Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of nuclear main pump testing, and particularly relates to a shielded nuclear main pump flow and rotor dynamics characteristic whole machine cooperative verification experiment platform. BACKGROUND

[0002] The nuclear reactor coolant main circulation pump, referred to as a nuclear main pump, is one of the key equipment of a pressurized water reactor nuclear power plant, and is located between a reactor and a steam generator in a primary loop of the nuclear power plant. In the normal operation process of the nuclear reactor, the nuclear main pump drives the circulation of the coolant in the primary loop of the nuclear power plant, thereby realizing heat transfer. As the only rotating equipment in the primary loop system, the reliability of the nuclear main pump is directly related to the safety of the nuclear power plant.

[0003] For the shaft seal type nuclear main pump, the primary loop cooling medium is sealed in the pump head, so that the design of the hydraulic components is mainly concentrated on the impeller which has a relatively mature theoretical basis, and the complex rotor dynamics design is avoided. For the shielded nuclear main pump, the primary loop cooling medium is introduced into the shielded motor through pressure boundary conversion, so that the non-complete pressure boundary becomes a complete pressure boundary, the sealing of the primary loop is improved, and the leakage of the radioactive medium is effectively prevented. However, this structure causes the cooling medium flowing in the pump head to enter the shielded motor, which brings the shielded motor gap flow problem, so that the design of the hydraulic components of the shielded nuclear main pump needs to not only pay attention to the impeller, but also pay attention to the rotor dynamics problem of the shielded motor.

[0004] The complex dynamics behavior between the whole machine flow of the shielded nuclear main pump and the rotor has an important role in the stability and safety of the rotor system. At present, the experimental research on the nuclear main pump is mainly concentrated on the design, manufacture and optimization of the hydraulic components, and the research on the whole machine flow characteristics and the rotor dynamics characteristics is relatively less, and there is almost no research on the influence of the coupling effect of the pump head flow field and the shielded motor gap on the rotor system.

For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0038] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The shielding nuclear main pump flow and rotor dynamics characteristic integrated cooperative verification experiment platform of the present application comprises a pump body, a rotating shaft 8, a stator shell 7, a power unit, a lubrication system and a measurement unit;

[0039] The pump body comprises a pump shell 1, an impeller 2 and a guide vane 3, the impeller 2 is connected with one end of the rotating shaft 8, the impeller 2, the pump shell 1 and the guide vane 3 form a pump head, and the pump head is installed above a flywheel chamber 19; an upper flywheel 4 is assembled with the rotating shaft 8 and placed in the flywheel chamber 19; a lower flywheel 11 is assembled with the rotating shaft 8 and abuts against a thrust bearing 12;

[0040] The rotating shaft 8 is installed on the support through the upper support seat and the lower support seat at both ends, specifically, the upper guide bearing 5 is assembled on the upper bearing support frame 21, the lower guide bearing 10 and the thrust bearing 12 are assembled on the lower bearing support frame 25, the axial support and the radial support of the shaft are realized, and the bearing lubricating medium is water; the motor 16 is installed below the motor support frame 28, the other end of the rotating shaft 8 is connected with the motor 16; the stator shell 7 is arranged between the upper support seat and the lower support seat, the rotating shaft 8 passes through the stator shell 7, and there is a gap between the rotating shaft 8 and the stator shell 7; the lubricating medium in the lubricating system passes through the inside of the lower support seat, the gap and the inside of the upper support seat, and a closed loop system is formed.

[0041] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the measuring unit includes the pressure sensor group 22 and the torque and speed sensor 14 for measuring the torque and speed of the rotating shaft 8; the torque and speed sensor 14 is installed on the torque meter support frame 27, and the upper end is connected with the rotating shaft 8 through the upper coupling 13; the motor 16 is connected with the lower end of the torque and speed sensor 14 through the lower coupling 15. The upper coupling 13 and the lower coupling 15 select the elastic coupling (such as the plum blossom coupling) which has relatively small interference to the movement of the rotating shaft 8, can compensate the relative displacement of the two shafts, and can absorb vibration and moderate impact. A plurality of pressure sensor groups 22 are arranged on the stator shell 7 in the axial direction, for measuring the pressure distribution of the gap flow field. The number of sensors of the pressure sensor group 22 is 3-5, too few sensors cannot obtain sufficient pressure field resolution, and too many sensors will destroy the flow structure of the gap flow field.

[0043] The pump shell 1 and the stator shell 7 are both structures of outer square and inner circle, and the material is organic glass, so that optical distortion does not occur during flow visualization measurement.

[0044] The stator shell 7 can obtain different gap flow structures by replacing different inner wall structures, so as to study the influence of different gap flow structures on the dynamic characteristics of the rotating shaft 8. The diameter ratio η of the stator shell 7 is 0.01-0.02, wherein η=d i / d0, d iThe gap corresponds to the shaft section of the shaft diameter, d0 is the inner diameter of the stator shell; the length-diameter ratio of the stator shell 7 is 3-5, where G=L / d, L is the length of the stator shell 7; d is the width of the gap. If the stator shell 7 and the rotating shaft 8 are eccentric, then d takes the minimum value, that is, the minimum width between the stator shell 7 and the rotating shaft 8, as shown in Figure 5 .

The upper eddy current displacement sensor group 6 and the lower eddy current displacement sensor group 9 are both in a group of two sensors, and the two sensors in the same group are arranged perpendicular to each other, so as to obtain the shaft center displacement trajectory of the rotating shaft 8.

[0046] As shown in Figure 6 , the experimental method of the experimental platform includes the following steps:

[0051] Collect the flow field pressure data P1 of the pump head pressure sensor group and the displacement data D1 of the upper and lower eddy current displacement sensor groups under working condition I;

[0052] Perform mutual verification analysis of the pump head flow field pressure data P1 and the shaft displacement data D1 under working condition I, and the consistency judgment index I DP of the two is calculated as follows:

[0053] I DP = αR + (1-α)(1-RMSE DP / RMSE max )

[0054] Wherein, a is a weight factor, 0.5≤a≤0.7; p is a difference sequence correlation coefficient; RMSE DP is a difference sequence root mean square error; RMSE max is a maximum value of the difference sequence root mean square error;

[0055] If the consistency judgment index I DP ≤0.9, it is considered that the data is effective to a certain extent, otherwise the installation accuracy of each sensor needs to be adjusted;
