The control rod drive mechanism (CRDM) is a kind of servo mechanism for the reactor control system of the nuclear power plant. This paper presents a cylindrical linear induction motor suitable for the CRDM. First, the structure of the CRDM is introduced. Second, the relationship between the main dimensions and the electromagnetic load is derived. Third, the influence of materials of the mover shielding shell, speed, and electromagnetic parameters on the lifting force is analyzed by the finite-element method (FEM). Meanwhile, the steady-state temperature of each component of the CRDM is obtained. Finally, a scaled-down prototype is manufactured to verify the rationality of the design. The test results show that the FEM results are consistent with the experimental results, and the essential functions such as lifting, lower insertion, and maintenance can be realized.

The control rod drive mechanism (CRDM) is a critical device in nuclear plants. This paper proposes a kind of CRDM applying the cylindrical linear induction motor (CLIM). First, the structure and the working principle are introduced. Second, the finite-element method (FEM) is applied to analyze the electromagnetic characteristics of CRDM. The lifting force variation curves with different electromagnetic and structural parameters are obtained. Third, the thermal analysis is carried out by FEM. The steady-state thermal distribution and temperature of each component of CRDM are obtained. All the above results show that the proposed CRDM can meet the design criteria and such functions as rising, falling, and holding still.
