在超临界水冷堆预概念设计中,组件设计是十分重要的,将影响堆芯性能。超临界水冷堆中水密度变化剧烈的特性要求必须进行核热耦合分析。从中子学及热工性能角度,使用三维核热耦合程序对环形燃料组件进行了优化设计。应用中子学计算程序FENNEL-N对环形燃料组件进行三维扩散计算,可得到组件内单棒功率分布,应用热工计算程序SUBSC对组件进行子通道分析。在计算过程中,分析了燃料棒间距及燃料棒与组件壁盒之间的间隙对组件性能的影响。计算结果显示,增大棒间距和棒壁间隙能提高组件kinf,但会增大组件内功率峰因子;子通道受热不均匀性对组件热工性能影响较大,通过加入定位格架的方式能展平冷却剂出口温度,降低最大包壳温度。对环形燃料组件的安全分析表明,从中子学角度该组件是安全的。 相似文献

基于先进组件程序HELIOS和堆芯节块法程序SIXTUS,研发了超临界水冷堆(SCWR)的中子学计算程序FENNEL-N,并通过与蒙特卡罗程序对比分析了其用于环形燃料超临界水冷堆计算的精度。组件验证结果表明:制作多群数据库的压水堆能谱与超临界水冷堆能谱的差异是导致计算误差的主要原因。堆芯验证结果表明:传统的组件均匀化方法在计算超临界水冷堆时会引入较大误差。应用FENNEL-N程序对组件均匀化方法进行了研究,结果表明,采用优化的组件参数少群结构能减少堆芯能谱变化对精度的影响,采用超组件模型计算组件参数可考虑反射层对组件参数的影响。采用新的组件均匀化方法后,FENNEL-N的计算精度满足了预概念设计需求。 相似文献

超临界水冷堆堆芯子通道稳态热工分析 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:1
超临界水冷堆(SCWR)作为6种第四代未来堆型中唯一的水冷堆,冷却剂出口温度可达500℃,具有良好的经济性.本文采用改进的COBRA-IV程序对超临界水冷堆方形组件子通道进行稳态热工分析.对计算结果进行分析可知:减小慢化剂通道中给水质量流量份额和加大慢化剂通道与相邻子通道之间的热阻,可以降低热管焓升,后者还可以得到较好的慢化效果.通过热通道的传热恶化分析发现,超临界水冷堆的设计不能避免传热恶化,必须精确计算传热恶化条件下的包壳温度才能确定包壳能否保证其完整性. 相似文献

A new fuel assembly design for a thermal supercritical water cooled reactor (SCWR) core is proposed. Compared to the existing fuel assemblies, the present fuel assembly has two-rows of fuel rods between the moderator channels, to achieve a more uniform moderation for all fuel rod cells, and subsequently, a more uniform radial power distribution. In addition, a neutron-kinetics/thermal-hydraulics coupling method is developed, to analyze the neutron-physical and thermal-hydraulic behavior of the fuel assembly designs. This coupling method is based on the sub-channel analysis code COBRA-IV for thermal-hydraulics and the neutron-kinetics code SKETCH-N for neutron-physics. Both the COBRA-IV code and the SKETCH-N code are accordingly modified. An interface is established for the data transfer between these two codes. This coupling method is applied to both the one-row fuel assemblies (previous design) and the two-row fuel assemblies (present design). The performance of the two types of fuel assemblies is compared. The results show clearly that the two-row fuel assembly has more favorable neutron-physical and thermal-hydraulic characteristics than the one-row fuel assembly. The effect of various parameters on the fuel assembly performance is discussed. The coupling method is proven to be well suitable for further applications to SCWR fuel assembly design analysis. 相似文献

The paper presents the results of sub-channel analysis of CANDU–SCWR based on a wide review of heat transfer correlations. According to comparison with experiment data at different heat flux, Bishop Correlation is selected in SUBCHAN code to analyze CANDU–SCWR fuel channel. By detailed calculation of 43 fuel rods fuel channel in CANDU–SCWR, the paper gets the conclusion that the mass flux redistribution and reduction of heat-transfer coefficient at supercritical condition caused by the steep change of coolant density will limit the power of fuel channel in CANDU–SCWR. 相似文献

The increase of steam parameters to supercritical conditions could reduce the power generating costs of light water reactors significantly [Proceedings of SCR-2000 (2000) 1]. Core assemblies, however, will differ from current BWR or PWR design. In this context, this paper summarizes the main results related to a thermal-hydraulic design analysis of applicable fuel assemblies. Starting from a thorough literature survey on heat transfer of supercritical fluids, the current status indicates a large deficiency in the prediction of the heat transfer coefficient under reactor prototypical conditions. For the thermal-hydraulic design of such fuel assemblies the sub-channel analysis code Sub-channel Thermal-hydraulic Analysis in Fuel Assemblies under Supercritical conditions (STAFAS) has been developed, which will have a higher numerical efficiency compared to the conventional sub-channel analysis codes. The effect of several design parameters on the thermal-hydraulic behaviour in sub-channels has been investigated. Based on the results achieved so far, two fuel assembly configurations are recommended for further design analysis, i.e. a tight square lattice and a semi-tight hexagonal lattice. 相似文献

In the Generation IV International Forum (GIF) program, the supercritical water reactor (SCWR) concept is among the six innovative reactor types selected for development in the near future. In principle the higher efficiency and better economics make the SCWR concept competitive with the current reactor design. Due to different technical challenges that, however exist, fuel assembly design represents a crucial aspect for the success of this concept. In particular large density variations, low moderation, heat transfer enhancement and deterioration have a strong effect on the core design parameters. Only a few computational tools are currently able to perform sub-channel thermal-hydraulic analysis under supercritical water conditions. At JRC-IE the existing sub-channel code COBRA-EN has been improved to work above the critical pressure of water. The water properties package of the IAPWS Industrial Formulation 1997 was integrated in COBRA-EN to compute the Thermodynamic Properties of Water and Steam. New heat transfer and pressure drop correlations more indicated for the supercritical region of water have also been incorporated in the code. As part of the efforts to appraise the new code capabilities, a code assessment was carried out on the hexagonal fuel assembly of a fast supercritical water reactor. COBRA-EN was also applied in combination with the neutronic code MCNP to investigate on the use of hydride fuel in the HPLWR supercritical water fuel assembly. The results showed that COBRA-EN was able to reproduce the results of similar studies with acceptable accuracy. Future activities will focus on the validation of the code against experimental data and the implementation of new features (counter-current moderator channel, wall, and wire-wrap models). 相似文献

Research activities are ongoing worldwide to develop nuclear power plants with a supercritical water cooled reactor (SCWR) with the purpose to achieve a high thermal efficiency and to improve their economical competitiveness. However, there is still a big deficiency in understanding and prediction of heat transfer in supercritical fluids. In this paper, heat transfer of supercritical water has been investigated in various flow channels using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code CFX-5.6 to provide basic knowledge of the heat transfer behaviour and to gather the first experience in the application of CFD codes to heat transfer in supercritical fluids. Three different flow channels are selected, i.e. circular tubes, the sub-channel of a square-array rod bundle and the sub-channel of a triangular-array rod bundle. The effect of mesh structures, turbulence models, as well as flow channel configurations is analysed. Based on the present results, recommendations are made on the application of turbulence models to the heat transfer of supercritical fluids in various flow channels. A new definition for the onset of heat transfer deterioration is proposed. A strong non-uniformity of heat transfer is observed in sub-channel geometries. This non-uniformity has to be taken into account in the design of fuel assemblies of SCWR. 相似文献
