Abstract:
Throttle orifices are widely used in various pipe systems of nuclear power plants.Improper placement of orifices would aggravate the vibration of the pipe with strong noise,damaging the structure of the pipe and the completeness of the system.In this paper,effects of orifice diameter,thickness,eccentric distance and chamfering on the throttling are analyzed applying CFD software.Based on that,we propose the throttle orifices which apply to small space with large pressure drop are multiple eccentric orifices.The results show that the multiple eccentric orifices can effectively restrain the cavitation and flash distillation,while generating a large pressure drop.
