Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of dynamic pressure shaft seal of nuclear power plant main pump, specifically relating to a sealing ring assembly for dynamic pressure shaft seal of nuclear main pump. Background Technology
[0002] The main pump is a key piece of equipment in a nuclear power plant. The mechanical seal is one of the key components of the main pump, used to limit the leakage of reactor coolant. It is also the most easily damaged component on the main pump. Even a slight operational deviation can cause abnormal leakage, or even lead to an emergency reactor shutdown, threatening the safe operation of the power plant and causing huge economic losses.
[0003] The shaft seals of main pumps in nuclear power plants require extremely high reliability, ensuring a stable leakage rate and long-term reliable operation. Under normal operating conditions, the main pump shaft seal components can withstand one-third of the pressure in the primary circuit, and under special circumstances, the full pressure of the primary circuit. The dynamic pressure shaft seal components of the main pump require high reliability, preventing loosening, cracking, or other damage during operation or under special conditions, ensuring the integrity of the components until normal shutdown. Because of the high reliability requirements of the dynamic pressure shaft seal components, traditional connection methods carry the potential risk of loosening and disengagement. If a component loosens, it can move as a foreign object within the sealing cavity with the fluid, causing seal damage and, in severe cases, leading to main pump shutdown. Utility Model Content
