Generic Disposal System Model for Granite: Potential Application to Joint Fuel Cycles Studies
The following is intended as a possible approach to support Phase 1 Task 1 of the Joint Fuel Cycles Studies collaboration between the Republic of Korea (ROK) and the US DOE Nuclear Energy Used Fuel Disposition Campaign (UFDC). In this approach UFDC is providing ROK with a brief description of our simplified granite generic disposal system (GDS) model, as it has been implemented in our Generic Performance Assessment Model (GPAM). A more detailed description of the original, stand alone, granite GDS model and GPAM appears in the UFD FY 11 report (Clayton, et. al., 2011), which was provide as an attachment to an earlier email to Task 1 ROK counterparts. Additionally, UFDC is providing the input data sets (parameter, values, descriptions and uncertainty) used to implement the stand alone granite GDS model into GPAM, as a starting point.
