The main characteristics of the sodium pipe system in Demonstration Fast Reactor Power Plant (DFRPP) are high-temperature, thin-wall and big-caliber, which is different from high-pressure and thick-wall of the pressurized water reactor system, and the system is long-term operate in the environment of liquid metal sodium. How to guarantee the reliability of materials in high temperature are most important in material option. Engineering design depend on the criterion. Material standards are different in different countries, and corresponding construction codes are different too. Comparing the stainless steel pipe material standers at home and abroad and analyzing the material standards’ difference according to different construction codes, a stainless steel pipe material criterion system is put forward in this paper which is applicable for the DFRPP.

Heat pipe heat exchangers (HPHEXs) are widely used in various industries. In this paper, a novel model of a liquid–liquid heat pipe heat exchanger in a countercurrent manner is established by considering the evaporation and condensation thermal resistances inside the heat pipes (HPs). The discrete method is added to the HPHEX model to determine the thermal resistances of the HPs and the temperature change trend of the heat transfer fluid in the HPHEX. The established model is verified by the HPHEX structure and experimental data in the existing literature and demonstrates numerical results that agree with the experimental data to within a 5% error. With the current model, the investigation compares the effectiveness and minimum vapor temperature of the HPHEX with three types of HP diameters, different mass flow rates, and different H* values. For HPs with a diameter of 36 mm, the effectiveness of each is improved by about 0.018 to 0.029 compared to HPs with a diameter of 28 mm. The results show that the current model can predict the temperature change trend of the HPHEX well; in addition, the effects of different structures on the effectiveness and minimum vapor temperature are obtained, which improve the performance of the HPHEX.
