Background Art
[0002] Core internals are critical equipment in nuclear power plant reactors. Installed within the reactor pressure vessel, they support the fuel assemblies and provide positioning and guidance for the control rod drive mechanisms. During nuclear power plant operation, the flow-induced vibration characteristics of core internals subjected to reactor coolant impact are crucial. For prototype core internals, core internals flow-induced vibration testing is typically conducted during the plant's hot functional testing to measure the flow-induced vibration characteristics of key components.
[0003] It is usually necessary to measure the pressure pulsation at the outlet of the hanging basket of the in-core component. The pressure pulsation sensor needs to be installed on the guide cylinder assembly at the outlet. The pressure pulsation sensor needs to be reliably fixed by bolts, and the bolt fixing plate usually needs to be welded to the wall of the guide cylinder.
[0004] The guide tube is an important component of the reactor drive line. Its manufacturing and installation precision are very high. There is a risk of welding deformation when welding bolt fixing plates on its outer wall, which will affect the centering accuracy of the drive line.
[0005] In order to avoid the risk of deformation caused by welding of the guide tube, it is necessary to install a guide tube simulation part on the in-pile component during the hot test of the flow-induced vibration test of the in-pile component to replace the formal guide tube to simulate the stiffness, mass and fixing method of the formal guide tube. The guide tube simulation part is also used for the installation of the pressure pulsation sensor to meet the requirements of the flow-induced vibration test of the in-pile component.

[0055] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0056] Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Whenever possible, the same reference numerals will be used throughout the drawings to represent the same or similar parts. Furthermore, while the terminology used in the present invention is selected from commonly known and commonly used terms, some of the terms mentioned in this specification may have been selected at the applicant's discretion, with their detailed meanings explained in the relevant sections of the description herein. Furthermore, it is required that the present invention be understood not only by the actual terms used, but also by the meaning implied by each term. Also, for ease of description, the dimensions of the various parts shown in the drawings are not drawn to scale.
[0057] The present invention provides a method for designing a guide cylinder simulation component for a flow-induced vibration test of an internal component. The guide cylinder simulation component is used to install a pressure pulsation sensor 710 in the flow-induced vibration test of the internal component. The guide cylinder simulation component design method includes the following steps:
[0058] Step S1, designing the guide cylinder body 100 of the guide cylinder simulation component;
[0059] Step S2: Designing the mass block 200 inside the guide cylinder simulation component and the layout position of the mass block 200;
[0060] Step S3, calculating the stiffness of the guide cylinder simulation component to determine whether the modal frequency of the guide cylinder simulation component meets the requirements;
[0061] Step S4: perform a hydraulic flow field analysis on the reactor upper chamber after the guide cylinder simulation is installed to determine whether the pressure distribution at the guide cylinder simulation position and the pressure distribution at the position after the guide cylinder product is installed meet the requirements.
[0062] It should be noted that during the flow-induced vibration test of the in-pile components, it is usually necessary to measure the pressure pulsation at the outlet position of the in-pile component basket. The pressure pulsation sensor 710 needs to be installed on the guide cylinder assembly at the outlet position. The pressure pulsation sensor 710 needs to be reliably fixed by bolts, and the bolt fixing plate usually needs to be welded to the wall of the guide cylinder.
[0063] The guide tube is a critical component of the reactor drive line, requiring high precision in manufacturing and installation. Welding the bolted fixing plate to its outer wall carries the risk of deformation, which can affect the alignment accuracy of the drive line. To avoid this risk of guide tube deformation, a guide tube dummy can be used instead of the actual guide tube during flow-induced vibration testing to install the sensor.
[0064] Since the guide cylinder does not need to perform the function of driving the line during the hot test, the guide cylinder simulation can simplify its guide-related structure and only need to simulate the stiffness, mass and fixing method of the formal guide cylinder. Figure 5a FIG. 1 shows the design structure of the mass block 200 in the first embodiment of the guide cylinder simulation design method of the present invention. Figure 5b The guide plate structure of the guide tube production component is shown. The guide tube dummy clearly simplifies the guide plate structure. Threaded holes can be directly provided on the guide tube dummy for mounting the pressure pulsation sensor 710. After the flow-induced vibration test of the reactor internals and before the reactor is officially operational, the dummy can be removed and replaced with the production guide tube.
[0065] Preferably, the mass block 200 is disposed inside the guide cylinder simulation component and fixed to the guide cylinder shell by welding.
[0066] It should be noted that in the flow-induced vibration test of the in-pile components, the measuring point of the pressure pulsation sensor 710 is preferably close to the outer wall of the guide tube. The pressure pulsation sensor 710 is generally installed at the position where the coolant flow rate is the largest, which is usually on the guide plate at the center height of the basket outlet pipe, that is, close to the second or third layer of guide plates.
[0067] like Figure 6 As shown, I is the pressure vessel inlet (i.e., the reactor coolant inlet), O is the pressure vessel outlet (i.e., the reactor coolant outlet), and P is an optional installation position of the guide cylinder simulation part for the flow-induced vibration test of the in-core component of the present invention, which is close to the pressure vessel outlet O.
[0068] like Figure 8 As shown, the flow rate is the largest at the pressure vessel outlet O, and the flow-induced vibration of the internal components is the most severe, so the pressure pulsation sensor 710 is usually set at this position.
[0069] The design of the guide tube simulation part should not only ensure the reliable installation of the sensor, but also ensure that it will not affect the flow-induced vibration test results of the in-pile components. Therefore, the guide tube simulation part should simulate the mass and stiffness effects of the formal guide tube product.
[0070] In addition to simulating the mass and stiffness of the guide cylinder product, the design of the guide cylinder simulation part should also simulate the hydraulic characteristics of the product guide cylinder to ensure that it does not affect the flow field and truly reflect the flow field characteristics at the measurement position.
[0071] As a preferred embodiment of the guide tube simulation part design method for flow-induced vibration test of in-pile components of the present invention, in step S1, the guide tube body 100 of the guide tube simulation part adopts a square plate shell, and the material of the guide tube body 100 of the guide tube simulation part adopts the same material as the guide tube body 100 of the guide tube product part.
[0072] The design of the guide tube dummy must ensure not only reliable sensor installation but also no impact on the results of the flow-induced vibration test of the in-core components. Therefore, the guide tube dummy must simulate the mass and stiffness effects of the actual guide tube product, and its material and mass distribution must be consistent with those of the actual guide tube product. Therefore, the guide tube dummy uses the same square plate shell as the guide tube product as its body 100, and the same materials as the actual guide tube product.
[0073] As a preferred embodiment of the method for designing a guide cylinder simulation component for flow-induced vibration testing of in-pile components according to the present invention, step S2 includes the following steps:
[0074] Step S 21 2. Design a mass block 200 inside the guide cylinder simulation part based on the flow area B inside the guide plate of the guide cylinder product. Use the mass block 200 to simulate the guide plate of the guide cylinder product part to ensure that the flow area A inside the guide cylinder simulation part is consistent with the flow area B inside the guide cylinder product part.
[0075] Step S 22 2. According to the mass and distribution of the guide plate of the guide cylinder product, the layout position of the internal mass block 200 of the guide cylinder simulation part is designed to ensure that the overall mass and mass distribution of the guide cylinder simulation part are consistent with the guide cylinder product part.
[0076] Preferably, the guide cylinder simulation can be equipped with 4 to 6 layers of mass blocks 200 to simulate the guide plate of the guide cylinder product. The structure of the mass blocks 200 of the guide cylinder simulation can be simplified compared to the guide plate of the guide cylinder product, but the mass and flow area A of the guide cylinder simulation must be consistent with the flow area B of the guide cylinder product.
[0077] like Figure 5a FIG. 1 shows the design structure of the mass block 200 in the first embodiment of the guide cylinder simulation design method of the present invention. Figure 5b The figure shows the guide plate structure of the guide cylinder product. The guide cylinder simulator significantly simplifies the guide plate structure. However, the cross-sectional area of the central opening in the guide cylinder simulator's mass block 200 matches the cross-sectional area of the guide cylinder product's guide plate structure. Consequently, the flow area A of the guide cylinder simulator matches the flow area B of the product. Because flow areas A and B are identical, the flow fields generated by the two are similar. While there are some differences in the internal flow fields, the pressure pulsation sensor 710 is located outside the guide cylinder, resulting in minimal differences in the measured values between the guide cylinder simulator and the product.
[0078] Preferably, the connection method between the guide cylinder simulation part and the in-pile component body is consistent with that of the guide cylinder product part, that is, the top is connected by bolts 310, and the bottom is positioned and supported by cotter pins or elastic support pins 410.
[0079] As a preferred embodiment of the guide tube simulation component design method for flow-induced vibration testing of in-pile components of the present invention, in step S3, the stiffness of the guide tube simulation component is calculated to determine whether the first four modal frequencies of the guide tube simulation component satisfy the corresponding modal frequency deviation of the guide tube product component by less than 5%; if satisfied, proceed to step S4; if not satisfied, return to step S1.
[0080] As a preferred embodiment of the method for designing a guide tube simulation component for flow-induced vibration testing of in-pile components of the present invention, in step S3, the target values of the first four modal frequencies of the guide tube simulation component are 58 Hz, 62 Hz, 161 Hz and 162 Hz respectively.
[0081] By calculating the stiffness of the guide tube simulation part, when its first four modal frequencies are approximately 58Hz, 62Hz, 161Hz, and 162Hz, and the deviation from the corresponding modal frequencies of the guide tube product part is less than 5%, the quality and stiffness effect requirements of the simulated product guide tube can be met.
[0082] As a preferred embodiment of the guide tube simulation part design method for flow-induced vibration test of in-core components of the present invention, in the step S4, a hydraulic flow field analysis is performed on the upper chamber of the reactor after the guide tube simulation part is installed to determine whether the pressure distribution at the position of the guide tube simulation part deviates from the pressure distribution at the position after the guide tube product part is installed by less than 5%; if so, the design of the guide tube simulation part is completed; if not, the process returns to step S1.
[0083] Because the guide cylinder simulator not only simulates the mass and stiffness of the guide cylinder product, it must also simulate the hydraulic characteristics of the guide cylinder product to ensure that it does not affect the flow field and truly reflects the flow field characteristics at the measurement location. Therefore, the guide cylinder simulator's external dimensions, overall structure, flow channel dimensions, and resistance must be consistent with the product.
[0084] Therefore, the guide cylinder dummy uses a square outer shell consistent with the product as its guide cylinder body 100. Furthermore, preferably, the window size on the guide cylinder body 100 of the guide cylinder dummy is also consistent with that of the product. The flow area A of the guide plate simulated by the mass block 200 inside the guide cylinder dummy is also consistent with the flow area B of the guide plate of the product. Flow field analysis of the reactor upper chamber after the guide cylinder dummy was installed revealed that when the pressure distribution at the guide cylinder dummy position deviated by less than 5% from that of the product guide cylinder, the hydraulic characteristics required for simulating the product guide cylinder were met.
[0085] As described above, the design method of the guide tube simulation part for the flow-induced vibration test of the in-pile component of the present invention can ensure that the flow area, mass distribution and dynamic characteristics of the guide tube simulation part are highly consistent with the guide tube product part; combined with the modal frequency calibration and flow field pressure distribution verification, the mass, stiffness and hydraulic characteristics of the guide tube simulation part can be achieved to meet the requirements at the same time, so as to meet the requirements of the flow-induced vibration test of the in-pile component.
[0086] See also Figure 1 - Figure 5 and Figure 7 The present invention also provides a guide tube simulation component for flow-induced vibration testing of in-core components. The guide tube simulation component is designed using the design method for guide tube simulation components for flow-induced vibration testing of in-core components as described above. The guide tube simulation component is used for installing a pressure pulsation sensor 710 in flow-induced vibration testing of in-core components. The guide tube simulation component is used for installing a pressure pulsation sensor 710 in flow-induced vibration testing of in-core components. The guide tube simulation component includes a guide tube body 100 and a mass block 200; the mass block 200 is arranged inside the guide tube body 100.
[0087] It should be noted that the guide tube dummy for flow-induced vibration testing of reactor internals according to the present invention can be used during hot runs of flow-induced vibration testing of reactor internals and can be used to install pressure pulsation sensor 710. The flange connection structure at the top of guide tube body 100 is typically connected to the upper support plate 500 of the reactor internals, while the flange connection structure at the bottom of guide tube body 100 is typically connected to the upper core plate 600.
[0088] Preferably, the mass block 200 is fixed to the guide cylinder 100 by welding, and the weld C between the mass block 200 and the guide cylinder 100 is as follows: Figure 7 shown.
[0089] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As a preferred embodiment of the guide tube simulation component for flow-induced vibration testing of in-core components of the present invention, the guide tube simulation component also includes a top flange 300 and a bottom flange 400; the top flange 300 is connected to the upper support plate 500 of the in-core component by bolts 310, and the bottom flange 400 is connected to the upper plate 600 of the core by elastic support pins 410.
[0090] like Figure 1 As shown, an upper guide cylinder assembly 800 is further connected to the upper side of the guide cylinder simulation member for flow-induced vibration test of the in-pile components of the present invention.
[0091] It should be noted that the top flange 300 is connected to the upper support plate 500 of the in-core component by bolts 310, and the bottom flange 400 is provided with elastic support pins 410, which are inserted into the upper core plate 600. The top flange 300 is rigidly connected to the upper support plate 500 of the in-core component by bolts 310, which can ensure the precise positioning and stable support of the guide tube simulation component. The bottom flange 400 is connected to the upper core plate 600 by elastic support pins 410, which can allow thermal expansion displacement and absorb vibration energy. This combination design of rigid top and soft bottom accurately simulates the constraint state of the guide tube product in actual reactor operating conditions, ensures the accuracy of test measurements, and improves the safety of the test system under thermal-mechanical coupling loads.
[0092] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 4 and Figure 7 As a preferred embodiment of the guide tube simulation part for flow-induced vibration test of in-pile components of the present invention, a pressure pulsation sensor 710 is provided on the wall surface of the guide tube body 100 , and the sensor wire 720 of the pressure pulsation sensor 710 is provided on the inner side of the guide tube body 100 .

When the pressure pulsation sensor 710 is installed on the sensor mounting seat 210, the sensor wire 720 is set on the inner side of the guide cylinder body 100.
[0094] like Figure 9 As shown, the position of the second mass block 200a or the third mass block 200b is the position closest to the center of the reactor pressure vessel outlet O, which is the position with the maximum flow rate. It is preferred to set the pressure pulsation sensor 710 at this position.
[0095] join Figure 7 As a preferred embodiment of the guide tube simulation member for flow-induced vibration test of in-pile components of the present invention, a wire tube 120 is fixed on the inner side of the guide tube body 100 , and the sensor wire 720 is arranged in the wire tube 120 .
[0096] It should be noted that the guide tube simulator for flow-induced vibration testing of in-core components of the present invention simulates a guide tube product. The sensor mounting base 210 is connected to the upper portion of the second mass block 200a or the third mass block 200b (the second or third mass layer), and the sensor wire 720 is disposed inside the guide tube body 100. Preferably, a wire conduit 120 is provided inside the guide tube body 100 to protect and guide the sensor wire 720, thereby meeting the requirements of flow-induced vibration testing of in-core components. The lower end of the wire conduit 120 inside the guide tube body 100 is near the root of the sensor wire 720, and the upper end is near the upper flange. The diameter of the wire conduit 120 is approximately 10 to 50 mm and can be welded to the inside of the guide tube simulator using a pipe clamp.

[0098] Preferably, the sensor mounting seat 210 is fixed to the mass block 200 by welding, and the mass block 200 is fixed to the guide cylinder body 100 by welding.
[0099] It should be noted that the sensor mounting base 210 can be used to mount the pressure pulsation sensor 710.

A threaded hole is provided on the sensor mounting base 210. The head of the pressure pulsation sensor 710 faces the outside of the guide cylinder and is flush with the outer wall of the guide cylinder. The sensor wire 720 is located inside the guide cylinder dummy.
[0100] It should be noted that the guide tube simulation part for flow-induced vibration test of the in-pile component of the present invention simulates the guide tube product part, and the sensor mounting seat 210 is connected to the mass block 200 used to simulate the guide plate of the guide tube product part.
