[0003] If ventilation or cooling is not implemented in nuclear power plant main control rooms and electrical equipment rooms after a power outage, the accumulated heat will cause the room temperature to gradually rise, potentially exceeding the temperature limits required for equipment operation and personnel accommodation. Currently, most nuclear power plants use active ventilation and cooling systems with emergency power supplies. These systems occupy large machine rooms and air ducts, resulting in high equipment procurement and maintenance costs. They also consume a significant amount of emergency power capacity after an accident, leaving room for improvement in reliability and cost-effectiveness.

[0022] FIG4 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a phase change cold storage wall using capillary chilled water pipes according to Example 4 of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The structure of an exemplary wall of the present invention having the functions of sound absorption, phase change cold storage and enhanced heat exchange is shown in Figure 1, including a concrete layer 1, a phase change cold storage layer 2 (the supporting material is, for example, honeycomb activated carbon, and the phase change cold storage material is, for example, paraffin with a melting point of 28°C), a resistive sound absorption layer 4 (the material is, for example, 3 cm thick glass wool, wrapped with radiation-resistant glass fiber cloth), a micro-perforated plate 5 (for example, a 0.6 mm aluminum alloy plate, with a black body radiation coating on the surface), a ventilation cavity 7, an insulation layer 8 (the material is, for example, silicone rubber or glass wool, with a thickness of, for example, 50 mm to 80 mm, and a fire resistance time of, for example, 2 hours), a drainage trough 9, a drainage pipe 10 and a heat-conducting cold bridge (for example, the integral heat pipe 6 described below).

[0024] The thermal insulation layer 8 is arranged on the outermost side of the wall (outdoor side) to limit heat transfer from the cold storage boundary to the outside.

[0025] The concrete layer 1 is connected to the phase-change cold storage layer 2 and is located as a whole on the inner side of the thermal insulation layer 8 and the outer side of the micro-perforated plate 5. The concrete layer 1 is used to bear the load of the wall structure and provide part of the cold storage capacity. The phase-change cold storage layer 2 is used to provide the majority of the cold storage capacity. When the phase-change cold storage material is a combustible organic compound including paraffin, the phase-change cold storage layer 2 can be placed between the concrete layer 1 and the thermal insulation layer 8. The inner surface of the phase-change cold storage layer 2 is processed into a rough and porous shape or a layer of sound-absorbing material is attached to it to have certain resistive sound-absorbing properties, and cooperate with the micro-perforated plate 5 to form an impedance composite sound-absorbing function.

[0026] Microperforated panels 5 are placed on the innermost side of the wall, providing radiant and convective heat transfer and noise reduction. They utilize a cold radiant panel structure and are positioned at a distance from the innermost portion of the wall, forming a vertically connected ventilation cavity 7. This cavity utilizes the temperature difference between the room and the wall and the height difference between the upper and lower microperforations to create natural ventilation while enhancing both radiant and convective heat transfer.

[0027] The resistive sound-absorbing layer 4 is arranged between the phase-change cold storage layer 2 and the micro-perforated plate 5, and the ventilation cavity 7 is provided within the resistive sound-absorbing layer 4. The resistive sound-absorbing layer 4 is used to form a sound-absorbing and heat-exchange layer together with the micro-perforated plate 5 and the ventilation cavity 7, meeting both resistive and reactive sound-absorbing requirements.

[0028] A thermally conductive cold bridge connects the microperforated plate 5, the phase-change cold storage layer 2, and the concrete layer 1, serving as both a structural support and a heat transfer component. An integrated gravity heat pipe is used as the thermally conductive cold bridge to enhance heat transfer within the phase-change cold storage layer 2. The unidirectional heat transfer of the heat pipe enables variable cold storage and release rates. If the room requires rapid cold storage and slow release, the gravity heat pipe evaporator section is placed within the phase-change cold storage layer 2; if the room requires slow cold storage and rapid release, the gravity heat pipe evaporator section is located indoors.

[0029] If the room design temperature during normal operation is greater than or equal to the wall's phase-change temperature, the wall also includes a chilled water coil 3. (If the room design temperature during normal operation is lower than the wall's phase-change temperature, the chilled water coil 3 is not required, and the phase-change cool storage material is maintained in a solid state solely through heat conduction from the heat pipe.) The chilled water coil 3 passes through and is arranged within or on the surface of the phase-change cool storage layer 2. The chilled water coil 3 and the phase-change cool storage layer 2 combine to provide the majority of the cool storage capacity. The chilled water coil 3 can be spiral, circuitous, spiral-circular, or capillary-branched (the capillary-branched type improves cooling uniformity and reduces pipe design pressure and flooding risk). Depending on the location of the chilled water interface of the chilled water coil 3, the phase-change cool storage layer 2 can be located either outside the concrete layer 1 (closer to the outdoors) or inside the concrete layer 1 (closer to the indoors).

[0030] A drainage trough 9 and a drainage pipe 10 are set on the ground below the phase change cold storage layer 2 to collect and discharge pipeline leakage water and condensed water, thereby preventing flooding from affecting indoor decoration and equipment, and serving as a means to monitor the integrity of the chilled water coil 3.

[0031] The application examples of the wall with the above exemplary embodiments of the present invention having the functions of sound attenuation, phase change cold storage and enhanced heat exchange are as follows:

[0032] Example 1:

[0033] The concrete layer 1 is the primary load-bearing component of the wall and is responsible for a portion of the cold storage capacity. The phase-change cold storage layer 2 comprises supporting materials and phase-change cold storage material. The wall also includes chilled water coils 3 that pass through and are arranged within or on the surface of the phase-change cold storage layer 2, thus the phase-change cold storage layer 2 bears the majority of the cold storage capacity. The insulation layer 8 is used to reduce the leakage of stored cold to the outside, improve cold storage efficiency, and reduce cooling energy consumption.

[0034] The sound-absorbing and heat-exchange layer consists of a resistive sound-absorbing layer 4, a microperforated plate 5, and a ventilation cavity 7, meeting both resistive and reactive sound-absorbing requirements. The microperforated plate 5 is made of a highly thermally conductive metal and coated with a blackbody radiation coating, resulting in a high radiative heat transfer coefficient. Furthermore, the microperforated plate 5 utilizes the temperature and height differences between inside and outside to generate natural ventilation, circulating air through the ventilation cavity 7, ensuring a high convective heat transfer coefficient.

[0035] The concrete layer 1, the phase-change cold storage layer 2, and the micro-perforated plate 5 are connected by an integrated heat pipe 6, which forms a heat-conducting cold bridge. The integrated heat pipe 6, constructed of steel pipe or hollow square steel, offers high strength and rigidity and serves as a supporting rod for the phase-change cold storage layer 2 and the micro-perforated plate 5. The condenser section of the integrated heat pipe 6 is pre-buried in the concrete layer 1 via a sleeve, while the evaporator section is fixed to the micro-perforated plate 5 at an angle to facilitate gravity return of liquid within the heat pipe.

[0036] During normal operation, the chilled water coil 3 maintains the temperature of the phase-change thermal storage layer 2 slightly below the room temperature and can be used to remove some of the room's cooling load. In this case, the phase-change thermal storage material remains solid. Following a power outage, the chilled water system and the room's air conditioning system shut down, and the temperature difference between the wall and the room gradually increases, causing the phase-change thermal storage material to melt. Through the combined effects of heat conduction through the integrated heat pipe 6, radiation heat transfer through the micro-perforated plate 5, and convection heat transfer through the cavity 7, the cold stored in the concrete, the remaining chilled water, and the phase-change thermal storage material is transferred into the room, maintaining the room temperature below the set point for a certain period of time.

[0037] A drainage trough 9 and a drainage pipe 10 are provided at the bottom of the phase change cold storage layer 2 to collect and drain water leaking from the chilled water pipe and condensed water on the wall. At the same time, the drainage volume can be used to determine whether the chilled water coil 3 in the wall is leaking.

[0038] The chilled water coil 3 can be arranged in a circuitous or spiral manner in the phase change cold storage layer 2. It is recommended to adopt an upward delivery and downward return method to improve the heat exchange efficiency.

[0039] Example 2:

[0040] As shown in Figure 2, this embodiment provides a phase-change cold storage fire-resistant wall structure that prevents chilled water from entering the room. It is suitable for rooms with high requirements for waterproofing and fire protection. The wall is divided into five layers from the exterior to the interior: an insulation layer 8 (a fireproof insulation layer), a phase-change cold storage layer 2, a concrete layer 1, a resistive sound-absorbing layer 4, and a micro-perforated panel 5.

[0041] This differs from Example 1 in that the phase-change thermal storage layer 2 is positioned outside the concrete layer 1, ensuring that the interface of the chilled water coil 3 is accessible outside the room. An insulation layer 8 covers the exterior of the wall to prevent the phase-change thermal storage material from burning during a fire. Furthermore, an integral heat pipe 6 penetrates the concrete layer 1, ensuring heat conduction between the phase-change thermal storage layer 2 and the micro-perforated plate 5.

[0042] Example 3:

[0043] As shown in FIG3 , this embodiment provides a phase-change cold storage wall structure without a chilled water pipe, which is suitable for air-conditioned rooms with low normal operating temperatures and electrical instrument rooms with high waterproofing requirements.

[0044] The difference from Example 1 is that the chilled water coil 3 in the phase change cold storage layer 2 is eliminated, and the inclination angle of all or some of the integral heat pipes 6 is changed (Figure a in Figure 3). The evaporation section (lower end) of the integral heat pipe 6 (functioning as a cold storage heat pipe) is installed in the wall, and the condensation section (upper end) of the integral heat pipe 6 is connected to the micro-perforated plate 5, so that during normal operation, excess cold in the room can be efficiently transferred into the wall for storage. The integral heat pipe 6 has a certain directionality in heat transfer. When the upper end is located on the room side (inside), it can effectively utilize the low temperature during normal operation of the room and quickly transfer the room's cold energy to the wall through the phase change cycle, reducing the temperature difference between the room environment and the interior of the wall, ensuring the required cold storage capacity per unit volume of the wall, and thus replacing the cold storage function of the chilled water pipe. After a power outage, when the room temperature is higher than the wall temperature, although the phase change cycle in the integral heat pipe 6 cannot be established, the cold storage in the wall can still be slowly introduced into the room through the metal part of the outer shell of the integral heat pipe 6 (Figure a in Figure 3) to lower the room temperature; or some additional cold-releasing heat pipes 11 with an inclination angle opposite to the direction of the integral heat pipe 6 can be set (Figure b in Figure 3). Their structure is the same as that of the integral heat pipe, which is specifically used to quickly introduce the cold storage in the wall into the room when the room temperature is higher than the wall.

[0045] Example 4:

[0046] As shown in FIG4 , this embodiment provides a phase-change cold storage wall structure using capillary chilled water pipes, which is suitable for rooms with limited wall thickness.

[0047] This embodiment differs from Example 1 in that the circuitous chilled water coil 3 is replaced with a chilled water main 13 and capillary chilled water branches 12. These are arranged within or on the surface of the phase-change thermal storage layer 2. The chilled water main 13 connects to multiple capillary chilled water branches 12 and distributes chilled water to each capillary chilled water branch 12. The capillary chilled water branches have a larger filling ratio and specific surface area than conventional chilled water pipes, resulting in more uniform heat exchange with the phase-change thermal storage material. Furthermore, the chilled water is transported by capillary and gravity forces, resulting in lower pipe resistance, lower water supply pressure requirements, and reduced leakage risk.

[0048] During normal operation, the wall of the present invention stores cold energy in the concrete and phase-change cold storage material through the chilled water coils inside the wall. After a power failure, the cold energy stored in the concrete and phase-change cold storage material is transferred to the room through the heat pipes and heat exchange plates. At the same time, the heat exchange plates are specially designed to provide noise reduction functions.

[0049] The beneficial effects of the present invention are specifically embodied in:

[0050] 1) The present invention adopts a passive phase change cold storage wall in the heat dissipation room, which can eliminate the active cooling system after a power failure accident, improve the economy and passive reliability of the air-conditioning system, and further reduce room noise.

[0051] 2) The present invention arranges the phase change cold storage layer on the outside of the concrete wall and uses heat pipes to enhance heat conduction inside the wall. Chilled water does not need to enter the room to store and release cold, reducing the risk of electrical equipment failure caused by water pipe leakage.

[0052] 3) The present invention uses a nuclear power plant-specific fireproof insulation material that meets a certain fire resistance time as the outer wall insulation layer, thereby reducing the risk of fire in the phase change cold storage layer and reducing the leakage of cold storage to the outside.

[0053] 4) The present invention connects the concrete layer, phase change cold storage layer and silencer heat exchange plate through an integral heat pipe, which not only increases the strength of the wall structure, but also enhances the heat conductivity inside the wall, solving the problem of low cold storage capacity utilization of the nuclear power plant main control room enclosure structure.

[0054] 5) The present invention uses a micro-perforated plate made of high thermal conductivity metal as a heat exchange plate, adds a blackbody radiation coating on its surface, and reserves a natural convection cavity, which can effectively enhance the convection, radiation heat exchange and noise reduction effects of the micro-perforated plate.

[0055] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is also intended to include these changes and variations. The above embodiments or implementation methods are merely illustrative of the present invention, and the present invention may also be implemented in other specific ways or other specific forms without departing from the gist or essential features of the present invention.
