Problems solved by technology

There are certain problems in the above pipe plugging criteria: (1) There are differences between the tube bundle materials, steam generator design specifications and service conditions, and eddy current detection technology of nuclear power units in my country and the assumed conditions of the above pipe plugging criteria. The applicability of nuclear power units needs to be further studied and clarified; (2) The above tube plugging criterion only compares the eddy current test results of the current overhaul with the minimum allowable wall thickness, and does not evaluate the wear state of the tube bundle in the next operating cycle

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of steam generator aging evaluation, in particular to a steam generator pipe bundle wear evaluation method. The method includes following steps: determining basic information of a to-be-evaluated heat transfer pipe; selecting applicable acceptance criteria according to design criteria and stress analysis report of the heat transfer pipe; determining wear defect depth h and wear defect length L of the to-be-evaluated heat transfer pipe; performing state monitoring evaluation on the to-be-evaluated heat transfer pipe. The evaluation method can realizestate monitoring evaluation of the to-be-evaluated heat transfer pipe, a prediction result of running evaluation after a previous maintenance period is finished can be verified during state monitoring, effectiveness of the running evaluation method can be judged, and guidance can be provided for formulating the running evaluation method. The evaluation method is of quite important value for reasonably controlling pipe blockage rate of a steam generator, ensuring heat exchange efficiency of the steam generator and prolonging service life of the steam generator.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of aging evaluation of steam generators, in particular to a method for evaluating the wear of steam generator tube bundles. Background technique [0002] The steam generator is one of the core main equipment of the pressurized water reactor nuclear power plant. It is mainly used as a heat exchanger to transfer the heat in the coolant of the primary circuit to the feed water of the secondary circuit, and generate saturated steam to supply the power plant of the secondary circuit. The tube bundle is composed of thousands of heat transfer tubes, which is the most critical heat exchange part of the steam generator. At the same time, as an important part of the pressure boundary of the primary circuit (the pressure bearing area accounts for about 80%), it is also an important safety barrier to prevent radioactive leakage. The heat transfer tube will be worn at the support structure during service. When the wear d...
