Description

A kind of large size pool type natrium cold fast reactor neutron detection method
Technical field
The invention belongs to corpuscular radiation fields of measurement, in particular to a kind of large-scale pool type natrium cold fast reactor neutron detection side Method.
Background technique
Neutron Flux Monitoring System is the essential monitoring system of reactor, is related to reactor start-up, power fortune Can row, shutdown, test and charging process go on smoothly.According to China's correlation nuclear safety codes and the regulation of professional standard, instead Stack device is answered to must be provided with neutron fluence rate monitoring device.
The large-scale sodium-cooled fast reactor neutron detection method of Russia uses the inside and outside setting neutron detector of reactor vessel, is So that container external detector is received more neutron signals and cavity is set in container to increase neutron to container external leakage. But this method is affected by the size of reactor vessel, for larger sized reactor, is arranged outside heap container Neutron detector is difficult to receive effective neutron signal.And the neutron detector being arranged outside heap container is to reactor first fuel loading And the neutron monitoring during cold-refueling is unable to satisfy requirement.
Although China has not yet built up large-scale sodium-cooled fast reactor, outside the heap container of the large-sized pool type natrium cold fast reactor of high power The problem of neutron detection is urgently to be resolved.
Summary of the invention
(1) goal of the invention
Large-scale pool type natrium cold fast reactor neutron detection ability is measured the present invention overcomes the prior art, and standard, heap container is not achieved The neutron detector of outer setting is unable to satisfy requirement and big to the neutron monitoring during reactor first fuel loading and cold-refueling Type pool type sodium-cooled fast reactor core size is larger, even if in heap container be arranged detector can because detector position apart from reactor core compared with It far is difficult to meet the deficiency of detection requirement, provides a kind of large-scale pool type natrium cold fast reactor neutron detection method.This method solves The problem of large-scale pool type natrium cold fast reactor neutron detection difficulty realizes the outer neutron monitoring range covering full power amount of heap container Journey, and overall process monitoring can be played the role of during first fuel loading starts and reloads.
(2) technical solution
In order to solve the problems of prior art, technical solution provided by the invention is as follows:
(1) the first neutron detector is set in the neutron detector chamber in heap container side, refueling machine direction, while It is arranged in heap container below this direction refueling machine and squeezes sodium chamber, forms neutron extraction channel;
(2) close to neutron extraction channel direction arranged off-centre neutron source;
(3) the second neutron detector in refueling machine lateral location setting heap, is used in combination the first neutron detector and the Two neutron detectors realize the neutron detection of large-scale pool type natrium cold fast reactor.
Further, in the step (1) to wrapping up moderator around neutron detector cavity room.
Further, the second neutron detector is in refueling machine channel two in the refueling machine side setting heap of the step (3) Side is respectively set detector and carries out neutron monitoring.
Further, the depleted uranium component of reactor core replaces with stainless steel component on neutron extraction channel direction.
Further, chamber where the first neutron detector and reactor core are arranged in same level by the step (1).
Further, it is wrapped up around step (1) the neutron detector chamber using zircoium hydride.
Further, it is wrapped up around step (1) the neutron detector chamber using graphite.
Further, the second neutron detector is fixed on the fixed protection platform of heap top in the step (2), it will be in second Plane is set as waiting height in sub- detector probe and reactor core.
Further, moderator is provided with around the neutron source.
Further, (3) second neutron detector of step is only arranged one.
(3) beneficial effect
This method can solve the problems, such as that large-scale pool type natrium cold fast reactor neutron detection is difficult, so that the outer neutron monitoring model of heap container Covering total power range is enclosed, and overall process monitoring can be played the role of during first fuel loading starts and reloads.Wherein, (1) exists Detector is set at the reactor pit in heap container side refueling machine direction, while sodium is set in the heap container below this direction refueling machine Cavity forms neutron extraction channel, and because the heap inner shield in direction thus is weak, neutron is easily leaked out to herein, emptying neutron leakage Sodium on direction then considerably increases amount of the neutron to heap external leakage;The depleted uranium component of reactor core on neutron extraction channel direction is replaced Being changed to stainless steel component can make the equivalent heat neutron fluence rate at ex-core detector improve 2-3 times.(2) where neutron detector Graphite is set around chamber or hydrogenates the moderator of zirconia material, to the Moderation of the fast neutrons for leaking reactor core where detector Position forms thermal neutron peak, i.e. thermal neutron fluence rate in raising chamber, improves the response of neutron detector;Slowing down is done using graphite Agent can make thermal neutron fluence rate at detector improve 2 times, do moderator thermal neutron fluence rate using zircoium hydride and improve 4 times;(3) partially The heart arranges neutron source, so that reactor core neutron is easily leaked out to detector, improves neutron detector detection efficient.

Specific embodiment
Below in conjunction with specification drawings and specific embodiments, the present invention is further elaborated.
First neutron detector is set in the neutron detector chamber 5 in heap container side, 3 direction of refueling machine, while It is arranged in the heap container of this 3 lower section of direction refueling machine and squeezes sodium chamber 4, forms neutron extraction channel;Arrangement institute as shown in Figure 1, Figure 2 Show;The depleted uranium component of reactor core 1 replaces with stainless steel component on neutron extraction channel direction.Chamber where first neutron detector with Reactor core 1 is arranged in same level.5 surrounding of neutron detector chamber is wrapped up using zircoium hydride or graphite.In Sub- extraction channel direction arranged off-centre neutron source 8, as shown in Figure 3;Zircoium hydride or graphite moderator are provided with around neutron source 8. The second neutron detector 7 is separately positioned on refueling machine channel two sides in heap, is fixed on heap top fixed protection platform 2, in second The sub- probe of detector 7 is set as waiting height with plane in reactor core 1.Second neutron detector 7 settable one may also set up two.
