[0002] In the reprocessing of spent fuel, concentrated nitric acid, which has strong oxidizing properties, is used to dissolve the spent fuel. The dissolution of spent fuel is accompanied by high temperature and radioactivity, so the materials used in the boiling nitric acid environment have very high requirements for corrosion resistance.
[0003] Currently, the corrosion-resistant materials used in spent fuel reprocessing plants mainly include 304L stainless steel, 310L stainless steel, Ti-5Ta titanium alloy, Ti-5Ta-1.8Nb titanium alloy, zirconium alloy, etc. However, the connection or welding of these materials can cause significant potential differences, which in turn leads to galvanic corrosion, thus posing a huge safety hazard to spent fuel reprocessing.

[0012] A simulated spent fuel reprocessing boiling nitric acid galvanic galvanic corrosion test method, employing the aforementioned simulated spent fuel reprocessing boiling nitric acid galvanic galvanic corrosion test device, includes the following steps:
[0013] Step 1: Prepare a temporary support and fix the cover plate horizontally on the temporary support. At this time, the cover plate is pre-installed with a lifting and adjusting mechanism, the lifting and adjusting mechanism is pre-installed with a platform, and the platform is pre-installed with a first slider and a second slider.
[0014] Step 2: Weld a second wire to the top of the small-diameter section of the first thermocouple sample, then pass the first protective sleeve through the second wire and cover the outside of the small-diameter section of the first thermocouple sample, and then seal the wire perforation of the first protective sleeve; at the same time, weld a third wire to the top of the small-diameter section of the second thermocouple sample, then pass the second protective sleeve through the third wire and cover the outside of the small-diameter section of the second thermocouple sample, and then seal the wire perforation of the second protective sleeve.
[0015] Step 3: Insert the processed first thermocouple sample into the first slider from below the stage, so that the smaller diameter section of the first thermocouple sample protrudes from above the first slider, and the larger diameter section of the first thermocouple sample is inserted into the first sample mounting slot; at the same time, insert the processed second thermocouple sample into the second slider from below the stage, so that the smaller diameter section of the second thermocouple sample protrudes from above the second slider, and the larger diameter section of the second thermocouple sample is inserted into the second sample mounting slot.
[0016] Step 4: Adjust the area of the large diameter section of the first thermocouple sample exposed outside the first slider, and then tighten the first sample fixing screw; adjust the area of the large diameter section of the second thermocouple sample exposed outside the second slider, and then tighten the second sample fixing screw until the ratio of the exposed area of the large diameter section of the first thermocouple sample to that of the second thermocouple sample reaches the set value.
[0017] Step 5: Adjust the position of the first slider along the first slide rail, and at the same time adjust the position of the second slider along the second slide rail until the distance between the first and second thermocouple samples reaches the set value. Then, pass the second and third wires through the cover plate from below the cover plate, and then seal the wire holes in the cover plate.
[0018] Step 6: Transfer the cover plate from the temporary support to the reactor and fix the cover plate to the reactor. Then connect the second and third wires to the electrochemical workstation. Then pour saturated potassium nitrate solution into the beaker so that the reference electrode is immersed in the saturated potassium nitrate solution. At this time, the reference electrode has been connected to the electrochemical workstation in advance through the first wire.
[0019] Step 7: Insert one end of the prepared salt bridge tube into the reactor through the insertion hole on the cover plate, and insert the other end of the salt bridge tube into the beaker and immerse it in the saturated potassium nitrate solution. At this time, the inside of the salt bridge tube has been filled with electrolyte solution.
[0020] Step 8: Prepare a funnel and insert the handle of the funnel into the reactor through the insertion hole of the tail gas condenser pipe. Then, inject nitric acid into the reactor through the funnel until the amount of nitric acid injected reaches the set value. Then remove the funnel and insert the tail gas condenser pipe into the reactor through the insertion hole on the cover plate. At this time, the tail gas condenser pipe has been connected to the tail gas treatment equipment in advance, and a water-cooled heat exchange jacket has also been installed on the outside of the tail gas condenser pipe in advance.
[0021] Step 9: Start the heating platform through the control panel to heat the nitric acid inside the reactor until the temperature of the nitric acid reaches the set value. The temperature of the nitric acid is fed back to the control panel in real time through the temperature sensor. Then start the cooling circulating water station to cool the tail gas condenser through the water-cooled heat exchange jacket. Most of the tail gas condensate will drip back into the reactor along the tail gas condenser, and a small part of the tail gas will enter the tail gas treatment equipment for harmless treatment.
[0022] Step 10: After the nitric acid reaches the set temperature, start the motor through the control panel. The motor drives the lead screw to rotate synchronously. The rotational motion of the lead screw will be converted into the linear motion of the lead screw nut. In turn, the lead screw nut drives the stage to adjust its height. By adjusting the height of the stage, the first and second galvanic couple samples can be tested for galvanic corrosion in gas phase, liquid phase or gas-liquid two-phase alternating state.
[0023] Step 11: Repeat steps 1 to 10, except that the setting values for the ratio of the exposed area of the large diameter section of the first electrode pair sample to that of the second electrode pair sample are adjusted, the setting values for the electrode pair spacing of the first electrode pair sample and the second electrode pair sample are adjusted, and the setting values for the nitric acid heating temperature are adjusted.

Step 3: Insert the processed first thermocouple sample into the first slider from below the stage, so that the smaller diameter section of the first thermocouple sample protrudes from above the first slider, and the larger diameter section of the first thermocouple sample is inserted into the first sample mounting slot; at the same time, insert the processed second thermocouple sample into the second slider from below the stage, so that the smaller diameter section of the second thermocouple sample protrudes from above the second slider, and the larger diameter section of the second thermocouple sample is inserted into the second sample mounting slot. Step 4: Adjust the area of the large diameter section of the first thermocouple sample exposed outside the first slider, and then tighten the first sample fixing screw; adjust the area of the large diameter section of the second thermocouple sample exposed outside the second slider, and then tighten the second sample fixing screw until the ratio of the exposed area of the large diameter section of the first thermocouple sample to that of the second thermocouple sample reaches the set value. Step 5: Adjust the position of the first slider along the first slide rail, and at the same time adjust the position of the second slider along the second slide rail until the distance between the first and second thermocouple samples reaches the set value. Then, pass the second and third wires through the cover plate from below the cover plate, and then seal the wire holes in the cover plate. Step 6: Transfer the cover plate from the temporary support to the reactor and fix the cover plate to the reactor. Then connect the second and third wires to the electrochemical workstation. Then pour saturated potassium nitrate solution into the beaker so that the reference electrode is immersed in the saturated potassium nitrate solution. At this time, the reference electrode has been connected to the electrochemical workstation in advance through the first wire. Step 7: Insert one end of the prepared salt bridge tube into the reactor through the insertion hole on the cover plate, and insert the other end of the salt bridge tube into the beaker and immerse it in the saturated potassium nitrate solution. At this time, the inside of the salt bridge tube has been filled with electrolyte solution. Step 8: Prepare a funnel and insert the handle of the funnel into the reactor through the insertion hole of the tail gas condenser pipe. Then, inject nitric acid into the reactor through the funnel until the amount of nitric acid injected reaches the set value. Then remove the funnel and insert the tail gas condenser pipe into the reactor through the insertion hole on the cover plate. At this time, the tail gas condenser pipe has been connected to the tail gas treatment equipment in advance, and a water-cooled heat exchange jacket has also been installed on the outside of the tail gas condenser pipe in advance. Step 9: Start the heating platform through the control panel to heat the nitric acid inside the reactor until the temperature of the nitric acid reaches the set value. The temperature of the nitric acid is fed back to the control panel in real time through the temperature sensor. Then start the cooling circulating water station to cool the tail gas condenser through the water-cooled heat exchange jacket. Step 10: After the nitric acid reaches the set temperature, start the motor through the control panel. The motor drives the lead screw to rotate synchronously, and then the lead screw nut drives the stage to adjust the height. By adjusting the height of the stage, the first and second galvanic couple samples can be tested for galvanic corrosion in gas phase, liquid phase or gas-liquid two-phase alternating state. Step 11: Repeat steps 1 to 10, except that the setting values for the ratio of the exposed area of the large diameter section of the first electrode pair sample to that of the second electrode pair sample are adjusted, the setting values for the electrode pair spacing of the first electrode pair sample and the second electrode pair sample are adjusted, and the setting values for the nitric acid heating temperature are adjusted.
