Evaluating the Moisture Conditions in the Fractured Rock at YuccaMountain The Impact of Natural Convection Processes in HeatedEmplacement Drifts.

Evaluating the Moisture Conditions in the Fractured Rock at YuccaMountain [electronic resource] : The Impact of Natural Convection Processes in HeatedEmplacement Drifts.

The energy output of the high-level radioactive waste to beemplaced in the proposed geologic repository at Yucca Mountain, Nevada,will strongly affect the thermal-hydrological (TH) conditions in thenear-drift fractured rock. Heating of rock water to above-boilingconditions will induce large water sa...
