An
energy recovery type power generation pressure reducing device comprises a water pump used as a prime motor, taking water from
tail water of a
hydropower station hydro-generator and driving a water pump
impeller to rotate, the water pump
impeller is connected with an asynchronous generator, the asynchronous generator is used as an intermediate link to complete conversion from water head
pressure difference potential energy to
electric energy, and the
tail water is sent to a technical water using
system after
pressure reduction. The asynchronous generator is provided with a
frequency conversion control device which is connected with the asynchronous generator and a
power grid system, and rotation speed adjustment of the water pump and grid-connected control of the asynchronous generator are achieved. The device is simple in structure, low in
noise and long in service life,
pressure reduction of
tail water is achieved, and the
water energy utilization rate is effectively increased; the technical
water supply system of the
hydropower station provides technical
water supply for the
hydropower station by using the device, realizes
water energy recovery and power generation, reduces the waste of
water resources, improves the
overall efficiency and benefits of the hydropower station, solves the problems of complex structure, difficulty in maintenance, low energy utilization efficiency and the like of the existing pressure reducing device, and has wide application prospects and important practical values.
