First valve can be arranged in supply line.When predetermined level was arrived in the water perfusion reaction vessel chamber of coming autonomous source of supply, this valve optionally cut out.Second valve is arranged in circulating line.When water saw through retention device, second valve was optionally opened.The air valve that selectivity is closed can be arranged in the cooling air pipeline.
Above-mentioned and other demand is also satisfied by being used to pour into the method in reaction vessel chamber, said method comprising the steps of: thus use a barrier plate that the reaction vessel chamber is separated reaction vessel with the ICI groove that is positioned at below, reaction vessel chamber; A plurality of ICI pipelines are passed opening on the barrier plate, and described ICI pipeline is connected nuclear reaction container bottom and extends through the ICI groove.This method also comprises the step that ball bearing is provided, and each neck collar is around each the ICI pipeline that is arranged in each opening and close fit, to support described ICI pipeline and to reduce the leakage of water through opening; Corresponding under situation about in container, melting, guide water to the reaction vessel chamber from main source of supply such as main core; The part of reaction vessel is immersed in the water that is directed to the reaction vessel chamber.Described guiding step can comprise pumps water, and main source of supply can be the storage box of an inner filled with water.This method also comprises makes the water that is supplied to the reaction vessel chamber be back to the circulation step in reaction vessel chamber from the ICI groove.
The method that is used to pour into the reaction vessel chamber is further comprising the steps of: the air duct that is communicated with reaction vessel chamber and ICI groove with open mode is provided, and its position is away from barrier plate, and before the core fusing, air can the reactor vessel cooled chamber by this air duct.
This method also comprises: optionally beginning to make before water cycle flows back to the reaction vessel chamber, selectively stop to reaction vessel chamber guiding water.Guiding and circulation to water can adopt same pump to carry out.In addition, this method can comprise: before beginning that optionally water is directed to the reaction vessel chamber, selectively stop the air cooling is carried out in the reaction vessel chamber.
Because in common work, the reaction vessel heat release, this method can comprise: be clipped between the metal installing plate by the periphery with barrier plate, make the barrier plate thermal expansion.
Fig. 1 has represented the synoptic diagram of cavity filling system well known in the prior art.
Fig. 2 has represented the synoptic diagram according to cavity filling system of the present invention.
Fig. 3 has represented the vertical view according to constant resistance plate of the present invention and ICI pipeline.
Fig. 4 has represented the close-up view of the opening that comprises on a part of constant resistance plate and its.
The demand is satisfied by the filling system that is used for the nuclear reaction container shown in Figure 2.Reaction chamber n comprises a nuclear reaction container 12, and described reaction chamber 11 is positioned at the top of ICI groove 13.ICI pipeline 14 links to each other with the bottom of nuclear reaction container 12, and extends through ICI groove 13.A retention device 19 is between reaction chamber 11 and ICI groove 13.This retention device 19 comprises a fixed head 15, but not the I ellbeam screen in some existing system.In Fig. 3 and most preferred embodiment shown in Figure 4, represented this plate 15.
Because fixed head 15 is near nuclear reaction container 12, in the common course of work, plate 15 can heating.In order to make barrier plate 15 that thermal expansion take place, can use sheet metal 16 that barrier plate 15 is installed, described sheet metal 16 is clipped on the periphery of plate 15.
The water that is applied on the above-mentioned barrier plate 15 has 60 feet static pressure head, described barrier plate 15 comprises that the metal installing plate 16 of clamping barrier plate 15 peripheries and ICI pipeline 14 pass opening 17 wherein, and owing in the opening 17 bearing 18 is arranged, per minute only has about several gallons water to leak by retention device 19.Because the water that is applied on the above-mentioned barrier plate 15 has 60 feet static pressure head, so when comparing, because container 12 fast, directly be exposed in the water, so the method for the enough obvious improvement of nuclear reaction container 12 energy is cooled off with legacy system.
At normal factory duration of work, cold air passes air duct 20 and flows in the reaction chamber.Described pipeline 20 passes the wall in adjacent I CI groove 13 and reaction vessel chamber 11, thereby and passes fixed head 15 as a part of retention device 19.
By using pump 22, be fed in the nuclear reaction container chamber 11 from the water of IRWST21.Described IRWST21 is the main water source that is supplied to container chamber 11.Pump 22 can be positioned at the zone of any drying, although in most preferred embodiment, pump 22 is arranged in the safe injection pump chamber 23 of IRWST21 below.It is very beneficial that pump 22 is on the position at all water sources that are lower than in the system.Therefore, water will flow to vacuum pump 22 places naturally, and this just is not required to be the pump that overcomes gravity and use other.
Water is supplied to pump 22 by supply line 24 from IRWST21.Then, this pump 22 by fill pipe 25 with hydraulic pressure in reaction vessel chamber 11.Be supplied to water in the container chamber 11 to be full of space in the nuclear reaction container chamber 11, described space segment ground is around nuclear reaction container 12 and be positioned at the top of constant resistance plate 15.The intensity of described constant resistance plate 15 is enough big, is able to the part that reaction vessel 12 is crossed in submergence to carry enough water.As mentioned above, the water of relatively small amount sees through barrier plate 15.In order to keep the part of submergence reaction vessel 12, provide a storage tank 26 accepting the water of leakage, and by circulating line 27 the water supply is returned to fill pipe 25 by pump 22.
As the part of filling system, also be provided with valve.A valve 28 is arranged in supply line 24.When filling reaction vessel chamber 11 from the water of IRWST21, this valve 28 is opened.When water was filled 11 to the predetermined level in reaction vessel chamber, promptly when the part of reaction vessel 12 during by abundant submergence, valve 28 cut out.Another valve 29 is arranged in circulating line 27.When wishing that water only is supplied to container chamber 11 and when water leaked by barrier plate 15, this valve 29 cut out from IRWST21.When water sees through retention device 19 and enters the storage tank 26 that is positioned at ICI groove below, and when wishing that these water turn back to reaction vessel chamber 11, valve 29 is opened.
In each cooling air pipeline, be provided with air valve 30.When blows air over ICI groove 13, these air valves 30 are opened.But in case water is imported into reaction vessel chamber 11 or water when leaking in the ICI groove 13 by cooling air pipeline 20, valve 30 must cut out.
Above-mentioned and other demand is also satisfied by adopting the filling system that has existed now, described filling system comprises: a reaction vessel, an ICI groove and an a plurality of ICI pipeline that is connected nuclear reaction container bottom and passes the ICI groove that is positioned at below the reaction vessel chamber.In order to realize this purpose, also provide a retention device 19, it has ball bearing 18, and each ball bearing 18 all closely is assemblied in around each ICI pipeline 14 in each opening 17, described retention device 19 supports ICI pipeline 14, and reduces the leakage of water by opening 17 as far as possible.Fig. 2 has represented how to use piping system of the present invention to establish situation along separate routes for existing already present filling system.This comprises additional pump 22 from IRWST21. Increase pipeline 24,25,27 and just be enough to avoid using the IRWST wasteway of system shown in Figure 1, the wasteway and the reaction chamber wasteway of retain liquid.
Although described embodiments of the invention, should be understood that the present invention is not limited only to any embodiment that determines described here.For a person skilled in the art, under the situation of the spirit and scope that do not break away from claims of the present invention, the present invention can make multiple changes and improvements.
