일체형원자로는 노심, 증기발생기, 가압기, 펌프 등 1차측 주기기들을 하나의 압력용기 안에 모두 포함하고 있고 또 1차측 냉각재가 원자로 안에서만 순환하므로 기존의 분리 형에 비해 구조특성상 상당히 다른 설계개념이 필요하다. 본 연구에서 개발중에 있는 일체형 열병합원자로에서 채택한 설계개념은, 먼저 증기발생기는 많은 수의 전열관들이 나사선처럼 노심지지원통을 감고 올라가는 일체형 관류식 나선형을 사용하였으며, CEDM은 지진하중과 같은 동적하중에 의한 영향을 최소화하기 위하여 원자로용기 외부로의 돌출부분을 최소화하는 설계개념을 채택하였다. 또한 가압기는 별도의 부품없이 원자로용기 헤드의 빈공간을 활용한 자기가압방식으로 대체하였고 냉각재 펑프는 Canned Motor Pump를 원자로벽에 직접 부착하는 개념을 사용하였다. 본 논문에서는 예비개념설계된 일체형 신형원자로의 기계구조설계상의 특징들을 설명하고 앞으로의 연구방향을 간략히 소개한다.

This paper presents the results of fluidelastic instability analysis performed for the U-tube bundle of a Westinghouse model 51 steam generator, one of the recirculating types designed at an early stage, in which the principal region of external cross-flow is associated with the U-bend portion of tube. The prerequisites for this analysis are detailed informations of the secondary side flow conditions in the steam generator and the free vibration behaviours of the U-tubes. In this study, the three-dimensional two-phase flow field in the steam generator has been calculated employing the ATHOS3 steam generator two-phase flow code and the ANSYS engineering analysis code has been used to calculate the free vibration responses of specific U tubes under consideration. The assessment of the potential instability for the suspect U-tubes, which is the final analysis process of the present work, has been accomplished by combining the secondary side velocity and density distributions obtained from the ATHOS3 prediction with the relative modal displacement and natural frequency data calculated using the ANSYS code. The damping of tubes in two-phase flow has been deduced from the existing experimental data by taking into account the secondary side void fraction effect. In operation of the steam generator, the tube support conditions at the tube-to-tube support plate intersections due to either tube denting degradation or deposition of tube support plate corrosion products or ingression of dregs. Thus, various hypothetical cases regarding the tube support conditions at the tube-to-tube support plate intersections have been considered to investigate the clamped support effects on the forced vibration response of the tube. Also, the effect of anti-vibration bars support in the curved portion of tube has been examined.
