摘要

In order to operate a Sodium Fast Reactor in reliable and safe conditions, the quality of the coolant must be mastered. The chemical control of sodium is performed versus the different chemical compounds: oxygen (corrosion control), hydrogen (detection of the sodium-water reaction) and to a lesser degree, carbon (carburization, decarburization phenomena). Furthermore, other detrimental effects could be avoided: plugging of narrow sections, loss of heat transfer efficiency in heat exchangers, contamination and dosimetry,...Oxygen and moisture are introduced mainly during handling operations; hydrogen is due to aqueous corrosion of the Steam Generator Unit and thermal decomposition of hydrazine, used to control the oxygen content in the water. The purification of oxygen and hydrogen is adequately performed thanks to cold traps and mainly due to the fact that the solubilities are nearly nil for temperatures close to the fusion point, i.e. 97.8°C. This paper deals with the development of purification systems for the primary and intermediate circuits of an SFR. Based on previous studies related to the basic mechanisms of Na20 and NaH crystallization and on operational feedback from French Reactors, new concepts of cold traps were developed for Superphenix and EFR. In order to design new cold traps, a new computer tool has been developed, predicting the location and the amount of impurities deposited on cold walls for NaH and on wire mesh packing for NaH and Na2O. This model helps the engineer developing a pre-conceptual design and assists the operator in following the filling rate of the cold trap, thereby avoiding long experimental tests in sodium facilities and reducing the cost of cold trap qualification strategies.
