    Abstract: [Background]: The volume of the nuclear power plant containment is huge, making it difficult to conduct equal-scale or large-scale thermal-hydraulic tests. Currently the test data mainly come from small-scale tests. [Purpose]:To address the applicability of small-scale containment test data in validation process of the containment performance analysis code, the analysis method for applicability of experimental data is proposed and developed on the basis of similarity analysis of the pressure response process in the containment. [Methods]: The applicability study of the test data, which are produced by some scaled containment facilities such as the HDR, Battelle and CVTR, is carried out in combination with the test parameters. The applicability of each test case are obtained respectively when they are applied to validate the containment code in case of the Large Break Loss of Coolant Accident (LBLOCA) and Main Steam Line Break Accident (MSLB) of HPR1000 nuclear power plant. [Results]:The results show that the similarity criteria for pressure response process and key phenomena within the containment vessel under accident conditions can be used to analyze the applicability of different containment tests to the target power plant. [Conclusions]:The proper combination of test cases including HDR ISP-16&23, Battelle CASP-1&2, and CVTR T3 can represent the pressure transient process, results of coupling phenomena such as mass and energy release at the break, condensation near the containment shell and internals, within the HPR1000 containment in case of LOCA or MSLB. The distortion is either within the acceptable range or conservative for design limits of containment pressure, so that the small-scale containment test data are suitable for the verification and validation of the HPR1000 containment thermal hydraulic response analysis code.

    Abstract:蒸汽发生器传热管是压水堆核电站一回路的关键压力边界,正常运行及事故条件下的系统运行参数,直接影响着传热管结构的完整性。为进一步对传热管的结构响应特性进行研究,建立了两种主流排列方式的传热管局部模型,并分别进行了正常运行和典型事故参数下的流固耦合计算和对比分析,获得了一、二次侧流体共同作用下的传热管关键部位的载荷变化规律。结果表明,在相同的流动条件下,传热管叉排模型的应力和变形均大于顺排模型;传热管根部横截面的等效应力沿壁厚方向先减小再增大,中部横截面的等效应力沿壁厚方向呈现近似线性降低;在传热管根部区域,内、外壁面的等效应力沿轴向高度先迅速降低而后快速升高,并形成应力平台。
