[0002] Stress corrosion has always been a typical failure mode of metal materials such as high-strength steel, stainless steel and nickel-based alloys. It is also a common problem that many industries, including the nuclear power field, need to solve urgently. Especially in the complex and harsh service environment of nuclear power plants, metal components face serious threats of stress corrosion failure. Stress corrosion cracking is affected by the coupling of the interaction of materials, environment and stress. When metal materials are in a high temperature and high pressure environment, if they are subjected to certain stress, their performance will change, and the mechanism of stress corrosion will be more complicated. In order to ensure the service safety of nuclear power structural materials and understand the service status of components, it is necessary to accurately screen and test the stress corrosion performance of component materials at different service stages.
[0003] In order to detect changes in stress corrosion performance of metal materials, a clamping assembly is set up to apply stress to the metal sample while clamping the metal sample to cause the sample to deform. The clamping assembly and the metal sample are then placed as a whole in a reactor of a stress corrosion screening test device for a stress corrosion screening test.
[0004] The current stress corrosion screening test equipment has at least the following problems: (1) Due to the many factors that affect stress corrosion cracking of components, it is difficult to quantify the stress corrosion of typical components under specific service conditions (such as the prediction of stress corrosion crack propagation). (2) It is difficult to quantify the stress loading and stress adjustment of metal samples in the reactor. (3) There are very few metal samples that can be placed in the reactor at the same time, and generally a large number of long-term test tasks need to be carried out.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to design a stress corrosion screening test fixture and device in a high-temperature and high-pressure water environment, which is suitable for stress corrosion screening tests of metal materials used in nuclear power plants in a high-temperature and high-pressure water environment, and solves the problems of difficult stress corrosion screening tests in a high-temperature and high-pressure water environment and huge volume of repeated long-cycle tests.

The present invention can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and the details in this specification can also be modified or changed in various ways based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
[0035] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in this embodiment are only used to illustrate the basic concept of the present invention in a schematic manner. Therefore, the drawings only show components related to the present invention rather than being drawn according to the number, shape and size of components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the type, quantity and proportion of each component may be changed arbitrarily, and the component layout may also be more complicated.
[0036] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose and other related purposes, the present invention proposes a stress corrosion screening test fixture in a high-temperature and high-pressure water environment, including a biaxial self-balancing unit 1, a mounting unit and a plurality of clamping units 3. The mounting unit includes a top plate 21 and a bottom plate 22, and the top plate 21 and the bottom plate 22 are coaxially connected by a connecting column 23. The biaxial self-balancing unit 1 is located between the top plate 21 and the bottom plate 22, and includes a positioning plate 11 and biaxial connecting components 12 uniformly arranged on the circumference of the positioning plate 11, each biaxial connecting component 12 is rotatably connected to the positioning plate 11, and the connecting column 23 movably penetrates the positioning plate 11. One end of each clamping unit 3 is connected to the biaxial connecting component 12, and the other end is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 22. The clamping unit 3 includes a plurality of sample clamps 31 connected in sequence, and the sample clamps 31 clamp the two ends of the test sample 40. When the positioning plate 11 moves toward the direction of the top plate 21, tensile stress is uniformly applied to each test sample 40.
[0037] It should be noted that a plurality of biaxial connection components 12 are evenly arranged on the circumference of the positioning plate 11 of the above-mentioned test fixture, each biaxial connection component 12 is connected to one end of the clamping unit 3, and the other end of each clamping unit 3 is correspondingly connected to the bottom plate 22. Each clamping unit 3 includes sample clamps 31 connected in sequence, each sample clamp 31 can be used to clamp the two ends of the dumbbell-shaped test sample 40, and the connecting column 23 movably penetrates the positioning plate 11. The connecting column 23 not only plays the role of fixing and connecting the top plate 21 and the bottom plate 22, but also plays a guiding role for the movement of the positioning plate 11. By moving the positioning plate 11 in the axial direction, tensile stress can be uniformly applied to the test sample 40 on each sample clamp 31, and multiple test samples 40 can be clamped at the same time, and the same amount of tensile stress can be applied to the multiple test samples 40. It provides a basis for simultaneously screening and testing the stress corrosion performance of a large number of metal material samples in nuclear power plant engineering tests.
[0038] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, each dual-axis connection assembly 12 includes a first connection seat 121 and a second connection seat 122, the first connection seat 121 and the second connection seat 122 are connected by a first rotating shaft 123, the second connection seat 122 and the positioning plate 11 are connected by a second rotating shaft 124, the first rotating shaft 123 and the second rotating shaft 124 are perpendicular to each other, and are arranged horizontally perpendicular to the axis of the positioning plate 11.
[0039] It should be noted that the positioning plate 11 may be a cross-shaped plate, each extending arm of the cross-shaped plate is provided with an installation cavity, and each installation cavity is provided with a dual-axis connection assembly 12, so that the dual-axis connection assembly 12 is evenly arranged in the circumferential direction of the positioning plate 11.
[0040] See also Figure 7 As shown, specifically, the first connection seat 121 is U-shaped, the second connection seat 122 is located between the openings of the U-shape, and the first rotating shaft 123 passes horizontally through the two side plates of the U-shape to rotatably connect the first connection seat 121 and the second connection seat 122. The second rotating shaft 124 passes horizontally through the second connection seat 122 corresponding to the upper side of the first rotating shaft 123 to rotatably install the second connection seat 122 in the installation cavity of the positioning plate 11, the U-shaped bottom plate of the first connection seat 121 extends out of the installation cavity, and a threaded connecting rod 125 is connected to the U-shaped bottom plate, so that the threaded connecting rod 125 is parallel to the axial direction of the positioning plate 11, and the lower end of the threaded connecting rod 125 is threadedly connected to the upper end of the clamping unit 3.
[0041] It should be noted that the biaxial connection components 12 are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction of the positioning plate 11, and the spacing between each biaxial connection component 12 is the same. Therefore, when the positioning plate 11 moves upward, all the first connection seats 121 will rise synchronously. Since all the first connection seats 121 move upward at the same time, each clamping unit 3 is evenly stressed. The upward movement of the positioning plate 11 causes all the clamping units 3 to be evenly subjected to the same tensile stress. This design achieves uniform distribution of force by ensuring the balance and symmetry of each connection, so that each clamping unit 3 is subjected to the same amount of tensile stress.
[0042] It should be noted that the configuration of the first rotating shaft 123 and the second rotating shaft 124 being perpendicular to each other provides free rotation in two directions, and the first connecting seat 121 and the second connecting seat 122 can also move relatively independently to adapt to different loads and positions. At the same time, when the positioning plate 11 at the upper end moves, any slight imbalance can be compensated by the rotation of the rotating shaft, thereby ensuring that each clamping unit 3 is subjected to uniform tensile stress. Therefore, through the design of the dual-axis connection assembly, combined with the vertical setting of the rotating shaft, it is possible to effectively achieve uniform tensile stress on each clamping unit 3, while having good self-balancing characteristics, and improving the stability and adaptability of the device.
[0043] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it also includes a matching screw rod 51 and a nut 52, one end of the screw rod 51 passes through the positioning plate 11 and the top plate 21, the nut 52 is threadedly connected to the end of the screw rod 51 extending out of the top plate 21, and the screw rod 51 is coaxially arranged with the positioning plate 11. A first positioning block 53 is provided at one end of the screw rod 51, and a second positioning block 54 is provided in the center hole of the positioning plate 11, and the first positioning block 53 is matched and connected with the second positioning block 54.
[0044] It should be noted that the end of the screw rod 51 is fixedly connected to the first positioning block 53, the upper end of the first positioning block 53 is provided with a first positioning groove, the bottom of the first positioning groove protrudes upward, and the lower end of the second positioning block 54 protrudes downward to form a convex block, and the convex block is provided with a second positioning groove. The nut 52 is rotated so that the screw rod 51 drives the first positioning block 53 to move upward, the first positioning groove of the first positioning block 53 and the convex block of the second positioning block 54 cooperate, and the second positioning groove on the convex block cooperates with the convex block of the first positioning groove, which can accurately locate the position of the screw rod 51, so that the screw rod 51 and the center hole of the positioning plate 11 are aligned, and at this time, the nut 52 is continued to be rotated, and the screw rod 51 drives the positioning plate 11 to move in the direction close to the top plate 21, and at this time, tensile stress is evenly applied to each clamping unit 3.
[0045] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, each sample holder 31 includes a sample frame 311, a first connecting plate 312, and a second connecting plate 313 connected to each other. The two ends of the first connecting plate 312 are respectively connected to the first connecting plate 312 and the second connecting plate 313; wherein, the connection between two adjacent sample holders 31 is achieved by connecting the second connecting plate 312 of one sample holder 31 with the sample frame 311 of the other sample holder 31. Each test sample 40 is dumbbell-shaped, and the two ends of the dumbbell are installation connection parts, and the test sample 40, the sample frame 311, the first connecting plate 312, and the second connecting plate 313 are coaxially arranged.
[0046] It should be noted that the sample frame 311 of each sample holder 31 is a rectangular frame, and the first connecting plate 312 and the second connecting plate 313 can both be H-shaped plates. The lower frame of the first connecting plate 312 is gathered toward the middle and overlapped on the web of the second connecting plate 313, and the lower part of the sample frame 311 is arranged in the upper frame of the first connecting plate 312 and fixedly connected. The upper part of each sample frame 311 is arranged in the lower frame of the second connecting plate 313 of the adjacent sample holder 31 and fixedly connected.
[0047] The lower frame of the first connecting plate 312 and the upper frame gap of the second connecting plate 313 are fitted and connected by a pair of bolts, the lower part of the sample frame 311 and the upper frame gap of the first connecting plate 312 are fitted and connected by a pair of bolts, and the upper part of the sample frame 311 and the lower frame gap of the second connecting plate 313 of the adjacent sample clamp 31 are fitted and connected by a pair of bolts. The upper end of the sample frame 311 and the web of the corresponding second connecting plate 313 are respectively clamped to the two ends of the test sample 40 through a clamp ring, and the lower end of the sample frame 311 and the web of the corresponding first connecting plate 312 are respectively clamped to the two ends of another test sample 40 through a clamp ring. Each sample clamp 31 is an axisymmetric structure, and the symmetry axis is parallel to the axial direction of the positioning plate 11.
[0048] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a test sample 40 is provided between the upper end of the sample frame 311 and the corresponding second connecting plate 313, and between the lower end of the sample frame 311 and the corresponding first connecting plate 312, and both ends of each test sample 40 are clamped by a clamp ring. Each clamp ring is a pair of semicircular retaining rings, and mounting holes are provided on both ends of the sample frame 311, the first connecting plate 312, and the second connecting plate 313. The outer diameter of the clamp ring is larger than the aperture of the mounting hole, and the inner diameter of the clamp ring is smaller than the end of the test sample 40.
[0049] It should be noted that the test sample 40 is a dumbbell-shaped structure, and the dimensions of the two ends are larger than the dimensions of the middle section. The two ends are for installation, and the middle section is the test part of the test. The mounting hole can be a stepped hole. When the end of the test sample 40 passes through the stepped hole, a pair of retaining rings are aligned and located in the large hole of the stepped hole to clamp and fix the end of the test sample 40. The retaining ring is a material that is insulated from the metal material, and can be selected from rubber material or fiber reinforced plastic, etc., and its rigidity can meet certain requirements.
[0050] It should be noted that the lower part of the sample frame 311 is fixedly connected to the upper frame of the first connecting plate 312, and the upper part of the sample frame 311 is fixedly connected to the lower frame of the second connecting plate 313 of the adjacent sample clamp 31. Not only the sample clamps 31 of the same clamping unit 3 are connected in sequence, but also when one of the test samples 40 clamped by the same clamping unit 3 fails such as breaking under the action of tensile stress, the clamping unit 3 still maintains the connection state, that is, maintains integrity, does not affect the transmission of force, that is, does not affect the tensile stress test of other non-failed test samples 40, so that the test efficiency is higher.
[0051] It should be noted that each clamping unit 3 includes 6 sample clamps 31, and the upper end of the sample frame 311 close to the top plate 21 and the U-shaped bottom of the second connecting seat 122 of the corresponding biaxial connection assembly 12 are connected by a threaded connecting rod 125. The lower end of the sample clamp 31 close to the bottom plate 22 is also connected to a sample frame 311, and the lower end of the sample frame 311 is connected to the bottom plate 22 by a threaded connecting rod 125. Therefore, in combination with the above-mentioned present invention, it includes 4 biaxial connection assemblies 12, and 4 clamping units 3 are installed respectively. The stress corrosion screening test fixture of the present invention can clamp 48 test specimens at the same time, realizing a large-volume sample test.
[0052] See also Figure 8 As shown, in order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose and other related purposes, the present invention also includes a stress corrosion screening test device, which includes a reactor 10 and the above-mentioned stress corrosion screening test fixture, and the stress corrosion screening test fixture is sealed in the reactor 10. The reactor 10 provides a stress corrosion screening test space environment, and the reactor 10 contains a simulated environmental solution. To ensure that the corrosion test fixture is sealed in the reactor 10, a reactor cover 15 can be set at the upper end of the reactor 10.
[0053] It should be noted that the installation methods of the stress corrosion screening test fixture include but are not limited to the following situations: First, fixed installation is achieved by fixing the bottom plate 22 on the bottom of the reactor 10. Second, it can be fixedly installed on the reactor cover 15 by screws 51. Third, the top plate 21 is fixed to the lower plane of the reactor cover 15 by bolts, the screws 51 pass through the top plate 21 and the center of the reactor cover 15, and the nuts 52 are placed on the upper surface of the reactor cover 15.
[0054] It should be noted that the requirements for nuclear power engineering materials are relatively strict, and generally need to meet the following requirements: Radiation protection requirements, materials must be able to effectively shield and prevent the transmission of radiation (such as neutrons and gamma rays) to ensure the safety of personnel and the environment. Melting point and cracking strength requirements, materials should have a high melting point and cracking resistance to withstand operations under high temperature and high pressure conditions. Long-term stability requirements, materials must maintain the stability of their physical and chemical properties in a long-term radiation environment, and performance degradation must not occur. Fatigue strength requirements, should have good fatigue strength to resist repeated stress and cyclic loading. Chemical stability requirements, materials used in nuclear power plants are often in corrosive media (such as water, acid, alkali, etc.), so the materials must have good corrosion resistance to extend their service life and reduce maintenance costs. Strength and toughness requirements, must have high strength and excellent toughness to withstand mechanical stress and impact under various operating conditions. Thermal expansion coefficient requirements: The thermal expansion coefficient of the material should match that of other components to avoid stress concentration caused by temperature changes. Therefore, a specific test environment needs to be provided to the reactor 10. Only when conducting tests can the required test samples 40 be screened out to meet the performance requirements of nuclear power engineering for materials.
[0055] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the reaction kettle 10 includes a kettle body 110, a gas supply device 120, a pressure control device 130 and a heating furnace 14. The gas supply device 120 introduces a designed proportion of gas into the kettle body 110, the pressure control device 130 is used to adjust the pressure of the kettle body 110, and the heating furnace 14 is used to heat the kettle body 110 and the solution therein.
[0056] It should be noted that the gas supply device 120 includes a gas supply pipe 1201 and a gas cylinder 1202. The gas supply pipe 1201 may be provided with a regulating valve. The gas cylinder 1202 contains a mixed gas of oxygen and inert gas in a designed proportion. The gas cylinder 1202 passes the mixed gas into the solution in the reactor 10 through the gas supply pipe 1201. The mixed gas provided can not only maintain the oxygen concentration of the solution, but also promote the progress of the gas-liquid reaction, and enhance the reaction rate and efficiency, especially when it involves redox reactions or other chemical reactions that require the participation of oxygen. The regulating valve can adjust the flow rate of the gas supply and, combined with the proportion of the mixed gas, can achieve detailed control of the reaction environment, thereby optimizing the reaction conditions.
[0057] It should be noted that the pressure control device 130 includes a gas valve interface 131 and a safety valve interface 132, which are used to adjust the gas pressure in the kettle 110. When gas (such as gas products or thermal decomposition gas) is generated during the reaction process and causes the pressure to rise, the vent valve interface 131 can be used to discharge excess gas, thereby maintaining a safe pressure in the kettle 110. The safety valve interface 132 is a safety mechanism. When the internal pressure of the kettle 110 exceeds the set threshold, the safety valve interface 132 can be automatically opened to release excess gas into the external environment to prevent dangerous conditions such as explosion or leakage of the kettle 110. At the same time, when it is necessary to maintain a fixed atmosphere or a specific component ratio, the pressure control device 130 can ensure the proper exchange between the gas in the kettle 110 and the external gas, thereby maintaining the stability of the reaction environment.
[0058] It should be noted that a thermometer 111 and a pressure gauge 112 are disposed on the kettle body 110 to facilitate observation of the temperature and pressure in the kettle body 110 .
[0059] In summary, the stress corrosion screening test fixture and device in a high temperature and high pressure water environment of the present invention at least include the following technical effects:

Each clamping unit 3 comprises sample clamps 31 connected in sequence, each sample clamp 31 can be used to clamp the two ends of a dumbbell-shaped test sample 40, and the positioning plate 11 is moved in the axial direction to uniformly apply tensile stress to the test sample 40 on each sample clamp 31, and multiple test samples 40 can be clamped at the same time, and the same amount of tensile stress can be applied to the multiple test samples 40. The biaxial connection assembly 12 has good self-balancing characteristics, which improves the stability and adaptability of the device and provides a basis for simultaneously screening and testing the stress corrosion performance of a large number of metal material samples in nuclear power plant engineering tests.
[0061] (2) The present invention proposes a stress corrosion screening test fixture under high temperature and high pressure water environment, wherein two adjacent sample clamps 31 are connected by connecting the second connecting plate 312 of one sample clamp 31 with the sample frame 311 of the other sample clamp 31. Specifically, the lower part of the sample frame 311 is fixedly connected to the upper frame of the first connecting plate 312, and the upper part of the sample frame 311 is fixedly connected to the lower frame of the second connecting plate 313 of the adjacent sample clamp 31. The sample clamps 31 of the same clamping unit 3 are connected in sequence, and when one of the test samples 40 clamped by the same clamping unit 3 fails such as fracture under the action of tensile stress, the clamping unit 3 still maintains the connection state, i.e., maintains integrity, does not affect the transmission of force, i.e., does not affect the tensile stress test of other non-failed test samples 40. At the same time, the failure of all test samples 40 is observed, and the failure time and failure degree of different test samples 40 are compared, which not only improves the test efficiency but also makes the test more accurate and intuitive.
[0062] (3) The stress corrosion screening test device in a high-temperature and high-pressure water environment of the present invention can provide a high-temperature and high-pressure water environment for the service of nuclear power metal parts, and accurately control the oxygen content and the internal pressure value of the test sample 40 to carry out stress corrosion detection and screening of metal samples in a simulated environment. In particular, the present invention can realize the detection and screening of the high-temperature and high-pressure stress corrosion performance of 48 samples in a sequential sample process, and can solve the problems of difficulty, long cycle, and many repeated tests in stress corrosion screening of large quantities of samples in a high-temperature and high-pressure water environment, thereby solving the problem of difficulty in the application of stress corrosion screening and evaluation engineering, and is extremely valuable in ensuring the safe service of metal materials of key nuclear power equipment.
