Description
外条带、 核反应堆燃料组件的定位格架及核反应堆燃料组件
技术领域
[0001] 本发明涉及核反应堆技术领域, 尤其涉及一种外条带、 核反应堆燃料组件的定 位格架及核反应堆燃料组件。
背景技术
[0002] 目前, 国内外的核电厂中使用的燃料组件一般由骨架和燃料棒组成, 骨架一般 由上管座、 下管座、 定位格架、 导向管、 仪表管及连接件等组成, 所有定位格 架沿燃料组件轴向相隔一定距离固定在导向管和仪表管上, 所有定位格架都有 相同的格栅单元排列和数量, 燃料棒、 导向管和仪表管沿燃料组件轴向逐个穿 过每个定位格架的相同位置的格栅单元。
[0003] 现有的一种定位格架中, 外周上的外条带的横向截面呈周期性的向格栅单元内 弯折的弯折结构, 因该折弯结构贯通了整个外条带的轴向高度, 降低了定位格 架的整体防屈曲强度, 从而带来了以下问题:
[0004] 1、 如果反应堆发生地震等事故工况吋, 堆芯内燃料组件之间的相互碰撞使定 位格架水平方向受到碰撞力, 从而更容易使定位格架在折弯区域发生屈曲, 破 坏定位格架。
[0005] 2、 对反应堆堆芯内的燃料组件进行吊装等操作吋, 当相邻燃料组件在水平位 置上相错 1/2栅元, 定位格架外条带的平面区域 (弯折结构之间的非折弯区域) 容易嵌入相邻燃料组件的燃料棒中间区域, 进而容易造成相邻燃料组件发生钩 挂。
[0006] 3、 燃料组件在堆芯内部相邻放置后, 因为定位格架间较低的流动阻力, 更多 的冷却剂会从相邻定位格架外条带之间流过, 而不参与搅混, 这会降低燃料组 件的冷却效果, 最终降低反应堆的热工安全运行裕量。
[0007] 另外, 现有定位格架的外条带区域基本没有垂直方向的投影面积 (除去条带厚 度的投影) , 因此外条带基本不会对冷却剂产生搅混作用。

本发明的实施方式
[0033] 为了对本发明的技术特征、 目的和效果有更加清楚的理解, 现对照附图详细说 明本发明的具体实施方式。
[0034] 如图 1、 2所示, 本发明一实施例的核反应堆燃料组件的定位格架 1, 包括外条 带 10、 设置在外条带 10内的多个平行间隔的第一内条带 20和多个平行间隔的第 二内条带 30; 第一内条带 20和第二内条带 30相互交叉形成网络状的格栅单元 40
[0035] 格栅单元 40包括多个依次相邻连接的栅元 41, 栅元 41中空, 分别用于燃料棒、 导向管穿过。
[0036] 如图 3、 4所示, 外条带 10在纵向上包括相连接的上边部 11、 中间部 12和下边部 13。 其中, 上边部 11和 /或下边部 13设有向中间部 12所在平面的同一侧外凸形成 多个导向部 14, 多个导向部 14沿外条带 10长度方向间隔分布; 中间部 12呈板状 连接在上边部 11和下边部 13之间, 提高定位格架的防屈曲强度。
[0037] 导向部 14通过冲压形成在上边部 11和 /或下边部 13上。 导向部 14可包括相接的 竖直状的侧壁以及底面, 底面与中间部 12相接。
[0038] 与中间部 12相接的导向部 14的底面相对中间部 12所在平面 (或导向部 14的侧壁 ) 倾斜, 形成导向斜面 15。 优选地, 导向斜面 15与中间部 12所在平面之间的夹 角 α小于 45度。 该导向斜面 15在冲压导向部 14吋形成, 使得外条带 10在垂直方向 上 (如图 1的俯视图) 有一定的投影面积, 对流经该区域的冷却剂起到一定的额 外的搅混作用, 从而增强燃料棒的换热效果, 提高反应堆热工安全运行裕量。
[0039] 本实施例中, 上边部 11和下边部 13均设有导向部 14, 上边部 11上的导向部 14和 下边部 13上的导向部 14呈镜像对称。

[0047] 进一步地, 第一内条带 20的上部设有多个间隔的凸出的第一搅混翼 21, 第一搅 混翼 21在横向上倾斜弯折伸入格栅单元 40的栅元 41内, 提高定位格架的搅混性 能。
[0048] 优选地, 第二内条带 30的上部也设有多个间隔的凸出的第二搅混翼 31, 第二搅 混翼 31在横向上倾斜弯折伸入格栅单元 40的栅元 41内, 提高定位格架的搅混性 育^ 相邻的第一搅混翼 21和第二搅混翼 31伸入格栅单元 40的不同栅元 41内, 确 保每一栅元 41内只有一个搅混翼。
[0049] 为使得定位格架 1搅混功能最大化, 第一搅混翼 21和第二搅混翼 31以一定规律 分布在第一内条带 20和第二内条带 30上。 根据冷却剂的流向, 位于与冷却剂流 向平行的方向上的第一搅混翼 21和第二搅混翼 31倾斜方向一致。
[0050] 如图 5、 6所示, 本发明另一实施例的核反应堆燃料组件的定位格架 1, 包括外 条带 10、 设置在外条带 10内的多个平行间隔的第一内条带 20和多个平行间隔的
第二内条带 30; 第一内条带 20和第二内条带 30相互交叉形成网络状的格栅单元 4 0。
[0051] 外条带 10在纵向上包括相连接的上边部 11、 中间部 12和下边部 13。 其中, 上边 部 11和 /或下边部 13设有向中间部 12所在平面的同一侧外凸形成多个导向部 14, 多个导向部 14沿外条带 10长度方向间隔分布; 中间部 12呈板状连接在上边部 11 和下边部 13之间, 提高定位格架的防屈曲强度。
[0052] 本实施例中的外条带 10与上述图 1-4所示实施例中外条带 10不同的是: 多个导 向部 14位于格栅单元 40最外圈栅元 41中依次相邻的两个栅元 41交接处, 相邻的 两个导向部 14之间间隔有一个第一内条带 20或一个第二内条带 30。 优选地, 相 邻两个导向部 14之间的距离等于或大于一个栅元 41的宽度。
[0053] 本实施例中, 外条带 10的其他结构等均可参照上述图 1-4所示实施例中所述, 在此不再赘述。
[0054] 进一步地, 第一内条带 20的上部设有多个间隔的凸出的第一搅混翼 21, 第一搅 混翼 21在横向上倾斜弯折伸入格栅单元 40的栅元 41内, 提高定位格架的搅混性 育^。 第二内条带 30的上部也设有多个间隔的凸出的第二搅混翼 31, 第二搅混翼 3 1在横向上倾斜弯折伸入格栅单元 40的栅元 41内, 提高定位格架的搅混性能。 相 邻的第一搅混翼 21和第二搅混翼 31伸入格栅单元 40的不同栅元 41内, 确保每一 栅元 41内只有一个搅混翼。
[0055] 为使得定位格架 1搅混功能最大化, 第一搅混翼 21和第二搅混翼 31以一定规律 分布在第一内条带 20和第二内条带 30上。 如图 5中所示, 根据冷却剂的流向 (图 5中箭头所示) , 位于与冷却剂流向平行的方向上的第一搅混翼 21和第二搅混翼 31倾斜方向一致。 对应第一搅混翼 21和第二搅混翼 31在第一内条带 20和第二内 条带 30上的布局, 外条带 10上的多个导向部 14间隔布置, 从而保证相邻燃料组 件之间的横向搅混, 提高反应堆芯热工裕量。
[0056] 如图 7所示, 本发明一实施例的核反应堆燃料组件, 包括上述图 1-4所示实施例 或图 5、 6所示实施例的定位格架 1。
[0057] 核反应堆燃料组件还包括相对设置的上管座 2和下管座 3、 数个导向管 4以及数 个燃料棒组 5。 数个定位格架 1沿燃料组件轴向间隔设置在上管座 2和下管座 3之
间, 导向管 4穿过定位格架 1并安装在上管座 2和下管座 3之间, 燃料棒 5夹持于定 位格架 1的栅元之中。
[0058] 下管座 2可包括匹配板和连接在匹配板下方的支撑腿, 匹配板设有用于固定导 向管的固定孔和供冷却剂通过的流道。 上管座 3也可包括匹配板, 匹配板设有用 于固定导向管的固定孔和供冷却剂通过的流道。
[0059] 结合图 3、 5及图 8所示, 该核反应堆燃料组件中, 由于定位格架 1中外条带 10的 特殊设置, 在相邻的两组燃料组件中, 对应相邻的定位格架 1以外条带 10相对, 由于外条带 10具有板状的中间部 12, 减小了相对的外条带 10之间的缝隙 100, 使 得冷却剂更多地流向定位格架 1内部参与搅混, 从而具有更好的冷却剂搅混性能
, 提高了反应堆的热工安全运行裕量。
[0060] 该核反应堆燃料组件中, 由于定位格架 1相比于传统的定位格架具有更高的防 屈曲强度, 当运行中的反应堆经历地震工况吋, 燃料组件相对可以承受更高的 地震载荷, 从而有更高的几率在反应堆地震工况下保持可冷却形状, 进而降低 反应堆堆芯损坏以及大量放射性物质释放的概率。
[0061] 该核反应堆燃料组件中, 通过定位格架 1及其中外条带 10的设置, 具有更好的 热工性能, 有更好的传热效果, 进而可以降低核燃料组件的运行温度, 提高正 常工况下运行裕量, 也可以延迟事故工况下的事故进程, 最终可以减小反应堆 堆芯损坏概率。
[0062] 以上所述仅为本发明的实施例, 并非因此限制本发明的专利范围, 凡是利用本 发明说明书及附图内容所作的等效结构或等效流程变换, 或直接或间接运用在 其他相关的技术领域, 均同理包括在本发明的专利保护范围内。
