Licensing Approach

SAR Format: Regulatory Guide 7.9Structural Analysis

Use of ANSYS for General Conditions (71.43-45)LS-DYNA confirmed by Benchmark data for NCT (71.71) and HAC (71.73) analyses

Thermal Anal sis

14 November 2011 RT-100 Pre-Application Meeting

Thermal AnalysisUse of ANSYSAnalysis using maximum decay heat of resin payload

Shielding AnalysisUse of MicroShield, MCNPNo credit taken for Impact Limiters

11

Modeling

Computational Analysis Use of Benchmark data from testing of similar casks

over 10 yearse.g, R73 Type B(U) Cask and R74 Type B(U) Cask Approach qualified by previous Drop-Test data and cross-checked with LS-DYNA results
