配管内の硫酸流量、装置内での硫酸分解反応の発生、炉心管内の温度分布を把握するために、新たに高温硫酸分解ガスの腐食試験装置を製作した。その上で、超音波流量計を用いて硫酸溶液の流速を常時測定した。結果として、試験装置の入口のSO$$_{3}$$濃度は、高温ガス炉水素コージェネレーションシステム(GTHTR300C)を想定した水素製造プラントでの硫酸分解器入口のSO$$_{3}$$濃度とほぼ同等あった。一方で、試験中に出口側のすりあわせ部からは硫酸の漏れが発生した。そこで、流体解析により出口側すりあわせ部の温度分布を調査し、出口側配管から0.05m以上離れた位置では継手部の温度がフッ素継手グリスを使用するのに十分低い温度となることが明らかとなった。実際に改良された炉心管を製作し、出口側のすりあわせ部で再度温度を測定した。その結果、ジョイントグリースの温度限界を下回る温度であり、流体解析における温度分布とほぼ同様となっていた。その後、これまで硫酸の漏洩は発生していない。

New corrosion test equipment for high temperature gas of decomposed sulfuric acid was manufactured in order to ascertain flow rate of sulfuric acid in the piping, occurrence of sulfuric acid decomposition reaction in the equipment, and temperature distribution inside the furnace tube. The flow rate of the sulfuric acid solution was constantly measured using an ultrasonic flowmeter. The SO$$_{3}$$ concentration at the inlet of the test equipment was almost the same as that at the inlet of the sulfuric acid decomposer in the hydrogen production plant assuming a high-temperature gas cooled reactor hydrogen-power cogeneration system (GTHTR300C). On the other hand, during a test, leakage of sulfuric acid occurred from the fitting part at the outlet side. Hence the temperature distribution of the fitting part at the outlet side was investigated using fluid analysis. As a result, it was found that the temperature at the fitting was low enough to use fluorine joint grease when the distance was 0.05 m or more away from the outlet side pipe. An improved furnace tube was manufactured and the temperature was measured again at fitting part of the outlet side. The temperature was lower that the temperature limit of the joint grease and almost the same as the temperature distribution in the fluid analysis, and leakage of sulfuric acid has not occurred to date.
