Definitions

  • the invention relates to a radiation shielding device located at the outer surface of transport or storage containers for materials radioactive to ensure safety.
  • Containers for radioactive material generally include a envelope of great height comprising a cylindrical body and sealing means closing it at its two ends in a sealed manner; in the internal cavity thus defined takes up said radioactive materials, in particular irradiated fuel assemblies or vitrified waste.
  • This envelope must mechanically withstand impacts even the most severe, provide biological protection against radiation and ensure thermal transfer to dissipate the heat emitted by the materials radioactive.
  • the cylindrical body essentially consists of a ferrule thick metal, for example based on cast or forged steel, cast iron, or a sandwich stacking of different metals; body thickness can reach several tens of centimeters and the container weight 100 to 150t.
  • the body often has fins on its outer surface to ensure better dispersion of heat in the atmosphere.
  • the fins can be fixed by bolting or welding, or be formed at the same time as the container when it is obtained by casting.
  • Thick metal body provides most of the protection biological, but is generally not sufficient to ensure the entire neutron protection.
  • Application FR 2521764 describes a particular embodiment of the type of protection using housings filled with neutron shield material, which comes to be mentioned.
  • the boxes are made up of very long profiles open longitudinally whose cross section is V-shaped at an angle obtuse apex.
  • the profiles are arranged side by side, parallel to the axis of the container and in close thermal contact with the metal shell then welded to said ferrule and between them so as to form the so-called large closed boxes length.
  • the housings are equipped with fins on their outer face.
  • these boxes After being placed on the shell, these boxes are then filled individually of neutron absorbing resin by casting through their open end.
  • the Applicant has sought a shielding device by housings more simple to carry out to reduce the cost and also to improve the safety of the operations of making the boxes, of their fixing directly on the shell and their filling in radiation absorbing material, while improving contact and thermal evacuation. She also looked for a simpler and more method of fitting said shielding devices sure.
  • the invention is a radiation protection device for transport and / or storage container for radioactive materials comprising a plurality of adjacent metal boxes fixed to the outer wall of the container and filled with at least one neutron absorbing material, characterized in that each case mainly comprises a profile essentially closed tubular metal part longitudinally.
  • the container usually includes a thick metal ferrule cylindrical of great length on the outside face of which is fixed a plurality of closed or hollow tubular profiles in one piece according to the invention.
  • Said profile typically has a closed polygonal cross section, of preferably with 4 sides corresponding to 4 longitudinal sides, and can be closed at its ends.
  • a closed polygonal cross section of preferably with 4 sides corresponding to 4 longitudinal sides, and can be closed at its ends.
  • it is obtained by direct spinning and does not has no longitudinal weld or other closing means.
  • the absence of longitudinal welding or any other means of closing equivalent guarantees the case a perfect and unalterable seal during time; it is indeed essential that the resin is not likely to deteriorate and whatever happens, all of its neutron shield properties remain.
  • It is generally made of metal, preferably a good conductor of heat like aluminum or its alloys, copper or its alloys ... It is fixed on said external face of the shell, parallel to its axis, typically by bolting, so that there is good thermal contact between said housing and said ferrule and between adjacent housings. All the boxes adjacent generally covers the entire outer surface of the shell.
  • the outer face of the housing in contact with the ambient air is advantageously provided with cooling fins spun with the profile or fixed on it by any other means.
  • the profile is filled with neutron shield material, for example by pouring into it a resin with a high hydrogen content.
  • the invention is especially advantageous when it is necessary to increase the protection against gamma radiation. It is then particularly simple to secure inside each profile constituting the housing, before their filling with resin and fixing them to the container, at least one plate metal, usually a heavy metal such as lead or its alloys, or a sandwich of plates of different metals chosen and assembled so as to simultaneously obtain optimal biological protection and good solidity of the assembly.
  • This plate is located as close as possible to the container wall, i.e. typically in contact with the wall of the profile which is supported on the ferrule.
  • a lead plate covered by a protective steel plate to facilitate its fixing; this last is usually done using bolts going through the plates steel, lead and the housing wall in contact with the shell, screwed into said ferrule.
  • Such a device makes it possible, in the event of an impact, to better retain the lead plate preventing it from coming to weigh directly on the walls of the case with the risk of deforming them.
  • the invention also relates to a method of fitting a device radiation protection for transport container and / or storage of radioactive materials comprising a plurality of housings adjacent metal fixed to the outer wall of the container and container at least one neutron absorbing material characterized in that one introduces in the housing at least one biological screen material and which is then fixed said housing containing the biological screen material on the outer wall of said container.
  • the installation of the device according to the invention is therefore particularly simple. and can be done in two stages. First you just need to install optionally the lead plate and / or any other metal, then to sink said neutron shield material directly inside the profile; the profile thus prepared is then fixed on the container shell.
  • the bolting operations of the case on the ferrule can be done by lights made in the face of the profile opposite to that which is in contact with the ferrule, lights which are then properly plugged in.
  • Figure 1 illustrates the device according to the invention. It represents a container for radioactive material seen in section and the detail of a view, always in section, of two adjacent housings according to the invention.
  • Each of them essentially consists of a metal profile (5) hollow, closed longitudinally, with 4 long sides; of cooling fins (6) are located on the outer face of said profiles.
  • the inner face (7) is conformed to the outer face of the ferrule (1) of so as to ensure good thermal contact.
