The graphite sphere for the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor has a shape completely consistent with that of a spherical fuel element for the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor, except that the graphite sphere for the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor does not contain nuclear fuel and does not participate in the reactor core reaction, so that the fuel element for the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor is called a 'true sphere', and the graphite sphere for the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor is also called a 'false sphere'. In order to avoid excessive fuel in the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor in the early period of the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor and over severe reaction, a certain amount of dummy balls are required to be added during design, and the dummy balls are only added in the initial period of the operation of the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor to play roles in adjusting the internal reactivity of the reactor and transferring heat.
Two ways can be generally considered for preparing the artificial ball, one way is a preparation method for completely simulating a real ball, each step and parameter in the method can refer to the design of the real ball, but the method has multiple preparation steps and high cost. The other method is to use artificial graphite to prepare the artificial ball, the preparation steps of the method are few, the cost is low, but the graphite balls prepared by the traditional method can not meet the requirements of nuclear reactors.
The information disclosed in this background section is only for enhancement of understanding of the general background of the invention and should not be taken as limiting the invention.
