摘要(Abstract):
铅铋合金(LBE)作为冷却剂的快堆是第四代核能系统的主要堆型之一。燃料组件的定位格架是燃料棒束的定位结构,同时对燃料组件的热工水力性能也有重要的影响。本研究首先对板翼型格架组件的热工水力特性进行数值模拟,并通过与实验对比,验证了模拟方法的有效性;其次对板翼型、双翼型、单板型三种定位格架组件的热工水力特性进行了数值模拟。结果表明:流经不同格架造成LBE的最高温度位置不同,双翼型、单板型格架组件LBE温度分布更为均匀;格架的翼和板(翼)的中间区域会使对LBE温度均匀起到一定作用的横向速度叠加抵消,单板型格架无此情况;对于格架造成的局部压降,单板型格架阻力系数最小。综合考虑,单板型格架组件的热工水力性能最佳。
