ABSTRACTHigher burn-up (> 50 GWd/t) spent nuclear fuels (SNF) present problems for long-term management and disposal in mined repositories, principally because of their higher heat output. Here we present results from heat flow modeling of an alternative scheme for disposing of SNF - deep borehole disposal (DBD). We focus on how temperatures on the outer surface of the containers evolve, affect the melting and re-solidification of the high density support matrix (HDSM) and their consequences for the feasibility of this disposal concept. We conclude that not only is DBD a viable option for higher burn-up SNF, but it could be a practical disposal route for a range of combinations of SNF ages and number of fuel pins per container.
