Abstract

The invention discloses a reactor core melt trapping device. The reactor core melt trapping device comprises a trapping cylinder having a crucible form and used for trapping a reactor core melt, the trapping cylinder is located below the pressure vessel of a reactor, the pressure vessel of the reactor is arranged in the reactor pit of the reactor, the bottom of the reactor pit of the reactor is connected with the opening of the trapping cylinder by a communication channel, the reactor core melt trapping device further comprises a first partition assembly, the first partition assembly divides the trapping cylinder into at least two trapping chambers which are sequentially sleeved from the outside to the inside, and the inlets of the trapping chambers are communicated with the opening of thetrapping cylinder. When severe nuclear accidents occur, the first partition assembly divides the trapping cylinder into the at least two trapping chambers which are sequentially sleeved from the outside to the inside, so the coolability of the melt is enhanced, the cooling efficiency of the melt is improved, the volume of the trapping device is effectively reduced, the melt is reduced in areas, the accident post-treatment of the reactor is greatly simplified, and the radiation dose received by workers is effectively reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nuclear power, and in particular relates to a reactor core melt collection device. Background technique [0002] After the serious accidents at the Three Mile Island and Chernobyl nuclear power plants, the nuclear power industry began to focus on research and research on the prevention and mitigation of severe accidents. Due to engineering and other requirements. When a serious accident occurs in a pressurized water reactor nuclear power plant, the loss of core waste heat removal means will evaporate and exhaust the coolant, the core will be exposed and continue to heat up, the fuel elements will melt due to the loss of cooling, and the core melt will fall into the pressure vessel ( RPV) lower chamber, which in turn causes the failure of the lower head of the pressure vessel. If effective measures cannot be taken to cool it, the core melt may melt through the pressure vessel. After the pressure vessel m...
