Abstract

The invention discloses a non-uniform electric heating nuclear fuel simulation rod and a test method thereof, and belongs to the field of reactor experimental research. The nuclear fuel simulation rodprovided by the invention is applied to critical heat flux density experimental research of nuclear fuel assemblies, and relates to the experimental research of thermal hydraulic performance of the fuel assemblies. The nuclear fuel simulation rod provided by the invention takes the situation that a current flows through a conductor to generate heat as the principle, and uses non-uniform heat generated along the axial direction of an electric heating rod to simulate non-uniform heat release along the axial direction of a nuclear fuel rod, so as to perform the critical heat flux density experimental research of the nuclear fuel assemblies.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of reactor test research, especially a test device and a test method using the test device. Background technique [0002] Critical heat flux is one of the key design parameters of nuclear fuel assemblies. At present, the critical heat flux of fuel assemblies cannot be predicted by theoretical methods, and can only be obtained through experiments. At the same time, nuclear fuel rods do not release heat uniformly along the axial direction, and the thermal environment at different axial heights is different. This factor must also be considered in the process of developing nuclear fuel assemblies. [0003] Prior to this application, there have been several devices for this test. For example, there is an electric heating rod reported in foreign literature, but the maximum working pressure of this device is only 40 bar, which is quite different from the actual pressure of the fuel assembly. This solution has not yet solve...
