[0002] Steam generator is a very important heat exchange equipment in nuclear industry thermal energy device, and it is also the weak link in the whole thermal energy device. The failure modes of steam generator include corrosion, abrasion, fatigue, vibration, etc. Foreign operation experience shows that about 50% of pressurized water reactors are affected by normal operation, reduced power operation or even forced to shut down due to steam generator damage. Steam generator tube is the smallest steam generating unit. Hundreds of steam generator tubes are welded and connected with titanium alloy tube sheets to form a steam generator. As the heat transfer interface of the first and second circuits, it is also part of the main system pressure boundary and is one of the weakest links of the steam generator. If the rupture of the steam generator tube is accompanied by the failure of the safety facilities, it will cause catastrophic consequences such as melting of the reactor and huge economic losses. In the early stage of the failure mode and influence analysis of steam generator tube, it is shown that stress fatigue failure is the typical failure mechanism of steam generator tube cracking and damage.

The present invention provides a fatigue life reliability analysis method for steam generator tube components, which can be applied to the efficient evaluation of the fatigue reliability of steam generator tubes under multi-field loads and fatigue reliability early warning.
[0004] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0005] A method for analyzing the fatigue reliability of a steam generating tube comprises the following steps:
[0006] Step 1: Use 3D modeling software to build a digital prototype simulation model of the steam generating tube and supporting structures;
[0007] Step 2: Use ANSYS finite element software to analyze the stress and strain response of the steam generating tube established in step 1 under the action of temperature load, pressure load, and thermal shock load, so as to determine the assessment position of the steam generating tube;
[0008] Step 3: According to the probabilistic fatigue life curve of the steam generating tube structure, a fatigue failure analysis model of the steam generating tube is constructed; the failure state function of the steam generating tube is recorded as Y = g(X), where X = {X1, X2, ..., X n} Trepresents the random input variables that affect the fatigue life of the steam generating tube, such as material properties, external loads, and uncertain parameters of the PSN curve. Y represents the difference between the actual life and the design life of the steam generating tube.
[0009] Step 4: Based on steps 2 and 3, the fatigue reliability of the steam generating tube is estimated using subset simulation combined with adaptive Kriging.
[0010] Furthermore, in step 1, UG software is used to establish a three-dimensional prototype simulation model of the steam generating tube. The established steam generating tube model takes into account the welding process structure of the steam generating tube and its assembly connection with the water supply header tube plate.

[0025]
[0026] In the formula, Δε t is the total strain at the dangerous point, N f is the low cycle fatigue life of the turbine blade; the parameter estimates of the elastic section and the plastic section are
[0027] Step 3.2: Construction of failure state function; For the reliability analysis of the steam generating tube, considering the uncertainty of its material properties and the uncertainty of the external load, the elastic modulus, thermal conductivity, Poisson's ratio of the steam generating tube material at 20℃, 100℃, 200℃ and 300℃ and the water pressure on the steam generating tube can be regarded as uncertainty variables that obey the normal distribution, denoted as X R In addition, the standard normal random variable μ in the probabilistic life model also affects the fatigue life of the steam generating tube, thus affecting the fatigue life N of the steam generating tube. f The input variable is represented as X = {X R ,μ} T , fatigue life N f Expressed as a function N about X f (X); Set the fatigue life design value of the steam generating tube to N D , then the fatigue failure state function of the steam generating tube is expressed as

Y represents the difference between the actual life and the design life of the steam generating tube.
[0063] Step 4: Estimate the fatigue reliability of the steam generating tube using subset simulation combined with adaptive Kriging (SS-AK).
[0064] The following are specific instructions:
[0065] The fatigue reliability analysis of the steam generating tube of the present invention follows Figure 3 The overall technical route shown. Based on this, the present invention, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, further describes in detail the fatigue reliability analysis method of the steam generator tube combining subset simulation with adaptive Kriging proposed in the present invention through a specific implementation case. However, the example implementation can be implemented in various forms and should not be understood as being limited to the examples set forth herein; on the contrary, this embodiment is provided to make the present invention more comprehensive and complete, and to fully convey the concept of the example implementation to engineers and technicians in the field. The described features, structures, or characteristics may be in one or more embodiments in any suitable manner. In the following description, many specific details are provided to give a full understanding of the embodiments of the present disclosure.
[0066] Step 1: Use UG software to establish a three-dimensional prototype simulation model of the steam generating tube. The steam generating tube model established in the present invention takes into account the welding process structure of the steam generating tube and its assembly connection with the water header tube plate;
[0067] Step 2: Use Ansys finite element software to analyze the stress and strain of the steam generating tube model established in step 1 under the action of temperature load, pressure load, impact load, etc., and determine the fatigue analysis assessment position. For the present embodiment, the finite element simulation analysis includes the following steps:
[0068] Step 2.1: Define material properties. The steam generator in the present invention uses titanium alloy, which has the physical properties of high thermal conductivity and low expansion coefficient. Its physical properties are strongly anisotropic.

[0072]
[0073] Step 2.2: Load analysis and application. According to the given typical mission profile of the steam generator tube, the thermal analysis of the steam generator tube is carried out in ANSYS to calculate the transient temperature field of the steam generator tube wall and the inner and outer wall temperature time history. According to the different working conditions of the steam generator tube wall, the corresponding inner and outer wall temperature time history is applied as a known parameter to the corresponding nodes of the inner and outer walls of the steam generator tube analysis model. Considering the load group pair, during the static analysis process, the applied loads also include thermal shock loads and water pressure loads.
[0074] Step 2.3: Apply boundary conditions. The steam generating tube of the present invention is assembled by welding the transition tube section and the tube sheet of the steam generating tube. The axial displacement and radial displacement of the steam generating tube are limited by the weld, which is a rigid connection. Therefore, the present invention couples the corresponding nodes between the transition tube section of the steam generating tube and the tube sheet, and applies boundary conditions by fixing the contact surface without separation.
[0075] Step 2.4: Mesh division. In thermal analysis, the mesh division adopts secondary heat transfer tetrahedron mesh; in force-thermal coupling analysis, the mesh selection is 4-node thermocouple tetrahedron mesh.
[0076] Step 2.5: Analysis of calculation results: Temperature load, thermal shock load and water pressure load are applied to the model of the steam generating tube to obtain the stress-strain distribution cloud diagram under different working conditions. Figure 1 The local thermal analysis stress cloud diagram of the steam generating tube is given. On this basis, the dangerous points of the steam generating tube are determined based on the maximum stress principle, and the dangerous points are used as fatigue assessment sites. Considering that under the action of temperature load, impact load and water pressure load, the stress at the assessment point is often large, and it is easy to enter the plastic zone and thus cause low-cycle fatigue failure, the example of the present invention mainly considers the low-cycle fatigue failure mode.
[0077] Step 3: According to the PSN curve of the steam generating tube structure, the fatigue reliability analysis model is established to obtain the failure state function of the steam generating tube Y = g(X), where X = {X1, X2, ..., X n} T represents the random input variables that affect the fatigue life of the steam generating tube, such as material properties, external force loads, and uncertain parameters of the PSN curve. Y represents the difference between the actual life and the design life of the steam generating tube. The model construction and analysis calculation process are as follows:
[0078] Step 3.1: Determine the low-cycle probabilistic fatigue analysis model of the steam generating tube. The Manson-Coffin formula is a commonly used low-cycle fatigue life prediction model. The Manson-Coffin formula is used in the present invention to predict the fatigue life of the steam generating tube. The expression is as follows:
[0079]
[0080] In the above formula, Δε t is the total strain amplitude, Δε e is the elastic strain amplitude, Δε p is the plastic strain amplitude, σ' f is the fatigue strength coefficient, b is the fatigue strength index, ε' f is the fatigue plasticity coefficient, and c is the fatigue plasticity index.
[0081] In order to describe the dispersion of low-cycle fatigue life, the Manson-Coffin formula is randomized and the probability model of the low-cycle life of the steam generator tube is established as follows:
[0082]
[0083] In the above formula, y e =y p =lg(2N f ), x e =lg(Δε e / 2), x p =lg(Δε p / 2), a e =-lg(σ' f / E) / b,a p =-lg(ε' f ) / c,b e =1 / b, b p =1 / c, let the coefficient a of the standard linear equation of elastic-plasticity be e , a p , b e , b p are all random variables, are their means respectively, and μ is a standard normal random variable. Finally, the low-cycle probability fatigue life model of the steam generating tube is obtained as follows:
[0084]
[0085] In the formula, Δε t is the total strain at the dangerous point, N f is the low cycle fatigue life of the turbine blade. Among them, the parameter estimates of the elastic section and the plastic section are The above parameters can be solved by linear heteroskedastic regression analysis method.
[0086] According to the mission profile load of the steam generating tube in step 2.2, the fatigue life N of the steam generating tube is calculated using the linear cumulative damage theory - Miner theory. f .
[0087] Step 3.2: Construction of failure state function. For the reliability analysis of the steam generator tube, considering the uncertainty of its material properties and the uncertainty of the external load, the elastic modulus, thermal conductivity, Poisson's ratio of the steam generator tube material at 20℃, 100℃, 200℃ and 300℃ and the water pressure on the steam generator tube can be regarded as uncertainty variables that obey the normal distribution, denoted as X R In addition, the standard normal random variable μ in the probabilistic life model also affects the fatigue life of the steam generating tube, thus affecting the fatigue life N of the steam generating tube. f The input variable can be expressed as X = {X R ,μ} T , fatigue life N f It can be expressed as a function N about X f (X). Set the fatigue life design value of the steam generating tube to N D , then the fatigue failure state function of the steam generating tube can be expressed as
[0088] Y=g(X)=N f -N D (5)
[0089] Step 4: Estimate the fatigue reliability of the steam generating tube using the SS-AK method. The SS-AK algorithm implementation flow chart is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the specific steps include:
[0090] Step 4.1: Set the initial values of pointer k and conditional probability value p0, k = 1, p0 = 0.1, where k is the intermediate failure event F k The serial number of the
[0091] Step 4.2: According to the probability density function f of the input variable X X (x) Number of samples drawn N k, forming a candidate sample pool
[0092] Step 4.3: From S k Randomly select q0 samples from As the initial training sample, and calculate the state function value Construct training sample set T ss ={x t ,g t}. t Arrange in ascending order of value, and record the result as Take the [p0q0]th value of the sequence as the intermediate failure event F k The failure threshold b k ,Right now
[0093] Step 4.4: According to the training sample set T ss Establish the Kriging surrogate model of the failure state function g(x)
[0094] Step 4.5: Through the proxy model Calculate S k N k The predicted mean of the failure state function of samples and the predicted standard deviation
[0095] Step 4.6: Calculate S by the following formula k N k The improved U learning function value of samples:
[0096]
[0097] Step 4.7: When show In S k If converged, execute step 4.8; otherwise, select the sample point Calculate g(x u ), and (x u ,g(x u )) Update the training set T ss , the updated T ss T ss =T ss ∪(x u ,g(x u )) and return to step 4.4.
[0098] Step 4.8: From S k Select the failure domain F k The samples within The sample is denoted as Where Q k F represents the failure domain k The number of samples within. Then, the conditional failure probability P is calculated by the following formula k Estimated value of
[0099]
[0100] Step 4.9: If b k = 0, end the SS-AK method, and the final estimated value of the failure probability is for Otherwise, proceed to step 4.10.
[0101] Step 4.10: Let k = k + 1, and use k-1 M k-1 Failure samples As the initial sample of the Markov chain, the MCMC method generates a conditional distribution of size Nk Sample pool
[0102] Step 4.11: Use Calculate S k N k The predicted mean of the failure state function of samples Arrange in ascending order of value, and record the result as Take the first [p0N of this sequence k ] value as the intermediate failure event F k The failure threshold b k ,Right now If b k ≤0, let b k =0, return to step 4.6; otherwise, return directly to step 4.6.
[0103] According to the above steps, the failure probability of the fatigue reliability of the steam generating tube in this paper is calculated using the SS-AK method to be 4.19×10 -4 , the number of finite element model calls is 10 3 In the related technology, the Monte Carlo digital simulation method can also estimate the fatigue reliability of the steam generating tube. Under the same calculation accuracy, the Monte Carlo simulation method can call the finite element model of the steam generating tube 10 times. 6 This shows that the method proposed in this paper has a much smaller amount of calculation than the Monte Carlo method under the same calculation accuracy, which greatly improves the efficiency of fatigue reliability analysis of steam generator tubes.
[0104] In summary, the purpose of the present invention is to solve the problem of quantitative analysis of fatigue reliability of nuclear steam generator tubes and to improve the efficiency of fatigue reliability analysis of steam generators. The method solves the problem of single and low efficiency of fatigue reliability assessment of steam generator tubes and is suitable for reliability assessment of steam generator tubes in engineering practice.
