In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the technical solutions of the present invention will be described clearly and completely with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. It should be apparent that the described embodiment is one embodiment of the invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the described embodiments of the invention without any inventive step, are within the scope of protection of the invention.

Referring to fig. 1 to 10, a liquid metal electromagnetic pump 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention may include: a fluid flow conduit 30 and an electromagnetic drive. The flow conduit 30 has a flow inlet for receiving the inflow of liquid metal and a flow outlet for delivering the liquid metal outwardly. In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3-4, the flow conduit 30 may include a diverging inner diameter inlet flow section 31, a uniform inner diameter cylindrical section 33, and a diverging inner diameter outlet flow section 32, which are connected in series along the direction of liquid metal flow. The cylindrical section 33 may be a thin-walled circular tube, and the inlet guide section 31 and the outlet guide section 32 may be thick-walled pipes. The inner diameters of the ports of the inlet guide section 31 and the outlet guide section 32 on the side away from the cylindrical section 33 are smaller, and the ports are respectively used as a liquid flow inlet and a liquid flow outlet of the liquid flow pipeline 30.
The electromagnetic drive device is used for providing electromagnetic force for driving the liquid metal to flow from the liquid flow inlet to the liquid flow outlet. The liquid metal electromagnetic pump 100 of the embodiment of the application, in the use process, the liquid metal with high temperature is driven by the electromagnetic driving device to flow into the liquid metal electromagnetic pump 100 from the liquid flow inlet and flow out from the liquid flow outlet, so that the pumping effect on the liquid metal is realized.
In some embodiments, the electromagnetic drive may comprise: an outer core disposed radially outward of the flow conduit 30 and a plurality of coils 10. The outer core extends axially along the flow conduit 30 (e.g., cylindrical section 33) radially outward thereof.
The outer core is provided with a plurality of winding slots along its length. The coil 10 is disposed radially outwardly of the flow conduit 30 (e.g., cylindrical section 33). Each coil 10 is arranged in one winding slot of the outer core.
The flow conduit 30 also typically has a relatively high temperature due to the liquid metal flowing into the flow conduit 30 being at a relatively high temperature. Referring to fig. 4, an insulating layer 70 may be disposed between the outer core and the flow conduit 30 to reduce heat transfer therebetween to prevent excessive temperatures of the outer core and the coil 10. In some embodiments, the thermal insulation layer 70 may be a nano aerogel blanket with an inorganic matrix and a thickness of 2-10 mm.
The coil 10 may be formed by winding a wire having an insulating layer on a surface thereof in a radial direction. The number of the winding slots and the coils 10 can be integral multiples of 3, the coils 10 adopt a triangular circuit connection method, the coils 10 are electrified with variable currents with phase difference of 120 degrees, and the generated travelling wave magnetic field acts on the liquid metal medium to push the liquid metal to flow in the liquid flow pipeline 30.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 1 and 3, the outer core includes a plurality of bar cores 20 extending along the axial direction, the bar cores 20 are arranged at equal intervals along the circumferential direction of the liquid flow pipe 30 at the radial outer side, each bar core 20 is provided with a plurality of core slots 21 along the axial direction or the length direction, and the core slots 21 of the bar cores 20 at the same position along the axial direction jointly form one winding slot of the outer core.
In the prior art, the liquid metal electromagnetic pump 100 has poor stability during the working process of pumping high-temperature liquid metal. The inventor of the present application has found that high-temperature demagnetization of a magnetizer serving as an external iron core causes poor stability and failure of the liquid metal electromagnetic pump 100. To solve the heat dissipation problem, in the related art, a heat dissipation fan is used to perform forced air cooling heat dissipation on the liquid metal electromagnetic pump 100. However, the internal environment of the reactor is severe, and the reliability of the liquid metal electromagnetic pump 100 is greatly reduced by using the cooling fan.
Accordingly, the inventors of the present application have made improvements to the structure of the outer core. In particular, in some embodiments, a heat dissipation hole 22 is further opened between two adjacent iron core slots 21. Referring to fig. 3, that is, core slots 21 and heat dissipation holes 22 are alternately provided in the length direction of the bar-shaped core 20. The heat dissipation holes 22 are formed between the iron core slots 21 of the external iron core, so that flow channels for free circulation of air are formed on two sides of each coil 10, the heat dissipation area of the external iron core is greatly increased, and the space condition of natural convection heat transfer is obviously improved. Through the design, on the premise that the magnetic conductivity of the external iron core is not affected, the complete air circulation pore passage is formed by the heat dissipation holes 22, and the coil 10 and the external iron core are effectively dissipated.
Further, in some embodiments, the radial depth of the core slots 21 is greater than the radial width of the coil 10, thereby forming channels radially outward of the coil 10 to facilitate air circulation, thereby reducing the temperature of the coil 10 and the outer core. In some embodiments, the radial depth of the core slot 21 may be 0.5-3cm more than the radial width of the coil 10.
According to the embodiment of the application, the radiating holes 22 are formed in the strip-shaped iron core 20, and the size of the iron core slot 21 is specially designed, so that the air circulation around the coil 10 is enhanced, and the fault rate of the liquid metal electromagnetic pump 100 is reduced.
In some embodiments, the number of the bar-shaped iron cores 20 may be even, and the even number of the bar-shaped iron cores 20 are uniformly distributed along the circumferential direction on the radial outer side of the liquid flow pipe 30 so as to form a symmetrical magnetic field. In the illustrated embodiment, the number of the bar-shaped iron cores 20 is 8, and the 8 bar-shaped iron cores 20 are uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction on the radial outer side of the liquid flow pipe 30. In other embodiments, the number of the strip-shaped iron cores 20 may also be 4, 6, 10, etc.
In some embodiments, the outer core may be laminated from non-oriented silicon steel sheets. Note that the specific form of the outer core is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the outer core may have other configurations as are commonly used in the art.
In some embodiments, the electromagnetic drive apparatus may further include: a housing 60 disposed radially inward of the fluid flow conduit 30, and an inner core 50 disposed inside the housing 60. In some embodiments, a support 66 is provided radially outward of the housing 60 to support the housing 60 radially inward of the flow conduit 30.
Similar to the structure of the flow conduit 30, the housing 60 may also include a first flow guiding section 61 with a gradually expanding inner diameter, a sleeve section 62 with a uniform inner diameter, and a second flow guiding section 63 with a gradually contracting inner diameter, which are connected in series along the flow direction of the liquid metal. Wherein the first flow guiding section 61, the sleeve section 62 and the second flow guiding section 63 are welded to each other to form a closed chamber inside the casing 60. The inner core 50 is disposed in a closed chamber inside the housing 60.
An annular flow passage for liquid metal is formed between the outer surface of the housing 60 and the inner surface of the flow conduit 30 in communication with the flow inlet and the flow outlet. The annular flow channel jointly constructed by the shell 60 and the liquid flow pipeline 30 is a gradual change annular flow channel with guidance, and the annular flow channel can reduce the flow resistance of the liquid metal as much as possible, improve the flow threshold corresponding to the cavitation vibration phenomenon of the fluid, and greatly improve the fluid stability when the electromagnetic pump 100 of the liquid metal drives the high-temperature liquid metal, particularly the alkali metal such as sodium and potassium.
Referring to fig. 3 to 5, a support 66 may be provided on the radially outer side of the first guide section 61 and the second guide section 63 of the housing 60, respectively, to support the housing 60 coaxially with the flow conduit 30 on the radially inner side of the flow conduit 30. The support 66 forms a through-hole in the circumferential direction of the annular flow passage between the housing 60 and the flow conduit 30 so as not to interfere with the flow of liquid metal in the annular flow passage, but to firmly hold the housing 60 inside the flow conduit 30.
In some embodiments, the electromagnetic drive apparatus may further include: an inner support tube 64 disposed in the closed chamber of the housing 60, and the inner core 50 is tightly fitted over a radial outer side of the inner support tube 64. As will be readily understood by those skilled in the art, the "close fitting" herein means that no relative displacement occurs between the inner core 50 and the inner support tube 64, and the radially inner side surface of the inner core 50 is in close contact with the radially outer side surface of the inner support tube 64, thereby forming good thermal contact between the inner core 50 and the inner support tube 64.
The inner support tube 64 can be connected with the first flow guide section 61 and the second flow guide section 63 in a clearance fit mode, so that the thermal stress generated by temperature difference and material difference can be effectively reduced, the thermal ratchet damage and axial high-temperature buckling of the shell 60 are avoided, and the working stability of the liquid metal electromagnetic pump 100 is improved. Specifically, the width of the gap between the inner support tube 64 and the first flow guide section 61 and the first flow guide section 63 ranges from approximately 0.05mm to 0.2 mm.
With the inner core 50 disposed within the flow conduit 30, it is difficult to effectively dissipate heat from the inner core 50 because it is inside the sealed housing 60, and the housing 60 is inside the high temperature liquid metal.
