Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to nuclear power plant spent fuel storage design technology, in particular to a calculation method based on a new CFD (computational fluid dynamics) method coupled with a traditional thermal analysis method (single-channel model) to calculate the entire spent fuel pool The flow field, temperature field and storage grid are simulated more realistically. Background technique
[0002] At present, the PWR power plants built in China are all equipped with spent fuel storage pools. During the refueling overhaul, the core components are unloaded into the storage grids in the spent fuel storage pools. After the primary circuit is overhauled, some of them are unloaded. Components and new components are reloaded into the core, and another part of the spent fuel components with high burnup will be placed in the storage grid in the spent fuel pool for long-term storage.
