NEUP CINR-22-26530: Quantifying Aerosol Deposition Mechanisms in Model Dry Cask Storage Systems

The objective of this work is to measure aerosol deposition and resuspension rates in laboratory models of dry cask storage systems to compare with and validate the DOE deposition model. We will conduct experiments to directly measure the deposition/resuspension rates of bulk aerosol in the system and to isolate and quantify individual aerosol deposition mechanisms, with a focus on those sensitive to variable humidity and surface temperature.
