Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of path planning, and in particular to a path planning method and device for a radioactive sample transport vehicle of a nuclear power plant. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of economy, the consumption of electric energy has been increasing. Among them, coal used for thermal power generation is a non-renewable resource, while wind power and electric power generation are greatly restricted by natural conditions and have certain regional characteristics. Nuclear energy has the advantages of small footprint, no carbon dioxide, no air pollution, stable and reliable operation, etc., so it is increasingly valued by people, and the number of nuclear power plants is also increasing.

[0003] During the operation, maintenance and decommissioning of nuclear power plants, a large amount of radioactive waste liquid will be generated, which needs to be sampled and professionally treated. The participation of manpower in this process is prone to safety hazards, and the automated treatment solution is preferred. Especially in the transportation of radioactive waste liquid, in order to reduce the empty rate of radioactive waste liquid, it is often transported at the output and receiving ends of radioactive waste liquid according to the optimal path, but due to the laying of the operation path of the transport vehicle, the closer to the port, the more restricted the path and the fewer optional routes, the higher the efficiency of the transport vehicle on the path, and the more serious the congestion at the port. It is impossible to effectively achieve higher transportation efficiency through limited port routes, which not only fails to improve the transportation efficiency, but also slows down the treatment plan of the radioactive waste liquid receiving end; in addition, the transport vehicle needs to return for secondary use, which further causes the congestion of the port; serious congestion will not only block the path node and slow down the overall progress, but also seriously affect the waste liquid treatment plan; at the same time, manual intervention in the presence of nuclear waste liquid poses a safety hazard.

[0057] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0058] In the following introduction, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. The following introduction provides multiple embodiments of the present application, and different embodiments can be replaced or combined, so the present application can also be considered to include all possible combinations of the same and / or different embodiments recorded. Therefore, if one embodiment includes features A, B, and C, and another embodiment includes features B and D, then the present application should also be considered to include embodiments containing one or more of all other possible combinations of A, B, C, and D, although the embodiment may not be clearly recorded in the following text.

[0059] The following description provides examples and does not limit the scope, applicability or examples set forth in the claims. Changes may be made to the functions and arrangements of the elements described without departing from the scope of the present application. Various processes or components may be appropriately omitted, substituted or added to each example. For example, the described method may be performed in an order different from the order described, and various steps may be added, omitted or combined. In addition, features described in some examples may be combined in other examples.

[0060] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 : is a flow chart of a path planning method for a nuclear power plant radioactive sample transport vehicle provided in an embodiment of the present application. In the embodiment of the present application, the method includes:

[0061] S101, obtaining a global path of the transport vehicle between an output end and a receiving end of the radioactive sample, and planning an optimal path for the transport vehicle to run between each output end and each receiving end.

[0062] The executor of this application can be the control system of the transport vehicle, and at the same time cooperate with the detection device installed on the operation path to identify and detect the route of the transport vehicle, ensure that the actual operation route of the transport vehicle is consistent with the planned route, and implement an orderly production plan.

[0063] In the present application, the global path of the transport vehicle may be a mesh structure, and the output end of the radioactive sample (such as nuclear waste liquid) is a fixed port, which is generally immovable, and the global path can be laid based on these ports; and the receiving end of the radioactive sample is built based on a professional processing device, which can be mobile, but no matter how these devices move, they still need to establish a stable docking line with the global path, and these docking lines are restrictive relative to the global path. The queuing and return of the transport vehicle are all realized by the docking lines. When multiple processing devices are centrally set up, these docking lines appear even more "crowded".

[0064] There is a certain temporary storage area in the processing device for temporarily storing radioactive samples that have not yet been processed, but the capacity of the temporary storage area is limited; at the same time, the processing speed of each processing device for radioactive samples may be different. These differences may be caused by the different number of internal processing production lines or the different processing processes.

[0065] The receiving speed of radioactive samples at the receiving end is limited. If the transportation efficiency of radioactive samples is too high, it cannot improve the processing efficiency of radioactive samples. Instead, it will cause congestion on the port path, thereby affecting the overall processing efficiency. The radioactive samples that are temporarily suspended from transportation stay at the receiving end to wait in line, or wait on the running path. For the radioactive sample processing device, there is no substantial difference between the two. However, in terms of transportation effect, the latter has obvious advantages, which can reduce the transportation pressure of the port, thereby improving the overall rationality of transportation and reducing the risk of congestion.

[0066] In the present application, the global path can be distributed between the output end and the receiving end, and the transport vehicle can run freely on the global path. There are multiple cross nodes in the global path. When performing path planning, the shortest running path between two points can be planned based on the structural characteristics of the global path.

[0067] It can be understood that, when the entire running path of the transport vehicle and the intersection nodes between the paths are known, the planning of the optimal path between two fixed points can be implemented in a variety of ways, and can be implemented with the help of a variety of algorithms, such as annealing algorithm, grid method, neural network algorithm, genetic algorithm, etc., and can also refer to global path planning schemes in other fields, such as global path planning of robots, to achieve the shortest running path between two points.

[0068] However, it should be noted that the path planning in this application should take existing routes into consideration, that is, possible conflicts between the operating path of the transport vehicle already in operation and the subsequently planned path, such as the intervention or reuse of the paths between the later transport vehicle and the previous transport vehicle at the same time node.

[0069] In the embodiment of the present application, multiple output terminals and multiple receiving terminals are included. Each output terminal may establish a transit relationship with any receiving terminal. Therefore, an optimal path should be planned between each output terminal and each receiving terminal, and a single mapping relationship should be established. After the transit relationship between the output terminal and the receiving terminal is determined, the optimal path between the two can be retrieved.

[0070] In a specific embodiment, after the optimal path planning is completed, the following steps are further included:

[0071] Outputting unique response information of each receiving end in sequence according to the position information of each receiving end in the global path;

[0072] Outputting unique identification information of each output terminal in sequence according to the position information of each output terminal in the global path;

[0073] Obtaining an optimal path between each output end and each receiving end; the optimal path is the shortest path between the output end and the receiving end;

[0074] An index table of the optimal path is established with the identification information as a search item, the response information as a verification item, and the optimal path as an output item.

[0075] In the embodiment of the present application, the setting of the global path is relatively fixed, and the receiving end and the output end can be serially numbered and encoded according to their position information in the global path, so that each receiving end and the output end has a unique identification code. When the identification code is obtained, the port corresponding to the identification code can be known.

[0076] Exemplarily, each output end may correspond to unique identification information, and each receiving end may correspond to unique response information, and an index form of the optimal path is established with the identification information as the search item, the response information as the verification item, and the optimal path between the two as the output item.

[0077] In specific implementation, after the output end establishes a transfer relationship with a certain receiving end, the identification information and response information can be extracted, and the optimal path between the two can be directly obtained from the index form.

[0078] S102: When it is detected that a transport vehicle has completed loading, a receiving end with the shortest receiving delay is selected as the transport vehicle's delivery target.

[0079] In an embodiment of the present application, the receiving delay is calculated based on the receiving speed of the radioactive samples at the receiving end and the inventory of the radioactive samples; the receiving speed is the processing speed of the radioactive samples by the processing device, and under normal circumstances, the receiving speed tends to be stable (the replacement process of the carrier containing the radioactive samples can be considered to obtain the average speed); the radioactive samples are contained in the carrier during the transportation process, and the capacity of each carrier may be the same or different, but its standard capacity can be identified according to the label on the carrier, or its actual capacity can be obtained by weighing; when the receiving speed is known, it is only necessary to determine the inventory of the radioactive samples at the receiving end to calculate the receiving delay.

[0080] There may be multiple carriers for radioactive samples on the transport vehicle. The carriers may be in the form of bottles, cans, etc., but they should be closable and opened during the processing of the processing device. The carriers are also in a closed state when temporarily stored in the processing device. When the carriers are transferred from the transport vehicle to the processing device, they can be grabbed and placed by a manipulator. When all the carriers on the transport vehicle are grabbed, the transport vehicle can be returned for secondary use.

[0081] Each transport vehicle can set a loading weight according to the number of carriers carried on it, the capacity of the carriers, etc., as a reference value for the full load of the transport vehicle. When the weight of the transport vehicle reaches the standard, it can be transported to maximize the transport of radioactive samples each time.

[0082] In one possible implementation, step S102 specifically includes:

[0083] Presetting the loading mass of each of the transport vehicles;

[0084] When it is detected that the weight of a transport vehicle reaches the loading mass corresponding to the transport vehicle, the transport vehicle completes loading;

[0085] Obtaining identification information of the output end corresponding to the transport vehicle when loading is completed, and determining the output end of the transport vehicle;

[0086] Selecting the receiving end with the shortest receiving delay as the transport target of the transport vehicle, and extracting the response information of the transport target;

[0087] Based on the identification information and the response information, the optimal path of the current transport vehicle between the output end and the transport target is obtained through the index form.

[0088] It should be noted that the loading mass of the transport vehicle is determined based on the number of vehicles carried and the capacity of the vehicles. Therefore, when the vehicles carried on the transport vehicle are different, the loading mass of the transport vehicle should also be adjusted accordingly; that is, the loading mass of the transport vehicle may change each time, and the loading mass parameter can be updated after the transport vehicle completes the loading of the vehicles.

[0089] There is a corresponding relationship between the transport vehicle and the output end. Generally, the vehicles carried on the transport vehicle all receive radioactive samples at one output end, and there is a single corresponding relationship between the transport vehicle and the output end. Of course, a transport vehicle can also receive radioactive samples at different output ends in succession, but when performing path planning, the last output end can be used as the starting point for path planning. At the same time, when establishing a transfer relationship for radioactive samples at the selected receiving end, the last output end is also used as the basis, and the output end is the transfer starting point of the transport vehicle on the global path. Therefore, in an embodiment of the present application, the identification information of the output end corresponding to the transport vehicle is obtained when loading is completed, and an output end corresponding to the last time the transport vehicle receives the radioactive sample is determined as the output end of the path planning, and then the selected receiving end is used to obtain the optimal path.

[0090] After the transport target is selected, a stable transfer relationship is established between the output end and the receiving end, and the identification information and response information can be extracted, and the optimal path between the two can be obtained through the index form; however, this path may not be the final operating path for the transport vehicle.

[0091] In the embodiments of the present application, the receiving delay is the theoretical time required for the processing device to start processing the radioactive samples currently on the transport vehicle. The radioactive samples only need to be delivered to the processing device within this time. In the case where there are multiple receiving ends, the receiving delay should of course be as short as possible.

[0092] In a specific embodiment, selecting the receiving end with the shortest receiving delay as the transportation target of the transport vehicle specifically includes:

[0093] predefine the receiving speed of each receiving end for the radioactive sample;

[0094] Acquiring the inventory of the radioactive samples corresponding to each receiving end; the inventory includes the temporary storage of the radioactive samples transferred to the receiving end and the loading volume of the radioactive samples on the transport vehicle that has arrived at and selected the receiving end;

[0095] Calculating the receiving delay of each receiving end according to the receiving speed of the radioactive sample and the inventory;

[0096] The receiving end with the shortest receiving delay is selected as the transportation target of the transport vehicle.

[0097] In the present application, the number of production lines carried in the processing device corresponding to the receiving end may be different, the processing efficiency of the production lines may be different, and even the processing procedures for radioactive samples of different concentrations and qualities may be different, which will result in different receiving speeds; therefore, the receiving speed of each receiving end for radioactive samples can be predefined, and the inventory can be calculated based on the receiving speed to obtain the receiving delay.

[0098] Based on actual conditions, transport vehicles generally do not carry detection devices for radioactive samples, and therefore cannot determine the time required to process different radioactive samples; however, in the processing device, there is generally a detection device for radioactive samples, which can perform different processing procedures for different radioactive samples and have different receiving speeds; when this receiving speed is different from the receiving speed used to calculate the receiving delay, the receiving delay can be corrected, and the correction effect will be updated when determining the receiving speed of the radioactive samples in the next carrier.

[0099] To address this phenomenon, a relatively average receiving speed can be used to calculate the receiving delay, or targeted detection devices can be installed on the output end and its front-end equipment to conduct preliminary detection of the discharged radioactive samples, and then match the receiving speed of the processing device; after the radioactive samples are transferred to the transport vehicle through the output end, the receiving speed can be matched according to the detection results of the radioactive samples, and the receiving delay of each receiving end can be calculated.

[0100] It should be clear that the inventory at the receiving end should include radioactive samples that have been transferred to the processing equipment corresponding to the receiving end, radioactive samples on the transport vehicles that have arrived at the receiving end and are waiting in line, and radioactive samples on the transport vehicles that have selected the receiving end but have not arrived can also be counted as its inventory. However, when the transfer relationship is terminated, this data should be excluded synchronously and no longer included in the inventory at the receiving end.

[0101] It can be understood that when establishing a transfer relationship, in order to determine the optimal path, it is based on the output end and the receiving end, but after the optimal path is determined, the transfer relationship should be converted into a transfer relationship between the transport vehicle and the transportation target; when the vehicle on the transport vehicle completes the transfer, the transfer relationship between the transport vehicle and the receiving end can be released.

[0102] S103. Delay expansion of the operating parameters of the transport vehicle according to the receiving delay, so that the transport vehicle meets the receiving requirements when it arrives at the transportation target.

[0103] In an embodiment of the present application, the operating parameters include an optimal path and / or an operating speed; when performing delay extension, one of the parameters may be selected for delay extension, or both parameters may be selected for delay extension at the same time.

[0104] In the present application, meeting the receiving requirements at least includes: the waiting time for receiving after the transport vehicle arrives at the delivery target does not exceed the preset waiting time limit; to meet the continuous demand of the receiving end for radioactive samples so that the processing device does not sit idle.

[0105] After the transport vehicle arrives at the delivery target, if there is no queue, the processing device will transfer the radioactive samples to the internal temporary storage area until the temporary storage area is full; during this process, the processing device can continue to process the radioactive samples and continue to receive radioactive samples; when the temporary storage area is full, the external radioactive samples will no longer be transferred to the inside, and the transport vehicle that arrives at this time will wait in line outside; when the inventory in the temporary storage area is consumed to a certain extent, the radioactive samples on the transport vehicle at the front of the external queue will be transferred to the temporary storage area.

[0106] In an embodiment of the present application, after determining the output end and the receiving end (delivery target) of the transport vehicle, the optimal path between the two can be obtained. However, if it is operated according to the optimal path, it is easy to cause congestion of multiple transport vehicles at the receiving end, and there may also be interference with transport vehicles at other receiving ends. In this case, the present application delays the operation parameters of the transport vehicle to delay the arrival of the transport vehicle at the receiving end within a reasonable range, increase the path of the transport vehicle, reduce the operating speed of the transport vehicle, and increase the operating gap between the transport vehicles, thereby achieving the effect of reducing congestion.

[0107] In one possible implementation, step S103 specifically includes:

[0108] Presetting a standard speed for the transport vehicle when it runs in the global path;

[0109] Delaying the operation parameters of the transport vehicle according to the receiving delay includes:

[0110] Preset a waiting time limit for the queuing time for the transport vehicle to be received after arriving at the transport destination;

[0111] Calculating the running time required for the transport vehicle to run to the transport destination along the optimal path and at the standard speed;

[0112] Calculate the difference between the receiving delay and the running time, and determine whether the difference is less than the waiting time limit:

[0113] If yes, the delay extension is not responded to, and the transport vehicle runs along the optimal path and standard speed;

[0114] If not, the operation parameters of the transport vehicle are extended with a delay to increase the operation time of the transport vehicle so that the transport vehicle meets the receiving requirements when it arrives at the delivery destination;

[0115] In this application, the running time of the transport vehicle is calculated based on the optimal path and standard speed. However, in actual situations, the optimal path may be partially occupied. In this case, this problem should be avoided when performing delay extension; or after obtaining the optimal path, the operation of the transport vehicle is rehearsed. When there is a collision or interference, the optimal path is replanned. However, the re-planned optimal path only serves the needs of this operation (such as serving as the final path, performing delay extension, etc.) and is not entered into the index form.

[0116] In an embodiment of the present application, delay extension includes: increasing the running path of the transport vehicle and / or reducing the running speed of the transport vehicle based on the optimal path.

[0117] Exemplarily, the reduction of the transport vehicle's operating speed can be an overall reduction or a partial reduction. For example, taking operation along the optimal path as an example, the transport vehicle's operating speed on the entire optimal path can be reduced, and no adjustments will be made; the operating speed of the front half of the transport vehicle can also be reduced, and the operating speed of the second half can be restored to the standard speed.

[0118] In a preferred embodiment, when running at a node where paths intersect, a node speed that facilitates rapid path change can be set. The node speed can be equivalent to the standard speed, so as to achieve rapid path change while reducing the operating speed, improve node utilization efficiency, and avoid congestion.

[0119] In specific implementation, the standard speed may include a node speed and a path speed, wherein the node speed remains unchanged and the path speed is the operating speed to be reduced when the delay is extended. The operating speed may be reduced to zero.

[0120] Exemplarily, the operating path of the transport vehicle can be increased based on the optimal path. The nodes based on the global path can be expanded in real time according to the global path at the nodes passed by the optimal path, so that the operating path of the transport vehicle is increased to increase the operating time. However, the expanded route should not interfere with the routes of other transport vehicles at the same time node.

[0121] The starting node of the path extension can be any node on the optimal path except the starting point and the end point, and the end point of the path extension can be a node located after the starting node, so as to avoid safety accidents and data confusion caused by the reverse operation of the transport vehicle.

[0122] Exemplarily, the purpose of path expansion is to increase the operating time of the transport vehicle while reducing the occupancy of the path as much as possible. Thus, a section of the path can be selected on the optimal path, so that the transport vehicle can reciprocate on the section of the path without running in the opposite direction. The section of the path can span multiple intersection nodes, so that the transport vehicle can reciprocate on it while also leaving a feasible path for other transport vehicles to avoid.

[0123] Exemplarily, the reduction of the operating speed and the increase of the operating path can be implemented simultaneously or separately, in order to increase the operating time of the transport vehicle so that the transport vehicle can be fully loaded with receiving requirements when it arrives at the delivery target and fully loaded with the demand for radioactive samples from the processing device, so that the processing device is always in an operating state.

[0124] In a feasible embodiment, the transport vehicle can stop running on the path, and the path section can be a section on the optimal path or a section on the extended path; directly waiting for the reception delay can reduce energy consumption. However, this will inevitably cause the path to be blocked. During the time it occupies, the path section is blocked and cannot be used by other transport vehicles; if it is in a moving state, the path section can be used by other transport vehicles at different time nodes.

[0125] In this application, the loading mass of the transport vehicle varies each time. In special circumstances, the transport vehicle may not be fully loaded, such as when the discharge task of nuclear waste liquid is completed, but the transport vehicle is not fully loaded. At this time, the transfer operation should also be carried out to transfer the radioactive samples to the treatment device for treatment. Therefore, the standard speed can be adjusted according to the actual load of the transport vehicle. For example, when the actual load reaches the preset loading mass, the standard speed can be the minimum; when the actual load does not reach the loading mass, the standard speed can be increased. Of course, the speed limit problem when some carriers are empty should be considered to avoid the carrier from falling.

[0126] In an embodiment of the present application, after the final path of the transport vehicle is determined, it can run on the global path. In order to ensure that the running path of the transport vehicle is accurate and error-free, a detection device for identifying the transport vehicle can be installed on existing equipment, and the waypoints of the transport vehicle can be tracked to determine the correctness of the running route of the transport vehicle.

[0127] In a specific embodiment, the operation route tracking and warning of the transport vehicle specifically includes:

[0128] Obtaining a final path of the transport vehicle, wherein the final path is the optimal path or the path after the delay extension;

[0129] Based on the global path, outputting the sequence of electromagnetic doors that the transport vehicle passes through when running along the final path;

[0130] Obtaining a door-passing signal of the transport vehicle, wherein the door-passing signal is obtained by the electromagnetic door detecting / scanning the transport vehicle;

[0131] When the gate-passing signal does not match the path sequence, an abnormal alarm is issued;

[0132] When the transition signal matches the path sequence, no response is given.

[0133] In the present application, when the global path passes through different areas, there will be an electromagnetic gate to block it. The electromagnetic gate can perform local blocking when a safety hazard occurs, thereby preventing the hazard from expanding and reducing losses. A detection device can be set based on the electromagnetic gate. The detection device may include a scanning module and an identification module. The scanning module is used to obtain the logo on the transport vehicle, and the identification module is used to identify the content of the logo. The content of the logo may include the loading mass, actual load weight, the number of the transport vehicle, etc. According to the setting position of the detection device, the route of the transport vehicle can be obtained in an orderly manner, and then it can be determined whether the actual operation route of the transport vehicle matches the final path.

[0134] Exemplarily, a detection device may be installed at each node of the global path, so as to more effectively and accurately determine the actual operation path of the transport vehicle.

[0135] After the abnormal alarm is issued, a staff member can manually remotely control the abnormally operating transport vehicle to reset it for maintenance; or remotely control it to the predetermined transportation target, and reset the transport vehicle for maintenance after completing the transfer of the radioactive samples.

[0136] In a feasible embodiment, an autonomous correction strategy for the transport vehicle can also be constructed. When a path error occurs, the path can be corrected autonomously to return to the correct operation path. This can be implemented based on the detection device carried by the node, and the orientation can be determined based on the waypoints that have been passed, and the correct operation path can be returned. In this process, its operation weight is reduced to avoid the path for other transport vehicles; after the correction is completed, its operation weight can be restored.
