Abstract

The invention discloses a system and method for improving natural circulation capability of a nuclear power system by utilizing reactor core waste heat. According to the system, based on a thought that waste heat (reactor core fuel waste heat, spent fuel waste heat and the like) is brought away by utilizing natural circulation in the nuclear power system, on the basis of weak drive force and low power conversion efficiency of an original natural circulation system, an external energy source is not introduced; excess heat of a heat source is recovered by using a designed thermoelectric power generation loop module and electric energy is generated; and then, an electric pump in a loop is driven by the generated electric energy to further drive fluid in the loop to flow, and therefore, the natural circulation capability of the system is greatly enhanced. Operation of the system depends on the own energy of the natural circulation system, and on the premise that the passive characteristicof the natural circulation system is not changed, cooling capability of the natural circulation system is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of natural circulation capability research in a nuclear power system, in particular to a system and method for improving the natural circulation capability of a nuclear power system by utilizing waste heat from a reactor core. Background technique [0002] The natural circulation system does not require external energy, and can transfer the heat energy of the heat source to the heat sink by relying on its own gravity difference. Because of this feature, natural circulation systems are used to remove waste heat from the core in the event of loss of off-site power after an accident. However, a major drawback of the natural circulatory system is the weak driving force. A weak driving force will lead to low heat transfer capability, system design constraints and functional failure. In the event of an accident, the waste heat of the core, such as the decay heat in the spent fuel pool, is far from enough to rely...
