TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] In a conventional land-based pressurized water reactor, a pressure vessel, a steam generator, a main pump, a pressure stabilizer and a main pipe for comiecting all the devices form a primary loop of the reactor. An elbow flow meter is often arranged on the main pipe to measure a flow of the primary7 loop of the reactor, or the flow of the primary’ loop of the reactor is determined by measuring a pressure difference of an inlet and an outlet of the main pump.

[0003] However, use of the elbow flow meter has certain limitations since it requires a primary loop pipe with a sufficient length, a sufficient pipe arrangement space, and an elbow position for placing the elbow flow meter, and an elbow angle affects measurement accuracy of the elbow flow meter. When the pressure difference of the inlet and the outlet of the main pump is measured, a selected position of a measuring point needs to be at a certain distance from the outlet of the main pump to obtain stable flow field parameters, thus a certain error exists in determined flow data. In addition, when a resistance member device exists at the outlet of the main pump, if a fault occurs, pressure difference data has a serious error. Therefore, the traditional method for determining the flow in the primary loop of the reactor has the problem that a determination result of the flow has low accuracy. SUMMARY

All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0027] A method for determining a flow in a primary loop of a reactor according to embodiments of the present application can be applied to an application environment shown in FIG. 1. In the application environment, a terminal 102 is communicated with a main pump 104 in the primary loop of the reactor.

The data storage system may be integrated on the server, or may be arranged on a cloud or another network server. With independent execution by the terminal 102 as an example: a current rotating speed of the main pump in the primary loop of the reactor is obtained; according to the current rotating speed, a rated rotating speed of the main pump, the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor, and a first head mapping function, a head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is determined; according to the current rotating speed, the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed, and a first relationship, a first head of the mam pump at the current rotating speed is determined, the first relationship being configured for indicating a relationship between a head of the main pump at any rotating speed and the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed; according to the flow to be solved and a second head mapping function, a second head of the main pump at the current rotating speed is determined; and a value of the flow to be solved is determined according to the first head and the second head. The terminal 102 may be, but is not limited to, various personal computers, notebook computers, smart phones, tablet computers, Internet of Things devices and portable wearable devices, and the Internet of Things devices may be smart speakers, smart televisions, smart air conditioners, smart vehicle-mounted devices, or the like. The portable wearable device can be a smart watch, a smart bracelet, a head-mounted device, or the like. The server may be implemented by a stand-alone server or a server cluster composed of a plurality of servers.

[0028] In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, a method for determining a flow in a primary loop of a reactor is provided, the description is given with the method applied to a computer device (the computer device may be the terminal or the server in FIG. 1) as an example, and the method includes the following steps.

[0029] In S201, a current rotating speed of a main pump in the primary loop of the reactor is obtained.

[0030] The primary loop of the reactor is a loop apparatus that directly conducts heat out of the reactor. A coolant in the reactor circulates in the primary loop. The main pump is a rotary mechanical device in the primary loop of the reactor, and the main pump is configmed to cause the coolant in the primary loop of the reactor to form forced circulation, so that heat generated in the reactor is transferred to a steam generator to generate steam to push a steam turbine to do work. The computer device obtains the current rotating speed of the main pump in the primary loop of the reactor.

[0031] In S202, according to the current rotating speed, a rated rotating speed of the main pump, the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor, and a first head mapping function, a head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is determined.

[0032] The rated rotating speed is a rotating speed of the main pump at rated power. The rated rotating speed of the main pump is a fixed value. Exemplarily, the rated rotating speed may be 1,480 rpm. The flow to be solved is a coolant flow of the main pump at the current rotating speed, for example, the flow to be solved may be the coolant flow in the primary loop of the reactor through any main pump. The flow to be solved is an unknown value to be solved. A number of the main pumps in the primary loop of the reactor is at least one. The at least one main pump may be of the same or different types. The head is an energy increment per unit weight of coolants from an inlet of the main pump to an outlet of the main pump. The head at a rated rotating speed refers to the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed.

[0033] The first head mapping function is configured for indicating a corresponding relationship between a flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed and the flow head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed. The flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed refers to a coolant flow of the primary loop of the reactor when the main pump is at the rated rotating speed. The computer device determines the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed according to the current rotating speed, the rated rotating speed of the main pump, the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor, and the first head mapping function. Since the flow to be solved is unknown, the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is a function of the flow to be solved.

[0034] In S203, according to the current rotating speed, the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed, and a first relationship, a first head of the main pump at the current rotating speed is detennined, the first relationship being configured for indicating a relationship between a head of the main pump at any rotating speed and the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed.

[0035] The first relationship is configured for indicating the relationship between the head of the main pump at any rotating speed and the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed. The computer device substitutes the current rotating speed of the main pump, the rated rotating speed of the main pump and the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed into the first relationship, and takes an obtained calculation result as the first head of the main pump at the current rotating speed. The first head is configured to indicate a head of the main pump at the current rotating speed. Since the flow to be solved is unknown and the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is the function of the flow to be solved, the first head is a function of the flow to be solved.

[0036] In S204: according to the flow to be solved and a second head mapping function, a second head of the main pump at the current rotating speed is determined.

[0037] The second head mapping function is configured for indicating a corresponding relationship between a flow and the head of the main pump at any rotating speed. The flow to be solved refers to the flow of the main pump at the current rotating speed. The second head is a head of the main pump at the current rotating speed. The computer device substitutes the flow to be solved into the second head mapping function to obtain the second head of the main pump at the current rotating speed. Since the flow to be solved is unknown, the second head is a function of the flow to be solved.

[0038] In S205, a value of the flow to be solved is determined according to the first head and the second head.

[0039] Since the first head and the second head are both the heads of the main pump at the current rotating speed, values of the first head and the second head are equal. Since the first head is the function of the flow to be solved, the second head is the function of the flow to be solved, and the values of the first head and the second head are equal, the computer device can determine the value of the flow to be solved.

[0040] In the above method for determining a flow in a primary loop of a reactor, the current rotating speed of the main pump in the primary loop of the reactor is obtained; according to the current rotating speed, the rated rotating speed of the main pump, the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor, and the first head mapping function, the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is determined; according to the current rotating speed, the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed, and the first relationship, the first head of the main pump at the current rotating speed is determined; according to the flow to be solved and the second head mapping function, the second head of the main pump at the current rotating speed is determined; and the value of the flow to be solved is determined according to the first head and the second head. According to the method, the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed, the first head and the second head are respectively obtained according to the current rotating speed and the rated rotating speed of the main pump using the first head mapping function, the first relationship and the second head mapping function, and then, the value of the flow to be solved is determined, so that errors caused by flow meter measurement and pressure difference measurement are avoided, and a determination result of the flow in the primary loop of the reactor has high accuracy.

[0041] In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, according to the current rotating speed, the rated rotating speed of the main pump, the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor, and the first head mapping function, determining the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed includes the following steps S302 and S304.

[0042] In S302, the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is determined according to the current rotating speed, the rated rotating speed of the main pump and the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor.

[0043] As is know n from characteristics of the main pump, a rotating speed of the main pump is in direct proportion to the coolant flow through the main pump. When there is only one main pump in the primary loop of the reactor, the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor is equal to the coolant flow through the main pump. When there are two or more main pumps in the primary loop of the reactor, with the two or more main pumps of the same type as an example, the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor is equal to the coolant flow through any main pump. In some embodiments, the two or more main pumps in the primary loop of the reactor are of different types, the coolant flows through the main pumps may be different, and the coolant flow through any main pump may be selected as the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor.

[0044] The computer device determines the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed according to the current rotating speed, the rated rotating speed of the main pump and the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor. Since the flow to be solved is unknown, the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is a function of the flow to be solved.

[0045] In S304, the head of the mam pump at the rated rotating speed is determined according to the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed and the first head mapping function.

[0046] The computer device substitutes the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed into the first head mapping function to obtain the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed.

[0047] In this embodiment, the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is determined according to the current rotating speed, the rated rotating speed of the main pump and the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor, and the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is determined according to the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed and the first head mapping function. The flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is the function of the flow to be solved, the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is the function of the flow to be solved, and the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed and the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed are used for calculating the value of the flow to be solved, so that the errors caused by the flow meter measurement and the pressure difference measurement are avoided, and the determination result of the flow7 in the primary loop of the reactor has high accuracy.

[0048] In an embodiment, the first relationship is determined according to the following formula: where n represents the current rotating speed of the main pump, N represents the rated rotating speed of the main pump. HN (QN) represents the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed, and Hn(Qn) represents the head of the main pump at the current rotating speed.

[0049] According to the characteristics of the main pump, the head of the main pump is in direct proportion to a square of the flow of the main pump, and the flow rate of the main pump is in direct proportion to the rotating speed of the main pump, so that the first relationship can be obtained. In the first relationship, a ratio of the head of the main pump at any rotating speed to the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is equal to a square of a ratio of the rotating speed to the rated rotating speed. The first relationship is configured for indicating the relationship between the head of the main pump at any rotating speed and the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed.

[0050] In this embodiment, based on the first relationship, the first head of the main pump at the current rotating speed may be determined and configured for calculating the value of the flow to be solved. The errors caused by the flow7 meter measurement and the pressure difference measurement are avoided, and the determination result of the flow in the primary loop of the reactor has high accuracy.

[0051] In an embodiment, determining the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed according to the current rotating speed, the rated rotating speed of the main pump and the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor includes:

[0052] determining the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed according to the follow ing formula: On = n Qn n where n represents the current rotating speed of the main pump, N represents the rated rotating speed of the main pump, Qn represents the flow to be solved in the primary loop ofthe reactor, and QN represents the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed.

[0053] Since the flow of the main pump is in direct proportion to the rotating speed, the relationship that the ratio of the flow of the main pump at the current rotating speed to the flow' of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is equal to the ratio of the current rotating speed to the rated rotating speed of the main pump can be obtained. The flow of the main pump at the current rotating speed is the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor. The computer device substitutes the current rotating speed, the rated rotating speed of the main pump and the flow to be solved in the primaiy loop of the reactor into the above formula, thus the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed can be determined, that is: QN=^Qn.

[0054] In this embodiment, the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is determined by adopting the formula according to the current rotating speed, the rated rotating speed of the main pump and the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor, and the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is the function of the flow to be solved. The value of the flow to be solved is calculated based on the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed, so that the errors caused by the flow meter measurement and the pressure difference measurement are avoided, and the determination result of the flow in the primary loop of the reactor has high accuracy.

[0055] In an embodiment, determining the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed according to the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed and the first head mapping function includes:

[0056] determining the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed using the following first head mapping function: Hn(Qn) = Bo + ■ Qn + B2 ■ Qn2 where HN(QN) represents the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed, Bo, Bt and B2 are constants, and QN represents the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed.

[0057] The computer device substitutes the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed into the first head mapping function to determine the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed. A method for determining the first head mapping function includes: in a hydraulic performance test of the main pump, according to experimental data of the head and the flow of the main pump, fitting the experimental data into a first head curve by adopting a curve fitting algorithm, a function corresponding to the first head cun c being the first head mapping function. Different types of main pumps correspond to different first head mapping functions. The first head mapping functions corresponding to different types of main pumps may have different Bo, Bt and B2, or may be other mapping relationships. The same type of main pumps correspond to the same first head mapping function.

[0058] In some embodiments, since Qn =~’Qn- Qn is substituted into the first head mapping function to obtain: Hn(Qn) = Bo + Bt ■ J■ Qn + B2 ■ (J■ Qn)2.

[0059] In this embodiment, the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is determined by adopting the first head mapping function according to the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed and the first head mapping function, so that the errors caused by the flow meter measurement and the pressure difference measurement are avoided, and the determination result of the flow in the primary loop of the reactor has high accuracy.

[0060] In an embodiment, according to the flow to be solved and the second head mapping function, determining the second head of the main pump at the current rotating speed includes:

[0061] determining the second head of the main pump at the current rotating speed using the following second head mapping function: Hn(Qn) = KQn2 where Hn(Qn) represents the head of the main pump at the current rotating speed, Qn represents the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor, and K is a constant.

[0062] A total pressure loss in the primary loop of the reactor includes a frictional resistance and a local resistance. For a complex system, the total pressure loss is a sum of the two losses. A formula for calculating the total pressure loss is as follows: △P = ?-|-p-u2 where AP represents a total pressure drop in Pa, p represents a coolant density in kg / m3, and u represents an average flow velocity of the coolant. For the same primary loop of the reactor, geometric parameters are the same, and factors influencing a total resistance coefficient are only the coolant density, kinematic viscosity, and the flow. A formula for calculating the Reynolds number is Re = u • d / v, and for the whole primary loop of the reactor, the relative Reynolds number is represented by Re*, and Re *= Qn / u. A relative value of the total resistance coefficient is represented by ^*.

[0064] When the Reynolds number of flowing of the coolant in the primary loop of the reactor is greater than a certain limit value, the total resistance coefficient of the primary’ loop of the reactor is hardly changed. That is, the total resistance coefficient of the same reactor is basically the same under different design working conditions. In some embodiments, the total resistance coefficient obtained through practical experiments is 158.5, and is substituted into a calculation formula of the total resistance coefficient to obtain: AP = 158.5 ■ ■ p ■ Qn2

[0065] The above calculation formula is transformed to obtain the following formula: 1 7 AP_ 158.5'2’p-Qn Pg Pg

[0066] Since Hn(Q„) = — Hn(Qn) =------= KQn2, p& p& , T- 158,5 where K =----. 2g

[0067] K is a constant, and a value of K can be continuously corrected according to a thermal balance test in a debugging test stage in an actual reactor running process, thereby improving the accuracy of the determination result of the flow.

[0068] In this embodiment, the second head of the main pump at the current rotating speed is determined by using the second head mapping function according to the flow to be solved and the second head mapping function. The value of the flow to be solved is determined based on the second head, so that the errors caused by the flow meter measurement and the pressure difference measurement are avoided, and the determination result of the flow in the primary loop of the reactor has high accuracy.

[0069] In order to explain the method for determining a flow in a primary loop of a reactor and an effect in this solution in detail, a most detailed embodiment is described below.

[0070] A current rotating speed of a main pump in the primary loop of the reactor is obtained. A flow of the main pump at a rated rotating speed is determined using the following formula according to the current rotating speed, the rated rotating speed of the main pump and the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor: On = n Qn N where n represents the current rotating speed of the main pump, N represents the rated rotating speed of the main pump, Qn represents the flow to be solved in the primary loop ofthe reactor, and QN represents N the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed.

According to a flow of the main pump at a rated rotating speed and a first head mapping function, the following first head mapping function is adopted to determine a head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed: Hn(Qn) = Bo + Bt • Qn + B2 • Qn2 where HN(QN) represents the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed, Bo, Bt and B2 are constants, and QN represents the flow of the main pump at the rated rotating speed.

[0072] For the first head mapping function, in a hydraulic performance test of the main pump, according to experimental data of the head and the flow of the main pump, the experimental data is fitted into a first head curve by adopting a curve fitting algorithm, and a function corresponding to the first head curve is the first head mapping function. Exemplarily, the experimental data may be fitted using MATLAB (Matrix Laboratory) software to obtain the first head curve.

[0073] FIG. 5 shows a schematic diagram of the first head curve corresponding to the first head mapping function, in which (a) (e.g., the diagram on the left in FIG. 5) is experimental data of running features of the main pump, an abscissa represents the flow, and an ordinate Hp(m) represents the head, (b) (e.g., the diagram on the right in FIG. 5) is the first head curve obtained by fitting the experimental data, and a function equation corresponding to the first head curve is H = Bo + Bx • Q + B2 ■ Q2. As can be seen from the fitted first head curve, a fitting effect of the flow in a region from 2,000m3 / h to 6,000m3 / h is good, and exemplarily, 3,600m3 / h can be selected as a working point of the main pump.

[0074] Since Qn = “ ’ Qn- Qn is substituted into the first head mapping function to obtain N           N 7 H.x(Qx) = Bo + Bt • - ■ Qn + B2 ■ (- • Qn)2

[0075] According to the current rotating speed, the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed, and a first relationship, a first head of the main pump at the current rotating speed is determined, the first relationship being configured for indicating a relationship between a head of the main pump at any rotating speed and the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed. The first relationship is determined according to the following formula: Hn(Qn) = / nv2 Hn(Qn) W where n represents the current rotating speed of the main pump, N represents the rated rotating speed of the main pump, HN(QN) represents the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed, and Hn(Qn) represents a head of the main pump at the current rotating speed.

[0076] Since HN(QN) = Bo + B, ■ • Qn + B2 ■ (^ ■ Qn)2 , HN(QN) is substituted into the first relationship to obtain zn\2          N          N Hn(Qn) = y ■ (Bo + Bt ■ - ■ Qn + B2 ■ (-■ Qn)2)

[0077] According to the flow to be solved and a second head mapping function, a second head of the main pump at the current rotating speed is determined according to the following second head mapping function: Hn(Qn) = KQn2 where Hn(Qn) represents the head of the main pump at the current rotating speed, Qn represents the flow to be solved in the primary loop of tire reactor, and K is a constant,

[0078] A value of the flow to be solved is determined according to the first head and the second head. Since the first head and the second head are both heads of the main pump at the current rotating speed, values of the first head and the second head are equal. Since the first head is the function of the flow to be solved, the second head is the function of the flow to be solved, and the values of the first head and the second head are equal, the value of the flow to be solved can be determined.

[0079] In some embodiments, the number of the main pumps in the primary loop of the reactor is m, and then, Hn(Qn) = K(mQn)2.

[0080] Since the values of the first head and the second head are equal, it can be obtained that: zn\2 N / N \ (-) ■ (Bo + Bt ■ -■ Qn + B2 ■ (- ■ Qn)2) = K(mQn)2 thereby obtaining the flow to be solved Qn: B Bx2 — 4 ■ (B2 - m2K) ■ Bo n 0 = r--1--—----------------------------'i ■ — 1 2(B2 — m2K) 2(B2 — m2K) J N

In some embodiments, m=2, Bo=57.29698, Bi=0.00432935, B2=-2.766005E-06, N=l,480, and then, the calculated flow to be solved is 1.462618 X 10 6 V7.449305 x 1011 + 1.046329 x 1C)4K 0 — (--1--■ n ^2.766005 x 10 6 + 4K 2.766005 x 10 6 + 4K 7

[0082] In the above method for determining a flow in a primary loop of a reactor, the current rotating speed of the main pump in the primary loop of the reactor is obtained; according to the current rotating speed, the rated rotating speed of the main pump, the flow to be solved in the primary loop of the reactor, and the first head mapping function, the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed is determined; according to the current rotating speed, the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed, and the first relationship, the first head of the main pump at the current rotating speed is determined; according to the flow to be solved and the second head mapping function, the second head of the main pump at the current rotating speed is determined; and the value of the flow to be solved is determined according to the first head and the second head. According to the method, the head of the main pump at the rated rotating speed, the first head and the second head are respectively obtained according to the current rotating speed and the rated rotating speed of the main pump using the first head mapping function, the first relationship and the second head mapping function, and then, the value of the flow to be solved is determined, so that the errors caused by the flow meter measurement and the pressure difference measurement are avoided, and the determination result of the flow in the primary loop of the reactor has high accuracy. In addition, a pipe structure is avoided, a measuring meter based on a pipe interior throttling principle is not required to be arranged, an opening in a device pipe is avoided, an extra resistance is prevented from being introduced, and the risk of primary loop leakage is lowered. For the primary loop of a compact reactor, since the compact reactor has no main pipe and no elbow structure, the flow in the primary loop of the reactor cannot be measured by adopting an elbow flowmeter. The method for determining a flow in a primary loop of a reactor according to the present application can solve the problem of determining the flow of the primary loop of the compact reactor, and meanwhile can ensure the measurement accuracy of the flow. K in the flow to be solved is determined to be a dynamically adjustable coefficient, and can be continuously corrected during running of the reactor, so that the accuracy of the determination result of the flow is favorably improved, a thermal hydraulic calculation requirement can be met, and support is provided for safe running of a reactor core of the reactor.
