Influence of High Frequency Supply Power on Discharge of HLLW Cold Crucible Glass Solidification

  • 摘要: 冷坩埚高放废液玻璃熔制出料是其固化过程的关键环节,高频电源功率是影响出料的重要因素之一。为探究\phi 650 mm冷坩埚工程样机的高频电源功率对出料的影响,提高冷坩埚出料的可靠性和稳定性,本文以高频电源功率为实验变量开展冷坩埚温度场、电磁场及搅拌流场的多物理场耦合仿真研究,用以模拟出料前冷坩埚的温度场分布,然后开展启动玻璃珠熔融出料验证实验,对冷坩埚内玻璃液进行测温,并校核仿真结果,最后通过开展不同高频电源功率的仿真对保障顺利出料的最佳高频电源功率进行预测研究。通过启动玻璃珠工况的验证实验得到了42 min出料等待时间及2.52 kg/min平均出料速率的相对理想出料工况,其所需的高频电源功率为360 kW,此工况实测得到的两个不同搅拌桨工位的测点温度分别为1 365 ℃和1 387 ℃,与仿真预测结果吻合度较高,然后通过仿真温度场预测埚底出料口附近温度为1 000 ℃左右。然后通过改变仿真中玻璃的物性参数以模拟稳定运行工况下最佳出料高频电源功率,仿真表明需要高频电源功率维持在290 kW左右,且预测功率与实验数据符合较好。在此基础上开展了搅拌失效异常工况下冷坩埚出料功率预测,结果表明搅拌失效异常工况下需要高频电源功率为360 kW左右,基于此针对搅拌失效异常工况下冷坩埚出料提出了应急方案。以上结果表明,本研究建立的冷坩埚出料仿真模型可以实现对于启动和稳定工况下最优出料功率的预测,并可通过调整仿真参数对今后可能出现的各种不同工况(不同玻璃质量、不同搅拌工况、不同组分玻璃、其他异常工况等)下的最优高频电源功率进行预测。

     

    Abstract: The melting and discharging of glass from cold crucible high level radioactive waste liquid is a key step in its solidification process, and the high frequency supply power is one of the important factors affecting the discharging. In order to explore the influence of high frequency supply power on the discharging of the engineering prototype of the \phi 650 mm cold crucible, improve the reliability and stability of the cold crucible discharging, a multi-physics coupling simulation study on the temperature field, electromagnetic field, and stirring flow field of a cold crucible using high frequency supply power as the experimental variable to simulate the temperature field distribution before discharge was conducted. A verification experiment was carried out to initiate the melting and discharging of glass beads, measure the temperature of the glass liquid in the cold crucible, and verify the simulation results. Different high frequency supply power simulations were conducted to predict the optimal high frequency supply power to ensure smooth discharge. The results indicate that a relatively ideal discharge condition with a waiting time of 42 min and an average discharge rate of 2.52 kg/min is obtained in the verification experiment of starting glass working condition. The required high frequency supply power is 360 kW. The measured temperatures at two different stirring blade stations under this condition are 1 365 ℃ and 1 387 ℃, respectively, which are in good agreement with the simulation prediction results. The temperature near the bottom discharge port of the crucible is predicted to be around 1 000 ℃ through the simulation temperature field. By changing the physical parameters of the glass to simulate the optimal high frequency supply power under stable operating conditions, the simulation shows that the required power is maintained at around 290 kW, and the predicted power is in good agreement with the experimental data. On this basis, the prediction of cold crucible discharge power and emergency plan design under abnormal stirring failure conditions were carried out. The study shows that high frequency supply power of about 360 kW is required under this abnormal condition. Therefore, the simulation model of cold crucible discharge established in this paper can predict the optimal discharge power under startup and stable conditions, and can predict the optimal high frequency supply power under various conditions that may arise in the future (different glass qualities, different stirring conditions, different component glasses, abnormal conditions, etc.) by adjusting simulation parameters.
