Research on End-loading Test for Solenoid Globe Valve of Advanced PWR
-
Abstract
On account of valve end-loading test belonging to nuclear equipment qualification test, solenoid globe valve applied as RPV head exhaust valve for advanced PWR was taken as an example, method of valve end-loading test and loading calculation were discussed based on ASME QME-1. Test devices, procedure and results of solenoid globe valve end-loading test were introduced, the measured strain curves and functional test after end-loading test proved that the valve specimen was qualified for the end-loading test. The systematic introduction of method and technical essentials of valve end-loading test can be a significant reference for equipment qualification in the industry.
