These are the pipework 174, the lower inlet manifold 170, the central manifold 14, including its intermediate sections 84 and lower 116, the axial outlet manifolds 20, the outlet chamber 24, and the cuffs 140. and 142 connecting the outlet chamber 24 to the outlets 10 of the secondary fluid.
- the enclosure 2 has a total height of about 27 m, and a diameter of about 7 m.
- the cylindrical envelope 98 has a diameter of about 6300 mm.
- Each exchanger 12 has an axial height of about 4800 mm, a radial depth of about 1300 mm, and a circumferential width of about 560 mm.
- Each module 56 has a height of about 600 mm.
- the diameter of the central collector 14 is about 2800 mm. It is determined so that the inner sheets 80 delimiting the axial collectors 18 and 20 have a circumferential developed length and a sufficient flexibility to recover the deformations imposed in a plane perpendicular to the X axis by the exchangers 12.
- the radial depth of the annular collector 16 is about 500 mm. It is determined so that an operator can slip inside the annular collector 16, so as to perform checks and / or repairs on the outer face of the exchangers 12.
- the secondary fluid inlets 8 have passage diameters of 850 mm minimum and the outputs 10 of the secondary fluid have passage diameters of 1 m minimum.
- the assembly 1 is dimensioned for example for a pressure of about 50 bars of the primary fluid, a flow rate of about 200 kg / s of the primary fluid, a flow rate of about 600 kg / s of the secondary fluid, and a difference of pressure between the primary and secondary fluids of about 5 bar in normal operation.
- the primary fluid enters the assembly 1 through the inlet 4, passes into the pipe 174, into the lower inlet manifold 170 and into the central manifold 14. It is distributed from this central manifold 14 to the various exchangers 12 distributed around the central collector, which it passes radially to the annular collector 16, yielding part of its heat to the secondary fluid.
- the primary fluid then flows down the annular collector 16, its lower section 86, passes through the apertures of the perforated ferrule 122, then flows around the lower section 116 of the central collector 14, and then enters the lower collector 170 and the lower collector 172.
- the primary fluid then passes through the openings 186 of the collar 180, is sucked by the fan 28 and discharged radially down the tank 30. It then passes through the openings 190 of the ferrule frustoconical 188 and out of the assembly 1 by the outlet 6 formed around the inlet 4.
- the secondary fluid enters the assembly 1 through the inlets 8, flows through the cuffs 158 and 160 to the inlet chamber 22, and is distributed, from the inlet chamber 22, in the different col- axial input readers 18.
- the secondary fluid passes through the exchangers 12 circumferentially and is collected in the axial outlet manifolds 20. It follows the collectors 20 axially to the outlet chamber 24, and is then distributed from the chamber 24 in the different outlets 10.
- the lid 34 of the external enclosure 2 is first removed. Then the operator opens the hatch 92 and gains the inspection channel 88. If the repair is to be carried out on one side of a 12-way exchanger to an axial outlet channel 20, the operator passes through the opening 163 ( Figure 2), enters the outlet chamber 24, and descends into the appropriate axial outlet manifold from the chamber 24.
- the operator enters the annular manifold 16 from the chamber 24, via the axial outlet channel 20 having a manhole, and performs the repair to from the collector 16.
- the operator opens the hatch 90 and passes from the inspection channel 88 to the central collector 14. It performs the repair from the central collector 14.
- a maintenance cell 200 (FIG.
- the two cells communicate via an opening 202 closed by a mobile isolation trap 203 arranged above the assembly 1.
- a sealing ring 204 is placed around the upper part of the assembly 1. Seals ensure the seal between the ring 204 and the flange 44 of the tank 30, on the one hand, and between the ring 204 and the peripheral edge of the flap 202.
- a vinyl sock 206 is disposed above the sealing ring 204, and is suspended from the lifter of the bridge 201 of the cell 200.
- the cover 34 of the enclosure 2 is first removed by means of the bridge 201.
- the enclosure 2 is then isolated from the maintenance cell 200 by putting in place the trap 203 during the evacuation of the cover 34.
- replacement of the vinyl sleeve 206 and opening of the hatch 203 the operators enter the outlet chamber 24 through the hatch 92 and the opening 163. They remove the insulation blocks 156 protecting the hinges 140 and 142 then dismantle the screws 146 and 150 using suitable tools.
- the cuffs 140 and 142 have been released, the operators pull these cuffs (with specific tools) inside the outlet chamber 24. They thus proceed for the four secondary fluid outlets 10.
- the operators then gain the inlet chamber 22 through the hatches 90 and 164. They release the cuffs 158 and 160 connecting the secondary fluid inlets 8 to the inlet chamber 22, and pull these cuffs (with specific tools) inside the room. They then leave the assembly 1.
- the crane of the bridge 201 then mates with the mushroom 102 of the subassembly 94. This subassembly is then lifted by raising the rudder of the bridge 201, out of the tank 30 and lifted through the hatch 202 to the cell 200. It is then inside the vinyl sock 206, isolation of the enclosure 1 by closing the hatch of 202.
- the overhead crane then moves inside of the maintenance cell 200, to come and deposit the subassembly 94 in a suitable receiving stool. The heavy maintenance operations are performed in this cell 200.
- the replacement of subassembly 94 inside the tank 30 is done according to a procedure exactly opposite to that just described above.
- the subassembly 94 must be guided in rotation about the X axis when it is put back in place, so that the indexing keys 130 engage in the appropriate grooves 132.
- the maintenance cell 200 may be common to several sets 1, serving the same nuclear reactor, or serving several different nuclear reactors.
- the set described above has many advantages.
- the axial manifolds 18 and 20 open into the inlet and outlet chambers 22 and 24 and are not mechanically connected directly to the inputs and outputs 8 and 10 of the secondary fluid.
- This configuration is favorable vis-à-vis the differential expansions between the outlets 8 and 10 connected to the tank and the chambers 22 and 24 belonging to the subset of the exchanger 94 thus significantly limiting the thermomechanical stresses of these links.
- the arrangement of the exchangers 12 and the axial inlet and outlet manifolds 18 and 20 makes it possible to give these collectors 18 and 20 a large passage section.
- the axial circulation velocity of the secondary fluid along these collectors is for example between 10 and 20 m / s. In other exchanger concepts, these speeds reached 60 m / s. These reduced speeds are favorable for maintaining a hydraulic balance between the inputs and the outputs 64 and 66 of the secondary fluid of each module 56, in normal operation. These reduced speeds also allow a distribution of the uniform secondary fluid to the different modules 56 stacked along the same axial collector 18, and are favorable, from a thermo-hydraulic point of view, in transient operation. The overall efficiency of the exchangers 12 is improved.
- thermomechanical behavior of the collectors is also particularly favorable.
- the axial collectors 18 and 20 are delimited by inner circumferential plates 80 and outer 82 flexible, easily deformed under the effect of the constraints imposed by the exchangers 12.
- the exchangers 12 are in fact high rigidity blocks compared to the plates 80 and 82, which impose their deformation to these sheets.
- the sheets 80 and 82 are thin shells, large radii of curvature, which gives them great flexibility.
- the entry and exit chambers 22 and 24 are large in size and not internally partitioned. As a result, the inlet chamber allows a distribution of the uniform secondary fluid in the different axial inlet manifolds 18. Moreover, because of their large passage sections, these chambers offer little resistance to the circulation of the secondary fluid. . They also make it easy to access the inputs 8 and the outputs 10, and thus to easily and quickly disconnect the cuffs 140, 142, 158 and 160 of the inputs 8 and the outputs 10.
- the fact that the chambers are devoid of internal partitioning makes it possible to arrange the inlets 8 and the outlets 10 on one and the same side of the enclosure 2. It is thus possible to arrange the assembly 1 close to a wall of the cell 97, the inlet and outlet pipes of the secondary fluid extending all opposite the wall.
- the subassembly 94 which contains all the exchangers as well as the main collectors for the circulation of the primary and secondary fluids, can be withdrawn in one piece from the outer enclosure 2. This operation is carried out particularly simple and convenient, using the bridge of the maintenance cell located above the heat exchanger assembly 1, after evacuation of the cover 34 and retraction of the sleeves 40 and 42 inside the chambers of input 22 and output 24. The retraction of cuffs 40 and 42 is achieved using tools adapted quickly and easily, so that the doses integrated by the operators are low. Once the cuffs 140 and 142 disassembled, the extraction of the subset 94 and reintroduction into the chamber 2 is by simple disengagement and interlocking.
- the lower manifolds 170 and 172 have flanges 176 of a shape adapted to guide the lower portion of the subassembly 94 when it is put back in place.
- the sealed connection of the central collector 14 and the annular collector 16 with the lower collectors 170 and 172 is by simple interlocking in a vertical direction.
- the heavy maintenance operations on the exchangers 12 are conveniently carried out in a special maintenance cell equipped with the appropriate equipment.
- each exchanger 12 The modules 56 constituting each exchanger 12 are welded to each other along the edges delimiting, upwards and downwards, the inner, outer and radial faces of these modules.
- the fillet welds are eliminated because of the presence of the bars 68 arranged in the machined angles of the modules 56.
- the inner and outer circumferential plates 80 and 82 are welded to the flanges 72 of the bars 68. This weld is located at a distance from the modules 56 and can be conveniently controlled by radiography.
- the critical zone C (see FIGS. 9A and 9B) in which the thermomechanical stresses are maximum is situated at the junction between the wing 72 and the main part 70 of the bar 68, and therefore extends into the mass of the bar 68. and not at the level of the weld. Finally, the wing 72 is connected to the radial faces of the modules 56 by a radius of curvature (R) optimized according to the thermomechanical stresses in the critical zone C.
- the heat exchange assembly described above can have multiple variants.
- the exchangers 12 may not be plate type, but for example be heat exchangers tube and calender.
- the fan 28 may not be arranged on the bottom of the tank 30, but rather be fixed to the cover 34. It is in this case necessary to modify the circulation of the primary fluid leaving the heat exchangers 12.
- the annular collector 16 is extended upwardly to the fan 28 and is partitioned to define an upward portion channeling the primary fluid to the blower 28 and a downward portion channeling the primary fluid from the blower 28 to the outlet 6.
- the evacuation of the subassembly 94 is more complex in this case, since it is necessary to disassemble the fan 28 before removing the cover 34 from the enclosure 2.
- the heat exchange assembly may comprise more or fewer than eight heat exchangers 12.
- the secondary fluid inlets 8 may be disposed at the top of the upper shell 36, the secondary fluid outlets 10 being, in this case, disposed below the heat exchangers 12.
- the primary fluid can flow from the inlet 4 to the heat exchangers 12 in the annular manifold 16, and return from the exchangers to the outlet 6 through the central manifold.
- the primary fluid can flow from the inlet chamber 22 through the axial channels 18 and 20 to the outlet chamber 24, the secondary fluid circulating, in this case, in the central collector 14 and in the annular collector 16.
- the primary fluid may not be substantially pure helium, but may be a mixture of helium and nitrogen.
- the primary fluid may also comprise mainly water.
- the secondary fluid may be substantially pure helium or a mixture of helium and nitrogen (for example 20% helium and 80% nitrogen or 40% helium and 60% nitrogen).
- the secondary fluid may also be mainly water, and vaporized in the heat exchange assembly. In this case, the heat exchange assembly acts as a steam generator.
- the heat exchange assembly 1 described above has several original aspects that can be protected independently of one another.
- the assembly 1 comprises a mechanical subassembly extractable in one piece such as 94, while the axial manifolds 18 and 20 are connected to the inputs 8 and 10 outlets by connecting pipes and not by means of chambers such as 22 and 24.
- the terminal parts of the connecting pipes are capable of being disassembled manually inputs and outputs 8 and 10, for example from the free space between the cover 34 and the exchangers 12, and from the free space between the frustoconical casing 100 and the exchangers 12. These end parts are retracted inside the connection pipes, or completely separated from them and outputs manually from the enclosure 2 by the operators.
- the assembly 1 comprises exchangers 12 provided with bars 68 such as those described above while the axial collectors 18 and 20 are not connected to the inputs 8 and outputs 10 by chambers 22 and 24 and / or that the assembly 1 does not include a removable subassembly 94.
