摘要:
The invention relates to a method for producing a coating for absorption of neutrons produced in nuclear reactions of radioactive material which can be applied in an economically feasible and simple manner, increases the effectivity of absorption, enables greater variability of base material used and variability of shape of said shielding elements and in particular the production of lighter shielding elements with at least the same absorption quality. The invention also relates to a method for producing a coating for absorption of neutrons produced in nuclear reactions of radioactive materials. At least one part of a shielding element consisting of base material is provided at its surface designed therefore with a layer made of an element with a high neutron capture section and a metallic element in a dispersion bath. Said metallic element can be deposited by electrolytic or autocatalytic means. During the coating process, a relative movement between a surface to be coated and a dispersion bath is effected at least temporarily, whereby the element with a larger neutron capture section is present in an electrically conducting compound in said dispersion bath.

A storage/transport container for radioactive material has a metallic outer shell, a metallic inner shell concentrically received in the outer cell and defining therewith an annular space, and an annular and continuous heat-conductive meander strip in the space. The strip is formed unitarily with a plurality of angularly spaced inner segments engaging the inner shell, respective angularly spaced outer segments engaging the outer shell, and respective generally radially extending webs extending between the inner and outer segments.

A transport/storage container for spent nuclear-fuel elements has spaced inner and outer side walls defining an annular space extending along an axis, a cover at one end of the side walls, a floor at an opposite end of the side walls, and a plurality of heat-conducting elements in the space and each having one edge fixed, for instance by welding or bolting, to one of the side walls and an opposite edge bearing radially elastically on the other of the side walls.

A storage/transport container comprises a floor, a side wall, and a cover fittable with the side wall to form with the floor and side wall a closed interior having a height between an inner face of the floor and an inner face of the cover that is greater than an overall length of the element. A spring is engaged between a lower end of the rod and the floor and has a spring force smaller than a weight of the rod so that, when the cover is above the floor, an upper end of the rod is spaced below the cover and, when the floor is above the cover, the spring presses the rod upper end against the cover.

A radiation-shielding storage/transport container has a cast-iron vessel having an open end defining an end face, a steel ring engaging the end face and forming at least one annular seat, a weld unitarily bonding the ring to the end face, and a cover secured to the steel ring in the seat thereof. The cast-iron vessel is formed at its open end with an annular seat having a shoulder surface forming the end face. The weld is an aluminothermic weld that extends over the entire surface of the interface between the ring and the vessel. The ring is formed with two such seats and the cover includes an inner plug cover and an outer cover each in a respective one of the seats. The outer cover is of steel and a second peripheral weld connects the outer cover to the respective seat.
摘要:
A storage/transport container for radioactive material is made by first subdividing a chamber formed between an inner shell and an outer shell into first and second compartments by means of a foraminous partition having a predetermined maximum mesh size. Then an aggregate of a predetermined minimum particle size greater than the predetermined maximum mesh size is introduced into one of the compartments and a suspension of cement and water is introduced into the first compartment such that the aggregate remains in the one compartment and the cement and water flow through the partition into the second compartment. Normally the aggregate and the suspension are both introduced into the same compartment.
