Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the field of nuclear energy development and new energy technology, and particularly relates to a supercritical carbon dioxide jetting characteristic test system and a test method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] The supercritical carbon dioxide power conversion system coupled with the liquid lead-bismuth heat exchange is of great significance to improve the thermal efficiency and compactness of the lead-bismuth reactor. Among them, the supercritical carbon dioxide-lead bismuth heat exchanger has small geometric size, fast working medium flow rate, and works under the condition of great pressure difference and great temperature difference, which can cause the blockage of the pipeline by fine impurities and lead bismuth corrosion products, and thus a pipe rupture accident occurs. After the heat exchanger ruptures, the high-temperature and high-pressure supercritical carbon dioxide will be jetted into the low-pressure and high-temperature liquid lead-bismuth environment at a very high speed, and this process will be accompanied by a sharp change in pressure and temperature, which will bring great thermal and force impact to the lead-bismuth environment where the reactor core is located. In the late stage of the accident, the supercritical carbon dioxide will migrate and diffuse in the reactor core, which will endanger the safety of the reactor. The research on this extreme phenomenon involves multiple physics and multiple parameters, and is a key scientific problem in the design and development of lead-bismuth fast reactors. At present, there is no experiment of high-temperature and high-pressure supercritical carbon dioxide jetting into high-temperature liquid lead-bismuth, and the jetting mechanism is not clear. Due to the opacity of liquid lead-bismuth itself, the observation and measurement means of bubble shape are limited, and the visualization of the jetting process has not been studied. Therefore, it is urgent to carry out jetting experiments of different rupture sizes, and to design a bubble visualization system and a measurement method, so as to provide key test data and mechanism verification for the safety accident assessment and software development of lead-bismuth reactors.
