[0083] Example 1

[0084] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment discloses a design method for a hydrogen recombiner arrangement scheme in a nuclear power plant containment, the method comprising:

[0085] Step 1, determining the total number of hydrogen recombiners;

[0086] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the determination of the total number of hydrogen recombiners comprises the following steps:

[0087] Step 1-1, conduct severe accident phenomenon analysis of nuclear power plants and identify uncertainty parameters affecting hydrogen concentration;

[0088] Step 1-2, sampling the uncertainty parameters;

[0089] Step 1-3, performing uncertainty calculation of hydrogen concentration to obtain the volume concentration of hydrogen in the containment;

[0090] Step 1-4, build a hydrogen generation-recombination model based on hydrogen concentration, and use the hydrogen generation-recombination model to calculate the total number of hydrogen recombiners.

[0091] In some embodiments, the uncertainty parameters include containment pressure, hydrogen release time, core zirconium loading, containment volume, containment temperature and other parameters, which are identified through analysis results combined with engineering experience and expert judgment.

[0092] In some embodiments, the sampling of the uncertainty parameter may be performed using a Latin hypercube method, and the number of samples is implemented with reference to the Wilks sampling theory. Specifically, the number of samples for sampling the uncertainty parameter is calculated according to the following formula:

[0093] β=1-γ N

[0094] In the formula, β is the confidence level, N is the number of samplings, and γ is the probability. When γ and β are both 95%, we get N = 59, that is, the minimum number of samplings is 59, which can meet the "95 / 95 criterion".

[0095] In some embodiments, the uncertainty calculation of hydrogen concentration to obtain the hydrogen volume concentration in the containment vessel comprises the following steps:

[0096] (1) Calculate the volume V of hydrogen under standard conditions;

[0097] Specifically, based on the zirconium-water reaction equation and the amount of zirconium in the reactor m (kg), the hydrogen volume V (m 3 ), where the zirconium water reaction equation is:

[0098] Zr+2H 2 O→ZrO 2 +2H 2 ↑

[0099] (2) Based on the sampling sensitivity parameters and the hydrogen volume V under standard conditions, the hydrogen volume concentration in the containment is calculated.

[0100] In this embodiment, the sensitive parameters include containment pressure, containment temperature, core zirconium loading and containment volume, but are not limited thereto.

[0101] In some embodiments, a hydrogen generation-compound model is built based on hydrogen concentration, and the total number of hydrogen recombiners is calculated using the hydrogen generation-compound model. The entire calculation process is guided by a 10% hydrogen concentration risk to meet the regulatory requirement that the hydrogen concentration in the containment cannot exceed 10%.

[0102] Specifically, the total number of hydrogen recombiners is calculated as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0103] (1) Start by initializing the parameters, setting t = 0, n = 1,

[0104] (2) According to formula F H2 (t+1)=F H2 (t)+F release (t)-F recom (t), let t = t + Δt, and perform iterative calculation, where:

[0105] ——the volume fraction of hydrogen in the containment at time t;

[0106] n——the total number of hydrogen recombiners;

[0107] F release (t)——the volume fraction of hydrogen released at time t;

[0108] F recom (t)——the volume fraction of composite hydrogen at time t;

[0109] T——hydrogen release time, s;

[0110] Δt——time step, s.

[0111] (3) Determine whether t is less than T, where:

[0112] If so, that is, t<T, then update F recom (t), and return to step (2) to continue iterative calculation;

[0113] If not, that is, t ≥ T, then further determine F H2 (t) Is <10%, where:

[0114] If not, then F H2 (t) ≥ 10%, then set n = n + 1, t = 0, and update F recom (t), and return to step (2) to continue iterative calculation;

[0115] If so, F H2 (t)<10%, then the process ends, and n at this time is the total number of hydrogen recombiners.

[0116] Step 2, determine the number of hydrogen recombiners in the compartment, such as Figure 2 As shown, specifically including:

[0117] Step 2-1, select severe accident sequences.

[0118] In some implementations, the accident selection basis for selecting a severe accident sequence includes:

[0119] 1) The selected accident sequence includes important accident types in the safety analysis of nuclear power plants, including main pipeline rupture, coolant leakage, power loss, heat sink loss, etc.;

[0120] 2) considering the most unfavorable hydrogen source characteristics, wherein the most unfavorable hydrogen source characteristics include large quantity, large release rate, etc.;

[0121] 3) Covering the most unfavorable containment operating conditions, including conditions where the possibility of hydrogen convection is small.

[0122] Step 2-2: Conduct risk analysis on the selected severe accident sequences and determine the hydrogen risk compartments.

[0123] In some embodiments, performing risk analysis on the selected severe accident sequence to determine the hydrogen risk compartment comprises the following steps:

[0124] Build a severe accident analysis model for nuclear power plants;

[0125] Based on the severe accident analysis model of nuclear power plants, the selected severe accident sequences are calculated and the deflagration-detonation transition (DDT) risk of each compartment under various accident conditions is analyzed;

[0126] Identify hydrogen risk compartments based on the risk of deflagration-explosion transition.

[0127] In this embodiment, an integrated program (such as MAAP, full name Modular Accident Analysis Program) is specifically used to build a nuclear power plant severe accident analysis model to calculate the selected severe accident sequence. The DDT risk analysis calculation can be specifically referred to the Sherman-Berman method, which is not described here one by one.

[0128] Step 2-3, conduct a sensitivity analysis on the number of hydrogen recombiners in the risk compartment to determine the number of hydrogen recombiners in the compartment.

[0129] In some embodiments, the sensitivity analysis of the number of hydrogen recombiners in the risk compartment to determine the number of hydrogen recombiners in the compartment can comprehensively consider the DDT risk benefits brought by different numbers of hydrogen recombiners, the space and economy of the compartment, which includes the following steps:

[0130] First, the DDT risk probability curve in the compartment is calculated as the number of hydrogen recombiners increases;

[0131] Then, based on engineering judgment, the number of hydrogen recombiners in the compartment is determined according to the DDT risk probability curve, the size of the compartment space, and the cost of the hydrogen recombiners.

[0132] Step 3: Determine the layout plan of the hydrogen recombiners according to the total number of hydrogen recombiners and the number of recombiners in each compartment.

[0133] It should be noted that the arrangement of the hydrogen recombiners in this embodiment includes two aspects: 1) the total number of hydrogen recombiners; 2) the number of hydrogen recombiners in each compartment, without considering the specific position of the recombiners in the compartment.

[0134] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the method also includes:

[0135] Step 4: Analyze the effectiveness of the hydrogen recombiner layout plan.

[0136] Specifically, an integrated program is used to establish a severe accident analysis model for nuclear power plants, taking into account the layout of the hydrogen recombiner. For example, the hydrogen concentration in the large space and the DDT risk in the compartment are mainly considered, and the effectiveness of the hydrogen recombiner layout plan is analyzed.

[0137] The design method of the arrangement scheme of hydrogen recombiners in the containment of a nuclear power plant disclosed in the present embodiment first determines the total number of hydrogen recombiners; then determines the number of hydrogen recombiners in a compartment, including selecting a severe accident sequence, performing a risk analysis on the selected severe accident sequence, determining a hydrogen risk compartment, performing a sensitivity analysis on the number of hydrogen recombiners in the risk compartment, and determining the number of hydrogen recombiners in the compartment; finally, determining the arrangement scheme of hydrogen recombiners according to the total number of hydrogen recombiners and the number of recombiners in each compartment, which can be used to guide the arrangement of hydrogen recombiner schemes, solve the problem of lack of a standard hydrogen recombiner arrangement scheme design process in the prior art, improve the effectiveness of the hydrogen recombiner arrangement scheme, ensure that hydrogen in the containment can be eliminated after a severe accident occurs in the nuclear power plant, thereby avoiding slow combustion, fast combustion, combustion and explosion, etc. after a severe accident occurs in the nuclear power plant, and ensuring the integrity of the containment.
