Thermal assessments for design and active ventilation system of indoor dry storage facility of Chinshan Nuclear Power Plant
Dry storage of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and the cooling of fuel assemblies are essential for the nuclear industry. SNF will be stored in concrete dry casks and an indoor dry storage facility at the Chinshan Nuclear Power Plant. In this study, Ansys Fluent is used to simulate the symmetric boundaries of thermal cases and the ventilation characteristics of eight vertical dry storage casks for SNF as cylinders in the studied dry storage facility. Incompressible ideal gas is adopted in the simulation, and the low Reynolds k-ε turbulence model is used. The following parameters are analyzed in this study: (i) different heat loads, (ii) different arrangements, (iii) accident conditions, and (iv) installation of an active ventilation system at the outlet position of the dry storage systems (DSSs) in the facility. The results show that the DSS heat load, half-blockages, and arrangements significantly influence the temperature distribution in the facility. Installing an active ventilation system at the outlet position affects the staff and significantly decreases the temperature distribution in the facility. It is recommended that the rotational fan speed be set at 600 to 750 rpm for future designs. The results provide future design guidelines for indoor dry storage facilities.
