摘要: 一台一回路泵停运叠加失厂外电事故下堆容器及堆内非对称三维热工水力特性对于池式快堆的设计与安全运行十分重要。池式钠冷快堆结构复杂,流动路径多,现有系统程序难以准确获得快堆非对称事故下的三维热工水力特征。本研究基于三维数值计算方法,建立CEFR冷热钠池全尺寸一体化模型,模拟了CEFR一台一回路泵停运叠加失厂外电这一典型非对称瞬态事故工况下的三维热工水力行为,特别是主泵惰转及返流的瞬态过程,揭示了钠池内三维非对称流场、温度分布及IHX进出口温度等关键热工参数的瞬态变化特性。计算结果表明,在事故前1 500 s,冷却剂自停运环路IHX出口向上返流至热钠池并通过正常环路IHX出口进入冷钠池,正常环路IHX出口平均温度在600 s左右出现极大值约491.9℃,而停运环路IHX出口温度持续上升并逐渐与正常环路趋于一致。该计算结果可为该工况下反应堆安全评价及结构应力分析提供关键数值参考。Abstract: It is very important for the design and safe operation of pool-type fast reactor to master the asymmetric three dimensional thermal hydraulic characteristics under the accident of one primary pump trip superimposing loss of off-site power. Due to the complex structure and multiple flow paths, it is difficult for the existing system codes to accurately obtain the three-dimensional thermal and hydraulic characteristics of the pool-type sodium-cooled fast reactor under the typical asymmetric accident. This study was based on the three-dimensional numerical calculation method, and a full-scale integrative CEFR cold hot sodium pool model was established. The three-dimensional transient thermal hydraulic behavior under asymmetric conditions of one primary pump trip superimposing loss of off-site power was simulated. In particular, the transient process of running down and reflux was simulated. Transient variation characteristics of three-dimensional asymmetric flow field, temperature distribution and the key thermal parameters, such as the IHX inlet and outlet temperature, were revealed. The calculation results showed that in the 1500 s, the coolant flowed upward back to the hot sodium pool through the IHX outlet of the trip loop and entered the cold sodium pool through the normal loop IHX outlet, and the average outlet temperature of the normal loop IHX appeared a maximum value of about 491.9℃ around 600 s, and then gradually decreased. However, the average outlet temperature of the trip loop IHX continued to rise and gradually tended to be consistent with the normal loop. The calculation results provided the key numerical reference for reactor safety evaluation and structural stress analysis under this working condition.
