Abstract (en)
[origin: US2007274430A1] Transport and storage of nuclear fuel assemblies may require double confinement depending on the circumstances. A device and a method are described to perform this double conditioning without the need of a hot containment, and in which the loading and pre-positioning steps can take place in a pool. The device ( 10 ) includes a metallic inner leak tight conditioning receptacle ( 20 ) and a metallic outer leak tight receptacle ( 30 ). When the inner receptacle ( 20 ) is located in the outer receptacle ( 30 ), a passage ( 15, 25 ) remains free between the two receptacles, from the open end to the bottom of the outer receptacle. The outer receptacle ( 30 ) can be drained through this passage, particularly by a dip tube ( 33 ).
