Abstract
Sandia National Laboratories (Sandia), a U.S. Department of Energy National Laboratory, has over 30 years experience in the assessment of radioactive waste disposal and at the time of this publication is providing assistance internationally in a number of areas relevant to the safety assessment of radioactive waste disposal systems. In cooperation with the Republic of Taiwan's Institute of Nuclear Engineering and Research (INER), Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) has developed software that provides an interface between a deterministic far field mass transport code and GoldSim (a commercial software used to conduct Monte Carlo analyses). The SNL developed software enables INER to perform probabilistic simulations for safety analysis and performance assessment of geologic disposal of commercial spent nuclear fuel. The following report details the software design, the steps necessary to use the software, and presents an example application of the paradigm of coupling deterministic codes to a contemporary probabilistic software application.
