Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of thermal engineering experiments, and particularly relates to a multi-functional integrated experimental platform and experimental method for a new working fluid Brayton cycle system. Background Art
[0002] Remote islands are severely lacking in electric energy due to their remoteness from the mainland and lack of infrastructure, which seriously restricts the development and construction of the islands. The gas-cooled reactor combined with the direct Brayton cycle energy conversion method has the advantages of simple system, easy construction, small volume and mass, and high power generation efficiency. In addition, the hot side temperature of the cooler in the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor Brayton cycle system is relatively high, and its waste heat has the possibility of being reused as a heat supply source for indoor heating of the whole island. For gas-cooled reactors, helium is usually used as the circulating working fluid for the direct Brayton cycle. However, relevant research shows that the use of new working fluids such as supercritical carbon dioxide, helium, and nitrogen can significantly reduce the size of the reactor system and lower the construction cost and difficulty of island nuclear power plants. Therefore, the new working fluid Brayton cycle reactor system has broad application prospects in power / electricity / heat supply in island scenarios.
[0003] In recent years, China has also accelerated the relevant R & D process, and relevant universities, research institutions and industrial departments in the country have jointly carried out valuable demonstration and research work. The relevant research in China is in its infancy and faces the lack of experimental means for the new working fluid Brayton cycle system with high precision, multi-function and scientific rationality. In addition, for problems such as the unclear transient characteristics of the new working fluid Brayton cycle system during startup / shutdown / power change, the unclear transient safety characteristics under various typical accident conditions, the lack of reliable startup / shutdown / accident safety control strategies, and the unclear thermal safety characteristics of the composite control strategy, there is an urgent need to build a multi-functional integrated experimental platform for the new working fluid Brayton cycle system.

In the present invention, the first electric heater 1 serves as the heat source of the Brayton cycle main loop system to heat the working fluid to a high temperature. The high-temperature working fluid reduces its pressure and temperature through the temperature and pressure reducing device 13. Further, the working fluid is pre-cooled through the hot side of the regenerator 4, and then the working fluid flows through the hot side of the cooler 6 and is cooled again. After the working fluid comes out of the hot side of the cooler 6, it enters the new working fluid gas compressor 8 and is compressed and cooled simultaneously. Then the working fluid is heated in the second electric heater 2, and the heating power is the same as the power by which the working fluid is cooled in the new working fluid gas compressor 8, so as to achieve temperature rise compensation.

The chiller 7 has two fans, which drive the air to cool the deionized water in the water tank, so as to provide constant low-temperature deionized water. The deionized water is driven by a built-in water pump of the chiller 7.
