One of the directions for solving this problem is to improve the equipment of nuclear power plants, in particular the search for the most suitable technical solutions for regenerative high- and low-pressure heaters (HPH and LPH) of steam turbine units (STU). Optimization of water subcooling to the saturation temperature of the heating steam (hereinafter referred to as subcooling) in the STU regeneration stages makes it possible to increase the power of the power unit or reduce the metal intensity of the heaters, depending on the expected economic indicators of the nuclear power plant, which leads to a reduction in the estimated cost of generated electricity. Unification of heaters will make it possible to simplify the processes of design, manufacturing, repair, and transportation of serially produced heat-transfer equipment, improve the layout of the turbine building, and reduce equipment development costs. The article presents the results of calculations of the technical and economic indicators of the heat-transfer equipment of the STU regeneration system type K-1200-6.8/50 LMZ, and draws conclusions about the possibility of finding a preferable solution based on the criterion of annual economic effect. A special feature of the methodology used is the determination of the most appropriate values of water subcooling in surface heaters of the STU regeneration system depending on operating conditions, the situation on the electricity and equipment market, as well as economic policy. The possibility of increasing the economic efficiency of the power unit by optimizing the weight and size characteristics and unifying the heat-transfer equipment of the regeneration system is shown. An additional economic effect can be obtained by using chamber-type heaters in a horizontal design, combining two heating stages in one housing. A promising layout option is that in which the entire LPH group is represented by unified surface-type devices in a horizontal design located in the condenser hood of a half-speed STU.</p>","PeriodicalId":799,"journal":{"name":"Thermal Engineering","volume":"71 5","pages":"391 - 399"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141137445","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is noted that the only way to evaluate the effectiveness of various compensators in reducing vibration at different frequencies currently is to compare their transient vibration stiffness or transient mechanical impedance, which were measured on special stands at a given frequency. The stiffness of the compensator increases significantly with increasing frequency vibrations. Hazardous frequencies may vary between piping systems. For this reason, it is impossible to set an integral criterion for the effectiveness of a vibration-isolating compensator, similar to static stiffness. The results of measurements carried out on a special stand on the transitional vibration stiffness of a new design compensator with thin-layer rubber-metal elements (TRME) are presented. The rigidity decreased by 10 or 100 times or more in the frequency range from 50 to 800 Hz relative to the rigidity of a serial compensator based on rubber cord casing (RCC), including in the presence of water inside it. It has been experimentally shown that the vibration-isolating ability of the same compensator as part of a pipeline system, determined by the value of the dynamic force transmitted by the compensator to the pipeline from the pump, significantly depends on the presence of water in them and its flow, which is not taken into account in known methods. The results of testing compensators with RCC and TRME with a bore diameter of 80 mm as part of a stand with a ring pipeline system, a pump, systems for monitoring the flow of the working fluid, vibrations, pressure pulsations, and dynamic (vibration) forces transmitted by the compensators to the pipeline are presented. In a stand with pipelines, the efficiency of vibration-isolating compensators with TRME is still 10 and 100 times higher than compensators with RCC in the absence of water and decreases by an order of magnitude in the presence of water without its flow when the pump is vibrated by a vibrator.

The KORSAR/GP code has been developed jointly by specialists of the Federal State Unitary Enterprise Aleksandrov Research Institute of Technology (NITI) and the special design bureau OKB Gidropress. In 2009, the code was certified at the Federal Service for Environmental, Technological, and Nuclear Supervision (Rostekhnadzor) as applied to numerical safety assessment of VVER-type power reactor plants. The code uses the semi-implicit numerical scheme, which limits the integration time step by the Courant condition with respect to the velocity of a two-phase flow. To cut down the time it takes to calculate prolonged transients in reactor plants, an implicit numerical method, which does not limit the time step by the Courant condition, has been developed on the basis of the SETS (stability-enhancing two-step) method. It is based on the semi-implicit scheme. Prior to its application, discrete phase momentum conservation equations with the convective terms written in implicit form are solved at each time step. After the semi-implicit step, the specific (per unit volume) mass and energy of the phases, which are donor quantities in the convective terms of the transport equations, are calculated at the new time layer. Unlike the SETS method, the implicit method developed for the KORSAR code employs a semi-implicit scheme with linearization of unsteady terms describing the change in the specific mass and energy of a two-phase flow. This approach enables us to solve discrete equations in a noniterative manner. However, the implementation of this procedure requires that the unknown scalar variables, such as the phase specific enthalpies, the vapor volume fraction, and the pressure, be determined in the computational cells. Therefore, the semi-implicit scheme with linearization of unsteady terms with recalculated donor quantities at the end of the time step is reused. The performance and effectiveness of the developed implicit method have been confirmed by solving, using the KORSAR code, a test problem of a two-phase flow in a heated horizontal tube driven by a pressure difference.</p>","PeriodicalId":799,"journal":{"name":"Thermal Engineering","volume":"71 4","pages":"301 - 308"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140884505","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the issues that has to be settled in the case of CHEs installed downstream of boilers is to ensure that the flue gas removal stacks will operate without steam condensation on their inner surfaces. To protect smoke stacks against hydrate corrosion, bypassing of part of combustion products not cooled in the CHE is mainly used in practice. The article presents the results obtained from computations of the heat-transfer processes in the combustion products cooled in a CHE as they move in a reinforced concrete smoke stack fitted with clamped lining, which is protected against hydrate corrosion by bypassing. The computations are carried out for three operation modes of the 180-m high smoke stack, through which flue gases are removed from three power-generating boilers of the BKZ-420-140 NGM type installed at the Samara combined heat and power plant (CHPP), a branch of Samara PAO T Plus. The peculiarity and complexity of the computations are connected with the fact that that the flue gas’s thermophysical parameters and motion velocity in the smoke stack vary during the flue gas cooling process. The parameters’ variation pattern depends essentially on the fraction of gases directed in bypass of the CHE. A mathematical model and computer program are developed for computing the heat-transfer processes in flue gases moving in the smoke stack with CHEs installed downstream of the boilers and with the smoke stack protected against hydrate corrosion by the bypassing method. It has been determined that, for a 180-m high three-layer reinforced concrete smoke stack operating at an outdoor air temperature of –30°С and boilers operating at the nominal load, the fraction of bypassed gases makes 30–35%. With the boilers operating at partial loads equal to 75 and 60% of the nominal value, the fraction of bypassed gases makes 35–40 and 40–45%, respectively. The use of condensing heat exchangers in boiler units results in that the levels of temperature difference, free temperature deformation, and thermal stresses in the smoke stack’s structural elements are reduced by a factor of 1.33–2.80 depending on the fraction of gases passed through the CHEs, thereby enhancing the flue gas removing smoke stack performance reliability.</p>","PeriodicalId":799,"journal":{"name":"Thermal Engineering","volume":"71 4","pages":"340 - 347"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140884567","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Promising power plants, the performance of which is little dependent on weather conditions, and whose operation is not associated with the generation of greenhouse gas emissions, are low-power nuclear power plants.

The development of district heating system still has the problems of low intelligence and low control accuracy, and there is the imbalance of heat supply and demand in heat distribution. Resulting in the energy consumed by the district heating system can account for more than half of the total energy consumption of the building. In order to alleviate this imbalance, this paper studies the control of heat distribution of each heat exchange station in the primary network. The heat model of primary network is established by recurrent neural network (RNN), and the data set used for modeling is the operation data of heat exchange station in reality. Combined with the heat load prediction model, a heat distribution strategy was proposed to optimize the primary flow of the heat exchange station. According to the predicted value, chaotic particle swarm optimization (CPSO) algorithm is used to optimize the primary flow sequence of each heat exchange station, and then the primary flow is adjusted to control the heat distribution of the secondary network. Finally, Simulink simulation model is used to simulate the water supply temperature of the secondary side of the heat exchange station. And analyze the operation status of the secondary side, the results verify the effectiveness of the strategy. The model simulation results show that the heat distribution scheme proposed in this paper can effectively distribute the heat of the heat exchange station according to the heat demand.</p>","PeriodicalId":799,"journal":{"name":"Thermal Engineering","volume":"71 4","pages":"364 - 373"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140884581","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
