    摘要: A control rod absorber assembly (1), a control rod (3) and a control rod assembly. The control rod absorber assembly (1) comprises a first absorber (11), a second absorber (12) and a stress transmission assembly (13), wherein the stress transmission assembly (13) is arranged around the periphery of the second absorber (12) and forms a stress combination together with the second absorber (12), and a receding space (2) for accommodating the second absorber (12) when the second absorber expands in a radial direction is provided between the stress transmission assembly (13) and the periphery of the second absorber (12); and the first absorber (11) and the stress combination are configured to be mounted in a cladding tube (31) of a control rod (3), the first absorber (11) and the stress combination are arranged in an axial direction of the cladding tube (31),and the first absorber (11) is located above the stress combination and is configured for pressing the stress combination downwards. By arranging the stress transmission assembly (13), the second absorber (12) does not bear the action of gravity of the first absorber (11), so as to reduce compression creep of the second absorber (12); and when the second absorber (12) absorbs neutrons and expands in the radial direction, an expanded portion can be accommodated in a receding space (2), so as to prevent a cladding tube (31) from being damaged.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a small nuclear power reactor core and a ship. In the small nuclear power reactor core, twenty-one control rods include four power compensation rods A, five reactivity adjustment rods B, four temperature adjustment rods R, and eight shutdown rods S. The power of the reactor core is adjusted by adjusting the insertion depth of the power compensation rods A; the changes in reactivity of the reactor core caused by fuel burn-up and changes in xenon concentration are compensated for by adjusting the insertion depth of the reactivity adjustment rods B; the average temperature of the reactor core is adjusted by adjusting the insertion depth of the temperature adjustment rods R; the shutdown rods S provides additional negative reactivity to ensure a sufficient shutdown depth during shutdown of the reactor core. The control rods are functionally grouped and their layout is designed such that no soluble boron is required. These functional control rods are respectively used to control the power, temperature, shutdown of the reactor core, and compensate for the changes in reactivity of the reactor core caused by fuel burn-up and changes in xenon concentration, thereby realizing the miniaturization of nuclear power plant cores.

    摘要: A safety system for dealing with a severe accident of a nuclear power plant and a control method therefor. The safety system includes at least one in-reactor water injection system for injecting water into a reactor pressure vessel; each in-reactor water injection system includes a multi-stage accumulator, and a first water injection pipeline connected to a cold pipe of a primary loop system; an interior space of the multi-stage accumulator includes a gas-phase space, a first-stage water injection space, and a second-stage water injection space distributed from top to bottom in sequence; the multi-stage accumulator is provided with a first flow pipeline and a second flow pipeline having a pipe diameter less than that of the first flow pipeline, the first flow pipeline communicates the first-stage water injection space with the first water injection pipeline, and the second flow pipeline communicates the second-stage water injection space with the first water injection pipeline. In the present disclosure, both in-reactor and outer-reactor cooling may be conducted by the in-reactor water injection system in conjunction with an outer-reactor cooling water injection system, thereby maintaining the integrity of the RPV when a severe accident occurs.

    摘要: Disclosed in the present invention are a fuel module and an application thereof. The fuel module comprises a column structure, a plurality of hollow closed holes and a plurality of cooling through holes that are dispersedly provided in the column structure, and fuel provided in the column structure; the hollow closed holes are located in the column structure; each of the hollow closed holes is filled with fuel; the cooling through holes are isolated from the hollow closed holes, run through two opposite sides of the column structure, and are used for allowing a cooling medium to pass through. In the fuel module of the present invention, a column structure is used as a supporting body, and hollow closed holes are filled with fuel and cooperate with cooling through holes to form an integrated structure. Compared with the cladding-pellet-assembly structure of an existing fuel assembly, the overall structure has high strength, and the fuel module can withstand high pressure, is safe and reliable, and improves the safety of a nuclear reactor.
