Transport basket for defective spent nuclear fuel of heavy-water reactor

Abstract

The present invention relates to a transport basket for defective spent nuclear fuel of a heavy water reactor and, more particularly, to a transport basket for defective spent nuclear fuel of a heavy water reactor that can reduce the burden of a personnel when handling spent nuclear fuel in a test facility by minimizing a storage space and maximizing a thickness such that only a predetermined amount of spent nuclear fuel for soundness evaluation in the test facility can be transported. To this end, provided is a transport basket for defective spent nuclear fuel of a heavy water reactor, comprising: a basket body having a storage space and an internal support that partitions the storage space; a fuel pocket that is installed on one side of each storage space partitioned through the internal support and is installed so as to be rotatable toward the other side of the storage space, and has a detachable groove open in an upward direction such that a fuel case containing the spent nuclear fuel can be detached therefrom; and a cover that opens and closes the storage space of the basket body and is screwed to the basket body.
