严重事故下反应堆压力容器下封头耦合烧蚀传热分析

Coupled Ablation and Heat Transfer Analysis of Lower Head for Reactor Pressure Vessel under Severe Accident Condition

  • 摘要: 核电站严重事故发生后,反应堆压力容器(RPV)固壁在熔池作用下会发生烧蚀、减薄。开展RPV下封头耦合烧蚀传热分析对堆坑注水有效性论证和RPV剩余壁厚确认有重要的理论指导意义。本文以CPR1000反应堆压力容器为研究对象,在FLUENT 17.2平台下,基于动态网格方法和UDF二次开发,构建了综合考虑RPV固壁瞬态烧蚀与导热、RPV内壁热流密度再分布及RPV外壁过冷沸腾的全耦合计算模型,获取了9 000 s内的堆坑两相流场分布和RPV固壁烧蚀温度场,分析确定了最小剩余壁厚和发生位置。结果表明:使用动态网格捕捉壁面烧蚀的方法可行,本文全耦合计算模型在分析RPV固壁瞬态烧蚀过程方面有一定优势。

     

    Abstract: After a reactor core melts accident, the solid wall of the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) will be inevitably eroded by the melting core which contains large density of heat flux. The analysis of the coupled ablation and heat transfer of the lower head for RPV is of great theoretical significance to the effectiveness demonstration of water injection in reactor pit and the confirmation of the residual wall thickness of RPV. In this work, numerical simulations were carried out based on the RPV model of CPR1000 using the CFD software FLUENT 17.2. Based on dynamic mesh model and user-defined function (UDF) redevelopment, a fully coupling calculation model considering the transient ablation and heat conduction of solid wall of RPV, the redistribution of heat flux density in RPV inner wall and the subcooled boiling of RPV outer wall was established. Both two-phase flow pattern in the reactor pit and temperature field of RPV solid wall ablation within 9 000 s were obtained and the minimum residual wall thickness and the occurrence location were determined by analysis. The results show that it is feasible to use dynamic mesh to capture wall ablation. The fully coupling calculation model has certain advantages in analyzing the transient ablation process of RPV under severe accident.
