TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of nuclear power pipeline detection, in particular to a nuclear power pipeline detection trace coupling water supply system. BACKGROUND
[0002] The pipeline system of a nuclear power plant generally uses high-temperature, high-pressure and high-strength materials, and the detection quality requirement for the inside of the pipeline is very high. When detecting the nuclear power pipeline, the pipeline needs to be emptied first, and then an ultrasonic detection device is assembled inside the pipeline for detection. When using the ultrasonic detection device, coupling agent needs to be filled between the ultrasonic probe and the inner wall of the nuclear power pipeline. Since the coupling agent has good adhesion, it can effectively fill the gap between the probe and the inner wall of the nuclear power pipeline, reduce the energy loss of the sound wave in the transmission process, and enable the ultrasonic wave to better detect.
[0003] In a conventional trace coupling water supply system, the coupling agent tank needs to be injected towards the inside of the nuclear power pipeline. However, due to the viscosity of the coupling agent itself, air bubbles are easily generated. Moreover, the space inside the nuclear power pipeline is narrow, and air bubbles cannot be removed by manual spreading. The residual air bubbles will affect the subsequent ultrasonic inspection.
