Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of temperature monitoring, and specifically to a temperature monitoring and sensing device applied to the electrical penetration of the containment vessel of a nuclear power plant. Background Art
[0002] Existing products on the market for directly measuring the temperature of the cable assembly of the electrical penetration of the containment vessel of a nuclear power plant are in a wired form, such as K-type thermocouples. The assembly is cumbersome and there is a risk of seal failure. The temperature monitoring and sensing device applied to the electrical penetration of the containment vessel of a nuclear power plant involved in the utility model is a wireless temperature sensing system. The penetration cylinder itself is a metal sealing structure, which has a shielding effect on the propagation of electromagnetic waves. The utility model utilizes the propagation characteristics of electromagnetic waves. At the same time, a corresponding wireless temperature sensor is designed, which can smoothly transmit the wireless signal of the sensor located inside the penetration cylinder and be received by the acquisition antenna located outside the penetration cylinder, and then transmitted to the collector for analysis and processing.
[0003] There is also a technical solution on the market. The monitored temperature is the temperature of the nitrogen gas filled inside the penetration. By using the interface of the pressure gauge, it contacts the internal nitrogen gas, and then the nitrogen gas temperature is collected. The temperature sensor adopts a thermal resistance and active method (such as battery power supply). However, nitrogen itself is not a good heat conductor, and the monitoring of nitrogen gas temperature has a large lag in the temperature monitoring of the heat source (i.e., the conductor assembly) of the penetration.

[0035] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, a temperature monitoring and sensing device applied to the electrical penetration piece of the containment of a nuclear power plant according to the present utility model includes wireless temperature sensors 1 and 2, a conductor assembly 3, collecting antennas 4 and 5, a penetration piece cylinder 6, a collector 7, and a display device 8.

The collector 7 is designed with multiple ports, a total of 16 ports, meeting the requirements of the vast majority of the quantity and models of conductor assemblies.
[0037] Specifically, in one embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, for the temperature monitoring and sensing device applied to the electrical penetration piece of the containment of a nuclear power plant, the wireless temperature sensors are installed on the conductor assembly inside the penetration piece cylinder. There are five sensors, evenly distributed. At the same time, similar sensors are also installed at both ends of the conductor assembly outside the cylinder to monitor the external temperature. The wireless temperature signals emitted by them can be received by the collecting antennas outside the cylinder and output to the collector, and after being parsed, they are displayed on the display device. The platform has certain edge computing capabilities, real-time temperature curves, and alarm capabilities.
