Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of energy experimental technology application, and in particular relates to a closed supercritical carbon dioxide Brayton cycle experimental device. Background Art
[0002] The supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO2) Brayton cycle has the characteristics of small turbine machinery, simple cycle layout, high medium temperature cycle efficiency, and low dry cooling efficiency loss, making it very suitable for the power generation system of nuclear reactors to replace the existing Rankine cycle. The ideal S-CO2 Brayton cycle has the same four thermal processes as the Rankine cycle and other gas Brayton cycles, including isobaric heating process, isentropic expansion process, isobaric heat release process and isentropic compression process.
[0003] The special feature of the S-CO2 Brayton cycle is that it uses S-CO2 as a heat transfer fluid to cool the compressor inlet fluid to a temperature close to the critical point of S-CO2, and its high density helps to reduce the working consumption of the compressor. The gas Brayton cycle uses an ideal gas as a coolant and has no phase change process. Due to the special thermal properties and cycle structure of S-CO2, the S-CO2 Brayton cycle has distinct characteristics. The high density of the fluid at the compressor inlet can reduce the power consumption of the compressor. As the temperature increases, S-CO2 has no phase change, making the heating process more efficient, and the fluid temperature reaching the turbine is higher, which improves the power conversion efficiency. The turbine expansion process is always single-phase, without the danger of condensation. The gas turbine system can remove the steam-water separation reheater used in the Rankine cycle, simplifying the system configuration. The large S-CO2 density and small pressure ratio make the turbomachinery very compact. The fluid in the cooling process has a large specific heat, which improves the heat exchange efficiency. The low viscosity S-CO2 enables the system to have a lower pressure drop. The single-phase CO2 in the entire cycle eliminates the phase change process and accelerates the dynamic response. The S-CO2 power cycle has a high efficiency at medium turbine inlet temperature (about 450-600℃), which is close to the core outlet temperature of the fourth-generation reactor design. The simplicity and compactness of the S-CO2 power cycle help save costs and improve the economic efficiency of nuclear power plants.
[0004] Experimental research is the basis for conducting feasibility studies of closed S-CO2 Brayton cycles. Small integrated S-CO2 Brayton cycle experimental loops help achieve the following goals: 1) Experiment on the performance of key components such as turbines, compressors, regenerators, and precoolers; 2) Accumulate operating experience of closed S-CO2 Brayton cycles, which had no reference in the past; 3) Study control strategies for cycle startup, shutdown, and power maneuvers; 4) Accumulate experimental data for transient analysis program verification, which can be used for further design of S-CO2 Brayton cycles at higher powers. Concentrated solar power (CSP) technology based on the S-CO2 Brayton cycle was rated as one of the "Top Ten Engineering and Technical Challenges in the Field of Energy and Power" in 2018 by the China Association for Science and Technology. More and more Chinese researchers are committed to the technical development of the S-CO2 Brayton cycle. Summary of the invention

The outlet of the low-pressure side of the heat exchanger 3 is connected to the inlet of the working fluid side of the main circuit of the cooler 5. The eighth temperature transmitter T108 and the eighth pressure transmitter P108 are arranged at the outlet of the low-pressure side of the heat exchanger 3. The second differential pressure transmitter P202 is arranged at the inlet and outlet of the low-pressure side of the heat exchanger 3; the outlet of the working fluid side of the main circuit of the cooler 5 is connected to the inlet of the Coriolis mass flowmeter 6 by intersecting with the rear end pipeline of the bypass manual flow regulating valve V05.

[0033] Example
[0034] Figure 1 and Figure 2 This is a diagram of the closed supercritical carbon dioxide Brayton cycle experimental device
[0035] After the experimental device is built, a series of preparatory work needs to be carried out before the formal experiment to ensure that no accidents occur during the experiment and to ensure the accuracy of the experimental data.
[0036] The material used to build the experimental bench is S316L stainless steel pipe. There will be some attachments on the surface of the stainless steel pipe, as well as a protective layer added to its surface during production. When carbon dioxide enters the supercritical state, it will be extractable. If the pipe is not treated, the attachments on the pipe will be extracted during the experiment, polluting the carbon dioxide working fluid and damaging the instrument. Therefore, before the experiment, soak the pipe in dilute hydrochloric acid or acetone for 12 hours to extract the attachments on its surface.
[0037] Secondly, a sufficient amount of deionized water is passed into the carbon dioxide storage tank 10, the plunger pump 1 is turned on, and the system is run for 20 minutes, then the valve group V06-11 is switched to discharge the deionized water in the pipeline, and the above flushing process is repeated until no obvious impurities appear. Then nitrogen is passed to dry the pipeline to ensure that there is no excess water in the pipeline. Subsequently, anhydrous ethanol with a concentration of 95% is passed into the carbon dioxide storage tank 10, and the pipeline is cleaned again until no obvious impurities are observed in the anhydrous ethanol. After the anhydrous ethanol flushing is completed, it is also necessary to purge the pipeline with nitrogen to ensure the dryness of the pipeline.
[0038] On this basis, the experiment can be carried out according to the following steps:
[0039] (1) Observe the temperature display on the carbon dioxide storage tank 10. If the temperature is higher than 10°C, open the spray device for precooling to maintain the carbon dioxide in liquid state. Monitor the working fluid level through the magnetic flap level gauge until the experimental requirements are met.
[0040] (2) Check the entire circuit and switch to ensure that the wires of the entire system are connected correctly, without short circuit or leakage, and the switch can work normally. Confirm whether all valves of the entire system are open to prevent the pressure from being blocked and causing damage to the plunger pump 1. Confirm whether the main power switch is connected intact, then turn on the main power switch to power the circuit, and then turn on the control switches of the transformer, DC power supply and other experimental equipment as needed.
[0041] (3) Turn on plunger pump 1, start the circuit running at the set mass flow rate, and check whether there is obvious air leakage in the circuit.
[0042] (4) Then turn on the water cooling machine 8 and set the water cooling temperature at 8°C.
[0043] (5) Turn on the computer, start the data acquisition program, and set up the acquisition file.
[0044] (6) Open the flow control valve V01 and adjust it in real time. If necessary, adjust the manual control valve V05 to calibrate the flow, and then adjust the pressure control valve V03 to make the circuit pressure meet the experimental requirements.
[0045] (7) Turn on the heating system of experimental section 4. Figure 3As shown, the experimental section 4 is a vertically placed hexagonal cylinder structure with a hexagonal flow channel, precision cutting, and one-piece molding. It can be built-in with 37 heating rods, using indirect heating, and the heating power can reach hundreds of kilowatts. The seven central heating rods are connected to thermocouples to achieve real-time temperature measurement. The heating section length is 1.5m, the rod diameter is 9.5mm, and the rod spacing is 15mm. The control voltage adjusts the power of the 37 internal heating rods for heating. The 7 central heating rods of the experimental section 4 are connected to thermocouples for real-time temperature measurement. After the temperature reaches 500℃ and meets the required working conditions of the experiment, the heating power is adjusted to wait for the temperature to stabilize and collect data for 100s.
[0046] (8) After the experimental data collection is completed, first turn off the heating system, then adjust the pressure regulating valve V03 to reduce the pipeline pressure, turn off the plunger pump 1, and finally turn off the cooling system and data acquisition system.
[0047] (9) Before leaving the laboratory, ensure that the main power supply of the experimental system is turned off.
[0048] In addition, the experimental operation process must be strictly carried out in accordance with the operating specifications to avoid safety accidents. The precautions are as follows: 1) When the temperature transmitter, pressure transmitter, and differential pressure transmitter are not working properly, the experiment should be stopped to check the power supply and transmission signal system. If there is no problem with the two, check the PLC system and programming code. 2) There should be no air residue in the chiller. In winter, the temperature can reach below zero degrees. The chiller should be emptied after the experiment to avoid freezing of the evaporator and pipes of the chiller. 3) The carbon dioxide storage tank is a pressure vessel in the experimental system, so the carbon dioxide storage tank should be checked regularly. If the carbon dioxide storage tank has problems such as deformation or leakage, first stop the experiment, then open the exhaust valve to empty the carbon dioxide in the carbon dioxide storage tank, and finally inspect the carbon dioxide storage tank.
[0049] Although the present invention has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that some modifications or improvements may be made thereto based on the present invention. Therefore, these modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention all fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
