چکیده

We present a software-tool for the simulation of a transport and reaction model for a potential waste scenarios of a radioactive waste-disposals. We introduce the complex model for the transport-, reactionand sorption-processes. The model is based on systems of linear convection-diffusiondispersion-reaction equations with equilibrium sorption. The discretisation is done with finite volume discretisation and a reconstruction with higher order polynoms. The convection-reaction term is explicit discretised with embedded analytical solutions. The diffusion-dispersion-term is discretised with implicit methods and the solvers use the BiCGStab with multi-grid methods. We focus us to the simulation of a 2d and 3d test case which we present with different gridand time-step-refinements. The potential waste scenario for 2d and 3d is discussed. At the end we will discuss the further works.

Preliminary 3-D site-scale studies of radioactive colloid transport in the unsaturated zone at Yucca Mountain, Nevada.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is actively investigating the technical feasibility of permanent disposal of high-level nuclear waste in a repository to be situated in the unsaturated zone (UZ) at Yucca Mountain (YM), Nevada. In this study we investigate, by means of numerical simulation, the transport of radioactive colloids under ambient conditions from the potential repository horizon to...

Radionuclide transport Flux Hydraulic conductivity Radioactive waste Vadose zone Sensitivity analysis RETENTION: Permanent Sensitivity Analysis for I-129 Wastes: Effect of Hydraulic Conductivity

Solid low-level radioactive wastes at the Savannah River Site (SRS) are disposed in trenches. In order to determine the permissible radioactive inventory limits for such disposal facilities, it is required to assess the behavior of radioactive waste material over long periods of time. The sensitivity of flow and I-129 (and similar radionuclides) transport in groundwater in the vadose zone to th...

Evaluating changes of transport properties of chemically degrading concrete using a coupled reactive transport model

This paper presents a model to simulate chemical degradation of concrete due to leaching. The model considers simultaneously the multi-scale nature of concrete, a thermodynamic description of cement phases, and time-variable transport properties. It is implemented in the generic simulator HP1, which simulates the reactive transport in variably-saturated porous media. To illustrate the capabilit...

Radiological dose assessment of naturally occurring radioactive materials generated by the petroleum industry in wildlife: A case study of chinkaras of Lavan Island, Iran

Human activities such as oil and gas production can enhance the natural level of naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM) in by-product and waste streams. Iran has been among the top five oil producing countries since 2005. This high production rate emphasizes the importance of NORM management to ensure the safety of humans and wildlife. Petroleum storage and transport facilities are lo...

The GEOTHER/VT4 computer code is an improved version of the GEOTHER computer code. The GEOTHER/VT4 code was applied to a two-dimensional simulation of a waste package in a high-level waste repository to predict the thermal-hydraulic environment where steam formation may occur. The thermal-hydraulic environment is important for assessing waste package container corrosion and packing material swe...
