DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for repairing a structure and equipment constituting the interior of a reactor pressure vessel during service equipment of a nuclear power plant, and more particularly to a method for repairing a neutron-irradiated and cracked structure. to structures and equipment of occurring defects, to allow reliable repairs relates soundness after repair relates to repair how to bond the structure to cover the plate.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art There is a concern that cracks and aging defects such as stress corrosion cracking may occur in structures and equipment inside a reactor pressure vessel in an environment such as high temperature and high pressure water. Stress corrosion cracking is caused by superposition of deterioration factors such as local composition change of the material itself, stress factors of tensile residual stress applied to the structure by welding, etc., and corrosion environment factors in high temperature and high pressure water. , And cracks grow. If this crack penetrates the above-mentioned structure and equipment, it may lead to a serious accident of the above-mentioned nuclear power plant, and a repair technique for preventing crack penetration of the cracked structure is required.

As a repair technique for preventing such crack penetration, as shown in FIG. 33 (a), an area including a crack-like defect 1 is covered with a plate material 3, and an edge of the plate material 3 and the structure 2 are formed. A method is known in which the defect 1 is isolated from a corrosive environment to prevent the growth of a crack by welding the fillet using the heat input by the arc discharge 6 while adding a filler material 5.

[0004] However, a structure irradiated with neutrons generates He by transmutation of a material constituent element, and contains the generated He inside. In the case where such a material containing He is covered with a plate material as described above and the edge of the plate material and the structure are spot-welded, in a conventional technique such as welding by arc discharge or the like, a filler material is used. In addition, since a heat input amount enough to melt a part of the base material and the plate material is inevitably supplied, as shown in FIGS. 18 to 33, irradiation with neutrons having crack-like defects 1 was performed. When repair is performed on the structure 2 such that the plate 3 is welded to the structure 2 by spot welding, the heat-affected zone 8 on the structure side around the spot weld 7 at the repaired portion generates a new defect 9. There was a risk of becoming a department.

[0005] The above-mentioned problem arises, for example, in the case of austenitic stainless steels as described in Journal of Material Science Vol.
26 (1991), pp. 2063-2070, a material made of the above alloy containing generated He in a state where total neutrons of at least 1.0 × 10 ²⁰ n / m ² are irradiated cumulatively. On the other hand, when welding is performed by applying heat, the weld heat affected zone around the fusion zone is heated to a high temperature and activated by thermal activation.
The diffusion of e into the crystal grain boundaries is facilitated, and the He gas collected at the grain boundaries aggregates to form bubbles having a size of μm unit, so that the strength of the grain boundaries is reduced, and furthermore, after welding, It is based on the recognition that grain boundary cracks occur in the non-molten heat affected zone when a tensile stress accompanying solidification shrinkage is applied.

In the repairing of a structure having a crack-like defect, which is the object of the present invention, in the repairing method according to the prior art in which the plate is covered and the fillet is welded, the plate is brought into close contact with the structure. Heat energy is supplied while supplying filler wire in such a way as to be in contact with both sides of the edge side and the surface of the structure, and the filler wire and plate material are melted and welded to the edge side and the surface of the structure, so they join the structure The heat input may locally increase. Under such welding conditions, as described above, the heat-affected zone is heated to a high temperature and thermal activation facilitates diffusion of He to the crystal grain boundaries, and the heat-affected zone on the structure side causes a new problem. There was a risk of becoming a generation part.

[0007]

Desirable .

The inventors have found that the irradiation amount of all neutrons is 5.0 ×
For the material made of the above alloy in a state of 10 ²⁷ n / m ² or less,
In the construction where the holding time at the temperature causing activation of He is short, the diffusion of He in the non-molten heat-affected zone is suppressed, and it is found that cracks do not occur not only in the molten zone but also in the surrounding heat-affected zone, The present invention has been reached.

Here, as a construction method for joining the structure and the coated plate material, instead of the fillet welding work for melting the filler material to be added, while applying local pressure to the joint surface, physical means is used. According to the construction method in which a resistance is generated in the bonding surface and the relevant part is bonded by mechanical energy such as heat or plastic deformation generated by the generated resistance, by controlling the pressure to be applied and the time for generating the resistance, It is possible to shorten the holding time at the temperature that causes the activation of He described above, and it is possible to perform bonding without generating cracks.

Physical means for applying resistance in a state in which the joint surface is pressurized include generating an electric resistance in the contact surface by flowing an electric current, heating the joint with the generated resistance heat, joining the joint, and mechanical friction. The construction using resistance is mentioned.

First, the principle and operation of a method of joining by passing a current will be described below.

FIG. 28 is a schematic view showing a construction in which an electric current is applied to the structure and the covering plate material while applying a pressure to join them in a spot manner. The electrode A10 comes into contact with the covering plate 3 and the electrode B
11 is in contact with the surface of the structure 2, the two electrodes are electrically connected, and the current flowing between the electrode and the material is controlled by the transformer 12. In addition, a pressure applying mechanism 14 is provided for the electrode A10 in contact with the covering plate 3, so that pressure is locally applied to the contact surface between the plate 3 and the structure 2.
The covering plate 3 just below the electrode A10 by the pressure applying mechanism 14
When pressure is applied to the contact portion between the structure and the structure 2 and a current is applied under pressure, resistance heat is generated by the electric resistance of the contact portion, the coating plate and the structure are locally melted, and the current is stopped or The joint 15 is formed by solidification together with the release of the pressure. The resistance heating value generated here is represented by Q = ρ · j ² · t [J / m ³ ] ρ: specific resistance j: current density t: conduction time Under a constant pressurizing condition, when a large current is applied for a short time, the coating plate and the structure are locally melted to generate heat enough to form the joint 15. Bonding can be performed with a very short energization. In the application by such a short-time energization, the holding time of the temperature region where He is activated is extremely short in the heat-affected zone around the fusion zone, which contributes to He diffusion or bubble formation at grain boundaries. It is possible to perform joining without giving such a thermal effect to the base material.

Further, as shown in FIG. 29, by providing a mechanism 14 for applying pressure to both of the plurality of electrodes, it is possible to simultaneously join the contact surfaces immediately below the plurality of electrodes.

In the above-mentioned method of joining in a spot shape, after the joining at one location is completed, the electrodes are sequentially moved to carry out the joining, and as shown in FIG. Joined without gaps.

Further, as shown in FIG. 30, a continuous joint is easily formed by applying a pressure and applying a current while rotating using the rotating electrode 16 on the disk. In the case of this method, a continuous joint is easily formed by a method of continuously energizing. However, even in a method of intermittently repeating the energization, the joint 15 is continuously formed by controlling the energizing cycle and the construction speed. It is possible to form it.

Next, as an example of construction using mechanical frictional resistance, the principle and operation of a system in which mechanical vibration is applied to generate frictional resistance on the contact surfaces and join the contact surfaces will be described below. FIG. 31 shows construction using ultrasonic oscillation as a means for giving mechanical vibration. When a high-frequency current is applied to the vibrator 17 made of a magnetic material and a coil using the ultrasonic oscillator 18, the vibrator 17 vibrates due to the magnetostriction phenomenon. The generated vibration is increased in amplitude by the resonator 19, and the construction terminal 20 vibrates in the direction of the arrow due to the increased amplitude. Pressure applying mechanism 1 between covering plate 3 and structure 2
The joint surface pressed by 4 generates friction due to the vibration. The contact surface is heated by friction and at the same time undergoes plastic deformation. The plastically deformed surface is brought close to the distance at which the interatomic force acts due to the effect of atom transfer due to heating above the pressure and the recrystallization temperature, and bonds are formed to join the contact surfaces. As the construction conditions, the output and frequency of the ultrasonic wave, the amplified amplitude, the pressing force, etc. are factors,
By setting the working conditions so as not to be heated to a temperature higher than the solution temperature, it is possible to perform joining without causing the formation of bubbles at the grain boundaries of He described above. Also,
Since the construction time in this method is extremely short,
Even if heating to a temperature equal to or higher than the solution temperature partially occurs, bonding that hardly contributes to the formation of bubbles at the grain boundaries of He can be performed.

In the case of joining the covering plate and the structure, 1
After the completion of the joining work at each location, the covering plate is joined to the structure without gaps by sequentially moving the working terminals and performing the work. Further, similarly to the above-described construction by energization, a continuous welded portion can be formed by applying vibration while applying pressure while rotating using a construction terminal on a disk.

Next, a description will be given of the operation of the present invention in which the projections are provided on the covering plate and joined. FIG. 4A is a schematic diagram in which the covering plate 3 provided with the protrusion 21 is installed on the structure 2. As shown in FIGS. 28 to 31, the contact surface immediately below the electrode is pressurized by the pressurizing mechanism, but by using the protrusion 21 as the contact surface, the applied pressure is concentrated, and It is possible to prevent construction failure due to pressure dispersion of the construction. The same effect can be obtained even in the case of the above-described application of applying friction.

FIG. 4B shows the case where the projection 21 is provided on the side of the covering plate. When a thick covering plate is installed, the projection 21 is provided as a contact surface. It has the effect of concentrating pressure.

FIG. 4 (c) is a schematic view in which a concave notch 22 is provided on the structure side, and the covering plate provided with the above-mentioned protrusion is installed in combination with the notch. By using the notch 22 on the structure side and the projection 21 on the cover plate side as the contact surfaces, the applied pressure is concentrated and at the same time, the construction in which the cover plate 3 and the structure 2 are in close contact can be performed.

Here, the above-mentioned construction according to the present invention is based on the premise that pressure is locally applied to the contact surface between the covering plate and the structure. Therefore, when performing the construction in a light water reactor, in order to apply a constant pressure to the contact surface,
It is necessary to seal off the reaction force generated in the application direction in the opposite direction to the application direction. For example, in the construction on the inner surface of the pipe, etc., it is easy to make the opposite side of the construction concerned a pressure support portion, but for a complex-shaped structure in the furnace, in order to seal the reaction force, Means for providing a fulcrum for supporting the pressure applied to the contact surface in the furnace is required.
In the present invention, by using a furnace internal structure or equipment as a support portion, it is possible to use a means for sealing a reaction generated when pressure is applied. For example, in the construction on the inner surface of the shroud 44 of the in-furnace structure shown in FIG. 15, a support pillar 53 is introduced between the upper lattice plate 43 and the core support plate 45 of the in-furnace structure, and the upper lattice plate and the core support By using the pillars supported by the plate as the supporting portions, it is possible to seal off the reaction that occurs when applying pressure. Further, in the construction on the outer surface of the shroud 44 shown in FIG. 18, the support pillar is introduced between the pressure vessel 42 and the shroud 44, and the pillar supported by the inner surface of the pressure vessel 42 is used as a support part, so that the pressure is reduced. It is possible to seal off the reaction that occurs when imparting. Details of the construction will be described later in Examples.

Next, a description will be given of the operation of the above-mentioned joining after removing the oxide film of the structure according to the present invention. Since the internal structure of a light water reactor is located in water, an oxide film may be adhered during operation. If the above-described joining is performed with the oxide film adhered, the electric resistance or the frictional resistance becomes unstable, which may cause a poor construction. Therefore, when performing the above-described construction on the inner structure of the light water reactor, after removing the oxide film in the area including the contact surface of the structure with the coated plate by electric discharge machining or a grinder or emery, the coated plate is installed, It is desirable to perform the above-mentioned joining work. Further, when performing the above-mentioned joining work, it is desirable that the electric resistance or the frictional resistance of the joining surface is appropriately uniformized. In general, when the surface roughness of the contact surface is large, the electric resistance or frictional resistance increases, and bonding can be performed under conditions where the amount of electricity or vibration output is relatively small. It becomes uneven and may cause poor construction. Therefore, in the case of a structure made of stainless steel, a Ni-based alloy, or a low-alloy steel, which is an object of the present invention, the average surface roughness is set to 0.2 to 10 by the above-described means.
After finishing to μm, it is desirable to install a covering plate and perform the above-mentioned joining work.

In the case of performing the above-described joining work, FIG.
As shown in (a), a case where the outside of the joint portion has a gap structure may be considered. Since the gap portion 59 is in contact with the water environment, the gap portion 59 may become a crack generation site such as stress corrosion cracking under the condition that the water quality in the gap is deteriorated. In such a case, as shown in FIG.
By forming 0, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of cracks in the gap 59. For example, Pd
Alternatively, by using a composition containing 0.05 to 2.0 wt% of Pt, the water quality of the gap portion 59 is improved by the hydrogen adsorption effect of the above component, and the occurrence of stress corrosion cracking is prevented. The intermediate layer 60 can be formed by overlaying, spraying, inserting an insert material, or brazing. In the case where the intermediate layer 60 is formed in a furnace, the intermediate layer 60 is formed as a surface layer on the surface of the structure 2, and then the covering plate 3 is installed to perform the above-described joining. When the formation of the intermediate layer is performed outside the furnace, a method in which the intermediate layer 60 is formed on the side where the covering plate 3 is joined, and then the covering plate 3 is installed and the above-described joining is performed is preferable. .

In the case of performing the above-described joining work, FIG.
As shown in (1), the outer periphery of the gap may be metal-bonded to block the gap from reactor water. Irradiation of laser light or arc light with a low heat input is desirable for the formation of the metal bonding portion 61.

Further, when the above-mentioned joining work is performed, FIG.
As shown in (1), if a surface fusion portion is formed in a region including the joining surface of the structure, and then the above-described joining is performed, it is possible to further reduce the cracking susceptibility during the joining.
For forming the surface melting portion 62, it is desirable to irradiate a laser beam or an arc beam with a reduced heat input.

As described above, it is also possible to reduce the thickness of the covering plate 3 itself and join it. By reducing the thickness of the covering plate member 3, the energization described in the first to third embodiments and the mechanical vibration described in the fourth embodiment are stabilized, and a construction failure is prevented, so that the reliability of the construction part is further improved. .

In the present embodiment, the construction method described in the first embodiment is applied to a structure 2 having a thickness of 5 to 40 mm and a thickness of 0.5 mm.

This will be described below with reference to FIGS.

FIG. 20 (a) shows a cross section in which a coating plate is placed and joined after forming a sprayed layer on the portion where the covering plate is to be placed on the structure. SUS304 stainless steel structure 2 irradiated with all neutrons of 1.0 × 10 ²⁰ n / m ² or more and 5.0 × 10 ²⁷ n / m ² or less and having crack defects 1 On the other hand, a sprayed layer 63 having a thickness of about 50 to 200 μm is formed by means such as a plasma arc.

It is desirable that the range of 0.50% and the balance of Fe be desirable. However, depending on the material of the structure 2 or the covering plate material 3, the component may not be a stainless steel component, and may contain Pt or Pd.
For example, a brazing component may be used.

Next, the covering plate 3 made of SUS316L stainless steel is installed, and the joining work described in Examples 1 to 6 is performed.

FIG. 20B shows an enlarged cross section of the joint. Depending on the conditions or conditions of the joining work described in Examples 1 to 6, a gap 59 may be formed between the structure 2 near the joint 15 and the covering plate 3 as shown in FIG. In a site having a gap structure in high-temperature water in a light water reactor, the concentration of dissolved oxygen in the gap may increase depending on the condition of the gap, and stress corrosion cracking may occur. In such a case, in this embodiment, the gap 5
Since the thermal sprayed layer 63 having a component containing Pt or Pd having a hydrogen adsorption effect is formed in 9, the concentration of dissolved oxygen in the gap is reduced, and stress corrosion cracking is prevented.

In order to prevent the stress corrosion cracking in the gap near the joint, it is only necessary to form the thermal spray layer 63 only on the joint concerned as shown in FIG. 20. However, as shown in FIG. In the case where the coating plate 3 is joined by forming the thermal spray layer 63 over the entire area of the part 3, even if water infiltrates into the joint part, the development of the stress corrosion cracking of the defect 1 on the initially existing crack does not occur. This is prevented by the above effects.

Further, in this embodiment, since the joining work is performed with the thermal sprayed layer 63 interposed therebetween, the heat input on the structure side becomes smaller,
The diffusion of He is prevented, and the possibility of occurrence of a new crack in the structure 2 is further reduced.

As described above, in this embodiment, the construction in which the thermal spray layer is formed on the surface of the structure, the covering plate material is installed, and the joining is performed has been described. However, as shown in FIG. The same effect is exerted even if the overlay layer 64 having a thickness of about 50 to 500 μm is formed. Further, as shown in FIG. 23, the thickness containing Pt or Pd is about 50 to 50.
Even if a 0-μm plate-shaped insert material 65 is inserted, the same effect as in the present embodiment is exerted.

Further, instead of inserting the intermediate layer as described above, the cover plate 3 itself may be used as the above component. Further, as shown in FIG. 24, a surface modification layer 66 is formed by coating or surface treatment so that the surface of the covering plate 3 in contact with the surface of the structure 2 has the above-mentioned components, and then the covering plate 3 is installed. Then, the joining may be performed. In this case, as a means for forming the surface modified layer 66, a thermal sprayed layer is formed by thermal spraying, a plated layer is formed by plating, a buildup layer is formed by a TIG arc or the like, or an alloy by the above means is used. It is desirable to use a method in which a laser beam is irradiated after the addition of the element to form an alloyed layer. Here, after the surface modified layer 66 is formed, if necessary, a mechanical surface finish is performed before the covering plate material 3 is installed to adjust the surface roughness and the like.
It is desirable to install the joint and perform the joining work.

With the above construction, the covering plate 3 is joined to the structure 2, the portion where the crack 1 occurs in the structure 2 is isolated from the water environment, and the propagation of the crack due to stress corrosion cracking or the like is prevented, and The occurrence of stress corrosion cracking in the later gap was prevented.

Form 2 The amount of heat input required to form the surface molten layer 62 is, for example, 1 × 10 ¹ to 1 × 10 ^{1 using} any one of a TIG arc, a plasma arc, a laser, etc. as an energy source.
It is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application No. 5-79254 that the generation of cracks is prevented when controlled to a range of 1 × 10 ³ J / mm.

Since He is evaporated and reduced in the surface melted layer 62, the surface melted layer 62 is used as a contact surface on the side of the structure at the time of joining the coated plate 3 described in Examples 1 to 7. Crack susceptibility is further reduced.

By the above construction, the covering plate 3 is joined to the structure 2, the portion where the crack 1 of the structure 2 is generated is isolated from the water environment, the propagation of the crack due to stress corrosion cracking or the like is prevented, and at the same time, the joining is performed.

A locally fused metal bonding portion 61 of 50 to 500 μm is formed. The amount of heat input required to form the metal joint 61 is, for example, TIG in the same manner as in the eighth embodiment.
It has been found that cracking is prevented when the heat input is controlled in the range of 1 × 10 ¹ to 1 × 10 ³ J / mm using any one of an energy source such as an arc, a plasma arc, and a laser. No. 79254.

By the formation of the metal bonding portion 61 on the outer periphery of the bonding surface, the bonding strength between the structure 2 and the covering plate 3 is improved, and at the same time, the gap described in Embodiment 7 is cut off from the reactor water environment. Crack generation is prevented.
