NEUP CINR-21-24261: Internal Wireless Sensors for Dry Cask Storage

The effort will test the reliability of wireless, internal sensors after exposure to drying and storage conditions. These sensors the subject of previous DOE support are used to internally monitor temperature, pressure, and dose. Radiation shielding will also be designed to protect sensors during long-term storage. The effort will develop piezoelectric techniques for miniaturization of optical emission spectroscopy for internal monitoring of gas composition during drying and long-term storage
