The paper deals with the mathematical modelling and the computer simulation of forced vibrations of the reactor core barrel excited by pressure pulsations generated by main circulation pumps. The modelling is focused on a possible core barrel flange slip along a pressure vessel flange. The slip in this internal reactor linkage is analysed providing the solid friction and the backlash between slip tongues of the pressure vessel flange and grooves in the core barrel flange. The impact motion can produce an excessive abrasive wear of the tongues and grooves. A guarantee of the fail-safe operation is achieved by calculated pre- stressing of toroidal tubes inserted between the upper flange of the core barrel and the pressure vessel cover. and Obsahuje seznam literatury
The paper deals with the modelling of forced vibrations of reactor components excited by pressure pulsations generated by main circulation pumps. For the vibration analysis a new generalised model of the reactor with spatial localization of the nuclear fuel assemblies and protection tubes, continuously mass distribution of beam type components and more accurate model of the linear stepper drives for actuation of control cassettes was applied. Slightly different pump revolutions are sources of the heating which causes an amplification of vibration and possibility of the contact loss in internal linkages of the core barrel. and Obsahuje seznam literatury
The paper deals with mathematical modelling and computer simulation of the seismic response of chosen components of hte nuclear WWER 1999 reactor. The seismic response is investigated by numerical integration method in time domain. The seismic excitation is given by two horizontal and one vertical synthetic accelerograms at the level of the pressure vessel seating adjusted for a certain damping vallue 5 %. The main aim of the paper is seismic response assessment for two variants of nuclear fuel assemblies - VVANTAGE 6 and TVSA-T. The maximal values of displacements and linkages or component deformations are compared for both fuel assembly variants. and Obsahuje seznam literatury
