Description

CONNECTING MECHANISM FOR CONNECTING SEPARATED NUCLEAR POWER PLATFORM IN ICE REGION Technical Field The present invention belongs to the field of ocean engineering in ice regions, relates to a connecting mechanism for connecting a separated nuclear power platform in an ice region, and particularly relates to a connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch and roll for connecting a separated nuclear power platform in an ice region and a connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch, roll and heave for connecting a separated nuclear power platform in an ice region. Background With global warming, the melting of Arctic sea ice has been accelerated, and conventionally navigable waters have appeared in summer. In the context of continuous development of economic globalization and regional integration, the value of the Arctic in strategy, economy, scientific research, environmental protection, waterways and resources has been continuously increased. The development and utilization of Arctic waterways and resources can greatly influence the energy strategy and economic development of China. As a development foundation in a polar region and an important energy supply engineering device, the nuclear power platform in the ice region provides sufficient and stable energy, and has less influence on the environment, high safety and great application prospects. Its related problems will become research hotspots in China and abroad. The safety problem of a nuclear reactor is an important problem that needs to be solved urgently for the nuclear power platform in the ice region. The present invention is proposed to ensure the safety of a nuclear reactor supporting platform. The performance requirements of the nuclear reactor supporting platform have two categories. The first category requires to ensure the buoyancy, stability and insubmersibility in still water. The second category requires to ensure movement performance and structural strength performance under environmental loads such as sea wind, sea waves, ocean current, sea ice and earthquakes. The connecting mechanism for the nuclear power platform in the ice region shall be designed on the premise of ensuring the above performance and safety. For operation safety of the nuclear reactor, stable operating conditions need to be provided, that is, strict requirements for the stability and movement performance of the nuclear reactor supporting platform are proposed .Under the action of large environmental loads, including the combined action of waves, wind and current and the combined action of ice, wind and current, the six-degree-of-freedom motion response of the nuclear reactor supporting platform needs to be small to ensure the safety of the nuclear reactor. The existing mooring system cannot meet the strict requirements.
Summary To solve the problems mentioned above in the prior art, the present invention proposes two
connecting mechanisms for connecting a separated nuclear power platform based on the
operating environment and requirements of a nuclear reactor supporting platform in ice region.
These two mechanisms are adapted to the environment in ice region so as to ensure the safety of
the nuclear reactor supporting platform.
To achieve the above purposes, the present invention adopts the following technical
solution:
A connecting mechanism for connecting a separated nuclear power platform in an ice region
comprises two structures: a connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch and roll for connecting a
separated nuclear power platform in an ice region and a connecting mechanism of decoupled
pitch, roll and heave for connecting a separated nuclear power platform in an ice region.
The connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch and roll for connecting the separated nuclear
power platform in the ice region is provided. The connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch and
roll is used for ensuring the safety of the nuclear reactor supporting platform. The connecting
mechanism of decoupled pitch and roll comprises a horizontal ring 1, rotating shafts 2, rolling
bearings 3, bearing rings 4, rolling bearing brakes 5 and an auxiliary device. The rolling bearing
brakes 5 are locking devices, and the auxiliary device comprises fenders 6 and mooring lines 7.
The connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch and roll can connect the nuclear reactor
supporting platform 8 and an environment bearing platform 9 which are separated from each
other. The nuclear reactor supporting platform 8 adopts tension leg mooring so that the
movement outside the horizontal plane of the platform (heave, roll and pitch) is small; and the
environment bearing platform 9 adopts a four-point mooring form, which is mainly used to
restrain the movement in the horizontal plane (surge, sway and yaw).
The nuclear reactor supporting platform 8 is cylindrical, and two rolling bearings 3 are
arranged symmetrically in the middle of a cylindrical surface of the nuclear reactor supporting
platform. Four rotating shafts 2 are installed inside and outside the horizontal ring 1, and
distributed at an interval of 900. The axial direction of the rotating shafts 2 coincides with the
radial direction of the horizontal ring 1, wherein two rotating shafts 2 on the same diameter are
installed inside the horizontal ring 1; the other two rotating shafts 2 are installed outside the
horizontal ring 1. The fender 6 is installed on the other side of the installation point of each
rotating shaft 2 on the horizontal ring 1. Two rolling bearings 3 on the nuclear reactor supporting
platform 8 are installed on the rotating shafts 2 inside the horizontal ring 1 through the bearing
rings 4; and the fenders 6 installed corresponding to the two rotating shafts 2 are supported on the inner surface of the environment bearing platform 9. The mooring lines 7 are flexible cables, and comprise four groups installed at an interval of 90°; each group comprises four mooring lines 7; one end of the four mooring lines 7 of each group is installed at equal intervals on the same altitude outside the cylindrical surface of the nuclear reactor supporting platform 8, and the other ends are installed at equal intervals on the same altitude on the inner surface of the environment bearing platform 9 to prevent an external platform from driving the nuclear reactor supporting platform 8 to swing greatly under extreme conditions and impacting the nuclear reactor supporting platform 8. Two rolling bearings 3 are installed symmetrically in the middle of the inner surface of the environment bearing platform 9. The rolling bearings 3 are installed on the rotating shafts 2 outside the horizontal ring 1 through the bearing rings 4, and the fenders 6 installed corresponding to the two rotating shafts 2 are supported on the nuclear reactor supporting platform 8. Each of the four rolling bearings 3 is provided with a rolling bearing brake 5 for braking the rolling bearings 3 during towing. The auxiliary device connects an internal platform and the external platform by arranging four fenders 6 and sixteen mooring lines 7 in four groups to prevent the external platform from greatly swinging under the extreme conditions and impacting the internal platform, thereby enhancing the safety of the system. The locking device can fix the internal platform and the external platform through the rolling bearing brakes 5 during towing, so as to solve the problem of stability of the internal platform without tension leg mooring during actual towing. The connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch and roll transmits the movement in the horizontal plane, so that the external platform limits the three-degree-of-freedom movement in the horizontal plane of the internal platform. The connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch and roll does not transmit roll and pitch movements, that is, roll and pitch of the external platform do not affect the internal platform. The connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch and roll transmits the heave movement. The environment bearing platform 9 has a truncated cone shape, and has a lower extension structure which makes radiation damping large, which is equivalent to the function of a heave plate. The heave movement performance is good, so that inner and outer heave degrees of freedom synchronously move slightly. The connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch and roll separates the roll and pitch movements of the internal platform and the external platform, allows a certain degree of relative movement, and weakens the impact of the movement of the environment bearing platform 9 on the nuclear reactor supporting platform 8. A connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch, roll and heave for connecting a separated nuclear power platform in an ice region is provided. The connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch, roll and heave comprises a horizontal ring 1, rotating shafts 2, a sleeve 10, pulleys 11, slideways 12, rolling bearings 3, bearing rings 4, rolling bearing brakes 5, pulley brakes 13 and an auxiliary device. The rolling bearing brakes 5 are locking devices; the pulley brakes 13 are brake devices; and the auxiliary device comprises fenders 6 and mooring lines 7. The connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch, roll and heave can connect the nuclear reactor supporting platform 8 and an environment bearing platform 9 which are separated from each other. The nuclear reactor supporting platform 8 adopts tension leg mooring so that the movement outside the horizontal plane of the platform (heave, roll and pitch) is small; and the environment bearing platform 9 adopts a four-point mooring form, which is mainly used to restrain the movement in the horizontal plane (surge, sway and yaw). The nuclear reactor supporting platform 8 is cylindrical, and two rolling bearings 3 are arranged symmetrically in the middle of a cylindrical surface of the nuclear reactor supporting platform. Four rotating shafts 2 are installed inside and outside the horizontal ring 1, and distributed at an interval of 90°. The axial direction of the rotating shafts 2 coincides with the radial direction of the horizontal ring 1, wherein two rotating shafts 2 on the same diameter are installed inside the horizontal ring 1; and the other two rotating shafts 2 are installed outside the horizontal ring 1. The fender 6 is installed on the other side of the installation point of each rotating shaft 2 on the horizontal ring 1. Two rolling bearings 3 on the nuclear reactor supporting platform 8 are installed on the rotating shafts 2 inside the horizontal ring 1 through the bearing rings 4; and the fenders 6 installed corresponding to the two rotating shafts 2 are supported on the inner surface of the sleeve 10. The mooring lines 7 are flexible cables, and comprise four groups installed at an interval of 90°; each group comprises four mooring lines 7; one end of the four mooring lines 7 of each group is installed at equal intervals on the same altitude on the outer surface of the cylindrical surface of the nuclear reactor supporting platform 8, and the other ends are installed at equal intervals on the same altitude on the inner surface of the sleeve 10 to prevent an external platform from driving the nuclear reactor supporting platform 8 to swing greatly under extreme conditions and impacting the nuclear reactor supporting platform 8. Two rolling bearings 3 are installed symmetrically in the middle of the inner surface of the sleeve 10. The rolling bearings 3 are installed on the rotating shafts 2 outside the horizontal ring 1 through the bearing rings 4, and the fenders 6 installed corresponding to the two rotating shafts 2 are supported on the nuclear reactor supporting platform 8. Each of the four rolling bearings 3 is provided with a rolling bearing brake 5 for braking the rolling bearings 3 during towing. Four groups of pulley systems are symmetrically installed outside the sleeve 10, and each pulley system comprises 5 pulleys 11. The pulley brakes 13 are installed on supporting rods of the pulleys 11 for braking the pulleys 11 during towing. Four slideways 12 are symmetrically arranged inside the environment bearing platform 9. The pulleys 11 are installed in the slideways 12. The locking device can limit the rolling bearings 3 through the rolling bearing brakes 5 during towing, and the brake devices can limit the pulleys 11 through the pulley brakes 13 during towing, so as to fix the internal platform and the external platform, thereby solving the problem of stability of the internal platform without tension leg mooring during actual towing. The auxiliary device connects the internal platform and the sleeve 10 by arranging four fenders 6 and sixteen mooring lines 7 in four groups to connect with the external platform, to prevent the external platform from driving the sleeve 10 to greatly swing under the extreme conditions and impacting the internal platform, thereby enhancing the safety of the system. The connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch, roll and heave transmits the movement in the horizontal plane, so that the external platform limits the three-degree-of-freedom movement in the horizontal plane of the internal platform. The connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch, roll and heave does not transmit roll, pitch and heave movements, that is, roll, pitch and heave movements of the external platform do not affect the internal platform. The connecting mechanism of decoupled pitch, roll and heave separates the roll, pitch and heave movements of the internal platform and the external platform, allows a certain degree of relative movement, and weakens the impact of the movement of the environment bearing platform 9 on the nuclear reactor supporting platform 8.
