EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF MOTION-RESISTANCE FORCE OF HYDRAULIC CYLINDER OF CRHDM

摘要

Hydraulic control rod drive technology (HCRDT) is a newly invented patent owned by Institute of Nuclear and New Energy Technology of Tsinghua University with independent intellectual property rights. Hydraulic cylinder is the core part of this technology, so the seal of hydraulic cylinder directly affects the performance of the hydraulic cylinder and HCRDT.A new experiment table was designed and used to study the leakage and internal cylinder friction at various types of friction coupling between internal cylinder and seal ring. The result shows that Motion-Resistance Force is the smallest when the internal cylinder film is TiN. Furthermore, when seal ring film is DLC (Diamond-like carbon) the leakage is the smallest. At last, the best friction coupling scheme was obtained. The experimental results provide the basis for the establishment of the motion model of hydraulic cylinder, which provides a foundation for further design and optimization of hydraulic drive technology of control rod.
