While an increase in QPTR does not directly affect the safe operation of the reactor, it can indirectly impact its operation and safety margins.

[0064] Therefore, how to control the increase of quadrant power tilt has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently in this field.

[0065] The quadrant power tilt control method for the core provided in an embodiment of the present application can be applied in an application environment as shown in Figure 1. Figure 1 is an internal structure diagram of a computer device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The computer device can be a server, and its internal structure diagram can be as shown in Figure 1.

The internal memory provides an environment for the operation of the operating system and the computer program in the non-volatile storage medium. The network interface of the computer device is used to communicate with an external terminal through a network connection. When the computer program is executed by the processor, a quadrant power tilt control method for the core is implemented.

[0066] Those skilled in the art will understand that the structure shown in Figure 1 is merely a block diagram of a portion of the structure related to the technical solution of the present application, and does not constitute a limitation on the computer device to which the technical solution of the present application is applied. The specific computer device may include more or fewer components than shown in the figure, or combine certain components, or have a different component arrangement.

[0067] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG2 , FIG2 is a flow chart of a quadrant power tilt control method for a reactor core provided by an embodiment of the present application. The method can be applied to the computer device in FIG1 . The method includes the following steps:

[0068] S201, determining a first expression for a first change rate of the quadrant power tilt corresponding to each quadrant in a fuel cycle containing burnable poison based on a first change in the quadrant power tilt caused by fuel combustion in each quadrant of the core in a fuel cycle containing burnable poison, a second change in the quadrant power tilt caused by combustion of the burnable poison, and a burnup increment of the core.

[0069] In an embodiment of the present application, the core can be divided into four sub-cores, and the areas where the four sub-cores are located are defined as four quadrants. For example, as shown in FIG3 , FIG3 illustrates two possible quadrant division methods provided in an embodiment of the present application. The core can be divided into four sub-cores along a coordinate axis or a diagonal line, and the areas where the four sub-cores are located are defined as four quadrants.

[0070] In the embodiments of the present application, a fuel cycle containing burnable poisons may be a fuel cycle containing burnable poisons in the reactor core, wherein the burnable poisons may be boron poisons, gadolinium poisons, erbium poisons, etc. The core burnup increment may be the increase in burnup caused by fuel combustion or burnable poison combustion during the fuel cycle, and the quadrant power tilt change may be the change in quadrant power tilt when the core burnup increases during the fuel cycle.

[0071] In the embodiment of the present application, quadrant power tilt can be expressed by TILT, and the TILT of each quadrant of the core can be defined as Where Pi is the quadrant power of the i-th quadrant, which can be defined as TILTi is the quadrant power tilt of the i-th quadrant, Pj is the component power of the j-th component in the i-th quadrant, and the total number of components in the i-th quadrant is N.

[0072] For example, as shown in Figure 4, which is a schematic diagram illustrating the variation of quadrant power tilt (TILT) with burnup in a fuel cycle according to an embodiment of the present application, at the beginning of the lifecycle, the TILT value in the lower quadrant (quadrant 4) of the core reaches a maximum of approximately 0.4%. The TILT value in the opposite quadrant (quadrant 2) of the core reaches a minimum of approximately -0.7%. As core burnup increases, the TILT value in the 4th quadrant increases, before rapidly decreasing at a burnup of 10,000 MWd / tU. Conversely, the TILT value in the opposite quadrant (quadrant 2) decreases, before rapidly increasing at a burnup of 10,000 MWd / tU.

[0073] S202 : Determine target parameters of burnable poison that affect the quadrant power tilt of the core according to a first expression of a first change rate of the quadrant power tilt.

[0074] In an embodiment of the present application, the first change rate of quadrant power tilt can be the ratio of the change in quadrant power tilt to the fuel consumption increment, that is, the first expression can be ΔTILT / ΔBu, where ΔTILT is the change in quadrant power tilt when the core fuel consumption increases from Bu1 to Bu2, and ΔBu is the fuel consumption increment.

[0075] In an embodiment of the present application, a target parameter interval can be preset based on the target parameter of the burnable poison, and the type and amount of the burnable poison can be determined based on the target parameter interval, thereby controlling the quadrant power tilt of the core.

[0076] S203, controlling the quadrant power tilt of the core according to the target parameters of the burnable poison.

[0077] When designing a core loading plan, the core's quadrant power tilt can be controlled based on the target parameter for the burnable poison. For example, if the target parameter is greater than a first preset parameter, the use of the burnable poison corresponding to the target parameter is prohibited to control the core's quadrant power tilt. Alternatively, if the target parameter is less than a second preset parameter, the amount of burnable poison used corresponding to the target parameter is controlled to control the core's quadrant power tilt.

[0078] In an embodiment of the present application, a first expression for the first change rate of the quadrant power tilt corresponding to each quadrant in a fuel cycle containing burnable poison is determined based on the first change in the quadrant power tilt caused by fuel combustion in each quadrant of the core in a fuel cycle containing burnable poison, the second change in the quadrant power tilt caused by combustion of burnable poison, and the burnup increase of the core. Then, based on the first expression for the first change rate of the quadrant power tilt, the target parameters affecting the quadrant power tilt of the core are determined, wherein the target parameters are used to control the quadrant power tilt of the core, thereby controlling the increase in the quadrant power tilt.

[0079] Referring to Figure 5, Figure 5 is a flow chart of a method for obtaining a first expression provided by an embodiment of the present application. This embodiment relates to a possible implementation method of determining a first expression of a first rate of change of the quadrant power tilt corresponding to each quadrant in a fuel cycle containing burnable poisons based on a first change in the quadrant power tilt caused by fuel combustion in each quadrant of the core in a fuel cycle containing burnable poisons, a second change in the quadrant power tilt caused by the combustion of burnable poisons, and a burnup increment of the core. Based on the above embodiment, the above S201 includes the following steps:

[0080] S501 , dividing the first change amount of the quadrant power tilt by the fuel consumption increment to obtain a second expression for a second change rate of the quadrant power tilt.

[0081] In the embodiment of the present application, the second expression can be ΔTILTBu / ΔBu, where ΔTILTBu is the first change in quadrant power tilt caused by fuel combustion in a fuel cycle containing burnable poisons when the core burnup increases from Bu1 to Bu2, and ΔBu is the burnup increment, so

[0082] S502 : Divide the second change in the quadrant power tilt by the fuel consumption increment to obtain a third expression for a third change rate of the quadrant power tilt.

[0083] In an embodiment of the present application, the third expression can be ΔTILTGd / ΔBu, where ΔTILTGd is the first change in quadrant power tilt caused by the combustion of burnable poison in a fuel cycle containing burnable poison when the core burnup increases from Bu1 to Bu2, and ΔBu is the burnup increment.

[0084] S503: Determine the first expression according to the second expression and the third expression.

[0085] In an embodiment of the present application, the first change rate of the quadrant power tilt corresponding to the first expression can be the ratio of the quadrant power tilt change to the fuel consumption increment, wherein the quadrant power tilt change and the fuel consumption increment are jointly caused by the fuel combustion and the burnable poison combustion in the fuel cycle containing burnable poisons. Therefore, the quadrant power tilt change and the fuel consumption increment can be determined based on the first change of the quadrant power tilt and the fuel consumption increment in the second expression, and the second change of the quadrant power tilt and the fuel consumption increment in the third expression, thereby determining the first expression based on the quadrant power tilt change and the fuel consumption increment.

[0086] In the embodiment of the present application, the second expression and the third expression may be added together to obtain the first expression, or the second expression and the third expression may be multiplied by preset coefficients and then added together to obtain the first expression.

[0087] In an embodiment of the present application, a first change in quadrant power tilt is divided by the burnup increment to obtain a second expression for a second rate of change of quadrant power tilt. The second change in quadrant power tilt is then divided by the burnup increment to obtain a third expression for a third rate of change of quadrant power tilt. Finally, a first expression is determined based on the second and third expressions. Because the change in quadrant power tilt and the burnup increment are both caused by fuel combustion and burnable poison combustion in a fuel cycle containing burnable poison, the first expression can be determined based on the second and third expressions. The first expression is then used to determine a target parameter affecting the core's quadrant power tilt, where the target parameter is used to control the core's quadrant power tilt, thereby controlling the increase in quadrant power tilt.

[0088] Based on the above embodiment, the above S503, determining the first expression according to the second expression and the third expression, can be implemented as follows:

[0089] Add the second expression to the third expression to get the first expression.

[0090] In the embodiment of the present application, the second expression and the third expression may be added together to obtain the first expression, or the second expression and the third expression may be multiplied by preset coefficients and then added together to obtain the first expression.

[0091] Illustratively, the first expression may be ΔTILT / ΔBu=ΔTILTBu / ΔBu+ΔTILTGd / ΔBu.

[0092] In an embodiment of the present application, the second expression and the third expression are added to obtain a first expression. Since the quadrant power tilt change and the burnup increase are jointly caused by the fuel combustion and the burnable poison combustion in the fuel cycle containing burnable poisons, the second expression and the third expression are added to obtain the first expression, and then the target parameters affecting the quadrant power tilt of the core are determined according to the first expression, wherein the target parameters are used to control the quadrant power tilt of the core, thereby controlling the increase in the quadrant power tilt.

[0093] Referring to Figure 6, Figure 6 is a flow chart of a method for obtaining target parameters provided by an embodiment of the present application. Based on the above embodiment, the method includes the following steps:

[0094] S601, based on the relationship between the quadrant power and the fuel consumption increment of each quadrant, determine a fourth expression for a fourth change rate of the quadrant power inclination corresponding to each quadrant in a fuel cycle without burnable poison.

[0095] In this embodiment of the present application, the relationship between the quadrant power and the fuel consumption increment for each quadrant can be expressed as ΔBu = P × Δt, where P is the quadrant power and ΔBu is the fuel consumption increment within the time increment Δt. A fourth expression for each quadrant can be expressed as the ratio of the quadrant power tilt change ΔTILT' to the fuel consumption increment ΔBu, i.e., ΔTILT' / ΔBu.

[0096] Based on the relationship between quadrant power and fuel consumption increment, it can be concluded that fuel consumption has a "self-restraining" effect on power distribution. Specifically, when power at a particular location is high, the magnitude of the fuel consumption increase is also large. A relatively large fuel consumption will tend to reduce the relative power at that location. Conversely, when power at a particular location is low, the magnitude of the fuel consumption increase is also small. A relatively small fuel consumption will tend to increase the relative power at that location. This self-restraining effect of fuel consumption on power distribution can be expressed using the fourth expression.

[0097] For example, as shown in Figure 7, Figure 7 is a schematic diagram of the change in quadrant power tilt (TILT) with burnup in another fuel cycle provided by an embodiment of the present application. At the beginning of the life cycle, the 7th quadrant in the lower part of the core has a maximum TILT value of approximately 2%; in the opposite quadrant, the 5th quadrant in the upper part of the core, the TILT value is minimum, approximately -2%. As the core burnup increases, the TILT value in the 7th quadrant decreases due to the high relative power of this quadrant, resulting in a large burnup increment. This large burnup causes the TILT value to continuously decrease, eventually reaching a stable value. Conversely, the 5th quadrant in the opposite quadrant has a minimum TILT value due to its low relative power, resulting in a small burnup increment. This small burnup causes the TILT value to continuously increase, eventually reaching a stable value. In other words, the aforementioned burnup has a "self-suppressing" effect on the power distribution.

[0098] S602, determining a target parameter affecting the quadrant power tilt of the core according to a first expression of a first change rate of the quadrant power tilt, including:

[0099] According to the fourth expression and the first expression, the target parameter of the burnable poison affecting the quadrant power tilt of the core is determined.

[0100] In an embodiment of the present application, the target parameters of the burnable poison affecting the quadrant power tilt of the core are determined based on the relationship between the quadrant power and the fuel consumption increment of each quadrant corresponding to the fourth expression, and the first change rate of the quadrant power tilt corresponding to the first expression.

[0101] In an embodiment of the present application, based on the relationship between the quadrant power and the fuel consumption increase of each quadrant, a fourth expression for the fourth change rate of the quadrant power tilt corresponding to each quadrant in a fuel cycle without burnable poison is determined. Based on the fourth expression and the first expression, the target parameters of the burnable poison that affects the quadrant power tilt of the core are determined. Since the target parameters are used to control the quadrant power tilt of the core, it is possible to control the increase in the quadrant power tilt.

[0102] Referring to Figure 8, Figure 8 is a flow chart illustrating another target parameter acquisition method provided in an embodiment of the present application. This embodiment relates to a possible implementation method for determining a target parameter that affects the quadrant power tilt of the core based on the fourth expression and the first expression. Based on the above embodiment, the above S602 includes the following steps:

[0103] S801: Determine the similarity between the fourth expression and the second expression.

[0104] S802 : When the similarity is greater than a preset similarity threshold, determine a target parameter according to a third expression of a third change rate of quadrant power tilt.

[0105] In an embodiment of the present application, the similarity between the fourth expression and the second expression is determined, and a similarity threshold is preset based on the similarity. If the similarity is greater than the preset similarity threshold, the fourth expression is determined to be similar to the second expression. Since the fuel consumption has a "self-suppression" function on the power distribution in the fourth expression, the second expression also has a "self-suppression" function and will not increase the quadrant power tilt. Therefore, the third expression is determined to be the main factor for the increase in the quadrant power tilt, and the target parameter is determined based on the third expression of the third change rate of the quadrant power tilt.

[0106] In an embodiment of the present application, the similarity between the fourth expression and the second expression is determined. When the similarity is greater than a preset similarity threshold, the target parameter is determined according to the third expression of the third change rate of the quadrant power tilt. Since the target parameter is used to control the quadrant power tilt of the core, it is possible to control the increase in the quadrant power tilt.

[0107] Referring to Figure 9, Figure 9 is a flow chart of another target parameter acquisition method provided by an embodiment of the present application. Based on the above embodiment, the method includes the following steps:

[0108] S901, for each quadrant, determine the product result corresponding to the mth burnable poison component in the quadrant; the product result is the product of the power of the burnable poison component containing the burnable poison in the quadrant, the burnup increment, and the slope corresponding to the burnable poison component containing y roots; the slope is the slope of the curve segment in the K infinity change with burnup curve graph where the reactivity increases with increasing burnup, and m is an integer greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to the total number of burnable poison components in the quadrant.

[0109] For example, a graph showing the relationship between K infinity (Kinf) and burnup can be shown in FIG10 , which is a schematic diagram of a K infinity versus burnup curve provided in an embodiment of the present application. Specifically, FIG10 shows a graph showing the K infinity versus burnup curve for assemblies with a U-235 enrichment of 4.45% and containing 0, 8, 12, 16, and 24 gadolinium rods, respectively.

[0110] In the embodiment of the present application, for example, the power of the mth burnable poison component containing burnable poison in the quadrant can be P m The burnup increment can be ΔBu, and the slope of the component containing y combustible poisons can be X y Therefore, the product can be X y *ΔBu*P m .

[0111] S902: Determine a summation result according to the product result corresponding to the mth combustible poison component in the quadrant.

[0112] In the embodiment of the present application, the product results corresponding to each combustible poison component in the quadrant can be added in sequence to obtain a summation result. For example, the summation result can be ∑ m X y *ΔBu*P m , m = 1, ..., M, y = 1, ..., T. Where M is the total number of burnable poison components in the quadrant, and T is the total number of burnable poison component types in the core.

[0113] S903: Determine a second variation of the quadrant power tilt according to the summation result and the quadrant power of the quadrant.

[0114] The summation result may be divided by the quadrant power of the quadrant to obtain a quotient, which is used as the second variation of the quadrant power tilt. Alternatively, the summation result may be divided by the quadrant power of the quadrant to obtain a quotient, which is multiplied by a preset coefficient to obtain a result of the quotient as the second variation of the quadrant power tilt.

[0115] Exemplarily, the second variation of the quadrant power tilt may be Where M is the total number of burnable poison components in the quadrant, T is the total number of burnable poison component types in the core, and P i is the quadrant power of the i-th quadrant.

[0116] S904, determining a target parameter according to a third expression of a third rate of change of quadrant power tilt, including:

[0117] Based on the slope in the third expression, the target parameter is determined.

[0118] In an embodiment of the present application, based on the first expression, the third expression and the K infinity versus burnup curve, it is determined that the slope in the third expression can be used to control the quadrant power tilt of the core, so the slope in the third expression is used as the target parameter.

[0119] In an embodiment of the present application, a product result corresponding to the type of burnable poison assembly is determined for each quadrant. The product result is the product of the power of the burnable poison assembly containing the burnable poison in the quadrant, the burnup increment, and the slope of the burnable poison assembly containing y roots. The slope is the slope of the curve in the K infinity versus burnup curve, where the reactivity increases with increasing burnup. A summation result is then determined based on the product results corresponding to each number of burnable poison assemblies. A third rate of change of the quadrant power tilt is determined based on the summation result and the quadrant power of the quadrant. A target parameter is determined based on the slope in the third expression. Since the target parameter is used to control the quadrant power tilt of the core, it is possible to control the increase in quadrant power tilt.

[0120] Based on the above embodiment, the above S203, controlling the quadrant power tilt of the core according to the target parameter of the burnable poison, can be achieved by the following methods:

[0121] If the target parameter is greater than the first preset parameter, the use of burnable poison is prohibited to control the quadrant power tilt of the core.

[0122] If the target parameter is less than the second preset parameter, the amount of burnable poison used is controlled to control the quadrant power tilt of the core.

[0123] When designing the core loading plan, if the target parameter is greater than the first preset parameter, the use of burnable poisons is prohibited to control the quadrant power tilt of the core. Specifically, burnable poisons with a steeply increasing reactivity curve with increasing burnup are not used during the core loading plan design. For example, for an assembly using uranium dioxide fuel enriched with 4.45% uranium-235 and 8% gadolinium, an assembly containing 24 gadolinium rods is not used.

[0124] When designing the core loading plan, if the target parameter is less than the second preset parameter, the amount of burnable poison used is controlled to control the quadrant power tilt of the core. Specifically, when designing the core loading plan, burnable poisons with a curve that increases reactivity with increasing burnup and a small slope should be avoided as much as possible. If such burnable poisons must be used, their total number should be limited. For example, using assemblies containing 4.45% U-235 and 8% gadolinium in uranium dioxide fuel, assemblies containing 20 gadolinium rods should be avoided as much as possible. If such assemblies must be used, the number of such assemblies in the entire core should be less than or equal to 8.

[0125] In an embodiment of the present application, if the target parameter is greater than the first preset parameter, the use of burnable poison is prohibited to control the quadrant power tilt of the core; if the target parameter is less than the second preset parameter, the amount of burnable poison used is controlled to control the quadrant power tilt of the core, thereby achieving control over the increase in the quadrant power tilt.

[0126] Referring to FIG11 , FIG11 is a flow chart of a core design method for controlling quadrant power tilt increase during operation of a pressurized water reactor nuclear power plant provided by an embodiment of the present application. The method comprises the following steps:

[0127] S1101 , dividing the first change in quadrant power tilt by the fuel consumption increment to obtain a second expression for a second change rate of quadrant power tilt.

[0128] S1102 , dividing the second change in quadrant power tilt by the fuel consumption increment to obtain a third expression for a third change rate of quadrant power tilt.

[0129] S1103: Add the second expression and the third expression to obtain a first expression.

[0130] S1104: Determine a fourth expression for a fourth change rate of the quadrant power gradient corresponding to each quadrant in a fuel cycle without burnable poison based on the relationship between the quadrant power and the fuel consumption increment of each quadrant.

[0131] S1105: Determine the similarity between the fourth expression and the second expression.

[0132] S1106: When the similarity is greater than a preset similarity threshold, the slope in the third expression is used as a target parameter.

[0133] S1107, controlling the quadrant power tilt of the core based on the target parameters.

Unless otherwise specified herein, there is no strict order restriction on the execution of these steps, and these steps can be executed in other orders.
