Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of fusion reactor structural and functional material corrosion research, and particularly relates to a strong magnetic field-high temperature and high pressure water coupling environment material corrosion experiment device and method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Achieving controlled utilization of nuclear fusion energy has great significance for solving the energy problem of human society. Fusion reactors will be used to achieve controlled utilization of nuclear fusion energy, high temperature plasma is confined by strong magnetic field, and heat is transported to the outside of the reactor by the water cooling system of the cladding structure, and then power generation is realized by the generator set after heat exchange. The pipes of the fusion reactor cladding water cooling system are usually made of low activation steel or stainless steel as the structural material, and high temperature and high pressure water (about 15 MPa, 300 DEG C) flowing at high speed as the cooling medium. The inner wall of the pipe will be corroded in the high temperature and high pressure water environment, on the one hand, the corrosion will damage the inner wall of the pipe, affect the service life of the water cooling system, on the other hand, the corrosion products produced by the corrosion will enter the flowing high temperature and high pressure water and migrate with it, and will generate radioactive activated corrosion products by interacting with the high energy neutrons generated by the fusion reaction, which will pose a threat to personnel and environmental safety. In the current scheme, the future fusion reactor can generate a strong magnetic field of up to 10 T order, which is used to control the high temperature plasma. In addition to the high temperature plasma, the cladding of the fusion reactor and the water cooling system included therein are also in a strong magnetic field environment. Accordingly, the corrosion process of the cooling system pipe will also be carried out in the strong magnetic field environment. According to the research results in other fields, the magnetic field environment may promote or inhibit the corrosion process of the material, but the conclusion is not clear. Therefore, it is necessary to study the influence of 10 T order strong magnetic field environment on the corrosion effect of the material. Due to the lack of strong magnetic field experimental conditions, the research on the corrosion of the material in the 10 T order magnetic field environment is very scarce, especially the research on the corrosion of the material in the coupling environment of high temperature and high pressure water and 10 T order strong magnetic field. 10 T strong magnetic field needs to be generated by superconducting coil in extremely low temperature environment, and the high temperature experiment environment of high temperature and high pressure water will affect the operation of the superconducting coil. SUMMARY

[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems, research the corrosion of the material in the coupling environment of high temperature and high pressure water and 10 T order strong magnetic field, and further clarify the influence of 10 T order strong magnetic field environment on the corrosion effect of the material, the present application provides a strong magnetic field-high temperature and high pressure water coupling environment material corrosion experiment device and method, which realizes the corrosion experiment of the material in the 10 T order magnetic field environment, and is beneficial to accurately research the influence of 10 T order strong magnetic field environment on the corrosion effect of the material, and provides a reference for the design of fusion reactor.

[0010] Step S4: When the pressure and temperature of the experimental solution at the experimental tube section reach the predetermined temperature and pressure, turn on the strong magnetic field generating device, and the magnetic field strength will increase from 0. After the magnetic field strength reaches the required magnetic field strength for the experiment, open the experimental branch of the pressure water circulation loop and close the heating and cooling branch; when the readings of one thermocouple and one pressure gauge in the experimental branch reach the predetermined temperature and pressure that the experimental material can withstand, the corrosion experiment begins; the control and data acquisition system maintains a constant pressure and temperature of the experimental solution by adjusting the power of the heating module.

[0011] Step S5: After the pressure and temperature of the experimental solution have been kept constant for a period of time, open the heating and cooling branch of the pressure water circulation loop, close the experimental branch, open the pressure reducing valve of the experimental branch, and when the pressure and temperature of the experimental solution in the experimental branch are the same as those of the outside environment, drain the remaining experimental solution in the experimental branch, disassemble the experimental pipe section, and the corrosion experiment ends.

[0012] Step S6: The control and data acquisition system reduces the temperature of the pressure water generating device by adjusting the power of the heating module; when the pressure and temperature of the experimental solution in the temperature rising and falling branch of the pressure water circulation loop are the same as the outside, the high-temperature pump is turned off;

[0013] Step S7: The tubular sample is directly taken out from the experimental tube segment, the heat insulation material is removed, and after being sufficiently dried in a vacuum drying box, the mass is accurately measured to 0.0001 g, the mass change before and after the corrosion experiment is calculated, and the sample pipeline is cut into two pieces of the same size and shape along the axis direction to expose the inner wall of the pipeline;

[0014] Step S8: The sample is analyzed.

After the experiment, the pressure water in the experimental branch is rapidly released by using a pressure reducing valve, which can minimize the interference of the temperature rising and falling time on the corrosion time calculation.
