Experimental Study on Aerosol Removal Characteristics from Wall Surfaces in Condensation Wash-down Environment

  • 摘要: 核反应堆发生放射性泄漏的严重事故后,弥散在安全壳气相空间的放射性气溶胶等物质会在墙壁、设备表面或地面等位置沉积。蒸汽冷凝液的冲刷去除是沉积放射性气溶胶颗粒离开壁面并再次迁移的主要途径之一,掌握沉积气溶胶颗粒的去除迁移规律,对于核事故后的放射性分析评价有重要意义。本文针对冷凝环境下壁面沉积的不可溶气溶胶去除特性展开实验研究,通过测量冲刷去除的气溶胶质量变化,探究壁面倾斜角度、冷凝速率和沉积密度等变量对气溶胶颗粒去除特性的影响,总结了不同工况环境下的沉积气溶胶的质量去除规律及去除份额。本研究可为放射性气溶胶迁移模型验证及优化提供支持。

     

    Abstract: For the nuclear reactor that experienced a severe radioactive leakage accident, there will be radioactive aerosols dispersed in vapor phase space of the containment vessel. These radioactive substances may deposit on the walls, equipment surfaces, or floors of the containment vessel. Washing by condensate is one of the main removal methods for the re-migration of deposited radioactive aerosol particles. Grasping the removal and migration rules of deposited aerosol particles is of great significance for radiological analysis and evaluation after nuclear accidents. In this paper, the wash-down behavior of aerosols on vertical walls and slightly inclined surfaces is of concern. A visualization experimental setup was established with steam condensation and aerosol deposition environments. The paper conducts an experimental study on the aerosol removal characteristics from wall surfaces in condensing environment. To investigate the effects of wall inclination, condensation rate, and deposition density on aerosol particle removal characteristics, this paper measured the change in aerosol mass during washing removal. The distribution characteristics of condensed water flow on vertical (90°)/ slightly inclined (0.4°, 2°) surfaces were observed through a visual window. The results show that there is wash-down by the rivulet on the 90° and 2° walls, and water film erosion on the 0.4° walls. The removal behavior of deposited particles was discussed in conjunction with the behavior of the condensate. The mass removal rules and removal efficiency (the ratio of washed-down mass to the total initially deposited aerosol mass) of deposited aerosols under different experimental environments were summarized. The results show that as the inclined angle gradually decreases, the time required for the aerosol removal process will significantly increase. On the other hand, a decrease in condensation rate will also increase the removal time of aerosols. In the experimental study, the cumulative removal mass efficiency varies under different environmental conditions, ranging from 78.7% to 96.7%. The study can provide the data support for further verification and optimization of radioactive aerosol transport models.
