VENTILATED SYSTEM FOR STORING HIGH LEVEL RADIOACTIVE WASTE |
| 摘要 |
A system for storing high level radioactive waste. In one embodiment, the invention can be a system comprising an overpack body extending along a vertical axis and having a cavity for storing high level radioactive waste, the cavity having an open top end and a floor; an overpack lid positioned atop the overpack body to enclose the open top end of the cavity; an air inlet vent for introducing cool air into the cavity, the air inlet vent extending from an opening in an outer surface of the overpack body to an opening in the floor; and an air outlet vent in the overpack lid for removing warmed air from the cavity. |

1. A system for storing high level radioactive waste comprising:
an overpack body extending along a vertical axis and having a cavity for storing high level radioactive waste, the cavity having an open top end and a floor; an overpack lid positioned atop the overpack body to enclose the open top end of the cavity; an air inlet vent for introducing cool air into the cavity, the air inlet vent extending from an opening in an outer surface of the overpack body to an opening in the floor, the opening in the outer surface of the overpack body extending about an entirety of a circumference of the outer surface of the overpack body; and an air outlet vent in the overpack lid for removing warmed air from the cavity. |
