China News Service, Beijing, September 5 (Reporter Yan Xiaohong) China National Nuclear Corporation disclosed on the 5th that after the world's first reactor began to load materials, China's independent third-generation nuclear power plant Hualong No. 1 construction progress has again spread good news.
On September 4, local time, the first overseas reactor of Hualong No. 1-Pakistan Karachi Nuclear Power K-2 unit completed the primary circuit cooling and pressure reduction, marking the successful end of the K-2 unit thermal performance test, assembling materials and connecting to the grid for subsequent units Major nodes such as power generation have laid a solid foundation and further strengthened the confidence of the countries along the “Belt and Road” in Hualong 1.
As the "national business card" of China's nuclear power going to the world, Hualong No.1 is one of the most widely accepted three-generation nuclear power generators in the current nuclear power market. It is a major landmark achievement of China's nuclear power innovation and development. It is important for China to transform from a nuclear power country to a nuclear power country. The leap is of great significance.
Currently, China National Nuclear Corporation has 6 Hualong No. 1 nuclear power units under construction at home and abroad, and the safety and quality of the construction projects are in a well-controlled state.
Among them, on August 31, local time, the outer containment dome of the Karachi Nuclear Power K-3 unit of the Hualong No. 1 overseas project was successfully hoisted in place, and the main structure of the nuclear power plant was completed, laying a good foundation for the orderly development of subsequent project construction .
The hot test is a major link in the construction of nuclear power projects. It is another time for the sealing and welding quality of reactor coolant system equipment, pipelines, and related system design, manufacturing, and installation quality levels when the nuclear reactor has not been loaded with nuclear fuel. Comprehensive inspection.
During the hot test, the real operating conditions of the nuclear power plant are simulated to verify the reliability of the main equipment and systems operating under hot conditions.
The Hualong No. 1 overseas project was undertaken by China National Nuclear Corporation China Zhongyuan Foreign Engineering Co., Ltd.
