Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a liquid sampling device, a sampling method and an application. Background Art

[0002] As a fourth-generation nuclear reactor, the molten salt reactor uses molten salt as a coolant, so the composition of the molten salt in the reactor is directly related to the safe and stable operation of the experimental reactor. However, the molten salt in the experimental reactor has the characteristics of high temperature, strong corrosiveness, and high radioactivity, which makes sampling difficult. In addition, when sampling in the reactor, it is necessary to avoid introducing impurities into the reactor during the sampling process, and at the same time, the samples taken out should not be contaminated.

[0003] At present, there are two types of sampling devices for high-temperature radioactivity in the reactor. One is the capsule sampling device for molten salt reactors of Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in the United States, and the other is "A sampling device for radioactive metal liquids" (patent number CN 211627032U) of China General Nuclear Power Corporation, which is used for high-temperature liquid metal sampling. ORNL's capsule sampling device is located far away from the experimental reactor. The sampling device is connected to the reactor through an oblique sampling pipeline and separated by a valve. When sampling, the capsule is mounted on the sampling device by a manipulator, and then the valve is opened. The motor in the sampling device rotates and lowers the wire rope to put the capsule into the reactor; after the sampling is completed, the motor in the sampling device rotates in the opposite direction to retract the wire rope and lift the capsule back into the sampling device, and then the manipulator removes the capsule to complete the sampling process. In the sampling device of CGN, the sampling mechanism is directly set above the pile. The lead shielding tank and the sampling piece are sent to the bottom of the sampling mechanism through the motion mechanism. The sampling mechanism is remotely operated to complete the sampling, and then the sampled piece is sent back to the sampling room or safe area through the conveying mechanism. From the above introduction, it can be seen that to carry out high-temperature radioactive sampling, the personnel operation area must be far away from the sampling point. In the device of ORNL, the sampling device is far away from the sampling point, and the sampling device and the sampling point are connected by a pipeline; in the device of CGN, the sampling mechanism is above the sampling point, and the sample taken is sent to the distant sampling room through the track and the conveying mechanism. The sampling mechanism of CGN is placed near the sampling point. If the sampling mechanism equipment fails and maintenance is required, it is difficult for personnel to reach and maintain due to the high temperature and high radioactive working environment near the sampling point; in addition, the space inside the molten salt reactor is small, and there are many equipments that need to be moved, and there is not enough space to install the sampling mechanism at a close distance. Therefore, sampling in the molten salt reactor will adopt the ORNL device model, that is, the sampling mechanism is placed far away from the sampling point, and the capsule is transported to the sampling point through an inclined sampling pipe to complete the sampling.

[0004] There are still the following problems when directly using ORNL's device to take samples inside the molten salt reactor: one is the capsule positioning problem. When sampling, the capsule can be immersed below the molten salt liquid level while the wire rope cannot touch the molten salt. Considering the fluctuation of the molten salt liquid level when the molten salt pump in the reactor is running, a chain that can be immersed in the molten salt and can be bent will be connected between the wire rope and the capsule. However, due to space limitations, the length of the chain is generally no more than 10 cm, and the sampling position is far away from the sampling device (more than 10 m). Coupled with the "black box" environment inside the reactor, how to ensure that the capsule can accurately descend to the appropriate position after multiple uses (more than 500 times) is undoubtedly a challenge; second, the problem of operational convenience. Due to the high radioactivity of the molten salt in the reactor, the sampling device needs to be placed in the hot chamber. ORNL uses a semi-sealed side-opening inner cabin structure. The inner cabin door is small and not convenient for manipulator operation. In addition, there is the problem of capsules falling into the inner cabin and being difficult to find; third, the problem of wire rope entanglement. In ORNL, there have been many cases where capsules were stuck in the pipeline, and the motor continued to lower the wire rope, resulting in the problem of wire rope entanglement; fourth, the problem of maintenance. The sampling device is placed in the hot chamber, and personnel cannot reach it directly, making it difficult to maintain the equipment when it fails. Summary of the invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome at least one of the defects of the prior art such as difficult positioning, difficult operation, wire rope winding and difficult maintenance, and to provide a liquid sampling device, a sampling method and an application.

[0006] The present invention solves the above technical problems through the following technical solutions:

In step S3, before the isolation valve is opened, the inner chamber is evacuated to a vacuum, and then an inert gas is introduced into the inner chamber; the inert gas is argon; the inert gas is introduced into the inner chamber until the pressure in the inner chamber is higher than the pressure of the liquid container; The liquid sampling device further comprises a gas replacement module, and the gas replacement module comprises an air inlet pipe and an air outlet pipe connected to the side wall of the inner chamber. In step S4, after the isolation valve is closed, the inner chamber is evacuated to a vacuum, and then an inert gas is introduced into the inner chamber; the inert gas is argon; the inert gas is introduced into the inner chamber until the pressure in the inner chamber is higher than the pressure of the sealed box; In step S4, after the isolation valve is closed, the inner door is raised, and the sampling container is raised to leave the inner chamber.

10. Use of the liquid sampling device according to any one of claims 1 to 6, characterized in that: It is used for sampling radioactive molten salt in the first loop of reactor or cooling salt in the second loop of reactor; When used for sampling radioactive molten salt in the first loop of a reactor, the inner door opening and closing module and the sampling movement module are located in the hot chamber.
