Abstract

PURPOSE:To secure a natural circulation force and also to reduce down a fluctuation of a water level in a liquid-vapor phase by dividing the water level in the liquid-vapor phase in the horizontal direction by means of a grating plate provided at a position above a riser whereat the water level is formed. CONSTITUTION:A grating plate 10 is provided at a position above a riser 3 of a natural circulation type reactor whereat a water level in the liquid-vapor phase is formed, apart from the upper end of the riser 3. The value of the height of the grating plate 10 is suitably 1/10 to 1/30 of the diameter of a pressure vessel. Since this grating plate 10 disturbs the motion in the horizontal direction of a liquid phase, a fluctuation in the horizontal direction of the water level is divided by the grating plate 10 and thus the fluctuation is reduced down. Thereby the frequency and strength of a stress acting on an in-pile apparatus, e.g. pipings for instrumentation, are lowered and therefore the reliability of the in-pipe apparatus is further improved. Since the quantity of liquid drop caused by the fluctuation of the water level is lessened, the quantity of the liquid drop reaching a drier 6 with steam is also lessened and thus the design conditions of the drier 6 are relaxed.

This further improves the reliability of the reactor equipment by reducing the frequency and strength of stresses acting on the equipment, such as instrumentation piping, and reduces the amount of droplets generated by two-phase water level fluctuations. Therefore, the amount of droplets that are entrained in the steam and reach the dryer 6 is also reduced, and the design conditions for the dryer 6 are relaxed. In addition, since the grid plate 10 is installed at a distance from the upper end of the riser 3, it does not create flow resistance for the circulating liquid phase, and the natural circulation force is almost the same as without the grid plate 10.
