A Mountain-Scale Model for Characterizing Unsaturated Flow and Transport in Fractured Tuffs of Yucca Mountain
mountain-scale UZ flow model (Wu et al., 2003), which is in turn based on the analysis and results of the aboveWe present a large-scale modeling study characterizing fluid flow referenced work (as well as many other studies). Buildand tracer transport in the unsaturated zone (UZ) of Yucca Mountain, Nevada, the proposed underground repository site for storing highing on our previous investigatio...
متن کاملPreliminary Model of Acute Mountain Sickness Severity
Altitude illness severely limits operational effectiveness of dismounted Warriors in mountainous terrains. Commanders, therefore, need accurate estimates and predictors of Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS), the most common altitude illness, to effectively plan and manage missions to altitude. Purpose The purpose of this project was to utilize the USARIEM Mountain Medicine relational database (26 st...
متن کاملEvolution of the unsaturated zone testing at Yucca Mountain.
The evaluation of the Yucca Mountain site has evolved from intensive surface-based investigations in the early 1980s to current focus on testing in underground drifts. Different periods of site characterization activities and prominent issues concerning the unsaturated zone (UZ) are summarized. Data collection activities have evolved from mapping of faults and fractures to estimation of percola...
متن کاملYucca Mountain ventilation studies support and associated code enhancements
This paper presents the results of the application of CFD to ventilation calculations at Yucca Mountainusing MULTIFLUX. Seven cases were selected to study the effect of the heat transport coefficient onthe drift wall temperature distribution. It was concluded that variable heat transport coefficients suchas those given by the differential–parameter CFD used in MULTIFLUX are consider...
متن کاملIn the Proposed Yucca Mountain Repository near Field
This letter provides comments and recommendations on the importance of chemical phenomena in the near field to the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE's) Yucca Mountain Repository proposed License Application (LA). This letter also transmits the attached "white paper" by Raymond Wymer titled "Chemistry in the Proposed Yucca Mountain Repository Near Field." In his paper Dr. Wymer examines some chem...
