Abstract
An apparatus arranged to control the temperature of uranium material in a uranium material storage container, comprising a thermal guide which wraps around an external surface of the uranium material storage container to cause the uranium material storage container to exchange heat energy with a heat transfer medium inside the thermal guide and a heat exchanger to heat or cool the heat transfer medium outside the thermal guide. A method of controlling the temperature of uranium material in a uranium material storage container is also described.
