The invention relates to the technical field of energy usage and control, in particular to an
energy management device for a solar assisted ocean thermal gradient
power generation system. The
energy management device is characterized by comprising an
irradiance sensor, a temperature sensor, a flow sensor, an analog
quantity unit, a PLC
control system, a human-computer interface and an upper computer, wherein the analog
quantity unit collects signals such as
radiation intensity, heat storage
water temperature, working medium temperature at an
evaporator outlet, etc. and outputs the signals; andthe PLC
control system is combined with the collected signals and uses a
fuzzy PID control algorithm to output a
control signal to adjust the speed of a warm
seawater pump, a heat storage water pump,a cold
seawater pump and a working medium pump and the opening of a
bypass valve of a three-way valve, and control the flow of warm
seawater, the flow of conduction oil, the flow of heat storage water, the flow of cold seawater and the flow of a working medium under corresponding working conditions of the solar assisted ocean thermal gradient
power generation system, the working state of the
power generation system is automatically adjusted, and thus all-weather efficient power generation is realized. The
energy management device can adjust an
equipment state according to load needs and the change of an external environment, so as to maintain the stable power generation efficiency and facilitate management personnel to control and monitor.
