CONTAINER TO TRANSPORT AND/OR STORE SPENT NUCLEAR FUEL Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC G21F5/08 

FIELD: power engineering.

SUBSTANCE: container comprises a body, which includes a sleeve with a bottom and a tight partition of the inner cavity of the sleeve. The sleeve is provided with an outer ribbed shell, which is installed coaxially to the sleeve and partially closes it along the length to form a tight cavity, where along the length a composite circular partition is installed, made of metal having high heat conductivity, which separates the volume of the specified tight cavity into an inner (central) and a peripheral parts. The inner part of the right cavity is filled with a priming composition providing for neutron protection. Longitudinal shaped elements made of metal having high heat conductivity are pulled via this composition and connect the sleeve with the circular partition. The sleeve and its bottom are made as a whole from a high-strength cast iron with globular graphite, and the outer shell - from stainless steel.

EFFECT: invention makes it possible to improve manufacturability of container vessel design and operating characteristics of a container.
