The main characteristics, such as temperatures of the fuel rod cladding and cask surface, dose rates at the surface and at the some distance for CASTOR RBMK-1500 and CONSTOR RBMK-1500 casks loaded with spent nuclear fuel are presented. These casks are used for an interim dry storage of spent nuclear fuel at Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant. Numerical modeling (calculation of the equivalent dose rates, activities of nuclides, etc.) and experimental measurements of the equivalent dose and gamma spectrum on the cask surface at the dry storage facility were performed for assessment of radiation characteristics. Temperatures were evaluated using only numerical modeling. Rather good agreement between experimentally determined and calculated dose rates for CASTOR RBMK-1500 and CONSTOR RBMK-1500 casks was obtained. Also it was revealed that maximum fuel rod cladding temperature is higher for CONSTOR RBMK-1500 cask, but never exceeds the maximum allowable value. The cask surface temperatures are similar for both cask types.
