Heat Transfer Simulation of Fuel Transport Cask for High Temperature Gas Cooled Reactor

The heat transfer process（conduction, convection, and radiation） of the transport cask for the high temperature gas cooled reactor is simulated by CFX code. The calculation shows that every component of the cask is below its limit temperature, so the thermal design of the cask could meets the transport standard. The result is compared with the fire-experimentation, which shows the calculation model is conservative and rational.
