NEDE-33869P Revision 10 GNF Proprietary Information - Class II (Internal) 1-1 1.0 GENERAL INFORMATION This chapter of the Safety Analysis Report (SAR) presents an introduction and general description of the RAJ-II package. The major components comprising the RAJ-II package are presented in Figure 1-1 through Figure 1-4. Terminology and acronyms used throughout this document are presented in the Acronyms table. This package is intended to be used to transport unirradiated Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) fuel assemblies, BWR fuel rods, CANDU fuel rods, and Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) fuel rods, containing Type B fissile material. The fissile material can be in the form of uranium dioxide or uranium carbide enriched up to 5.0 weight percent (wt%) U-235.
1.1 INTRODUCTION
The model RAJ-II package number USA/9309/B(U)F-96, under docket 71-9309, has been developed to transport Type B fissile material. The analyses are performed under an NRC-approved quality assurance program documented in NEDO-11209-A, Revision 14 (Reference 1-1), which specifically complies with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 50 (10 CFR 50)
Appendix B requirements and is adopted to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 71, Subpart H for transportation of radioactive material.
The integrity of the fuel is maintained by the protective outer package, the insulated inner package and the fuel rod cladding through both Normal Conditions of Transport (NCT) and Hypothetical Accident Condition (HAC) deformations. A variety of full-scale engineering development tests were included as part of the certification process. Ultimately, two full-scale Certification Test Units (CTUs) were subjected to a series of free drops and puncture drops. The inner and outer containers provide both thermal protection as well as mechanical protection from drops or accident conditions.
Fuel rod cladding and welded end plugs form the containment vessel of the radioactive material contents transported in the RAJ-II package. The RAJ-II package is designed for shipment by truck, ship, or rail as a Type B fissile material package per the definition in 10 CFR 71.4 and 49 CFR 173.403. The requirements of Type B packages are demonstrated in Chapter 4 where the effective A2 and allowable leakage rates are provided in Section 4.5.
The payload within each RAJ-II package consists of a maximum of two unirradiated BWR fuel assemblies or individual rods (BWR, uranium carbide, or generic PWR) contained in a 5-inch stainless steel pipe, protective case or strapped together and positioned in one or both sides of the inner container. See Table 6-1 and Table 6-2 for the fuel loading criteria. The shielding and criticality assessments are provided in Chapter 5.0 and Chapter 6.0. The Transport Index (TI) for this package is based on the shielding assessments described in Chapter 5.0. The Criticality Safety Index (CSI) for the RAJ-II package is defined in Chapter 6.0. Section 6.1.3 provides the calculation of the CSI, where the CSI for fuel assemblies is 1.0 and the CSI for fuel rods is 1.6.
RAJ-II package dimensions identified in the text, tables, and figures of this SAR are intended to be nominal. The drawings provided in Section 1.3.1 contain the dimensions and the tolerances.
NEDE-33869P Revision 10 GNF Proprietary Information - Class II (Internal) 1-16 1.3 APPENDIX 1.3.1 RAJ-II General Arrangement Drawings This section presents the RAJ-II package general arrangement drawing consisting of 15 drawings entitled RAJ-II SAR Drawing listed in Section 1.3.1.1. Within the packaging general arrangement drawing, dimensions important to the packaging safety are dimensioned and toleranced. Other dimensions are provided as reference dimensions and are toleranced in accordance with the Japan Industrial Standard (JIS) B 0405. See Sections 2.1.4.1 and 2.1.4.2.
