Normal conditions of transport 4.1.

Loads The mechanical strength of the internal fittings is analysed in the cases of a lateral drop and an axial drop.

Since the elements providing axial wedging are analysed in accident conditions of transport (see section 5), their mechanical strength in normal conditions of transport is considered to be guaranteed.

Therefore this section only examines the lateral drop configuration. The acceleration considered for a lateral drop of 0.3 m is, which corresponds, according to the drop test analyses presented in appendix 6 of Chapter 1 of this file, to a vertical drop of 0.3 m on bottom corner, with the centre of gravity aligned with the point of impact.

4.2.

Mechanical analysis for 0.3 m lateral drop For a lateral drop, the components providing wedging of the gisete content are the rings.

When a lateral drop occurs, the rings are compressed by the weight of the radial wedge and the content. Only two of the three rings are assumed to absorb the drop loads.

In addition, the support length of the rings is assumed to correspond to the distance between two shell notches.

The compression stress in the rings is:

= x

Where:

mass of radial wedge and content, = + ;
transverse acceleration, = ;
surface area of rings when compressed,

= x x x

x ;

number of rings absorbing the loads, = 2.

Accident conditions of transport 5.1.

Loads The mechanical strength of the elements of the internal fittings that perform axial wedging of the content is analysed for the axial drop test representative of accident conditions of transport.

The mechanical strength of these elements makes it possible to guarantee the absence of any shifted impact effect of the content on the cask lid.

The acceleration considered for an axial drop of 9 m is, which corresponds, according to the drop test analyses presented in appendix 9 of Chapter 1 of this file, to a vertical drop of 9 m on the top end.

5.2.

Mechanical analysis for 9 metre axial drop For an axial drop, the elements providing wedging of the gisete content are the shell of the internal fitting for the gisete 4 content, the shell of the internal fitting for the gisete 5 content and the gusset plates on the internal fitting for the gisete 8 content.

5.2.1.

Shell strength When an axial drop on the top end occurs, the shell is compressed by the weight of the axial wedge, the radial wedge and the content.

The compression stress in the shell is:

= x

Where:

mass of axial wedge, radial wedge and content, = + + ;
vertical acceleration, = ;
surface area of the shell when compressed,

x((+2x)22) 4 In addition, it is verified that no shell buckling occurs.

The Euler load above which there is a risk of the shell buckling is calculated by the following formula:

the quadratic moment of the shell, =

x((+2x)44) 64 The load is compared with the load (= x ) undergone by the shell.

The compression stress in the gusset plates is:

Differential expansion This section verifies that expansion of the internal fittings due to the temperature increase does not close the gap between the internal fittings and the cask cavity, potentially creating additional stresses.

The verification is carried out for:

the radial wedge-cavity gap, the axial wedge-cavity gap.

The maximum temperature of the internal fittings in normal transport conditions is considered to be 100°C.

The thermal expansion coefficient of type A aluminium is 23.4.10-6 K-1 according to appendix 14 of Chapter 0A The expansion of the cask cavity is conservatively ignored.

6.1.

Axial expansion On a conservative basis, it is assumed that the maximum height of the internal fittings (radial wedge and axial wedge) is equal to the maximum height of the cask cavity, i.e. 1,081 mm according to the cask safety requirement drawing in appendix 0-1 of this file.

The value of the thermal expansion is given by the following formula:

= x x Where:

expansion due to temperature changes;
thermal expansion coefficient, = 23.4. 106 1;
height of the internal fitting, = 1,081 ;
difference between the initial and final temperature, = 20 ° and = 100 °.

The axial expansion obtained is given in the following table:

Axial thermal expansion of the internal fitting 2.0 mm According to the internal fittings safety requirement drawings in appendix 0A-14-1, the minimum axial gap between the internal fittings and the cask lid is:

J1 4 mm

DOS-18-011415-043 Version:

1.0 Page 12 of 12 NON PROPRIETARY VERSION The axial gap between the internal fittings and the lid is greater than the axial expansion of the internal fittings.

6.2.

Radial expansion The maximum wedge radius is 478 mm, according to the internal fittings safety requirement drawings in appendix 0A-14-1.

The value of the thermal expansion is given by the following formula:

= x x Where:

radial expansion due to a temperature change;
thermal expansion coefficient, = 23.4. 106 1;
maximum external radius of the wedge, = 478 ;
difference between the initial and final temperature, = 20 ° and = 100 °.

The radial expansion obtained is given in the following table:

Radial thermal expansion of the wedge 0.9 mm Thus, the maximum radius of the wedge after expansion is given by the following formula:

= +

The total radius of the wedge after expansion is given in the following table:

wedge radius after thermal expansion 478.9 mm This radius is less than the minimum radius of the TN-MTR cavity (480 mm).

The radial gap between the internal fittings and the cavity is not closed.

Conclusions The calculations in this chapter justify the mechanical strength of the internal fittings in normal and accident conditions of transport.
