Abstract

This study examines the potential use of ultrasonic signals for detecting abnormalities in a spent nuclear fuel (SNF) storage canister. It is very difficult and, in some cases, not feasible to open sealed SNF canisters. Therefore, techniques to determine the integrity of contents of SNF canisters are needed as these packages need to be transported to interim of permanent storage in the near future. In this part of the work, a noise cancellation technique is developed so as to detect a gas signal that travels through the SNF canister, and that information is proposed to be used for detecting abnormalities in the sealed package. Optimization was used to cancel signals travelling through the solid in a multitransducer configuration. Promising results were obtained in terms of noise cancellation.
