Gas-Liquid Separator design of SWRPRS in PGSFR

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

Description

There is the Sodium-Water Reaction Pressure Relief System (SWRPRS) in PGSFR to prevent the Sodium- Water Reaction (SWR) due to the break of the steam generator tube. The piping to atmosphere includes several components such as gasliquid separator, backpressure rupture disk, and hydrogen igniter. Among these components, gas-liquid separator separates the liquid sodium which is included in gas SWR products not to react sodium and air. In this study, the size of gas-liquid separator, which is based on the hydrogen volume which is exhausted in the sodium dump tank, is determined. To determine the gas-liquid separator for the separation of gas and sodium particle dumped the SDT, Stairmand's model which has high performance among standard cyclone separator models is selected. The body diameter is determined, and other dimensions are determined due to the ratio about the body diameter. Shepherd and Lapple's model is selected as the pressure drop calculation model considering the conservation
