Research on the Reliability of the Operating Performance of the Relief Valve of Nuclear Power Plant under Seismic Conditions

Nowadays, environmental and energy problems are becoming increasingly prominent. Nuclear power plants are an important means to solve these two problems. Therefore, research on the reliability of nuclear power plants is closely related to environmental and energy issues. The reliability research of nuclear safety valves has always been the top priority in the reliability research of nuclear power plants, so the reliability of the operation performance of such relief valves must be considered under seismic conditions. This article borrows ANSYS to carry out fluid-solid coupling simulation of relief valves, including simulations under seismic conditions and non-seismic conditions, and explores changes during opening and closing under various conditions, including the opening height, pressure and velocity in internal flow field ,inlet pressure ,solid stress and solid strain. Finally, a test comparison shows that the effect of longitudinal seismic load on the return pressure of the relief valve can be ignored
