Abstract
The surface temperature of the fuel rod is one of the most important subjects for the safety evaluation of the integrity of the dry type cask storage system at reactors. This report presents the results of thermal tests on the full scale cask model and thermal analysis by precise estimation of the surface temperature of spent fuel rods to contribute to the safety evaluation of the fuel rods during storage.
