[0022] To improve the efficiency of irradiation testing, multiple irradiated samples are typically placed in an irradiation sample loading device, which is then placed in the irradiation testing apparatus for testing. In related technologies, the irradiation sample loading device uses a single irradiation sample container to hold all irradiated samples, and all samples undergo irradiation testing at the same temperature and coolant flow rate. However, to study the performance of irradiated samples at different temperatures and coolant flow rates, multiple tests are required, which is complex, time-consuming, and inefficient.

[0023] To address at least one aspect of the aforementioned technical problems, embodiments of this application provide an irradiation sample loading device.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 The diagram shows a schematic of the structure of an irradiation sample loading device 100 provided in an embodiment of this application, which is used to place multiple irradiation samples in an irradiation test device for irradiation testing.

[0025] The irradiation sample loading device 100 provided in the embodiments of this application may include a plurality of sample containers 10, a positioning support 20, and a mounting part 30. Each sample container 10 has a receiving cavity 101 in which a plurality of irradiated samples are disposed. The receiving cavity 101 is configured to allow coolant to flow in to cool the irradiated samples. The positioning support 20 is configured to support the plurality of sample containers 10 and position them. The mounting part 30 is configured to connect to the positioning support 20 for mounting the plurality of sample containers 10 to an irradiation testing apparatus. The sample containers 10 are configured to adjust the temperature and coolant flow rate within the receiving cavity 101, so that irradiated samples disposed in the receiving cavities 101 of different sample containers 10 can undergo irradiation testing at different temperatures and coolant flow rates.

[0026] The irradiation sample loading device 100 provided in the embodiments of this application can adjust the temperature and coolant flow rate in the receiving cavity 101, so that the irradiation sample can be irradiated at different temperatures and coolant flow rates at the same time, thereby simplifying the test operation and improving the test efficiency.

[0027] In some embodiments, the coolant may be liquid metal.

[0028] In some embodiments, during an irradiation experiment, one or more sample containers 10 may be removed individually for testing.

[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 This diagram shows a cross-sectional view of the sample container 10 of the irradiation sample loading device 100 provided in an embodiment of this application. In some embodiments, each sample container 10 may include an inner shell 11 and an outer shell 12. The inner shell 11 is configured to form a receiving cavity 101; the outer shell 12 is disposed outside the inner shell 11, and a temperature regulating cavity 102 is formed between the inner shell 11 and the outer shell 12 for regulating the temperature within the receiving cavity 101; wherein, each sample container 10's receiving cavity 101 can hold one irradiated sample. In such embodiments, the temperature within the receiving cavity 101 of each sample container 10 can be regulated by the temperature regulating cavity 102, so that the receiving cavities 101 of different sample containers 10 are at different temperatures, thereby allowing irradiated samples located in the receiving cavities 101 of different sample containers 10 to be tested at different temperatures, which is beneficial for studying the performance of irradiated samples at different temperatures.

[0030] See Figure 2 In some embodiments, each sample container 10 further includes an inflation conduit 13 configured to be in fluid communication with a temperature regulating chamber 102, for filling the temperature regulating chamber 102 with a mixed gas. By adjusting the injected mixed gas, the temperature inside the receiving chamber 101 can be regulated. In such embodiments, the thermal conductivity of the temperature regulating chamber 102 can be changed by adjusting the injected mixed gas, thereby changing the amount of heat transfer inside the receiving chamber 101, and thus regulating the temperature inside the receiving chamber 101.

[0031] In some embodiments, the mixed gas introduced into the temperature regulating cavity 102 may be a mixture of He and Ar. In some embodiments, the thermal conductivity of the temperature regulating cavity 102 can be changed by adjusting the volume fraction of the two gases in the He and Ar mixture and the gas pressure of the mixture.

[0032] See Figure 2 In some embodiments, the outer casing 12 has an air inlet 103, and the inflation pipe 13 is fixedly connected to the periphery of the air inlet 103.

[0033] See Figure 2 In some embodiments, each sample container 10 has a coolant inlet 104 and a coolant outlet 105, and the opening degree of both the coolant inlet 104 and the coolant outlet 105 of each sample container 10 is adjustable to adjust the coolant flow rate within each sample container 10. In such embodiments, by adjusting the coolant flow rate within each sample container 10, irradiated samples in different sample containers 10 can be subjected to irradiation tests under different coolant flow rates, which is beneficial for studying the performance of irradiated samples under different coolant flow rates.

[0034] See Figure 2 In some embodiments, the sidewalls of the inner shell 11 and the outer shell 12 are respectively formed with the same inlet through-hole 107 at the same axial height. In some embodiments, each sample container 10 may further include an inlet connecting pipe 14 disposed in the temperature regulating cavity 102, one end of the inlet connecting pipe 14 being fixedly connected to the periphery of the inlet through-hole 107 of the inner shell 11, and the other end being fixedly connected to the periphery of the inlet through-hole 107 of the outer shell 12; the inlet connecting pipe 14, the inlet through-hole 107 of the inner shell 11, and the inlet through-hole 107 of the outer shell 12 together form a coolant inlet 104.

[0035] See Figure 2 In some embodiments, a coolant outlet 105 and a cooling channel 120 are formed on the top of the outer casing 12. In some embodiments, each sample container 10 further includes a coolant conduit 15 disposed in the cooling channel 120 of the outer casing 12. One end of the coolant conduit 15 communicates with the receiving cavity 101, and the other end communicates with the coolant outlet 105, so that the coolant in the receiving cavity 101 can flow out of the sample container 10. In some embodiments, the coolant conduit 15 is fixedly connected to the periphery of the coolant outlet 105.

[0036] Figure 3 This diagram illustrates the structure of the axial positioning support 21 of the irradiation sample loading device 100 provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 4 This diagram illustrates the structure of the radial positioning support 22 of the irradiation sample loading device 100 provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the positioning support 20 may include a plurality of axial positioning supports 21, a plurality of radial positioning supports 22, and a fixing member 23. The plurality of axial positioning supports 21 provide axial positioning and axial support for a plurality of sample containers 10, with each sample container 10 disposed between two axial positioning supports 21. The plurality of radial positioning supports 22 provide radial positioning and radial support for a plurality of sample containers 10, with each radial positioning support 22 disposed between two axial positioning supports 21 and at an axial midpoint height of each sample container 10. The fixing member 23 is used to fix the plurality of axial positioning supports 21 and the plurality of radial positioning supports 22. The plurality of axial positioning supports 21 and the plurality of radial positioning supports 22 are fixedly connected to the fixing member 23, and the plurality of sample containers 10 are respectively located at different axial heights of the fixing member 23, so as to be positioned and supported by the axial positioning supports 21 and the radial positioning supports 22 disposed at corresponding axial heights. In this embodiment, the axial positioning support 21 and the radial positioning support 22 are used to position the multiple sample containers 10, which facilitates the installation of the multiple sample containers 10; at the same time, by supporting the multiple sample containers 10, the displacement of the sample containers 10 can be prevented.

[0037] See Figure 3 In some embodiments, the axial positioning support 21 has a mounting hole 213, through which the axial positioning support 21 is sleeved onto the fixing member 23. In some embodiments, the axial positioning support 21 and the radial positioning support 22 are fixedly connected to the fixing member 23 by welding.

[0038] The fastener 23 is, for example, a long support tube with a regular hexagonal cross-section. The radial positioning support 22 is, for example, a spring support ring made of 316H stainless steel.

[0039] See Figure 1 In some embodiments, multiple sample containers 10 are evenly distributed at different axial heights of the fixing member 23. Multiple sample containers 10 are fixed at each axial height of the fixing member 23. Multiple sample containers 10 located at the same axial height share the same axial support and radial support. For example, the number of sample containers 10 can be 48. The 48 sample containers 10 are evenly distributed at 8 axial heights of the fixing member 23, with 6 sample containers 10 evenly distributed at each axial height. The upper and lower ends of each sample container 10 are positioned and supported by two axial positioning supports 21, and each sample container 10 is positioned and supported by a radial positioning support 22 located at its axial midpoint height.

[0040] In some embodiments, the axial height of the plurality of sample containers 10 may cover the height of the bottom of the core, the active section of the core, and the top of the core, in order to study the performance of the irradiated sample at different locations within the reactor.

[0041] In some embodiments, to facilitate the influence on the irradiation performance of irradiated samples, the irradiation testing apparatus is equipped with measuring instruments required for the irradiation test. Correspondingly, the irradiation testing apparatus also includes measuring instrument cables connected to the measuring instruments required for the irradiation test. In some embodiments, the measuring instrument cables connected to the measuring instruments required for the irradiation test can be housed within the fixing member 23 and extend into the irradiation testing apparatus. In such embodiments, the fixing member 23 can separate the measuring instrument cables from the liquid metal serving as a coolant, preventing the measuring instrument cables from contacting the coolant, thereby improving the reliability and service life of the measuring instrument cables, and also facilitating maintenance of the measuring instrument cables.

[0042] In some embodiments, the inflation line 13 is connected to an external gas supply line to allow the mixed gas to enter the temperature regulating chamber 102 of each sample container 10, thus achieving independent gas intake for each sample container 10's temperature regulating chamber 102. Accordingly, the number of external gas supply lines is equal to the number of sample containers 10 to achieve independent gas intake. In some embodiments, the external gas supply line may also be disposed within the fixing member 23, which has an air inlet hole. The inflation line 13 can enter the fixing member 23 through the air inlet hole and connect to the gas supply line.

[0043] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, each sample container 10 has two sample mounting portions 106 formed on its sidewall, and each axial positioning support 21 has a mounting mating portion 211 formed on its periphery, which conforms to the sample mounting portions 106. The two sample mounting portions 106 of each sample container 10 can connect with the mounting mating portions 211 of the two axial positioning supports 21, thereby positioning each sample container 10 between the two axial positioning supports 21. In such embodiments, by positioning each sample container 10 between the two axial positioning supports 21, axial positioning of each sample container 10 can be achieved, and axial support can be provided for each sample container 10, preventing each sample container 10 from falling off due to flow-induced vibration forces. Furthermore, it also facilitates the thermal expansion of each sample container 10 in the axial and radial directions.

[0044] See Figure 2 In some embodiments, two sample mounting portions 106 are formed on the inner shell 11 and the outer shell 12, respectively.

[0045] See Figure 2 and Figure 3In some embodiments, the sample mounting portion 106 is a groove, and the mounting mating portion 211 is a notch. The radius of the notch is larger than the radius of the groove, and the radius of the notch is smaller than the outer diameter of the sample container 10. In such embodiments, the radius of the notch is larger than the radius of the groove, which facilitates the sample mounting portion 106 entering the mounting mating portion 211 to achieve the fit between the sample mounting portion 106 and the mounting mating portion 211; at the same time, the radius of the notch is smaller than the outer diameter of the sample container 10, making it less likely for the sample mounting portion 106 to detach from the mounting mating portion 211.

[0046] In some embodiments, the irradiation test apparatus may include a test outer shell and a test inner shell disposed inside the test outer shell, and a sample loading device is used to place multiple irradiated samples in the test inner shell of the irradiation test apparatus, the test inner shell containing a coolant.

[0047] In some embodiments, the irradiation testing apparatus further includes a drive unit disposed within the test housing for driving the flow of coolant within the test inner housing. See also Figure 3 Each axial positioning support 21 has multiple cooling through holes 212. The driving unit can drive the coolant in the test inner shell to flow through the multiple cooling through holes 212 to agitate and homogenize the coolant flow field in the test inner shell. The coolant flowing through the multiple cooling through holes 212 flows into each sample container 10. In this embodiment, by agitating and homogenizing the coolant flow field in the test inner shell through the cooling through holes 212, it can be ensured that the coolant flowing into the receiving cavity 101 of different sample containers 10 has only a different flow rate, while other properties (such as temperature) are the same. This is beneficial for accurately studying the performance of irradiated samples under different coolant flow rates.

[0048] See Figure 4 In some embodiments, each radial positioning support 22 may include multiple radial positioning support portions 221, multiple support connecting portions 222, and multiple fixed connecting portions 223. Each radial positioning support portion 221 is disposed at the axial midpoint of each sample container 10, providing radial positioning and radial support for the sample container 10; multiple support connecting portions 222 are disposed between two adjacent radial positioning support portions 221, connecting the two adjacent radial positioning support portions 221; each fixed connecting portion 223 is formed in each radial positioning support portion 221, and the multiple fixed connecting portions 223 are fixedly connected to the fixing member 23. In such embodiments, the cooperation of multiple fixed connecting portions 223, multiple support connecting portions 222, and multiple radial positioning support portions 221 can provide radial support for multiple sample containers 10 disposed at the same axial height; at the same time, it can also limit the displacement of multiple sample containers 10 disposed at the same axial height in the radial direction, achieving radial positioning.

[0049] In some embodiments, the radial positioning support 221 conforms to the outer shell 12 of the sample container 10 to provide radial positioning and support for the sample container 10.

[0050] In some embodiments, the sample mounting portion 106 of the sample container 10 is plugged into and connected to the mounting mating portion 211 of the axial positioning support 21, and the radial positioning support portion 221 of the radial positioning support 22 is plugged into and connected to the sample container 10 to provide radial positioning and radial support for the sample container 10. This configuration enables rapid assembly and disassembly of the sample container 10, allowing for quick assembly and disassembly of a single sample container 10 or all sample containers 10 at a certain height, even during irradiation testing.

[0051] See Figure 1 In some embodiments, the mounting portion 30 may include a first column 31, a second column 32, and an elastic member. The first column 31 is connected to the fixing member 23; the second column 32 is connected to the first column 31 and is used to mount multiple sample containers 10 to the irradiation testing device; the elastic member is disposed on the first column 31 and is used to provide force to the second column 32 to prevent the irradiation sample loading device 100 from tipping over. In such embodiments, the elastic member provides force to the second column 32 to prevent the irradiation sample loading device 100 from tipping over due to external forces such as flow-induced vibration, facilitating the smooth conduct of the irradiation test.

[0052] In some embodiments, the irradiation testing apparatus includes a sample support plate with a sample mounting hole. A second column 32 can be inserted into the sample mounting hole, and an elastic member can abut against the sample support plate to provide a force to the second column 32 to fix it to the sample support plate, thereby ensuring that the irradiation sample loading device 100 will not tip over.

[0053] The elastic element is, for example, a spring. The first pillar 31 and the second pillar 32 are, for example, solid structures that transition from a regular hexagonal prism to a cylinder.

[0054] In some embodiments, the first column 31 and the fastener 23 are connected by welding.

[0055] In some embodiments, the irradiation sample loading device 100 may further include a temperature sensor for measuring the temperature within the receiving cavity 101. In some embodiments, each sample container 10 also has a mounting interface extending through the inner shell 11 and the outer shell 12 for mounting the temperature sensor. The temperature sensor is, for example, a thermocouple.

[0056] See Figure 1In some embodiments, the irradiation sample loading device 100 may further include an instrument fitting 40 connected to the fixture 23. The instrument fitting 40 is configured such that the measuring instrument lines connected to the measuring instruments required for the irradiation test, as well as the external gas supply lines, can enter the fixture 23 through the instrument fitting 40. In such embodiments, the measuring instrument lines can also be isolated from the coolant through the instrument fitting 40, preventing contact between the measuring instrument lines and the coolant, thereby improving the reliability and service life of the measuring instrument lines, and also facilitating maintenance of the measuring instrument lines.

[0057] Instrument fitting 40 is, for example, a hollow tube that transitions from a regular hexagonal prism to a cylinder. In some embodiments, instrument fitting 40 is connected to fastener 23 by welding.

[0058] Regarding the embodiments of this application, it should also be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of this application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other to obtain new embodiments.

[0059] The above are merely specific embodiments of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. The scope of protection of this application shall be determined by the scope of the claims.
