AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing technologies, the leak detection process for critical plant water systems in nuclear power plants is inefficient and cannot quickly and accurately locate the leak point.

Method used

By dividing the important plant water system of the nuclear power plant into zones, the leakage area is determined based on the pressure value changes. Combined with the pressure value change relationship and rate, the leakage location is confirmed by methods such as pump start-up visual inspection, foam leak detection liquid method, wrapping method, water bath method, and ultrasonic leak detection method.

Benefits of technology

It enables rapid and accurate location of leaks, improves leak detection efficiency, and enhances the practicality of leak detection.

Abstract

The application relates to a nuclear power plant important plant water system leakage detection method, which comprises the following steps: S1, different height settings are performed on each connecting component in the nuclear power plant important plant water system, and the nuclear power plant important plant water system is divided into regions according to the height settings to obtain a plurality of system regions; S2, a system region is obtained as a standard region, and a pressure value of the standard region when the nuclear power plant important plant water system is normal is obtained as a standard pressure value; S3, when the nuclear power plant important plant water system is shut down, the real-time pressure value of the standard region is monitored; and S4, when the real-time pressure value changes relative to the standard pressure value, the corresponding system region is obtained as a leakage region according to the real-time pressure value. The application can quickly realize leakage positioning, has high efficiency and strong practicability.
