Abstract

The nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in March 2011 in Japan caused a tsunami and submerged the emergency diesel generator resulting in a station blackout (SBO). Based on the accident, a study was conducted on the use of passive safety systems as a support for active safety systems in nuclear reactor cooling systems. The Loop Heat Pipe (LHP) prototype is a small-scale LHP research facility, one of which is used to determine the characteristics and heat transfer events in LHP. Calculations to determine the thermal resistance of the LHP prototype need to be carried out to determine its performance level. The research was carried out experimentally for data collection followed by calculations based on the data that had been obtained. The calculation results obtained that the lowest thermal resistance is 0.014 °C/w with a 100% filling ratio and an airflow velocity of 2.5 m/s, so the setting of filling ratio and airflow velocity produces the best LHP prototype performance. The higher the airspeed, the greater the heat released by the condenser resulting in the value of the thermal resistance of the LHP prototype getting smaller. Thus, the greater the airspeed, the lower the thermal resistance of the LHP prototype, this indicates that the performance of the LHP prototype is increasing.

Abstract

Copper is a commonly used material for heat pipe fabrication using the welding process. However, welding copper to copper presents significant challenges due to its inherent material properties. Its exceptionally high thermal conductivity facilitates rapid heat dispersion, complicating the maintenance of a stable melting zone. Furthermore, copper is prone to oxidation, which generates brittle oxides that can adversely affect weld quality. This research paper examines the relationship between TIG welding parameters—specifically current, voltage, shielding gas flow rate, and filler rods—and the mechanical properties of the resulting heat pipe material. The study involves varying the welding current at levels of 120 A, 135 A, and 150 A, along with different types of filler rods. The results indicate that both the selection of welding current and the type of filler rod significantly influence the tensile strength of copper welded joints. Notably, the use of higher currents in ERCuSi-A welding tends to decrease hardness in the HeatAffected Zone (HAZ), while producing more complex variations in hardness within the Weld Metal (WM), dependent on the interplay between heat and the chemical composition of the filler rod. Additionally, nickel in the ERCuNi filler rod contributes to an increase in weld hardness.
