“…Rather severe limitations are imposed on the level of heat release from disposed wastes. It is suggested that, before final disposal, radwastes should be stored for a long time in transient repositories, where the rate of heat release drops relatively rapidly (Wang et al, 1989;Rybal'chenko et al, 1994). Thus, in practice, M cannot MALKOVSKY, PEK markedly exceed the value of 500 W/m used in the computation.…”

“…A permeability of 10 -16 m 2 is typical of crystalline rocks having poorly developed fractures and located beyond fault zones. M = 504 W/m corresponds to the initial linear density of heat release when one container is disposed of in each 4 m of the loaded well portion (Wang et al, 1989). It should be noted that, at h ≥ 50 m and at parameters of the system that fit curve 1 in Fig.…”

“…According to [5], the permeability, k, of tuffs is usually within the range 1QI6_1o-17 mQ. Let us assume that k= w- Waste heat generation at t = 0 is assumed, as in [5], to be equal to 2.16 kWicanister. Then if the ·repository is loaded in such a way that each canister occupies 2 m of well length, we obtain Mroo = 1080 Wlm.…”

“…This spontaneous process is one of the primary potential hazards for the long-term safety of the repository site [5]. Therefore, a reasonably achievable decrease of the risk caused by thermoconvective transport of radionuclides is one of the repository design requirements [2,6].…”
