Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of test equipment, and particularly relates to a test device for verifying the hydraulic performance of a main pump of a compact reactor. Background Art

[0002] The statements herein only provide background art related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] In large pressurized water reactor nuclear power plants, the inlets and outlets of the main pumps are usually connected to other main equipment through main pipelines or partial straight circular pipes. In order to be more compact and flexible, nuclear power small reactors usually adopt a compact design, that is, the main pipelines are cancelled, the pump casings of the main pumps are integrated with the SG (steam generator), and at the same time, the outlets of the main pumps are also closely connected to the RPV (pressure vessel). The SG water chamber head and the main pump casing are designed as an integral forging structure, and the hydraulic components of the main pump are directly inserted into the integral head structure. The nuclear main pump of this nuclear power compact small reactor is directly inverted and suspended at the lower end of the steam generator. The fluid of the steam generator is directly poured into the nuclear main pump without being rectified, which may cause the inlet flow distortion of the nuclear main pump, and this may affect the performance of the nuclear main pump. In the compact design, since the SG water chamber head and the main pump casing are integrated, the inlet flow field of the impeller may have strong unsteady characteristics, thus affecting the operation of the pump. The main potential impacts include: the inlet flow impact of the impeller blades causes the hydraulic efficiency of the impeller to decrease, the non-uniformity of the circumferential flow rate of the impeller causes the pump to be affected by flow-induced vibration during operation, and the flow field disturbance at the impeller inlet propagates to the inside of the impeller and volute, causing the rise of the internal pressure pulsation of the pump. On the one hand, these impacts may increase the energy consumption of the pump, and on the other hand, they pose a hazard to the safety and stability of the operation of the main pump, affecting the operability of the nuclear power system.

[0004] It is relatively common to study the influence of inlet flow distortion of conventional vane pumps on the performance of the pumps. Generally, the development of pump hydraulic models is also assumed to have a uniform and stable incoming flow in the design of general water pumps. There are also studies on the connection structure between the SG water chamber head and the inlet of the nuclear main pump. However, the inventor found that there are few relevant studies on how the integrated structure of the SG water chamber head and the main pump casing affects the performance of the nuclear main pump, and most of them are in the form of numerical simulation and simulation, and the credibility of the results has not been verified by experiments. Especially under complex flow conditions, the conventional numerical simulation turbulence model cannot ensure the true reflection of the real flow field dynamics characteristics inside the main pump and pipeline.

[0024] Embodiment 1

[0025] This embodiment provides a test device for verifying the hydraulic performance of a compact reactor main pump, as Figure 1 shown, including a first head simulation part 1 and a second head simulation part 2. The first head simulation part 1 has a first cavity 3 inside, and the second head simulation part 2 has a second cavity 4 inside.

[0026] The cavity surfaces of the first cavity 3 and the second cavity 4 are both quarter spheres, and the first cavity 3 and the second cavity 4 can form a hemispherical structure. Therefore, the first cavity 3 and the second cavity 4 are formed by cutting a hemisphere and moving it to both sides.

[0027] The top of the first cavity 3 extends to the top surface of the first head simulation part 1, and the top of the second cavity 4 extends to the top surface of the second head simulation part 2.

[0028] A pressure detection element is installed in the first cavity 3 through a pressure taking hole provided in the first head simulation part 1 to detect the fluid pressure in the first cavity. A pressure detection element is installed in the second cavity 4 through a pressure taking hole provided in the second head simulation part 2 to detect the fluid pressure in the second cavity. In this embodiment, an existing pressure sensor can be used as the pressure detection element. The pressure sensor is connected to the control system and can transmit the collected data to the control system. Through the pressure sensors in the first cavity and the second cavity, the pressure parameters of the cooling water in the head can be detected.

[0029] A heat exchange tube simulation tube group 5 is arranged between the first cavity 3 and the second cavity 4. The heat exchange tube simulation tube group 5 connects the first cavity 3 and the second cavity 4 and is used to simulate the SG heat exchange tubes upstream of the compact reactor main pump.

[0030] In this embodiment, the heat exchange tube simulation tube group 5 includes a plurality of U-shaped tubes, which are distributed in a parallel array. One end of the U-shaped tube is fixed to the first tube sheet 6. The first tube sheet 6 is fixed to the upper surface of the first head simulation part 1 by a plurality of bolts, and a sealing ring is provided between the first tube sheet 6 and the first head simulation part 1. The first tube sheet 6 is provided with through holes corresponding to the U-shaped tubes, so that the U-shaped tubes are communicated with the internal space of the first cavity 3.

The second tube sheet 7 is fixed to the upper surface of the second head simulation part 2 by a plurality of bolts, and a sealing ring is provided between the second tube sheet 7 and the second head simulation part 2. The second tube sheet 7 is provided with through holes corresponding to the U-shaped tubes, so that the U-shaped tubes are communicated with the internal space of the second cavity 4.

[0032] In order to prevent the U-shaped tube row from vibrating during the test, multiple V-shaped anti-vibration bars 8 are inserted between the arranged U-shaped tubes. The anti-vibration bar groups 8 are hung on the U-shaped tubes and made of stainless steel bars to prevent the U-shaped tube row from vibrating under the hydraulic action.

[0033] In this embodiment, a support plate 9 also passes through the end of the U-shaped tube. The support plate 9 is fixed to the external frame and is used to support the U-shaped tube. The two ends of the U-shaped tube are respectively communicated with the first cavity and the second cavity after passing through the support plate.

[0034] The U-shaped tubes are made of stainless steel tubes. Pressure difference sensors are installed at intervals on the U-shaped tubes to measure the pressure difference and measure the flow resistance characteristics of the U-shaped tubes.

The main pump installation cavity is used to install the main pump, thus realizing the simulation of a compact reactor with an integrated structure of the main pump pump shell and the water chamber head.

[0037] The first cavity and the second cavity are at the same height. Since the main pump installation cavity is located below the first cavity 3, the dimension of the first head simulation part 1 in the vertical direction is higher than that of the second head simulation part 2 in the vertical direction. In order to make the top surfaces of the first head simulation part 1 and the second head simulation part 2 flush, a cushion block 11 is provided between the second head simulation part 2 and the steel structure base. The thickness of the cushion block 11 makes the top surface of the second head simulation part 2 flush with the top surface of the first head simulation part 1.

One end of the flow channel 14 is communicated with the impeller cavity 12, and the other end extends into the first ring cavity simulation part 15 and is communicated with the first resistance simulation cavity 16. In this embodiment, a cushion block 11 is provided between the flow channel part and the steel structure base 10, and the flow channel part is supported by the cushion block 11.

[0040] Along the water flow direction, the flow channel 14 adopts a Venturi tube structure, and the feasibility study of the primary loop flow rate test can be carried out.

[0041] A first ring cavity simulation part 15 is arranged on one side of the flow channel part. The first ring cavity simulation part 15 is in sealing fit with the side surfaces of the flow channel part and the cushion block 11. A first resistance simulation cavity 16 is arranged in the first ring cavity simulation part 15, which is used to apply a certain resistance to the circulating water to simulate the resistance characteristics of the flow channel of the inlet ring cavity of the pressure vessel RPV.

[0042] In this embodiment, the first resistance simulation cavity 16 adopts a cavity with a horizontal cross-section in the shape of a semi-circular ring, and its outer arc surface is close to the first head simulation part 1. The flow channel 14 extends into the first ring cavity simulation part 15 and is communicated with the first resistance simulation cavity 16.

[0043] A third ring cavity simulation part 17 is arranged below the first ring cavity simulation part 15. The third ring cavity simulation part 17 is in sealing fit with the first ring cavity simulation part 15. A first transition cavity 18 with a horizontal cross-section in the shape of a semi-circle is opened on the upper surface of the third ring cavity simulation part 17. The shape of the first transition cavity 18 corresponds to the shape of the first resistance simulation cavity 16, and the first transition cavity 18 is communicated with the first resistance simulation cavity 16. A transition channel 19 is opened on the horizontal cavity surface of the first transition cavity 18, and the transition channel extends to the bottom surface of the third ring cavity simulation part.

[0044] A second ring cavity simulation part 20 is arranged on one side of the second head simulation part 2. The second ring cavity simulation part 20 is in sealing fit with the second head simulation part 2 and the cushion block 11 below it. A second resistance simulation cavity 21 is arranged inside the second ring cavity simulation part 20, which is used to simulate the resistance characteristics of the flow channel of the upper chamber at the outlet of the pressure vessel RPV core.

[0045] The second resistance simulation cavity 21 adopts a cavity with a semi-circular horizontal cross-section, and the second resistance simulation cavity 21 is communicated with the second cavity 4 through an intermediate channel.

[0046] A fourth ring cavity simulation member 22 is arranged below the second ring cavity simulation member 20. The second ring cavity simulation member 20 is hermetically attached to the fourth ring cavity simulation member 22. A second transition cavity 23 with a semi-circular horizontal cross-section is opened on the upper surface of the fourth ring cavity simulation member 22. The second transition cavity 23 is communicated with the second resistance simulation cavity 21. A transition channel 19 is arranged on the horizontal cavity surface of the second transition cavity 23, and the transition channel 19 extends to the bottom surface of the fourth ring cavity simulation member 22.

[0047] In this embodiment, through the settings of the first resistance simulation cavity 16 and the second resistance simulation cavity 21, the flow channel resistance characteristics of the inlet ring cavity of the pressure vessel and the upper chamber of the core outlet are simulated with the simplest structure, without the need to set up a water flow channel identical to that of the pressure vessel, simplifying the test device and facilitating processing and production.

[0048] The two transition channels 19 are connected to the water circulation mechanism through through-holes opened in the steel structure base 10, thereby realizing the reciprocating circulation of the cooling water among the second transition cavity 23, the second resistance simulation cavity 21, the second cavity 4, the heat exchange tube simulation tube group 5, the first cavity 3, the impeller cavity 12, the flow channel 14, the first resistance simulation cavity 16, and the first transition cavity 18.

The pressure detection element uses a pressure sensor, and the pressure pulsation detection element uses a pressure pulsation sensor, which are respectively used to detect the pressure parameters and pressure pulsation parameters at the inlet of the main pump.

[0050] The part of the flow channel 14 located in the first ring cavity simulation member 15 has a semi-circular cross-section. A plurality of pressure detection elements and pressure pulsation detection elements are installed along the circumference inside this part. The pressure detection element uses a pressure sensor, and the pressure pulsation detection element uses a pressure pulsation sensor, which are used to detect the cooling water pressure and pressure pulsation data at the outlet of the main pump.

[0051] A differential pressure detection element is also installed at the necking part in the middle of the flow channel. The differential pressure detection element uses a differential pressure sensor, which can study the feasibility of measuring the flow rate of the primary loop using differential pressure.

[0052] In this embodiment, the first head simulation part 1 and the second head simulation part 2 are machined according to the scaled-down size of a compact reactor and are made of transparent acrylic material. The first head simulation part 1 and the second head simulation part 2 are separately arranged, and their opposite planes can serve as PIV lighting planes. A PIV device can be installed between the first head simulation part 1 and the second head simulation part 2 to meet the requirements of PIV flow field dynamic testing.

[0053] The water circulation mechanism includes a water tank 24 and corresponding pipelines. The outlet of the water tank 24 is connected to the transition channel 19 of the fourth annular cavity simulation part 22 through a pipeline. Along the water flow direction on the pipeline between the outlet of the water tank 24 and the transition channel 19 of the fourth annular cavity simulation part 22, a filter 25, an auxiliary booster pump 26, a pressure stabilizing tank 27, a flowmeter 28, and a regulating valve 29 are arranged in sequence.

A water temperature sensor is provided between the pressure stabilizing tank 27 and the regulating valve 29, and a pressure sensor is provided between the regulating valve 29 and the transition channel.
