    摘要: A method and apparatus for providing a Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) jet pump three point slip joint clamp to mitigate sleep joint leakage flow induced vibration of a BWR jet pump assembly. A collar, provided as one seamless component or in separate portions, is installed on the upper crown of a diffuser. The collar includes a lower set of fasteners and an upper set of fasteners that contact the inlet mixer and diffuser, respectively, to horizontally stabilize the inlet mixer in a fixed position inside of the diffuser. The upper fasteners may be anchored by bosses that ensure a light-weight design of the collar. An optional cantilevered seal (including a cantilevered overhang and a lip) may mitigate leakage from the slip joint interface.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for supporting the lower riser assembly of a jet pump in a reactor pressure vessel (RPV) of a nuclear reactor are described. In one embodiment of the apparatus, the clamp apparatus facilitates applying compression force on the elbow. The clamp apparatus includes a lower elbow clamp, a riser clamp, and a bridge. The lower elbow clamp is positioned adjacent an interface between the elbow and the thermal sleeve of the jet pump riser pipe assembly. The riser clamp is secured to the riser pipe of the jet pump riser pipe assembly at a location adjacent an interface between the riser pipe and the elbow. The bridge rigidly couples the lower elbow clamp and the lower clamp so that as the respective clamps are secured to the lower riser assembly, a compression clamping force is placed on the piping and welds at each clamp.

    摘要: Repair apparatus and a method of repair utilized for securing pressure sensing lines to jet pump diffusers in boiling water nuclear reactors is disclosed. Conventional access is made to the reactor with removal of the jet pump inlet mixer to expose the upwardly disposed frustum-shaped diffuser. The diffuser includes a pressure sensing line mounted by a stand off block. It has been found that this pressure sensing line becomes separated from the diffuser due to vibration and accompanying metal fatigue. A repair is effected by introduction of an arcuate beam configured for live support at each end. This pressure sensing line and stand off block is bracketed by the upper end of a beam to register the line to the stand off block. The lower end of the beam brackets the line and stands off from the diffuser at a second introduced stand off block. The line is provided with two points of support to prevent further dislodging vibration. The beam is in turn captured by an elliptical ring clamp encircling the essentially circular section of the diffuser between the beam and its captured line. A saddle on the elliptical ring opposite the clamped beam tensions the ring diameter. The ring clamp fits in a preformed notch on the beam and is disposed normally to the surface of the diffuser from the saddle. This disposition of the ring urges the beam upwardly in latched engagement with the stand off block so as to position the line at the upper end of the beam to the stand off block. A universal beam holder for the remote clamping and release of the beam as well as universal manipulation of the beam in pitch, yaw and azimuth is disclosed. This universal beam holder enables positioning of the beam in the submerged radio-active environment of the reactor. The clamp also enables the beam to be maintained in position with the line and stand off block while the ring clamp captures the beam. When the ring clamp is fastened to the beam by securing of a wedge fitting at the saddle, the universal beam holder releases the beam and is withdrawn. Clamping of the pressure sensing line at two spaced apart points secures against both initial detachment and further vibration damage.

    摘要: The invention provides a tool for closing off the jet nozzles of jet pumps located in an almost inaccessible location inside the shell of a boiling water reactor. The tool suspended on a cord is lowered down through a narrow gap extending down along the major part of the shell of the reactor, a distance of approximately 30 feet. The tool is lowered onto a stationary projection--namely, a lug or ear--which provides a gauge point for height and lateral position and an anchorage for torque in a horizontal plane. With these two controls for the tool of the invention, a closure for the jet nozzle may be applied to each of the jet nozzles to close them off against outflow of the water contained in the shell of the reactor thereby avoiding the bleak alternative of taking the reactor completely out of service, which includes removing the fuel bundles and draining the shell.

    摘要: A jet pump slip joint repair assembly includes at least one clamp and a bushing configured to be inserted in a bore of a diffuser and to surround a portion of an inlet mixer. The clamp includes a gripping surface and a gripping collar. The bushing includes a generally cylindrical sidewall, the sidewall configured to surround the portion of the inlet mixer, a grooved flange on an upper surface of the sidewall, at least one cutout between adjacent portions of the grooved flange, and a groove on an inner, bottom surface of the sidewall. The assembly also includes a seal in the groove. The seal is flexible and formed of a metallic material. The seal is configured to be compressed when the at least one clamp engages the bushing.

    摘要: A sealing device for a jet pump of a boiling water reactor is provided. The jet pump includes an inlet mixer and a diffuser receiving the inlet mixer at a slip joint such that an outer circumferential surface of the inlet mixer is received in an inner circumferential surface of the diffuser at the slip joint. The diffuser includes a plurality of guiding fins, each guiding fin including a radially inner surface, a radially outer surface and lateral surfaces extending radially between the inner and outer surfaces. The sealing device includes a seal configured for sealingly contacting the outer circumferential surface of the inlet mixer and a collar configured for holding the seal against the outer circumferential surface of the inlet mixer. The collar includes portions configured for being received radially between the radially inner surfaces of the guiding fins and the outer circumferential surface of the inlet mixer. The sealing device further includes a clamp configured for contacting the radially outer surfaces of the guiding fins to axially clamp the guiding fins. A method of mounting a sealing device onto a slip joint of a jet pump of a boiling water reactor is also provided.
