在双面加热的窄缝环形流道中流动沸腾换热研究

在窄缝流道内发生沸腾换热现象时,由于沸腾产生的汽泡受窄缝流道的限制,受压变形而消除了汽泡表面张力对传热的影响。因此对此现象进行基础性理论研究具有很重要的意义。本文在常压下用蒸馏水对窄缝间隙为 0.75mm的垂直环形流道,进行了流动沸腾传热实验研究。实验段的有效加热长度为 900mm,其加热方式为内外侧双面加热,实验的流量变化范围在 1.67× 10－ 5～ 5.83× 10－ 5m3/s。通过实验得到了在不同质量流速和热流密度下双面加热的窄缝流道中内外侧沸腾换热系数随干度变化的分布和特点。研究结果表明,由于在窄缝流道中存在着大量的运动聚合受压变形汽泡,因此使内外侧沸腾换热系数都很高 (可达 105W· m－ 2· K－ 1以上 )。     

竖直矩形窄缝通道内过冷沸腾传热特性的实验研究

以去离子水为工质,在进口压力为0.1~0.3 MPa、质量流速为200~1400 kg?m-2?s-1、热流密度为20~320 kW?m-2的参数范围内,对截面参数为50 mm×2 mm的竖直矩形窄缝通道展开了传热实验研究。实验获得通道内部工质由单相状态到过冷沸腾状态的传热过程曲线,将过冷沸腾段实验值与8个经验公式提供的预测值进行了对比与分析,采用相似原理以及回归分析法,建立了适用于竖直矩形窄缝通道的过冷沸腾准则关系式。研究结果表明,在竖直矩形窄缝通道内,热流密度对过冷沸腾传热具有主导作用;对于本实验的窄缝通道,Bertsch传热公式对于过冷沸腾段的预测效果相较于其他公式更好,本研究所建立的准则关系式与实验数据符合良好。因此,本研究建立的公式能够用于竖直矩形窄缝通道过冷沸腾传热系数的预测。      

单棒通道流动振荡诱发沸腾临界可视化实验研究

为深入分析沸腾两相流动振荡诱发沸腾临界的影响特性,本文以去离子水为工质,横截面19 mm×19 mm、中心为外径9.5 mm的单棒通道为研究对象,通过在不同热工参数下开展沸腾两相流动特性可视化实验研究,结合汽泡行为和汽-液界面特性,分析流动振荡诱发沸腾临界的影响特性。研究结果表明,低压力、低质量流速和低入口过冷度下,极易出现流动振荡,并导致沸腾临界提前发生,此时的临界热流密度与稳定工况下相比明显偏低;随着壁面热流密度不断增加,流道中两相流型先后出现泡状流、弹状流、合并弹状流、搅混流、剧烈搅混流、不稳定环状流;当流动出现剧烈振荡时,流道存在回流;发生沸腾临界时流道压降波动最大,对应的流型为不稳定环状流。因此,单棒通道内流动振荡可能会导致沸腾临界提前发生。      

Direct Measurement of Neutron Flux

An experimental study was carried out on steady-state boiling of sodium flowing in the annular channel formed around an electrically heated simulation of a fuel pin. In the present experiment, the inlet temperature and flow rate were held constant, and the heat flux was gradually increased up to the inception of boiling. Thereafter, the heat flux was further increased step by step until the surface temperature of the heater pin marked a sharp rise, indicating the occurrence of dry-out. Records were obtained of the changes brought by the increasing heat flux to boiling phenomena, with particular reference to the behavior of the two-phase flow pattern and to the characteristics of boiling noise, as well as of the frequency of bubble formation.

It was made clear that there exists a region in which steady-state boiling will be established, and under these conditions the two-phase flow pattern changes sequentially from bubbly flow to slug flow and then to annular flow. This behavior of sodium boiling in a narrow channel is quite similar to the case of water.

With rising heat flux, the level of noise intensity associated with boiling first increased sharply to attain a maximum point, then decreased somewhat and remained constant thereafter until dry-out.

The frequency of bubble formation depended on the size of the bubble. The product of bubble frequency and equivalent diameter was found to be constant.

Modeling of debris cooling with annular gap in the lower RPV and verification based on ALPHA experiments

For severe accident assessment in a light water reactor, heat transfer models in a narrow annular gap between the overheated core debris and the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) are important for evaluating RPV integrity and emergency procedures. Using existing data, the authors developed heat transfer models on the average critical heat flux (CHF) restricted by countercurrent flow limitation (CCFL) and local boiling heat fluxes, and showed that the average CHF depended on the steam–water flow pattern in the narrow gap and that the local heat fluxes were similar to the pool boiling curve. We evaluated the validity of heat transfer models by simple calculations for ALPHA experiments performed at Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute. Calculated results showed that heat fluxes on the crust surface were restricted mainly by thermal resistance of the crust after the crust formation, and emissivity on the crust surface did not have much effect on the heat fluxes. The calculated vessel temperature during the heat-up process and peak vessel temperature agreed well with the measurements, which confirmed the validity of the average CHF correlation. However, the vessel cooling rate was underestimated mainly due to underestimation of the gap size.     

中低压条件下矩形窄缝通道两相流动传热试验研究

在中低压条件下,对矩形窄缝通道两相流动传热进行试验研究,分析两相流动传热的变化规律,拟合出饱和沸腾传热系数计算关系式,并采用简化的一维分析方法对两相压降进行分析计算。试验结果表明:在相同热平衡含汽率(x)情况下,两相流动压降随系统压力(p)的降低而增大,随系统流量的增大而增大的变化规律;p越低,两相流动压降随x的增加而增大越剧烈;流量越大,两相流动压降随x的增加而增大越剧烈。通过数据回归方法得到汽相湿周长比例因子F并拟合了计算关系式,其计算值与试验值符合得较好。矩形窄缝通道内饱和沸腾平均传热系数受p、质量流量及热流密度的影响较大。     

矩形窄通道内流动沸腾阻力实验与计算方法研究

基于换热器小型化的研究背景，对水在矩形窄通道内流动沸腾阻力特性进行了实验研究与分析，并利用实验结果对常规通道和窄通道的两相摩擦压降计算的6种方法进行了评价。结果表明，应用于常规通道的关系式已不适于窄通道中流动沸腾压降的计算，而基于窄通道的Zhang-Mishima及Sun-Mishima关系式预测结果与实验值符合较好。实验结果和理论分析表明，利用分相流方法得到的分液相摩擦因子计算式中Chisholm系数C与Martinelli参数X存在指数关系，且随着质量流速的变化也有所不同，据此给出了新的分液相摩擦因子的计算方法，新方法具有更高的计算精度。     

Evaluation of Cooling Capability in a Heated Narrow Flow Passage

A numerical method for the thermal hydraulic phenomena in a narrow flow passage is developed to evaluate the gap cooling capability. Based on a drift flux model, the two-dimensional gas-liquid two-phase flow in the annular and hemispherical heated narrow flow passages is modeled. The drift velocity correlation is combined with the flooding correlation, which describes physical phenomena under cooling limits. Experiment on thermal hydraulic phenomena in the heated narrow flow passage is performed. Boiling two-phase flow behavior and dryout phenomena are observed. The critical heat flux data is obtained from measurement of the heating surface temperature. Counter-current two-phase flow, which is a key phenomenon in the gap cooling mechanism, is reproduced by the numerical analysis appropriately. The critical heat flux is predicted by assuming that deficiency of the liquid supply against the gas upward flow leads to occurrence of dryout. Validity of the newly developed numerical method is demonstrated through comparison of the predicted critical heat flux with the present and existing data in the gap width range from 0.5 to 5 mm and the pressure range from 1 to 50 bar.
