[0002] The control rod screws in nuclear power plants are in an underwater operating environment for a long time, and their surfaces are prone to adsorb iron oxide particles, boric acid crystals, and radioactive dust. The accumulation of these contaminants will increase the friction coefficient of the screws by 30%-50%, leading to control rod jamming accidents.

Experiments show that the residual magnetism will increase the adsorption force of contaminants by 2-3 times, resulting in an increase in the re-adsorption rate of contaminants after cleaning, and the screw needs to be cleaned and maintained frequently. In addition, high-frequency oscillation demagnetization is likely to damage the screw, traditional manual cleaning requires the shutdown of more than 8 hours, and there is a risk of radiation exposure.

[0047] The technical solution of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments.
[0048] This embodiment provides a nuclear power plant control rod screw ultra-low frequency oscillation demagnetization and self-cleaning device. Referring to Figure 1 - 3 , its structure includes a cavity 10, which is formed by connecting multiple sections of octagonal pipes, and is provided with a full-through side door to facilitate the assembly and maintenance of the internal equipment of the cavity. A cylinder is hinged between the side door and the outer wall of the cavity to drive the opening and closing of the side door. The inner wall of the cavity 10 is provided with a high-temperature electromagnetic shielding layer and a guide rail 11 arranged along the length direction. An elevator frame 12 is slidably installed on the guide rail 11, and the elevator frame 12 is driven to move up and down by a driving mechanism 40. An ultra-low frequency oscillation demagnetization device 30 with a hollow structure, an ultrasonic cleaning device 50, and a high-pressure flushing device 70 are sequentially installed on the elevator frame 12 from top to bottom. Among them, the magnetic force detection device 60 includes an annular Hall sensor array for real-time detection of the residual magnetic intensity on the surface of the screw. The magnetic force detection device 60 is installed on the inner wall of the shaft hole of the ultra-low frequency oscillation demagnetization device 30; the high-pressure flushing device 70 is provided with four high-pressure nozzles surrounding the outer surface of the screw 20, and is supplied with water by a high-pressure pump to flush the attached dirt on the surface of the screw. The dirt recovery system 80 includes a conical collection bin 81 arranged at the bottom of the cavity 10, with an inclination angle ≥ 45°, and a deep water pump 82 is connected to the bottom for adsorbing the peeled dirt; a filter screen (not labeled in the figure) is provided on the inner wall of the cavity, with a mesh diameter of 0.5 - 1 mm, for preventing the dirt from overflowing from the cavity to the external water body.
[0049] During operation, the screw 20 is hoisted into the cavity from the top, sequentially passes through the central holes of the above-mentioned devices, and is coaxially clamped at the axis of the cavity by two central limit sleeves above and below in the cavity.
[0050] Preferably, for the nuclear power plant control rod screw ultra-low frequency oscillation demagnetization and self-cleaning device of this embodiment, referring to Figure 4, the drive mechanism 40 includes a driving gear set 42 and a driven gear set 43 which are respectively arranged on both sides of the top of the cavity 10 and have the same transmission coefficient. A transmission shaft 41 is arranged between the driving gear set 42 and the driven gear set 43 for synchronous operation of the two sprocket transmission mechanisms. The power input shaft of the driving gear set 42 is drivingly connected to an external rotary driving device through a pair of helical gear sets. During operation, a motor arranged above the water body is connected to the driving gear of the helical gear set through a transmission shaft, thereby driving the driving gear set 42 to act. A driving sprocket of the same size specification is respectively connected to the power output shafts of the driving gear set 42 and the driven gear set 43. A driven sprocket of the same size specification as the driving sprocket is respectively rotatably arranged on both sides of the bottom of the inner cavity of the cavity 10. The driving sprocket and the driven sprocket on the same side are driven by a chain, and the two chains move at the same speed and are respectively fixedly connected to both sides of the lifting frame 12 to drive the lifting frame 12 to move up and down smoothly.
[0051] Preferably, for the nuclear power plant control rod screw ultra-low frequency oscillation demagnetization and self-cleaning device of this embodiment, the ultra-low frequency oscillation demagnetization device 30 includes an axial oscillation module and a gradient demagnetization coil 31. The axial oscillation module generates an axial mechanical oscillation of 0.1 - 1 Hz and 5 - 50 μm. This low-frequency oscillation assists in dirt stripping through two mechanisms:
[0052] Inertia effect: The inertial shear force is generated between the dirt particles and the screw surface due to the acceleration difference, weakening the adhesion force;
[0053] Fatigue failure: The periodic stress loading causes microcracks to occur at the interface between the dirt and the matrix, and finally fracture.
[0054] The outer layer of the gradient demagnetization coil 31 is coated with a μ-metal high magnetic permeability shielding layer, and the magnetic field leakage intensity < 1 gauss. The gradient demagnetization coil 31 is passed through with an ultra-low frequency alternating current of 0.05 - 0.5 Hz to generate an alternating magnetic field that decays exponentially along the axial direction of the screw, and the attenuation coefficient is 0.1 - 0.5 / mm; the axial oscillation module and the gradient demagnetization coil 31 are driven by a piezoelectric ceramic stack driver, and the piezoelectric ceramic stack driver is encapsulated in a silicon nitride ceramic shell, with a tolerance temperature > 300 °C and a radiation dose > 10^6 Gy.
[0055] Preferably, for the nuclear power plant control rod screw ultra-low frequency oscillation demagnetization and self-cleaning device of this embodiment, the alternating magnetic field attenuation coefficient and the mechanical oscillation amplitude satisfy the following relationship: ;
[0056] wherein, A is the amplitude in μm, α is the attenuation coefficient in / mm, L is the screw length in m, and k is a proportionality constant with 10 ≤ k ≤ 50.
[0057] Preferably, for the ultra-low frequency oscillation demagnetization and self-cleaning device of the control rod screw of the nuclear power plant in this embodiment, the driving mechanism 40 is signal-linked with the control rod drive system of the nuclear power plant and is built-in with an adaptive control module for:
[0058] a. Adjust the lifting stroke of the demagnetization device 30 and the cleaning device 50 according to the screw length;
[0059] Specifically, the adaptive control module generates a lifting command according to the stroke = L + ΔL (L is the screw length, preset by the system, and ΔL is the safety redundancy, set to 0.2 m), and drives the sprocket transmission system to drive the lifting frame 12 to move along the guide rail 11 to ensure that the demagnetization coil 31, the magnetic force detection device 60, and the ultrasonic transducer cover the entire length of the screw.
[0060] b. Based on the real-time data detected by the Hall sensor of the magnetic force detection device 60, dynamically adjust the ratio (R = fm:fv) of the alternating current frequency (fm) to the mechanical oscillation frequency (fv) so that it always remains within the range of 1:1 to 1:5, referring to Figure 5 .
[0061] When the remanent magnetic intensity > 10 Gauss, it is marked as the "high remanent magnetic region", and the alternating current frequency is increased to and the oscillation amplitude is increased;
[0062] When the remanent magnetic intensity ≤ 10 Gauss, start the operation of the ultrasonic cleaning device 50.
[0063] Among them, referring to Figure 6 , the realization of dynamic frequency matching adopts the fuzzy PID control algorithm, combining proportional-integral-derivative regulation and fuzzy logic to achieve the balance between fast response and stability.
[0064] Step 1: Set the target ratio Rtarget
[0065] If Bavg > 10 Gauss → Rtarget = 1:1;
[0066] If Bavg ≤ 10 Gauss → Rtarget = 1:5.
[0067] Step 2: Calculate the current ratio Rcurrent
[0068] ;
[0069] Step 3: Adjust the frequency parameters
[0070] If Rcurrent > Rtarget → decrease fm or increase fv;
[0071] If Rcurrent < Rtarget → increase fm or decrease fv.
[0072] Parameter adjustment rules:
[0073] Proportional term P: Linearly adjust the frequency according to the difference ΔR = Rtarget - Rcurrent;
[0074] Integral term I: Accumulate historical differences to eliminate steady-state errors;
[0075] Derivative term D: Predict the change trend to prevent overshoot.
[0076] This design is based on the following principle: the synergistic effect of magnetic field and mechanical energy. The alternating magnetic field is responsible for eliminating residual magnetism, and mechanical vibration destroys the attachment of dirt. The reasonable matching of the two frequencies can avoid energy conflict and improve the demagnetization efficiency.
[0077] Preferably, for the ultra-low frequency oscillation demagnetization and self-cleaning device of the control rod screw in the nuclear power plant of this embodiment, the ultrasonic cleaning device 50 includes a plurality of piezoelectric transducers distributed along the axial direction of the screw, with a working frequency of 20 - 40 kHz, and maintains a fixed phase difference of ±90° with the axial mechanical vibration module, and cooperatively peels off dirt through shear force.
[0078] Specifically, when the phase difference is +90°: the peak value of the ultrasonic shear force leads the peak value of the mechanical displacement by 1 / 4 cycle; when the phase difference is -90°: the peak value of the ultrasonic shear force lags behind the peak value of the mechanical displacement by 1 / 4 cycle.
[0079] This device adopts a phase difference of ±90°, so that the action times of the two forces are staggered, avoiding the mutual cancellation of energy, and at the same time forming an alternating impact.
[0080] Taking the mechanical vibration frequency of 0.5 Hz, the period T = 2 s, and the ultrasonic frequency of 30 kHz as an example:
[0081] At the stage of the peak value of mechanical displacement (t = 0.5 s): the screw displacement reaches +50 μm, and at this time the ultrasonic signal is at the wave trough (the shear force is the smallest); the inertial force of mechanical vibration "pushes" the dirt away from the substrate surface, but it is not completely peeled off.
[0082] At the stage of the mechanical displacement returning to zero (t = 1.0 s): the ultrasonic shear force reaches the peak value (about 500 N / cm²), and the cavitation bubbles collapse in the gap between the dirt and the substrate, generating a local high-pressure impact; at this time, the dirt has been loosened due to mechanical vibration, and the ultrasonic impact force directly acts on the bottom of the dirt to complete the peeling.
[0083] Experiments show that the synergistic effect of the phase difference can increase the effective energy acting on the dirt per unit time by more than 40%. For example: when there is no phase difference: the ultrasonic wave and mechanical vibration reach the peak value at the same time, and part of the energy cancels each other out, and the dirt peeling efficiency is only 65%; when the phase difference is ±90°: the energy utilization rate is maximized, and the dirt peeling efficiency is increased to 95%.
[0084] Specific Embodiments of Phase Difference Synergy
[0085] 1. Realization and Control of Phase Difference
[0086] Configure hardware:
[0087] Signal generator: Use a high-precision digital signal generator to output two synchronous signals:
[0088] Channel 1: 0.1 - 1 Hz sine wave to drive the mechanical oscillation module;
[0089] Channel 2: 20 - 40 kHz square wave (converted to a sine wave after filtering) to drive the ultrasonic transducer.
[0090] Phase-locked circuit: Through phase-locked loop (PLL) technology, ensure that the phase difference between the two signals is stable within ±90°, with an error < 1°.
[0091] The adaptive control module dynamically adjusts the direction of the phase difference so that different types of dirt can be effectively peeled off.
[0092] When a -90° phase difference is adopted, it preferentially uses mechanical oscillation to break the interface bond, and the peeling effect of hard dirt (such as iron oxide particles) is good; when a +90° phase difference is adopted, it preferentially exerts the ultrasonic cavitation effect, and the peeling effect of soft dirt (such as boric acid crystals) is good.
[0093] 2. Quantitative Analysis of Shearing Force and Displacement
[0094] (1) Shearing Force Calculation Model
[0095] The shearing force (Fs) generated by ultrasonic waves can be approximately expressed as: ;
[0096] Where:
[0097] ρ: Liquid density (1000 kg / m³ for water);
[0098] c: Sound velocity (1500 m / s for water);
[0099] υ: Sound particle vibration velocity ;
[0100] A: Acting area.
[0101] Taking ultrasonic waves at 30 kHz and an amplitude of 5 μm as an example:
[0102] ;
[0103] ;
[0104] (Note: F SThe actual value can be amplified by cavitation effect to more than 500 N / cm²
[0105] (2)Stress contribution of mechanical oscillation
[0106] The inertial force (Fm) generated by mechanical oscillation is:
[0107] Where:
[0108] m: Mass of the dirt (assumed to be 1 g);
[0109] f: Oscillation frequency of 0.5 Hz;
[0110] A: Amplitude of 50 μm.
[0111]
[0112] Although Fm is small, its periodic action can significantly reduce the adhesion of dirt.
[0113] 3. Experimental verification of the synergistic effect
[0114] (1)Design of comparative experiment
[0115] Control group: Only ultrasonic cleaning (30 kHz) is used, without mechanical oscillation;
[0116] Experimental group: Synergy of ultrasonic cleaning (30 kHz) and mechanical oscillation (0.5 Hz, 50 μm), with a phase difference of ±90°.
[0117] (2)The experimental results are shown in Table 1
[0118] Dirt type Removal rate of the control group Removal rate of the experimental group Efficiency improvement Iron oxide particles (100μm) 68% 95% 39.7% Boric acid crystals (lamellar) 52% 89% 71.2% Radioactive dust (sticky) 45% 82% 82.2%
[0119] Table 1: Comparison of removal rate effects of different dirt
[0120] (3)Analysis of the action mechanism
[0121] Iron oxide particles: Mechanical oscillation preferentially destroys the mechanical interlocking between the particles and the matrix, and ultrasonic shear force removes the residual debris;
[0122] Boric acid crystals: Ultrasonic cavitation effect penetrates into the crystal layers, and mechanical oscillation accelerates the interlayer peeling;
[0123] Radioactive dust: The synergistic effect of the phase difference overcomes the van der Waals force and prevents the dust from reabsorbing.
[0124] It should be noted that refer to Figure 7, the device also includes a ground receiving and control unit and a wireless transmission unit. The wireless transmission unit transmits the data of the underwater device to the ground in real time, supports manual remote adjustment of parameters (such as forced switching between demagnetization / washing modes), and forms a "detection - decision - execution - re - detection" closed loop based on the feedback data of the magnetic force detection device 60.
[0125] The working principle and operation process of the device will be further described below with specific data.
[0126] Example 1: Structure and basic operation process of the device.
[0127] Step 1: Device assembly and screw clamping
[0128] Installation of cavity 10: The cavity is composed of multiple sections of octagonal pipes spliced together, and the inner wall is sprayed with a high - temperature electromagnetic shielding layer (the material is silicon carbide composite material, with a temperature resistance of ≥500°C). The ultra - low - frequency oscillation demagnetization device 30, magnetic force detection device 60, ultrasonic cleaning device 50, and high - pressure flushing device 70 are installed on the lifting frame 12 in sequence. The lifting frame 12 is installed on the guide rail 11 and is controlled by the driving mechanism 40 to lift.
[0129] The control rod screw 20 (taking the length L = 6m and diameter φ = 80mm as an example) is hoisted into the cavity from the top through a hoisting device and is coaxially fixed by upper and lower limit sleeves.
[0130] Step 2: Demagnetization stage
[0131] Generation of ultra - low - frequency alternating magnetic field:
[0132] The annular demagnetization coil 31 is passed through with an alternating current of 0.1Hz to generate an alternating magnetic field with an initial magnetic field intensity of 200 gauss, which decays exponentially along the axial direction of the screw (α = 0.3 / mm).
[0133] The axial oscillation module drives the axial displacement of the screw at a frequency of 0.5Hz (amplitude A = 30μm). The mechanical oscillation and the magnetic field attenuation coefficient satisfy the formula: ;
[0134] where k = 20, L is 6m, and after calculation, α = 0.3 / mm.
[0135] Adaptive adjustment:
[0136] The initial detected remanence intensity is 20 gauss, belonging to a high - remanence screw (Bavg = 20 gauss).
[0137] Initial parameter setting: fm = 0.1Hz, fv = 0.2Hz (R = 1:2);
[0138] Detection and determination: Bavg = 20 gauss → trigger the R = 1:1 mode;
[0139] Adjustment process:
[0140] Gradually increase fm to 0.5Hz (hardware upper limit), and simultaneously increase fv to 0.5Hz;
[0141] The demagnetization rate is increased from 2 gauss / minute to 5 gauss / minute;
[0142] Result: After 15 minutes, Bavg ≤ 10 Gauss, switching to R = 1:5 mode (fm = 0.1 Hz, fv = 0.5 Hz), and triggering the cleaning phase.
[0143] Step 3: Cleaning Phase
[0144] Ultrasonic collaborative cleaning:
[0145] The ultrasonic transducer operates at a frequency of 35kHz and maintains a -90° phase difference with the mechanical oscillation module.
[0146] The mechanical oscillation frequency was set to 0.8 Hz, with an amplitude of 40 μm, alternating with the ultrasonic shear force peak. The experiment showed that after 30 minutes, the dirt removal rate was 98.5%; the surface roughness dropped from Ra 3.2 μm to Ra 0.8 μm.
[0147] High-pressure washing and dirt collection:
[0148] The high-pressure flushing device 70 sprays water at a pressure of 60 MPa, and the flushed and stripped dirt is intercepted into the cavity through a 200-mesh filter screen, and is discharged from the conical collection bin 81 at the bottom to an externally connected waste collection device through its own gravity sedimentation and adsorption by a deep water pump 82.
[0149] Step 4: Effect Verification
[0150] Residual magnetism elimination: The residual magnetism intensity on the screw surface is ≤ 2 Gauss (far below the 10 Gauss threshold).
[0151] Cleaning efficiency: Dirt removal rate ≥ 95%, reabsorption rate < 5% (reabsorption rate of traditional technology > 30%).
[0152] Time cost: The whole process takes 45 minutes.
[0153] Example 2: Different from Example 1, after the demagnetization stage of step 2 is completed, the initial detected residual magnetism intensity is 8 Gauss, which belongs to a low residual magnetism screw (Bavg=8 Gauss).
[0154] Initial parameter settings: fm=0.05Hz, fv=0.25Hz (R=1:5);
[0155] Energy saving effect: energy consumption is reduced by 40% compared with R=1:1 mode, and the demagnetization rate remains at 1 gauss / minute;

[0159] Table 2: Verification of the effects of the dynamic frequency matching mode and the fixed frequency mode
[0160] Refer to Figure 5 , while ensuring the demagnetization efficiency, the dynamic frequency matching mode reduces the energy consumption by 30% - 50%, and avoids mechanical overload through adaptive adjustment, prolonging the service life of the equipment.
[0161] Example 3: Different from Example 1 and Example 2, in this example, during the demagnetization stage, the ultra-low frequency oscillation demagnetization device is driven by the driving mechanism to demagnetize the entire length of the screw in the R = 1:1 mode (or other modes, manually set according to the screw maintenance period and operating environment), (the coil moves 6 - 12 meters per minute from the bottom up, demagnetizing while moving). After the demagnetization is completed, then the magnetic force detection device detects the residual magnetism, and the coil moves downwards (0.5 m / s) to measure whether the residual magnetism is qualified. If it is qualified, the operation is completed. If it is not qualified, repeat the above demagnetization operation process and then measure the residual magnetism until the residual magnetism reaches the set threshold. The operation process of this example is simple and fast, with high stability, and has low requirements for the control ability of the device, and is suitable for complex operating environments.

The technical scope of this application is not limited to the content in the specification, and its technical scope must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
