摘要:

通过离散元法初步模拟了微球在重力作用下的堆积行为,并分析了氚增殖区Li4SiO4球床的局部堆积结构。研究结果表明,摩擦系数和恢复系数对球床最终堆积结构有很大的影响。当摩擦系数较小时,摩擦系数对球床堆积结构的影响起主要作用;当摩擦系数较大时,恢复系数对球床堆积结构的影响起主要作用。球形颗粒从靠近壁面处的规则分布逐渐过渡到内部区域的均匀随机分布。球床局部堆积因子表现出了明显的壁面效应,其分布随着微球到壁面距离的增加而呈现出振幅逐渐减小的振荡趋势。所得到的球床堆积结构信息可用于研究球床传热特性和提氚气体流动特性的随机堆积球床模型的建立。

Abstract:

The packing structures of pebble bed under the influence of gravity were studied initially by discrete element method simulation. The results indicate that both the friction coefficient and the restitution coefficient have a great influence on the final packing structure of pebble bed. When the friction coefficient is small, the effects of friction coefficient on the packing structure of pebble bed play a major role. When the friction coefficient is larger, the impacts of restitution coefficient on the packing structure of pebble bed play an important role. There is a transition of pebbles distribution from the regular distribution close to the container walls to the uniformly random distribution in the interior region of the pebble bed. The local packing factor of pebble bed shows an oscillation profile. The amplitude of the oscillation reduces gradually with the increase of distance to the container wall. The distribution of local packing factor presents a wall effect obviously. The packing structures of pebble beds obtained in this work can be used to build a random packing model of pebble bed for the studies of thermal properties of pebble bed and the flow characteristics of purge gas.
