초록

암반의 역학적 및 열적 특성은 고준위방사성폐기물(high-level radioactive waste; HLW) 심지층 처분시스템 내 방사성 물질의 격리 및 이동 지연 능력과 관련된 성능에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 이 연구는 HLW 처분시설 부지의 암반역학적 및 열적 특성과 관련된 부지설명모델에 필수적인 항목을 고찰하고 스웨덴과 핀란드의 선행 부지설명모델 사례를 통한 기술적 배경을 논의하였다. 스웨덴 SKB (Swedish Nuclear and Fuel Management Company)와 핀란드 Posiva는 암반역학적 및 열적 특성 조사·평가에 필수적인 항목을 제시하고 부지의 안전성 분석과 처분시설의 건설을 위한 암반역학 부지설명모델을 도출하였다. 암반역학 부지설명모델은 처분시설 부지 내 응력 분포와 더불어 신선암, 절리, 절리성 암반에 대한 강도 및 변형특성과 대규모 변형대의 기하학적 구조, 소규모 불연속면의 연결망 구조 및 암석의 열적 특성에 대한 조사·평가 결과를 포함한다. 또한, 암반역학 부지설명모델은 입력변수에 대한 민감도 분석결과와 입력변수의 불확실성에 대한 평가 결과를 제시하여야 한다.

The mechanical and thermal properties of the rock masses can affect the performance associated with both the isolating and retarding capacities of radioactive materials within the deep geological disposal system for High-Level Radioactive Waste (HLW). In this study, the essential parameters for the site descriptive model (SDM) related to the rock mechanics and thermal properties of the HLW disposal facilities site were reviewed, and the technical background was explored through the cases of the preceding site descriptive models developed by SKB (Swedish Nuclear and Fuel Management Company), Sweden and Posiva, Finland. SKB and Posiva studied parameters essential for the investigation and evaluation of mechanical and thermal properties, and derived a rock mechanics site descriptive model for safety evaluation and construction of the HLW disposal facilities. The rock mechanics SDM includes the results obtained from investigation and evaluation of the strength and deformability of intact rocks, fractures, and fractured rock masses, as well as the geometry of large-scaled deformation zones, the small-scaled fracture network system, thermal properties of rocks, and the in situ stress distribution of the disposal site. In addition, the site descriptive model should provide the sensitivity analysis results for the input parameters, and present the results obtained from evaluation of uncertainty.
