Abstract

Abstract The calculations for performance assessment of the Mochovce Radioactive Waste Disposal Facility in Slovakia were made by means of modified computer codes MODEMO, NUCDSLB and LAKE. During recent years computer codes DUST-MS, MODFLOW/MT3DMS and BS for source term, ground water flow and transport of radionuclides through ground water and biosphere respectively were implemented in the framework of the performance assessment iterative process. This paper describes results of comparison of the both approaches for source term and groundwater flow.

Key findings

  • Results of comparison of two approaches for source term and groundwater flow show differences in calculated values.
  • New implementations of computer codes DUST-MS, MODFLOW/MT3DMS, and BS show improved accuracy in performance assessment.
  • Comparison of results highlights the importance of iterative process in performance assessment.
