[0002] With rapid economic development and accelerating industrialization, the contradiction between energy shortages and high energy consumption is becoming increasingly prominent. Energy storage is a key supporting technology for the energy revolution and a means to address the large-scale integration of renewable energy, improve the efficiency of power and regional energy systems, and enhance safety and cost-effectiveness.
[0003] Molten salt heat storage offers advantages such as a wide temperature range, large heat capacity, and high heat exchange efficiency. It can deliver stored heat energy to thermal power generation equipment in a clean, efficient, and flexible manner. In power system operation, deep peak shaving is crucial for ensuring grid stability and efficient energy utilization. Currently, molten salt heat storage technology is being applied to deep peak shaving of generator sets. This technology uses molten salt electric heaters to heat the molten salt to quickly respond to peak shaving demands, and a molten salt cooling system transfers the heat energy to the generator feed water. This technology features self-condensation protection, with no phase transition between hot and cold media. Leveraging existing high-efficiency steam turbine generator sets, it can reduce heat consumption, achieving high-capacity, long-term, highly safe, and low-cost deep peak shaving.

[0057] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the steam-water circulation system further includes: a condenser 3;
[0058] The condenser 3 is connected to the intermediate and low pressure cylinders 22 and the water supply system, and is used to condense the exhaust gas of the intermediate and low pressure cylinders 22 into condensed water and transport the condensed water to the water supply system through a condensate pump 4.

[0061] The deaerator 6 is connected to the high-pressure heater 8 and is used to deoxygenate the preheated water by utilizing the heat of the steam extracted from the medium and low-pressure cylinders 22, and the obtained deoxygenated water is pressurized by the water feed pump 7 and then transported to the high-pressure heater 8;
[0062] The high-pressure heater 8 is connected to the gas boiler 1 and the molten salt steam-water heat exchanger 9, and is used to use the heat of the steam extracted from the high-pressure cylinder 21 to further heat the pressurized deoxygenated water, and to transport the obtained high-pressure feed water to the gas boiler 1 and the molten salt steam-water heat exchanger 9.
[0063] Specifically, the exhaust steam from the low-pressure cylinder of the steam turbine enters the condenser 3 and condenses into condensate, which is then sent to the low-pressure heater 5 and the deaerator 6 in sequence by the condensate pump 4. The deoxygenated low-pressure feed water is sent to the high-pressure heater 8 through the feed water pump 7. After being heated by the high-pressure heater 8, part of the high-pressure feed water enters the gas boiler 1, and the other part enters the molten salt steam-water heat exchanger 9, completing the steam-water cycle.
[0064] The heating steam for the high-pressure heater 8, the deaerator 6 and the low-pressure heater 5 comes from the extraction steam from the high-pressure cylinder 21 and the medium- and low-pressure cylinders 22 of the steam turbine respectively.

[0067] The primary desuperheater 15 is connected to the molten salt steam-water heat exchanger 9 and the high-pressure heater 8, and is used to perform a primary desuperheating and decompression on the received superheated steam, and then send a portion of the superheated steam after the primary desuperheating and decompression into the high-pressure heater 8;
[0068] The secondary desuperheater 16 is connected to the primary desuperheater 15 and the low-pressure heater 5 and is used to perform secondary desuperheating and decompression on another portion of the superheated steam after the primary desuperheating and decompression and then send the steam to the low-pressure heater 5 .
[0069] Specifically, part of the superheated steam generated by the molten salt steam-water heat exchanger 9 is introduced into the main steam main pipe generated by the boiler, and the other part is introduced into the high-pressure cylinder 21 of the steam turbine for extraction after being cooled and reduced in pressure by the first-stage temperature reducer 15, and is used as heating steam for the high-pressure heater 8. The second part is introduced into the medium- and low-pressure cylinders 22 of the steam turbine for extraction after being cooled and reduced in pressure by the second-stage temperature reducer 16, and is used as heating steam for the low-pressure heater 5, thereby reducing the steam extraction of the steam turbine, increasing the amount of steam involved in the work of the steam turbine, and improving the power generation capacity of the steam turbine during peak hours of electricity consumption.
[0070] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, part of the superheated steam generated by the molten salt steam-water heat exchanger 9 is fed into the main steam header generated by the boiler, and the other part completely replaces the steam extracted from the steam turbine as heating steam for the high-pressure heater 8 and the low-pressure heater 5.
[0071] In one embodiment, a steam bypass channel is provided between the molten salt steam-water heat exchanger 9 and the gas boiler 1 , and a flow limiting valve is provided on the steam bypass channel, which is used to limit the maximum flow of molten salt steam entering the main steam main pipe.
[0072] In one embodiment, the maximum flow rate does not exceed 30% of the main steam flow rate.
[0073] Specifically, a high-pressure steam bypass channel with controllable on / off is provided before the superheated steam generated by the molten salt steam-water heat exchanger 9 is merged into the main steam main pipe connected to the gas boiler 1, so as to control the molten salt heat release steam production flow rate to be less than 30% of the steam main pipe flow rate, thereby ensuring that the temperature change of the steam main pipe is less than ±5°C after the molten salt heat release steam production flow rate is merged into the main pipe.
[0074] This application utilizes the heat energy generated by gas combustion during periods of low electricity prices to heat molten salt, stores it in the form of heat energy in a high-temperature molten salt storage tank, and releases the energy during peak electricity consumption periods, increasing the supply of electricity or steam. This is beneficial to regional power grid load regulation, improving energy utilization, and has good social benefits. Combining the steam generated by the molten salt heat release with the steam generated by the generator boiler through a main pipe can reduce the impact of the mismatch between the two steam parameters on the steam turbine; at the same time, the steam generated by the molten salt heat release is cooled and decompressed and then incorporated into the intermediate stage of the steam turbine, or replaces the steam extraction of the steam turbine, which can increase the power generation of the steam turbine during peak electricity periods and ensure the matching of the steam generated by the molten salt heat release with the steam turbine, making the system more efficient, stable, and reliable.
