l (2) Description i i The packaging is a right circular cylinder, 79 inches in diameter i j t by 199 inches overall height. The packaging outer shell consists i

of 84 evenly spaced vertical fins 151-1/2 inches long, attached to a 1-1/2-inch thick wall (fabricated from carbon steel and clad , l

! with stainless steel on the outer surface). The inner shell, the E l containment vessel, is 1-inch thick (having a 1/8-inch thich fl E

l rollbonded stainless steel cladding) whose base is 7 inches thick. l

The 9-7/16-inch annulus between the outer and inner shells is  !

ql filled with lead. The top of the container is covered with a '

i rotatable closure head fabricated of stainless steel 15 inches  :

u t

central region contains a secondary heat exchanger which is ll supported by the closure head. (This heat exchanger is not used i lll during shipment.) An inner backup cylinder, 21 inches in diameter, i I! occupies the central region of the containment vessel. The annulus i f between the backup cylinder and of the containment vessel shell lj 8l N
