Experimental Determination of Parameters Governing Heat-Induced Moisture Movement in A Clay Buffer
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 February 2011
Abstract
This paper discusses the experimental evaluation of the hygro-thermal parameters governing coupled heat and moisture movement within a moist clay buffer, which is developed as an engineered barrier for the isolation of heat emitting nuclear waste containers in either a borehole environment or in an in-room emplacement scheme.
