Description

A kind of nuclear reactor ash control rod molybdenum base thulium oxide material and its application
Technical field
The invention belongs to the reactive control technology field of nuclear power plant reactor is and in particular to a kind of nuclear reactor ash controls Rod molybdenum base thulium oxide neutron absorber material and its application.
Background technology
In conventional pressurized-water reactor nuclear power plant normal course of operation, the general depth passing through regulation control rod intercalation reaction heap reactor core Degree and change boric acid concentration are tracked to the control of nuclear reactivity with to load.Control used in conventional nuclear reactor Rod, its internal neutron absorber material is strong neutron absorber material, such as Ag-In-Cd alloy pellet.This containing strong neutron-absorbing The control rod of body is referred to as black control rod, referred to as black rod.The minute movement of black control rod can bring the strong change of nuclear reactivity, Typically require and change boric acid concentration to coordinate the movement of black control rod simultaneously.This in conventional pressurized-water reactor nuclear power plant pass through adjust Black rod simultaneously coordinates change boric acid concentration to realize the method to nuclear reactivity control with to Steam Generator in Load Follow, result in nuclear power station daily Need to process substantial amounts of main reaction reactor coolant, and need large-sized container to contain waste liquid.Due to needing to adjust boric acid Solubility and the discarded chemical solution of process are thus complicate control system.Pass through to add water dense with the boric acid in dilute solution simultaneously Or degree increases the boric acid concentration in solution by adding boric acid, and this process is slow, and the required time is long, thus The problems such as bring to the insensitive of nuclear reactivity control and feed back slow.
Therefore, US Westinghouse company proposes to be that grey control rod replaces changing boron using the control rod of the weak neutron absorber of a class Acid concentration coordinates black rod to carry out the control of nuclear reactivity and the tracking of load, and is able in AP600 and AP1000 nuclear reactor Application.The needs of normal handling main reaction reactor coolant can be preferably minimized using grey control rod, thus enormously simplify Learn and volume control system and its operation, increased the sensitivity that nuclear reactivity is controlled, and reduce nuclear power cost.Ash controls Rod is the control rod containing weak neutron absorber pellet, and in nuclear reactor run duration, its most of the time is inserted into heap in-core Portion.And black control rod is the control rod containing strong neutron absorber pellet, in nuclear reactor run duration, little intercalation reaction heap In reactor core.In addition, once occur Nuclear Power Accident, grey control rod and black control rod can automatically hurtle down simultaneously, so that nuclear reaction Heap out of service rapidly it is ensured that nuclear plant safety.
For preparing the candidate material of grey control rod neutron absorber pellet, including the boron carbide (B containing boron element4C)、 Boron steel and combinations thereof body, Ag-In-Cd alloy, material containing rare earth element such as Tb, Dy and Tm etc..But boron carbide With boron steel neutron absorber material easily under arms during more serious irradiation damage occurs, this mainly due to void swelling and B10(n, α) reaction produce helium caused by, and B10Neutron absorption cross-section larger.Therefore, boron carbide and boron steel are not suitable for doing ash Control rod neutron absorber pellet.And it is used for black excellent strong neutron absorber material Ag-In-Cd alloy, due to anti-in core During answering stack operation, black C&P systems insert the time of reactor core seldom, and the neutron irradiation dosage suffering from is few, and neutron irradiation is led The swelling causing and creep compliance are fewer, and therefore Ag-In-Cd alloy is suitable as black control rod neutron absorber material. But for grey C&P systems, in nuclear power station run duration, in about half run time, it is to rest on heap core inner, long Phase suffers from the neutron irradiation of heavy dose.If Ag-In-Cd alloy is as grey control rod neutron absorber pellet, long-term insertion To in reactor core, substantial amounts of neutron irradiation can be suffered from, its void swelling and creep will be very serious, thus affecting grey control The service life of rod.Additionally, Ag, the In and Cd element in Ag-In-Cd alloy all has larger neutron absorption cross-section, and Ag, The neutron absorption cross-section of the transmutation product of In and Cd but significantly reduces.When Ag-In-Cd alloy being used as grey control rod neutron During absorber pellet, after running 5 years, the reactivity worth of grey C&P systems will be reduced to its initial reactivity value 80% about, no longer meet the requirement to grey C&P systems reactivity worth for the mechanical compensation control model.
For manufacturing grey control rod neutron absorber material, mainly consider the nucleon characteristic of its inner element.Thulium is certainly So the stable isotope in boundary is169Tm.The neutron absorption cross-section of Tm is 108bar, and transmutation product is Yb and Lu etc..After transmuting Product after filial generation product and filial generation product transmuting all still has the neutron absorption cross-section close with Tm.Long-term through neutron After irradiation, the pellet containing thulium still has stable neutron absorption capability.Therefore, thulium is excellent control rod neutron absorber Nucleon element.
According to military service feature, nuclear power reactor core ash control rod neutron absorber pellet needs to have a series of key properties, Including neutron absorption capability steady in a long-term;Excellent thermophysical property, such as high heat transfer, low thermal coefficient of expansion, with The heat during housecoat labour generating neutron reaction in pellet conducts in time, to prevent pellet from melting;Good power Learn performance;Excellent anti-neutron irradiation performance, such as low void swelling and irradiation growth etc..Therefore, the block containing thulium element Body material, and meet the above-mentioned condition as neutron absorber pellet, all it is expected to inhale as nuclear reactor ash control rod neutron Acceptor.
