摘要
An experiment was conducted to investigate the flow velocity of lead-bismuth eutectic in a channel whose cross section is circular and where the oxygen content is monitored and regulated. The experiments were performed with lead-bismuth eutectic temperature 400-420°C, thermodynamic activity of oxygen a = 104 100, coolant flow through the experimental section 1.8-3 m3/h, average velocity m/sec, and Reynolds number. A magnetic flow meter was used to determine the flow rate in real-time, which was calibrated at least once per day by the volume method. The oxygen content in the liquid-metal coolant was by feeding oxygen into the stand's gas system in a mixture with atmospheric air or hydrogen. The obtained velocity of the lead-bismuth eutectic in a circular channel can be represented in the form of plots of the function V/Vav = f(r/r0), where r is the running value of the radius, r0 = 13 mm is the radius of the tube in the experimental section, and Vav is the average velocity calculated as the arithmetic-mean value of the measured local velocity.
