spaced from each other and operating independently in the event of an axial fall of the package. In all cases, for the damping of radioactive elements, all blocks preferably have the same crushing stress.
- the first damping device is formed of several blocks of damping material spaced from each other, preferably made of foam, wood, honeycomb or even using a metal tubular structure. All these shock absorber blocks associated with the storage device preferably have the same crushing stress.
- the first damping device could be formed from a single block of damping material.
- the aforementioned blocks are cylindrical, or pyramidal in shape.
- the crushing stress 02 of the or each second damping device is different from the crushing stress 01 of the first damping device.
- identical crushing constraints can be retained for the first and second damping devices, without departing from the scope of the invention.
- the differentiated decelerations of the entities are controlled by the extent of the active surfaces of the first and second damping devices, or by the masses of the storage device and of each radioactive assembly.
- the first damping device and the or each second damping device all have an identical or substantially identical axial thickness.
- a thickness variation of around 10% maximum can be tolerated between the largest value and the lowest value.
- the first damping device and the or each second damping device are arranged in the same transverse plane of the package.
- the first damping device and the or each second damping device are arranged in the same envelope.
- the storage device comprises a perforated head plate, and the internal shock absorber system is preferably fixed on said perforated head plate.
- the internal damping system can be fixed on the associated axial closure member, for example the lid of the packaging, or simply be arranged freely between the storage basket and this associated axial closure member.
- the associated axial sealing member is the cover of the packaging, preferably mounted removably on the side packaging body.
- the associated axial sealing member is the bottom of the packaging. Indeed, even if there is no problem with holding the screws of the closure system on the bottom side, controlling decelerations in the event of an axial fall on the bottom side may also need to be taken into account in certain situations.

- FIG 7 shows a sectional view taken along line VI I -VII of Figure 6.
- FIG. 1 there is shown a package 100 for storing and/or transporting radioactive contents 12, in the form of a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
- the package 100 firstly comprises a package 1 provided with a lateral body 2, a bottom 4 and a removable cover 6 closing an opening of the package opposite the bottom 4.
- the package has a central axis longitudinal 8 around which the lateral body 2 extends, this axis 8 passing through the cover 6 and the bottom 4 respectively arranged at the front and rear ends of the lateral packaging body 2.
- the bottom 4 can be made in one piece with the body side of packaging 2.
- the cover 6 is attached to the front end of the lateral body 2, corresponding to the high end in the vertical position of the packaging shown in Figure 1.
- the fixing of this cover 6 is preferably produced using screwed elements 14, distributed around the periphery of the cover.
- the lateral body 2, the cover 6 as well as the bottom 4 delimit a confinement enclosure 10 used to house the radioactive content 12.
- the cover 6 and the bottom 4 thus form the two opposite members for axial closure of the confinement enclosure 10.
- the radioactive content 12, also centered on axis 8, comprises a storage device and one or more radioactive elements, here nuclear fuel assemblies, preferably fresh such as MOX fuel.
- the radioactive elements within the meaning of the invention could alternatively be containers/cases of vitrified waste, containers/cases of shells and tips, or even cases for transporting powder.
- the containers/cases housed in the storage device are also waterproof.
- the packaging can be equipped with shock-absorbing covers 20 respectively protecting the removable cover 6 and the bottom 4 of the packaging .
- Packaging 1 is also equipped with an internal shock absorber system 22 specific to the invention, shown only schematically in Figure 1.
- This internal shock absorber system 22 is housed in the confinement enclosure 12, axially between an internal surface 24 of the cover 6, and an axial end surface 26 of the radioactive content 12.
- the internal damping system 22 is fixed on the axial end surface 26 of the radioactive content 12, for example using screwed elements or by welding. It could alternatively be fixed on the internal surface 24 of the cover 6, or freely arranged between the radioactive content 12 and the cover 6.
- the internal damper system 22 can be arranged in several ways between the radioactive content 12 and its associated axial shutter member, formed by the removable cover 6.
- the radioactive contents 12 comprising the device/storage basket 30 and the nuclear fuel assemblies 32a-32f. These assemblies 32a-32f are each arranged in a housing 34 defined by the basket 30.
- the housings 34 are open axially at the level of a perforated head plate 36 of the basket, on which the internal damping system is intended to be fixed.
- the head plate 36 due to its perforated nature, thus forms the axial end of the housings 34.
- the axial end surface 26 of the radioactive content 12 is thus formed by the flat exterior surface of the head plate 36, and by the axial end surface of the assemblies 32a-32f located close to or in the same plane as the flat exterior surface of the head plate 36.
- each nuclear fuel assembly 32a-32f thus forms, within the meaning of the claimed invention, a radioactive assembly composed of a single radioactive element (the assembly as such).
- the first damping device 40 is here formed of several cylindrical blocks 40a-40e distributed around the periphery of the damping system 22 of generally cylindrical shape, and centered on the axis 8.
- Each of the blocks 40a-40e is thus cylindrical in axis orthogonal or substantially orthogonal to the flat exterior surface 26 of the head plate 36, in the direction of which these blocks are oriented.
- the latter are spaced from each other, and they are preferably made of foam, wood, honeycomb or even using of a metallic tubular structure, preferably with the same crushing stress oi (in MPa).
- the active surface Si (in m 2 ) of the first damping device 40 corresponds to the surface of the blocks 40a-40e intended to be impacted axially by the flat exterior surface 26 of the head plate 36, in the event of an axial fall of the package . More precisely, this active surface Si corresponds to the addition of the active surfaces Si a -Si e of all the blocks 40a- 40e forming the first damping device 40. These surfaces Si a -Si e correspond to the lower axial ends of the blocks 40a-40e, and they are very preferably all planar or substantially planar, orthogonal or substantially orthogonal to axis 8, and coplanar.
- each active surface Si a -Si e corresponds to the projected surface of the lower axial end of the block concerned, in a plane orthogonal to axis 8, and according to the direction of this same axis.
- each active surface Si a -Si e also corresponds, in terms of dimension and shape, to any cross section of its corresponding block 40a-40e.
- the blocks could have a pyramidal shape, the active surfaces could then vary depending on the thickness of the block and thus generate lower decelerations at the start of the impact.
- the general principle of the invention according to which the first and second parameters are such that the second representative value of deceleration y2 is different from the first representative value of deceleration yi is verified at each instant during an axial fall of the package leading the radioactive assembly to plastically crush the first and second damping devices.
- the mass Mi (in kg) corresponding to the mass of the basket 30 intended to be cushioned by the first damping device 40.
- the value of yi is determined, corresponding to a first value representative of the deceleration of the basket 30 in the event of an axial fall of the package causing this basket to plastically crush the first damping device 40.
- the internal damping system 22 also includes several second damping devices 50a-50f, each associated with one of the assemblies 32a-32g to cushion it in the event of an axial fall of the package.
- the second damping devices 50a-50f are independent of each other, and also independent of the blocks of the first damping device 40. This has the consequence that in the event of an axial fall of the package, each of these elements becomes plastically deforms freely, without being hindered by the deformation of other elements located at a distance. This independence of the blocks during their crushing is notably obtained due to the absence of a force distribution plate which is found in certain solutions of the prior art, and which is usually placed between the damping systems and the radioactive content. .
- each second damping device 50 is here formed of a single cylindrical block 50a-50f, the blocks being distributed at the periphery and in the center of the damping system 22, according to the same distribution as that of the assemblies 32a-32f.
- the blocks 50a-50f are thus cylindrical with axes orthogonal or substantially orthogonal to the flat exterior surface 26 of the head plate 36, as well as to the axial end surface of the nuclear fuel assemblies in the direction in which these are oriented. blocks 50a-50f, respectively.
- the blocks 50a-50f are spaced from each other, and also spaced from the blocks of the first damping device 40. They are preferably made of foam, wood or honeycomb, preferably with the same constraint of crushing stress 02 (in MPa), itself preferentially different from the aforementioned crushing stress 01.
- each second damping device 50a-50f corresponds to the surface of the block intended to be axially supported against the axial end surface of the associated assembly 32a-32f, in the event of an axial fall of the package.
- This surface S2 is therefore formed by the lower axial end of the damper block 50a-50f, which is very preferably planar or substantially planar, orthogonal or substantially orthogonal to the axis 8. All the active surfaces S2 are also preferentially coplanar.
- the active surface S2 corresponds to the projected surface of the lower axial end of this block, in a plane orthogonal to axis 8, and in the direction of this same axis.
- the active surface S2 also corresponds, in terms of size and shape, to any cross section of its corresponding block 50a-50f. In axial view, this active surface S2 also preferably corresponds, in size and shape, to that of the axial end surface of the associated assembly 32a-32f, a perfect or almost perfect correspondence being effectively sought between these two surfaces, in the direction of axis 8. However, the active surface S2 could be of smaller or larger dimension, without departing from the scope of the invention.
- the active surfaces S2 are represented schematically in the section of Figure 6 taken in the plane of these surfaces or in close proximity, orthogonal to axis 8, and one of them is also visible in Figure 7.
- the mass M2 (in kg) corresponds to the mass of each nuclear fuel assembly 32a-32f, intended to be damped by the second damping device 50a-50f located axially opposite it.
- the first and second aforementioned parameters are advantageously chosen such that the second value representative of deceleration y2 is different from the first representative value of deceleration yi.
- / min (y2, yi) is preferably greater than 1.1. This leads to reducing the overall size of the internal damper system 22, since the maximum admissible deceleration for the basket 30 is specifically taken into account, and that of each of the assemblies 32a-32f, often greater than that of the basket.
- Each of the independent damping devices 40, 50a-50f can thus be designed as precisely as possible, to improve the compactness of the assembly.
- the design is also retained by adapting the extent of the active surfaces Si, S2 so that all the blocks 40a-40e, 50a-50f are located in the same transverse plane of the package, having an identical or substantially identical axial thickness.
- the blocks 50a-50f could alternatively comprise an axial thickness greater than that of the blocks 40a-40e by extending axially in the housings of the basket by passing through the openings of the perforated head plate 36.
- This envelope 54 can be produced using two half-envelopes 54a, 54b welded at a central axial part of the system 22 and closed at its two axial ends by two disc-shaped plates 58a, 58b, these half-envelopes also being visible in Figures 4 and 5. It is noted that on this envelope 54, the closing plate 58b arranged facing/in contact with the radioactive content remains thin, so as to maintain the independence of operation of the different plastic deformation damping blocks 40a-40e, 50a-50f.
- this plate 58b in no way fulfills the function of a load distribution plate in the event of an axial fall of the package.
- the active surfaces Si, S2 of the blocks 40a-40e, 50a-50f are intended to be in contact with the interior surface of the plate 58b, even if axial clearances have been preserved in the representation of Figure 7, for reasons of clarity.
- packaging 1 could include a non-removable cover, for example welded to the side packaging body, so as to form a waterproof case enclosing the basket and radioactive elements, this case also being called a “canister”.
- the internal shock absorber system according to the invention could be associated with the bottom 4 of the packaging, without departing from the scope of the invention.
