Description

Adopt the swimmer's pool heat supplying nuclear reactor of Nuclear Power Station's Exhausted Fuels

Technical field:

The present invention relates to a kind of swimmer's pool heat supplying nuclear reactor that adopts Nuclear Power Station's Exhausted Fuels, belong to the nuclear reactor technology field.

Background technology:

The swimmer's pool heat supplying nuclear reactor is a kind of low-temperature heat supply reactor, and this reactor is operated under the lower temperature, and the heat energy that nuclear fission produces is directly supplied with the low temperature user, and it simple in structure built easily, and higher security and reliability are arranged.

Multiple design is arranged at present, with the present invention the most approaching be Chinese invention patent, application number 01131099.5 comprises the heat supplying nuclear reactor with forced-circulation cooling deep water of Natural Circulation.Its feature is to utilize the hydrostatic pressure of dark Chi Shui to improve the core exit water temperature, employing comprises the forced circulation and separately placed type loop type type of cooling of Natural Circulation, heat exchanger and ebullator are divided into several loops and are installed in outside the pond, and ebullator is high ratio of revolution impeller ebullator.This swimmer's pool reactor surpasses 100 megawatt hours in design power, after the ebullator stall, still has the Natural Circulation cooling power to waste heat.Cause immediately at pumping accident under the situation of shutdown, can realize the non-active conversion of forced circulation to Natural Circulation.When the loss of power accident takes place, under the situation that the special-purpose shutdown measure (control rod falls or injects boron water) that superposes was simultaneously lost efficacy, forced circulation also can cause reactor capability decline and change hot shutdown condition over to the transfer process of Natural Circulation, has a kind of distinctive inherent safety.

The general employing and light water reactor nuclear power station components identical rod of fuel rod that the swimmer's pool heat supplying nuclear reactor is used, but length is shorter, and form the fuel assembly of reduced size by these short elements.Can certainly be special-purpose fuel element and the fuel assembly of this low temperature heating reactor development.

Seat surplus the nuclear power station of operation has 400 in the world at present, wherein major part is the light water reactor nuclear power station.The annual a large amount of spentnuclear fuel that is drawn off by these nuclear power stations all leaves in and preserves in the pond, send aftertreatment factory to disintegrate after waiting for and handles.These irradiated fuel assemblies all do not use the ceiling value of burnup, generally all have the possibility of further intensification burnup performance fuel assembly potentiality.

Summary of the invention:

The objective of the invention is to design a kind of swimmer's pool heat supplying nuclear reactor that adopts Nuclear Power Station's Exhausted Fuels, existing swimmer's pool heat supplying nuclear reactor structure is made improvement, the reactor core that installation is made up of Nuclear Power Station's Exhausted Fuels is set up spentnuclear fuel and is detected, loads and unloads transportation and safe-guard system.

The swimmer's pool heat supplying nuclear reactor of the employing Nuclear Power Station's Exhausted Fuels of the present invention's design, comprise pond, reactor core, control rod, heat exchanger, reactor core places basin bottom, control rod places reactor core, heat exchanger and ebullator place outside the pond, depth of water is a 10-60 rice in the pond, and ebullator is high ratio of revolution impeller ebullator, it is characterized in that the spentnuclear fuel that described reactor core adopts nuclear power station to draw off.

Above-mentioned reactor can also comprise and is provided with the irradiated fuel store pond, is provided with spentnuclear fuel transhipment water channel between irradiated fuel store pond and the reactor pit.

Above-mentioned reactor can also comprise the sealing and the radioactive emission disposal system in overhead bin chamber, pond and technology cabin.Exhaust treatment system is provided with equipment such as high efficiency particulate air filter and active carbon adsorber, when needs, can seal radgas, accept, compress and store from rupture elements, make its natural decay after, the monitoring radioactivity, and after reaching the permission level, enter chimney.

The present invention forms reactor core at the Chi Shuizhong of swimmer's pool low-temp low-pressure by Nuclear Power Station's Exhausted Fuels, and under the operate power about 200 megawatts, reactor core fission propagation performance might be kept 300 to 600 days under-stream period.During this period, the burn-up level of Nuclear Power Station's Exhausted Fuels increases few, and the performance of fuel element and cladding can be born fully.In the factory building of swimmer's pool process heat reactor, after increasing detection, loading and unloading, the underwater storage of irradiated fuel assembly and transporting facility under water, just spentnuclear fuel can be used for low-temperature heat supply in swimmer's pool.Consider at spent fuel element to contain the more radioelement that the nuclear power station run duration produces, sealing and the disposal system that rupture elements discharges gas is set on stillpot top and technology cabin.

Characteristics of the present invention are:

1. the reactor core formed in the water of swimmer's pool low-temp low-pressure pond of Nuclear Power Station's Exhausted Fuels is on 200 megawatt left sides

Under the right power, its fission propagation performance also can be kept the under-stream period in 1 to 2 year.Former therebetween

The burn-up level of fuel for nuclear power plant increases few, is again to work under low-temp low-pressure, fuel unit

Part and involucrum performance can be born;

2. swimmer's pool process heat reactor pond water capacity is big, deperssurization emergency can not take place, in operating condition, design

Under benchmark accident conditions and the super design reference accident conditions, all have distinctive inherently safe

The property, can guarantee the integrality and the security of spent fuel element in heat supply running effectively;

3. space, swimmer's pool process heat reactor pond is big, is convenient to transform the nuclear power station weary combustion bigger with installation dimension

The stockpile core also is convenient to set up spentnuclear fuel underwater storage and transportation facilities under water;

4. send to processing again after the spentnuclear fuel that draws off of nuclear power station uses in process heat reactor, its expense increase is not

Many.And process heat reactor does not need the first expense of charging in the initial outlay, the combustion in the heat supply running

Material takes and fuel element aftertreatment expense, and heat cost is significantly reduced.

The present invention compares with original swimmer's pool process heat reactor, and it is as follows to have advantage:

1. because the spentnuclear fuel that adopts nuclear power station to draw off does not need to develop the fuel stack of process heat reactor special use

Part;

2. do not need the first expense of charging in the initial outlay, fuel cost and the fuel element in the heat supply running

The aftertreatment expense significantly reduces the nuclear heat cost;

3. the utilization once more of Nuclear Power Station's Exhausted Fuels has not only improved the utilization factor of fuel assembly, and has carried

High uranium resource utilization factor and reduced the nuke rubbish total amount.
