Description

  The present invention relates to a nuclear power plant having a natural circulation boiling water reactor.

  A nuclear power plant having a boiling water reactor has a control rod drive system and a reactor coolant purification system (hereinafter referred to as CUW system).

  The control rod drive system includes a control rod drive mechanism and a control rod drive hydraulic system. The control rod drive mechanism is installed below the pressure vessel that houses the core, and the control rod is inserted into or extracted from the core, and the control rod drive hydraulic system operates the control rod drive mechanism. When the control rod drive mechanism is electrically driven, the control rod drive hydraulic system supplies the control rod drive mechanism with a line for supplying filling water to be used for rapid insertion of the control rod during an emergency stop (scram), and the control rod drive A line is provided for supplying purge water acting as cooling water to the control rod drive mechanism and preventing charging of dust into the mechanism, and filling water and purge water are supplied by a control rod drive water pump. In addition, when the control rod drive mechanism is a hydraulic drive type, in addition to the above-described filling water supply line and purge water supply line, the control rod is driven to supply drive water for controlling the reaction of the core to the control rod drive mechanism. It has a line to do.

  The main purpose of the CUW system is to maintain the water quality of the reactor coolant, and the reactor water taken from the reactor pressure vessel is circulated using a CUW pump and purified by a filtration demineralizer. It has a function to remove corrosion products, fission products, soluble inorganic substances, etc. in the coolant at the time of shutdown and shutdown, and a reactor water level control function when the water supply control equipment does not function at the time of reactor start-up.

  On the other hand, boiling water reactors have a natural circulation type that eliminates the internal pump. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-268077 discloses that the control rod for scram is held above the core during normal operation. However, a configuration has been proposed in which the control rod is inserted into the core mainly from the top of the core by the action of gravity during scram.

  When this configuration is adopted, a powerful hydraulic pressure control unit for supplying the filling water for the scrum, which was provided for rapidly inserting the control rod from below the core at the time of scram, is no longer necessary, and the control rod drive hydraulic system Can be simplified. Further, since it is a natural circulation type, it is not necessary to supply purge water to the internal pump.

JP-A-10-268077

  As described above, a nuclear power plant equipped with a conventional natural circulation reactor eliminates the need for a powerful water pressure control unit for supplying the filling water during scram, and simplifies the control rod drive hydraulic system. The system can be configured. However, the entire nuclear power plant has a CUW system separately from the control rod hydraulic system, and no further simplification has been studied.

  In addition to maintaining and improving reliability in nuclear power plants, it is necessary to improve competitiveness by reducing construction costs. In addition, simplification of the nuclear power plant to reduce construction costs reduces the amount of dynamic equipment, leading to less maintenance work and less waste. From this point of view, it is advantageous if a nuclear power plant equipped with a natural circulation reactor can reduce the construction cost and the amount of dynamic equipment by using part of the equipment.

  An object of the present invention is to improve the reliability of a nuclear power plant by reducing dynamic equipment while maintaining the functions of a control rod hydraulic system and a CUW system in a nuclear power plant equipped with a natural circulation reactor. It is to provide a control rod water pressure supply system for a nuclear power plant that can reduce the amount of work and waste to reduce the construction and maintenance cost of the nuclear power plant.

  Thus, by connecting the control rod water pressure system to the downstream side of the CUW system pump, it becomes possible to supply the purge water necessary for the function of the control rod drive mechanism by the CUW system pump. System and CUW system functions can be maintained. In addition, the discharge of pressurized water in the two types of systems, the CUW system and the control rod hydraulic system, is performed with a single CUW system pump, thereby reducing dynamic equipment and improving the reliability of the nuclear power plant. Furthermore, since the amount of dynamic equipment is reduced, the number of periodic inspection objects is reduced, maintenance work can be reduced, and the amount of waste generated due to equipment replacement is also reduced, thereby reducing the construction and maintenance costs of the nuclear power plant.

  (2) In the above (1), preferably, the control rod drive mechanism is a control rod drive mechanism that is electrically driven, and the first water pressure line is purged water to the control rod drive mechanism by the reactor purification system pump. Shall be supplied.

  As a result, while maintaining the functions of the control rod hydraulic system and the CUW system in a nuclear plant having an electrically driven control rod drive mechanism, the dynamic equipment is reduced to improve the reliability of the nuclear plant, and maintenance work is performed.・ Reduce the amount of waste and reduce the construction and maintenance costs of nuclear power plants.

  (3) In the above (1), preferably, the control rod drive mechanism is a control rod drive mechanism driven by water pressure, and the control rod water pressure system further supplies a second water pressure for supplying drive water to the control rod drive mechanism. It shall have a line.

  As a result, even in a nuclear plant having a control rod drive mechanism driven by water pressure, while maintaining the functions of the control rod hydraulic system and the CUW system, the dynamic equipment is reduced and the reliability of the nuclear plant is improved. The amount of work and waste can be reduced to reduce the construction and maintenance costs of the nuclear power plant.

  According to the present invention, in a natural circulation boiling water nuclear power plant, the amount of equipment constituting the plant can be reduced, and the construction and maintenance cost of the nuclear power plant can be reduced.

Yes.

  The CUW system 100 includes a regenerative heat exchanger 3 that heats and cools the reactor coolant, a non-regenerative heat exchanger 4 that cools the reactor coolant, and a reactor coolant purification system pump (hereinafter referred to as a CUW system pump). 5, a booster pump 6, and a filtration desalination device 7 are provided. The CUW system 100 first takes in reactor water as a reactor coolant from the residual heat removal system suction line 28 and the bottom drain suction line 29 connected to the reactor pressure vessel 2, and then uses this reactor coolant as a reactor coolant. After cooling to a temperature suitable for the filtration and desalination apparatus 7 by the regenerative heat exchanger 3 and the non-regenerative heat exchanger 4, the pressure is increased by the CUW pump 5, and insoluble and soluble impurities are removed by the filtration and desalination apparatus 7. Remove. The outlet side of the CUW reactor coolant is connected to the water supply system line 34 and the head spray line 35 connected to the reactor pressure vessel 2 via the regenerative heat exchanger 3, and the purified reactor The coolant is normally heated by the regenerative heat exchanger 3 and then reduced into the reactor pressure vessel 2 by the water supply system line 34. Further, the CUW system 100 has a branch point 30 on the downstream side of the CUW system pump 5, and the control rod hydraulic system 200 is connected to the branch point 30 (that is, on the downstream side of the CUW pump 5) via the hydraulic pressure line 36. The purified reactor coolant is also supplied to the control rod hydraulic system 200.

  The control rod water pressure system 200 includes a flow meter 40 provided in the water pressure line 36, a flow rate adjusting valve 9 for adjusting the flow rate by the flow meter 40, and a purge water supply line 16 connected to the downstream side of the flow rate adjusting valve 9. A hydraulic pressure control unit (HCU) 400 connected downstream of the purge water supply line 16, a hydraulic pressure line 41a, and a hydraulic pressure line 42a. The hydraulic pressure control unit 400 is connected via the hydraulic pressure line 41a and the hydraulic pressure line 42a. Connected to the control rod drive mechanism 11, purge water is supplied to the control rod drive mechanism 11. In the figure, only two control rod drive mechanisms are shown for simplification, but there are a plurality of other control rod drive mechanisms, and the purge water supply line 16 is connected to each other via each hydraulic pressure control unit. It is also connected to a control rod drive mechanism, and purge water is supplied to each of them (the same applies to other figures). This purge water acts as a cooling water that protects the control rod drive mechanism 11 from heat and the purpose of preventing foreign matter from entering the bottom of the furnace. The water pressure line 36 has a branch point 31 on the downstream side of the branch point 30, and the water pressure line 8 a is connected to the branch point 31. The water pressure line 8a supplies purge water to the CUW pump 5, and the booster pump 6 provided in the water pressure line 8a boosts the purge water when the supply pressure of the purge water to the CUW pump 5 is insufficient. Thus, a predetermined pressure is ensured.

  Next, the effects of the present embodiment will be described while explaining the conventional control rod drive hydraulic system and CUW system.

  First, a control rod drive hydraulic system and a CUW system in a nuclear power plant having a conventional improved boiling water reactor will be described with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 2 is a system schematic diagram of the control rod drive hydraulic system. In the figure, the same parts as those in FIG.

  In FIG. 2, a nuclear reactor 80 is an improved boiling water nuclear reactor having an internal pump (not shown), and the cooling water in the reactor is circulated by the internal pump. An electrically driven control rod drive mechanism 11 </ b> A is provided below the nuclear reactor 80. A control rod drive hydraulic system 210 is provided for the control rod drive mechanism 11A.

  The control rod driving hydraulic system 210 supplies condensate to the control rod driving mechanism 11 as scram filling water and cooling purge water. The control rod driving water heater 18, the suction filter 19, filling water and There are a control rod drive water pump 20 for boosting the purge water, a drive water filter 21, a flow rate control valve 9, a water pressure control unit 410, a filling water supply line 26 to each water pressure control unit, a purge water supply line 16, and a water pressure line 8b. is doing. The filling water supply line 26 and the purge water supply line 16 are connected to an electrically driven control rod drive mechanism 11A via a water pressure control unit 410.

  The water pressure control unit 410 includes an accumulator 22, a scram solenoid valve 23, and a scram inlet valve 24. During normal operation, the scram inlet valve 24 is closed, and purge water is supplied to the control rod drive mechanism 11A. The scram inlet valve 24 is opened by the valve 23, the filling water pressurized by the accumulator 22 is supplied to the control rod drive mechanism 11A, and the control rod 50 is rapidly inserted.

  In the control rod drive hydraulic system 210 configured as described above, the accumulator 22, the scram solenoid valve 23, the scram inlet valve 23, and the like of the water pressure control unit 410 are powerful against the gravity from below the core during scram. This is an essential configuration for supplying high-pressure filling water to be inserted into the core with a sufficient force. The control rod drive water pump 20 also boosts the filling water supplied to the water pressure control unit 410, and is an essential configuration for supplying high-pressure filling water for driving the control rod during scram. For this reason, it has been difficult to simplify the configuration of the nuclear power plant.

  FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of a CUW system. In the figure, the same reference numerals are given to the same parts as those in the previous figures.

  In FIG. 3, the reactor 80 is an improved boiling water reactor as in FIG. 2, and the CUW system 110 does not have the branch point 30 downstream of the CUW system pump 5. After the reactor coolant taken from 2 is purified by the filter desalting apparatus 7, it is simply reduced to the core via the regenerative heat exchanger 3.

  As described above, the nuclear power plant having the improved boiling water reactor is configured to include the CUW system 110 in addition to the control rod drive hydraulic system 210.

  Next, a control rod drive hydraulic system in a nuclear power plant having a conventional natural circulation type boiling water reactor will be described.

  Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-268077 discloses a technology in which a control rod for scram is held above the core in a natural circulation boiling water reactor without an internal pump, and the control rod is inserted by gravity drop during scram. Is described. In this nuclear power plant, the accumulator, scram solenoid valve, scram in the water pressure control unit, which was essential for rapid insertion of the control rod during scram, was achieved in this nuclear power plant by the control rod drive hydraulic system of the improved boiling water reactor. Equipment such as an inlet valve can be eliminated, and the control rod drive hydraulic system can be simplified. However, even in this case, it is necessary to provide a CUW system separately from the control rod hydraulic system as in the case of a plant having an improved boiling water reactor.

  In a nuclear power plant equipped with a natural circulation boiling water reactor in this way, equipment for supplying high-pressure filling water necessary for scram from the control rod drive hydraulic system 210 is eliminated, and the control rod drive hydraulic system is simplified. However, no further simplification has been considered.

  In contrast to such prior art, the present invention further simplifies the control rod water pressure supply system in a nuclear power plant equipped with a natural circulation boiling water reactor. For this purpose, the present invention has focused on the following points.

  In a natural circulation boiling water reactor in which control rods can be inserted by gravity drop during scram, a powerful water pressure control unit that inserts control rods 50 into the core against gravity is unnecessary. The control rod drive water pump 20 for supplying high-pressure water necessary for rapid insertion is not required for the control rod water pressure supply system. Further, since the discharge pressure of the CUW pump 5 is higher than the reactor pressure of the reactor during normal operation, it is possible to ensure a sufficient pressure for supplying purge water. Furthermore, by using the CUW system, it becomes possible to supply the clean reactor water purified by the filtration and desalination apparatus 7 to the control rod drive mechanism 11, thereby reducing the risk of equipment failure due to dust biting or the like. Can be made. Further, since the CUW pump 5 is continuously driven even when the reactor is stopped, it is possible to continue supplying purge water even when the reactor is stopped. Further, both the CUW system and the control rod water pressure system function by circulating the reactor water, and even if they are connected, a nuclear power plant can be configured without breaking the balance of the reactor water amount.

  In the present embodiment, based on the above knowledge, a branch point 30 is provided downstream of the CUW pump 5 of the CUW system 100, a control rod hydraulic system 200 having a purge water supply line 16 is connected to the branch point 30, and the CUW system The pump 5 is also used as a purge water supply pump, and the reactor water purified by the filtration and desalination apparatus 7 of the CUW system 100 is supplied as purge water.

  According to the present embodiment configured as described above, it becomes possible to eliminate the dedicated control rod drive water pump 20 and the suction filter 19 in the control rod hydraulic system from the nuclear power plant. Miniaturization can be realized. Thereby, it is possible to reduce the construction and maintenance costs of the nuclear plant while maintaining the reliability of the nuclear plant.

  Moreover, since the amount of dynamic equipment such as the control rod drive water pump 20 is reduced from the nuclear power plant, the number of periodic inspection objects is reduced, and the maintenance work can be reduced. Furthermore, similarly, since the amount of waste generated by equipment replacement or the like is reduced, the maintenance cost of the nuclear power plant can be further reduced.

  In addition, by connecting the control rod hydraulic system 200 to the CUW system 100, it becomes possible to supply clean reactor water purified by the filtration desalination apparatus 7 to the control rod drive mechanism 11 as purge water, and It is also possible to reduce the risk of equipment failure due to biting or the like. In addition, since the CUW pump 5 continues to be driven even when the reactor is shut down, purge water can be supplied to the control rod drive mechanism 11 even when the reactor is shut down, thereby further reducing the risk of equipment failure. It is possible to reduce the maintenance cost of the nuclear power plant.

  Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 4 is a schematic view showing a control rod water pressure supply system of a nuclear power plant having a natural circulation type boiling water reactor according to the second embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, the same reference numerals are given to the same parts as those in the previous figures.

  In FIG. 4, the nuclear power plant includes a natural circulation nuclear reactor 1A and a control rod water pressure supply system 70A. The control rod water pressure supply system 70A includes a reactor coolant purification system 100 and a control rod water pressure system 300. ing.

The control rod drive mechanism 12 is hydraulically driven, and is driven by the drive water supplied from the control rod hydraulic system 300 during normal driving, and urgently inserts the control rod by gravity drop during scram as in the first embodiment. It has a configuration.

  As in the first embodiment, the CUW system 100 has a branch point 30 on the downstream side of the CUW system pump 5, and the branch point 30 (that is, on the downstream side of the CUW pump 5) via a hydraulic line 36. The control rod water pressure system 300 is connected to supply the purified reactor coolant to the control rod water pressure system 300.

  The control rod water pressure system 300 includes a flow meter 40 provided in the water pressure line 36, a flow rate adjusting valve 9 that adjusts the flow rate of driving water by the flow meter 40, and a water pressure connected to the downstream side of the flow rate adjusting valve 9. A line 38, a driving water pressure adjusting valve 13 for adjusting the pressure of the purge water connected downstream of the water pressure line 38, a flow rate stabilizing valve 14 for ensuring the driving water pressure, a driving water pressure adjusting valve 13, A water pressure line 39 connected to the downstream side of the flow stabilization valve 14, a driving water supply line 10 connected to a branch point 32 provided in the water pressure line 38, and a branch point 33 provided in the water pressure line 39.

The water pressure control unit 400A is connected to the control rod drive mechanism 12 via the water pressure line 41b and the water pressure line 42b, and supplies drive water and purge water to the control rod drive mechanism 12. The water pressure control unit 400A has normal drive switching valves 15a to 15d, and these normal drive switching valves 15a to 15d switch the direction of the driving water supplied to the control rod drive mechanism 12 to control the control rod 50. Control the driving direction. The water pressure line 36 has a branch point 31 as in the first embodiment, and a water pressure line 8 a for supplying purge water to the CUW pump 5 is connected to the branch point 31. A booster pump 6 is provided in the water pressure line 8a.

  The reactor coolant pressurized by the CUW system pump 5 and supplied from the CUW system 100 to the control rod hydraulic system 300 is measured for flow rate by the flow meter 40 and adjusted to an appropriate flow rate by the flow rate control valve 9. A part is branched at the branch point 32 of the water pressure line 38 and supplied as drive water to the water pressure control unit 400A by the drive water supply line 10. The driving water supplied to the water pressure control unit 400A is appropriately switched in direction by the normal drive switching valves 15a to 15d to drive the control rod. For example, when water is supplied to the water pressure line 42b, the normal drive switching valves 15a and 15d are opened and the normal drive switching valves 15b and 15c are closed. On the other hand, when water is supplied to the water pressure line 41b, the normal drive switching valve is used. 15b and 15c are opened, and the normal drive switching valves 15a and 15d are closed.

  On the other hand, the reactor coolant that has passed through the branch point 32 is depressurized to an appropriate pressure by the pressure control valve 13 and then supplied to the water pressure control unit 400A by the purge water supply line 16 and is supplied to the control rod drive mechanism 12 by the purge water. Supplied as The flow rate stabilization valve 14 prevents a decrease in driving pressure caused by opening / closing of the normal driving switching valves 15a to 15d during normal driving by distributing a part of purge water as driving water by opening / closing the valve, It functions to ensure the driving pressure.
