【 摘 要 】
The ITER cryoline (CL) system consists of 37 types of vacuum jacketed transfer lines which forms a complex structured network with a total length of about 5 km, spread inside the Tokamak building, on a dedicated plant bridge and in the Cryoplant building/area. One of them, the low pressure relief line (RL) recovers helium discharged from process safety relief valves of the different cryogenic users and is sent it back to the Cryoplant via heater and recovery system. The process pipe diameters of the RL vary from DN 50 to DN 200 and the length is more than 1500 m. Loss of insulation vacuum (LIV) of a CL is one of the worst scenarios apart from LIV in Auxiliary Cold Boxes (ACBs). The Torus and Cryostat CL is chosen to simulate the virtual LIV and to study the anticipated behavior of the RL. Both helium LIV (LIV due to leak in helium pipe) and air LIV (LIV due to air ingress in outer vacuum jacket of the cryoline) with and without fire) have been simulated during this study. After the brief description of the CL system, the paper will describe the EcosimPro® model prepared for the dynamic study. The paper will also describe the results like minimum temperature of RL, mass flow and maximum pressure in the RL which are essentially used to choose the type and location of safety relief devices to protect the CL process pipes.
