Electromagnetic Analysis of Magnetic-Jack type CRDM for Thrust Force Improvement

  • 1. Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute, Daejeon (Korea, Republic of)

Description

The magnetic-jack (magjack) type is used for control rod drive mechanism (CRDM) of the System-integrated Modular Advanced Reactor (SMART). An arrangement of three flat-face plunger electromagnets, when energized in a controlled sequence, will lift, hold, or insert a rod cluster in the reactor core. Especially the thrust force of magjack type electromagnet for the SMART needs more than that of KSNP (Korean Standard Nuclear Power Plant) under the same spatial constraints. In order to achieve improved thrust force, numerical magnetic field calculations for various kinds of magnetic yoke configuration of electromagnet have been performed. As a result, we present the improved design of electromagnet of magjack type CRDM for the SMART
