Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de réduction des contraintes thermiques dans le fond d'un échangeur de chaleur vertical entre un métal alcalin liquide primaire réchauffé dans un réacteur nucléaire à neutrons-rapides et un métal alcalin liquide secondaire, comportant un conduit axial d'introduction du métal alcalin liquide secondaire; entouré d'un faisceau tubulaire fixé sur une plaque tubulaire, le métal alcalin liquide secondaire circulant vers le haut dans les tubes du faisceau et le métal alcalin liquide primaire circulant vers le bas autour des tubes du faisceau, et une chambre d'alimentation des tubes du faisceau, disposée au-dessous dudit faisceau et dudit tube d'alimentation, dont le fond est entouré d'une enveloppe délimitant un intervalle rempli de métal alcalin liquide.The present invention relates to a device for reducing thermal stresses in the bottom of a vertical heat exchanger between a primary liquid alkali metal heated in a fast-neutron nuclear reactor and a secondary liquid alkali metal, comprising an axial introduction conduit secondary liquid alkali metal; surrounded by a tubular bundle attached to a tubular plate, the secondary liquid alkali metal flowing upward through the bundle tubes and the primary liquid alkali metal flowing downward around the bundle tubes, and a tube supply chamber of the bundle, arranged below said bundle and said feed tube, the bottom of which is surrounded by an envelope delimiting a gap filled with liquid alkali metal.

Dans des échangeurs de ce genre, il apparaît des différences de température importantes en régime permanent et en régime transitoire, au cours des mises en route ou des changements d'allure, entre le métal alcalin liquide primaire, en général du sodium, sortant du faisceau tubulaire d'échange de chaleur, et le métal alcalin liquide secondaire arrivant à l'entrée des tubes du faisceau tubulaire. Cette différence de température est susceptible de créer des contraintes thermiques importantes dans la paroi du fond inférieur de l'échangeur, pouvant entraîner des déformations ou des ruptures.In exchangers of this kind, significant temperature differences appear in steady and transient conditions, during start-up or changes in speed, between the primary liquid alkali metal, generally sodium, leaving the bundle tubular heat exchange, and the secondary liquid alkali metal arriving at the inlet of the tubes of the tube bundle. This temperature difference is likely to create significant thermal stresses in the wall of the bottom bottom of the exchanger, which can lead to deformations or ruptures.

On a déjà proposé de pallier à ces différences de température en munissant le fond de l'échangeur d'un écran thermique, grâce à une double paroi entourant le fond de l'échangeur et à un écran de métal alcalin liquide enfermé entre le fond et la double paroi. Un tel écran, assez efficace pour réduire les différences de température, et donc les contraintes thermiques, en régime permanent, l'est beaucoup moins lors de régimes transitoires rapides.It has already been proposed to overcome these temperature differences by providing the bottom of the exchanger with a heat shield, by virtue of a double wall surrounding the bottom of the exchanger and a screen of liquid alkali metal enclosed between the bottom and the double wall. Such a screen, effective enough to reduce the temperature differences, and therefore the thermal stresses, in steady state, is much less so in transi fast roofs.

La présente invention a donc pour but de procurer un dispositif de réduction des contraintes thermiques qui soit efficace même lors des régimes transitoires rapides, tout en restant simple et peu encombrant.The present invention therefore aims to provide a device for reducing thermal stresses which is effective even during rapid transient regimes, while remaining simple and compact.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce que l'enveloppe entourant le fond de la chambre d'alimentation des tubes.du faisceau est munie d'au moins une ouverture d'alimentation en métal alcalin liquide primaire prélevé au bas du faisceau tubulaire, au niveau de la périphérie de la plaque tubulaire et d'une ouverture de sortie dans son fond.The device according to the invention is characterized in that the envelope surrounding the bottom of the tube supply chamber. Of the bundle is provided with at least one feed opening in primary liquid alkali metal taken from the bottom of the tubular bundle , at the periphery of the tube plate and an outlet opening in its bottom.

De préférence, l'ouverture d'alimentation est annulaire et disposée au bas de la fenêtre de sortie par laquelle le métal alcalin liquide primaire est évacué au-dessus de la plaque tubulaire.Preferably, the feed opening is annular and disposed at the bottom of the outlet window through which the primary liquid alkali metal is discharged above the tube plate.

Il est décrit.ci-après, à titre d'exemple et en référence à la figure du dessin annexé, un dispositif de réduction des contraintes thermiques selon l'invention.It is described below, by way of example and with reference to the figure of the appended drawing, a device for reducing thermal stresses according to the invention.

La figure représente la partie inférieure d'un échangeur entre sodium primaire issu d'un réacteur nucléaire à neutrons rapides et sodium secondaire destiné à transmettre la chaleur à un circuit de production de vapeur d'.eau surchauffée sous pression. 1 The figure shows the lower part of an exchanger between primary sodium from a fast neutron nuclear reactor and secondary sodium intended to transmit heat to a circuit for producing steam of superheated water under pressure. 1

. La virole externe 1, dans laquelle le sodium primaire circule vers le bas, entoure un faisceau tubulaire annulaire 2, dans les tubes duquel le sodium secondaire circule vers le haut. Ce dernier est introduit par le conduit axial 3 à double enveloppe dans la chambre 4 d'alimentation des tubes, au-dessous de la plaque tubulaire 5. Cette chambre 4 comporte un fond 6 en forme de calotte sphérique. Le fond est entouré de deux tôles parallèles 10, 11 délimitant un intervalle 12 formant écran thermique. Cet intervalle est alimenté par une ouverture annulaire 13 en sodium primaire sortant du faisceau tubulaire dans le sens des flèches 14 entre la périphérie de la plaque tubulaire 5 et la tôle 11. L'extrémité supérieure de cette dernière délimite le rebord inférieur des fenêtres de sortie du sodium primaire, ces fenêtres étant formées juste au-dessus de la plaque tubulaire 5 pour évacuer la majeure partie.du fluide primaire comme l'indiquent les flèches sur la figure. Après avoir circulé entre les tôles 10, 11 la partie du sodium primaire prélevée par l'ouverture 13 sort par. l'ouverture axiale 15 formée dans le fond de la tôle 11 pour sortir selon l'axe de l'échangeur comme l'indiquent les flèches 16. Ce circuit de sodium primaire, dont la particularité est de prélever du sodium dont la température reste très proche aussi bien en régime permanent qu'en régime transitoire rapide de la température de sodium froid d'entrée secondaire, permet donc de réduire :

  • - le gradient thermique dans l'épaisseur du fond au niveau de la liaison fond-plaque ;
  • - et l'écart des températures entre le fond et la plaque tubulaire inférieure ;

consécutifs à l'écart de température entre le sodium secondaire froid baignant la partie intérieure du fond puis traversant la plaque, et le sodium primaire plus chaud baignant la partie extérieure du fond.. The outer shell 1, in which the primary sodium flows downward, surrounds an annular tubular bundle 2, in the tubes of which the secondary sodium flows upward. The latter is introduced through the axial conduit 3 with a double envelope into the chamber 4 for supplying the tubes, below the tubular plate 5. This chamber 4 has a bottom 6 in the form of a spherical cap. The bottom is surrounded by two parallel sheets 10, 1 1 delimiting a gap 12 forming a heat shield. This interval is supplied by an annular opening 13 in primary sodium leaving the tube bundle in the direction of the arrows 14 between the periphery of the tube plate 5 and the sheet 11. The upper end of the latter defines the lower edge of the primary sodium outlet windows, these windows being formed just above the tube plate 5 to evacuate most of the primary fluid as indicated by the arrows in the figure. After having circulated between the sheets 10, 11, the part of the primary sodium withdrawn through the opening 13 leaves through. the axial opening 15 formed in the bottom of the sheet 11 to exit along the axis of the exchanger as indicated by the arrows 16. This primary sodium circuit, the particularity of which is to take sodium, the temperature of which remains very close as well in permanent mode as in rapid transient mode of the cold sodium temperature of secondary entry, thus makes it possible to reduce:
  • - the thermal gradient in the thickness of the bottom at the bottom-plate connection;
  • - and the temperature difference between the bottom and the lower tube plate;

consecutive to the temperature difference between the cold secondary sodium bathing the interior part of the bottom then crossing the plate, and the hotter primary sodium bathing the exterior part of the bottom.

Ce'dispositif assure une protection thermique efficace aussi bien en régime permanent qu'en régimes transitoires rapides côté primaire et côté secondaire, ce qui ne serait pas le cas pour un écran de sodium statique.This device provides effective thermal protection in both permanent and rapid transient conditions on the primary and secondary sides, which would not be the case for a static sodium screen.

Bien que le dispositif qui vient d'être décrit ci-dessus en référence à la figure paraisse la forme de réalisation préférable de l'invention, on comprendra que diverses modifications peuvent lui être apportées sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, certains de ses organes pouvant être remplacés par d'autres qui joueraient un rôle technique analogue.Although the device which has just been described above with reference to the figure appears to be the preferable embodiment of the invention, it will be understood that various modifications can be made to it without departing from the scope of the invention, some of its organs which can be replaced by others which would play a similar technical role.
