Abstract
A heat exchanger, methods therefor and a nuclear fission reactor system. The heat exchanger comprises a heat exchanger body defining an exit plenum chamber therein shaped for uniform flow of a hot primary heat transfer fluid through the chamber. A plurality of adjacent heat transfer members are connected to the heat exchanger body and spaced apart by a predetermined distance for defining a plurality of flow passages between the heat transfer members. The flow passages open into the exit plenum chamber. Spacing of the heat transfer members by the predetermined distance evenly distributes flow of the primary heat transfer fluid through the flow passages, across the surfaces of the heat transfer members and into the exit plenum chamber. Each heat transfer member defines a flow channel therethrough for flow of a cooler secondary heat transfer fluid.

Technical field
The application relates generally to induced nuclear reaction; Comprise system, process and element (such as reactor core, main heat exchanger or pump); Said element is immersed in the such process of realization in the liquid coolant in the container, and the application relates more specifically to heat exchanger, method for this reason and fission-type reactor system.
Background technology
As everyone knows, in the fission-type reactor that is moving, the nucleic that the neutron of known energy is had the thick atom quality absorbs.Resulting compound nucleus resolves into the fission product that comprises two low atomic mass fission fragments and decay product.The nucleic that known neutron through all energy stands such fission comprises uranium-233, uranium-235 and plutonium-239, and they are fissilenuclides.For example, the thermal neutron that has the kinetic energy of 0.0253eV (electron-volt) can be used to make the U-235 nuclear fission.To not experience as the thorium-232 of fertile nuclide and uranium-238 and to bring out fission, only if use and have 1MeV at least (million electron volt) the fast neutron of kinetic energy.The total kinetic energy that from each fission event, discharges is about 200MeV.This kinetic energy is converted into heat.
In nuclear reactor, above-mentioned fissible and/or fertile material is contained in a plurality of fuel assemblies that closely band together that limit nuclear reactor usually.Fissible and/or fertile material can be with the uranium of the form of fuel pellet and the hopcalite of plutonium, and this fuel pellet is contained in the fuel rod that the conductor separation of being twined around every fuel rod by spacer or spirality ground opens.
In addition, in commercial power producer, fission heat is changed into.About this respect, through the reactor fuel assemblies pumping of defined reaction heap reactor core with through fission process reacting by heating heap primary coolant.In some reactor designs, the primary coolant that heats is sent to steam generator, the primary coolant that in steam generator, heats is given the secondary coolant that is arranged in the steam generator (that is water) with its heat.Primary coolant turns back to reactor core then.The a part of water that receives the primary coolant heat flashes to steam, and this steam advances to the turbine generation unit so that generating.The steam through the turbine generation unit flows to condenser, and condenser makes steam condense into water, and water turns back to steam generator then.
A kind of fission-type reactor that can safe power generation is a pond formula Liquid Sodium fast breeder.In this, uranium-238 can be used as fertile material.Uranium-238 intercept neutrons, and rely on the β decay to change in quality into fissionable plutonium-239.When plutonium-239 again during intercept neutrons, the fission of heat takes place to produce.In fast breeder, possibly not hope that slowing material such as water is as cooling medium.But in such pond formula Liquid Sodium fast neutron breeding nuclear reactor, sodium is the cooling medium of selecting, because sodium does not make the remarkable thermalization of neutron.In addition, because the heat transfer characteristic of sodium, reactor core can move with higher power density, the feasible size that can dwindle reactor.In addition, sodium seethes with excitement in about 100 ° of C (about 212 ° of F) fusing and at about 900 ° of C (about 1650 ° of F).Therefore, can use sodium and do not seethe with excitement, thereby allow to generate high temperature and high pressure steam at high temperature.This provides the power plant thermal efficiency that improves again.
Yet the sodium cooling agent that cycles through reactor core is radioactive owing to intercept neutrons becomes.Because this radioactivity, the reactor deviser utilizes the intermediate heat switching loop between (a plurality of) sodium cooling agent loop and the steam generation loop.This has reduced the alpha-contamination risk of turbogenerator.In addition, steam generator pipe possibly occur leaks.If leak sodium being transmitted through occurring in the piping system of steam generator, then the heat emission property sodium through steam generator will with water and the violent chemical reaction of steam in the steam generator.This will radioactively pollute water and steam in the steam generator, thus the alpha-contamination risk in biosphere around having increased.Because above-mentioned, the reactor deviser gives birth to the use that adds intermediate heat exchanger between the generator at reactor core and steam, contacts with the direct of steam generator or turbogenerator to avoid the sodium in the reactor core.
Therefore, in above-mentioned pond formula Liquid Sodium fast neutron breeding nuclear reactor, sodium of radioactivity in the intermediate heat exchanger formation stillpot and the border between the on-radiation secondary sodium in the steam generator.In other words, the intermediate heat exchanger that is arranged in the Liquid Sodium pond with reactor core is generally used for from the fast breeder reactor core, reducing phlegm and internal heat, and with this heat transferred external steam generator.
Attempt, so that through utilizing intermediate heat exchanger that heat fully removing from the fast-neutron fission nuclear reactor is provided.On October 13rd, 1981 issued and the United States Patent (USP) 4th of denomination of invention for " Nuclear Reactors (nuclear reactor) " with people's such as Peter Humphreys name; 294; A kind of intermediate heat Switching Module is disclosed for No. 658; This intermediate heat Switching Module comprises shell-tube type intermediate switch and electromagnetic current coupling mechanism, and it is arranged in and is used for driving the fundamental region of primary coolant through the module of heat exchanger.This patent has been handled in the cooling medium stream in relevant secondary coolant circuit, to exist and has been interrupted, for example, when causing like fault by the secondary coolant pump, the serious thermal shock that middle heat exchanger is caused.According to this patent, the purpose of this invention is exist to interrupt in the stream in secondary coolant circuit in emergency circumstances this, alleviates the thermal shock that the intermediate heat exchanger to the liquid metal cooling nuclear reactor of pond formula causes.

With reference to Fig. 1, be equipped with the secondary loop pipeline 180 that from middle heat exchanger 150, reduces phlegm and internal heat once more.Secondary loop pipeline 180 comprises secondary " heat " branch road pipeline section 190 and secondary " cold " branch road pipeline section 200.The hot branch road pipeline section 190 of secondary is connected with intermediate heat exchanger 150 with cold branch road pipeline section 200 integral body of secondary.The secondary loop pipeline 180 that comprises hot branch road pipeline section 190 and cold branch road pipeline section 200 comprises picture from the fluid by the liquid metal of selecting the following group that forms basically: sodium, potassium, lithium, lead and composition thereof.On the other hand, this fluid can be the metal alloy as lead-bismuth (Pb-Bi).Alternative is that in the example embodiment of this paper imagination, this fluid suitably can be Liquid Sodium (Na) metal or the sodium metal mixture as sodium-potassium (Na-K).Owing to described reason just now, the hot branch road pipeline section 190 of secondary extends to steam generator and superheater assembly 210 (hereinafter referred to as " steam generator 210 ") from middle heat exchanger 150.About this respect,,, flow through secondary loop pipeline 180 and be in than on the temperature and enthalpy low before the entering steam generator 210 with the cooling medium that leaves steam generator 210 owing to occur in the heat transmission in the steam generator 210 through after the steam generator 210.Through after the steam generator 210, along extend to provide intermediate heat exchanger 150 that above-mentioned heat transmits " cold " branch road pipeline section 200, as through being second pump, 220 the pumping cooling mediums of electro-mechanical pump.Hereinafter will usually be described the mode that steam generator 210 generates steam at once.
Also once more with reference to Fig. 1, being in the steam generator 210 is the water body 230 with predetermined temperature and pressure.The fluid that flows through the hot branch road pipeline section 190 of secondary is in than flows through the water body 230 on the low temperature of the fluid of the hot branch road pipeline section 190 of secondary through conduction with its heat transferred.Along with the heat transferred water body 230 of the fluid that flows through the hot branch road pipeline section 190 of secondary with it, a part of water body 230 will flash to steam 240 according to predetermined temperature and the pressure in the steam generator 210.Then, steam 240 is advanced through steam pipe 250, an end of steam pipe 250 and steam 240 vapor communication, and the other end and water body 230 fluid connections.Revolving wormgear machine 260 and steam pipe 250 couplings, so as turbine 260 along with steam 240 therefrom through rotating.Generate electricity along with turbine 180 rotates as the generator 270 that through revolving wormgear arbor 280, is coupled with turbine 260.In addition, condenser 290 and steam pipe 250 couplings receive the steam through turbine 260.Condenser 290 makes steam condense into aqueous water, and any used heat is passed to as cooling tower 300, the heating radiator that interrelates with condenser 29.Through being inserted between condenser 290 and the steam generator 210, can being that the 3rd pump 3130 of electro-mechanical pump aqueous water that condenser 290 is condensed 290 is pumped into steam generator 210 along steam pipe 250 from condenser.
Find out like the best from Fig. 5, replace aforesaid hexagon shape configuration, can nuclear fission module 30 be arranged to qualification and be referred to as 222 parallelepiped-shaped fission-type reactor reactor core configuration.About this respect, because hereinafter provides, the reactor core housing 40 of fission-type reactor reactor core 222 limits first end 330 and second end 340.
With reference to Fig. 5, with the configuration-independent of selecting for the fission-type reactor reactor core, fission-type reactor reactor core 20 or 222 can be configured to row ripple fission-type reactor reactor core once more.About this respect, can comprise that the less relatively and dismountable nuclear fission lighter 350 of the enriched isotope of the fissionable nucleus material as (but being not limited to) U-233, U-235 or Pu-239 can suitably be in the reactor core 222.Way of illustration but not limitation property ground, lighter 350 can be near first end 330 relative with second end 340 of reactor core 340.Lighter 350 discharges neutron.The neutron that lighter 350 discharges is caught by the fissible and/or fertile material in the nuclear fission module 30, causes chain reaction of nuclear fission.If necessary, in case that chain reaction becomes is self-holding, just can remove lighter 350.
Still with reference to Fig. 5, lighter 350 causes three-dimensionals advance deflagration wave or " combustion wave " 360.When lighter 350 generation neutrons caused " igniting ", combustion wave 360 was outwards advanced to second end 340 of reactor core 220 near the lighters 330 first end 330, advances or propagating burning ripple 360 so that form.In other words, each nuclear fission module 30 can both pass reactor core 222 and receive at least a portion burning row ripple 360 along with combustion wave 360.The speed of burning row ripple 360 can be constant or inconstant.Therefore, can control the integer that combustion wave 360 is propagated.For example, vertically move the neutron reaction property that aforementioned control rod 95 (referring to Fig. 3) can drive or reduce the fuel rod 50 that is arranged in the nuclear fission module 30 downwards with predetermined or programming mode.Like this, with respect to the neutron reaction property of " unburned " nuclear fuels 50 of combustion wave 360 fronts, drive or reduce the neutron reaction property of the current nuclear fuel that is burning 50 on the place that is in combustion wave 360 downwards.This result has provided the combustion wave direction of propagation of direction arrow 365 indications.The reactive propagation rate of the combustion wave 360 of the operation constraint that receives reactor core 220 that makes of control reaches maximum by this way.For example, making the propagation rate of combustion wave 360 reach maximum provides burnup has been controlled at the means of propagating on the required minimum value under the maximal value that the neutron fluence restriction through the reactor core structure material is provided with part.
The ultimate principle of ripple fission-type reactor of going like this is disclosed in detail and submitted to denomination of invention with people's such as Roderick A.Hyde name on November 28th, 2006 is the pending trial U.S. Patent application the 11/605th of " Automated Nuclear Power Reactor For Long-Term Operation (the automatic power producer of long-time running) "; In No. 943; This application has transferred the application's assignee, by reference its whole open text is incorporated herein hereby.
With reference to Fig. 6, shown is upright adjacent hexagons shape nuclear fission module 30.Though only show three adjacent nuclear fission modules 30, should be understood that in reactor core 20, to have a large amount of nuclear fission modules 30.Each nuclear fission module 30 is installed on the horizontal-extending reactor core lower support plate 370.The ground, bottom that reactor core lower support plate 370 strides across all nuclear fission modules 30 suitably extends.Because hereinafter provides, reactor core lower support plate 370 contains the countersunk 380 that therefrom passes through.Countersunk 380 has the openend 390 that allows cooling medium to flow into.Top ends or the discharge unit horizontal-extending that strides across all nuclear fission modules 30 is the reactor core upper bearing plate 400 that covers all nuclear fission modules 30 with what removably be connected with nuclear fission module 30.Reactor core upper bearing plate 400 also limits a plurality of chutes 410 that allow cooling medium therefrom to flow through.The loop pipeline 130 and first pump 170 (referring to Fig. 1) are transported to nuclear fission module 30 along the cooling medium flow path or the streamline of direction arrow 140 indications with reactor coolant.Primary coolant continues to flow along cooling medium flow path 140 then, and the openend 390 through in lower support plate 370, forming.
As previously mentioned, with the configuration-independent that is reactor core 20 selections, importantly mobile response is piled the heat of reactor core 20 and 30 generations of nuclear fission module wherein.Owing to several respects reason, suitable reducing phlegm and internal heat is very important.For example, if peak temperature surpasses material limits, then possibly cause fire damage to the reactor core structure material.Such peak temperature maybe be because of having changed the engineering properties of structure, those especially relevant character with thermal creep but not shortened the operation life of the structure that stands such peak temperature with hoping.In addition, reactor capability density receives core structural material to bear the capabilities limits of high peak temperature injury-freely.In addition, fission-type reactor 10 alternately can be used to as confirming that temperature is to the test the test of the influence of pile materials.Control reactor core temperature is important for successfully carrying out such test through suitably from reactor core, reducing phlegm and internal heat.
In addition, possibly hope that heat-transfer fluid reaches even through the flow velocity of intermediate heat exchanger 150.Such even velocity of flow can be avoided the inhomogeneous ANALYSIS OF COOLANT FLOW of fission-type reactor reactor core in addition and cause the reactor core reactivity disturbance.And, possibly be desirable to provide the even distribution that cooling medium flows through heat exchanger, flow with the deflection of avoiding cooling medium to pass through heat exchanger.Avoid the mobile development that can alleviate the localization temperature " focus " in the heat exchanger of deflection of cooling medium.Such localization temperature " focus " is the operation life of possibility shortening heat interchanger in addition.Equal uniform flow also works the heating surface that strides across heat exchanger and evenly strengthens heat interchange, thereby strengthens the effect of the heat interchange of given heat exchange area.The structure of intermediate heat exchanger 150 and operation have solved these worries.
The structure of intermediate heat exchanger 150 is described now.With reference to Fig. 1,7,8,8A and 9, intermediate heat exchanger 150 comprise the heat exchanger body 420 on the inner wall surface 122 that is attached to pressure vessel 120, so that intermediate heat exchanger 150 is bearing in the pressure vessel 120.As a kind of substitute, the inner wall surface 122 that limits pond 125 can form the rear wall of intermediate heat exchanger 150.Heat exchanger body 420 comprises fluid discharging cavity volume or discharging plenum chamber 430 is limited to uprightly roughly L shaped (xsect) rear portion 425 wherein.Said more in detail like hereinafter, fluid discharging plenum chamber 430 is made into the shape that the equal uniform flow of first heat-transfer fluid (that is heat-transfer fluid) is provided through fluid discharging plenum chamber 430.Rear portion 425 through heat exchanger body 420 forms, but in fluid discharging plenum chamber 430, is a fluid outlet 435 that leads to a loop cooling tube 130.What be connected with rear portion 425 is the bottom 440 that limits the heat exchanger body 420 of end cavity 450 for hot secondary sodium.End cavity 450 with end cavity waste side or floss hole 455 forms box like structure, and this has above box like structure as through welding, and a plurality of upright tabular heat transfer members 470 are linked to be whole top surface 460.Each heat transfer member 470 is limited to the flow channel that therefrom passes through 480 that respectively holding of flow channel 460 has inlet 490 and outlet 500.Inlet 490 is communicated with the heat-transfer fluid fluid that flows through cold branch road pipeline section 200.The outlet 500 with end cavity 450 in the heat-transfer fluid fluid be communicated with.In addition, should understand, not use conduit or manifold ground that a fluid is supplied to heat exchanger body 420.In other words, duct free or do not have manifold ground a fluid is supplied to heat exchanger body 420.In addition, should understand that the cabin entrance side of intermediate heat exchanger 150 can not have manifold, and the outlet side of intermediate heat exchanger 150 can not have manifold yet.Because do not need such conduit or manifold, so can reduce the cost of investment of structure reactor 10 and/or the manufacturing cost of heat exchanger 150.
