Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of intelligent operation technology of building air conditioning systems, specifically involving a method and system for multi-scenario heterogeneous fusion and multi-system collaborative optimization of air conditioning systems in large hydropower stations. Background Technology
[0002] Building air conditioning systems are a core component of building energy conservation and intelligent management, and their operational efficiency directly impacts the overall energy efficiency of the building and the user experience. While some progress has been made in intelligent operation technology for building air conditioning systems, common technical problems remain prominent: insufficient adaptability to multiple scenarios, lack of accurate perception and prediction of heterogeneous load demands from different functional areas (such as underground equipment spaces and above-ground office spaces); and imperfect cross-system collaboration mechanisms, with each subsystem (cooling source, terminal, and distribution) operating independently without forming a complete optimization chain, resulting in high system energy consumption, underutilization of equipment operating efficiency, and difficulty in balancing energy conservation goals with user comfort requirements.
[0003] As special-function buildings, large hydropower stations require air conditioning systems that simultaneously meet the heterogeneous demands of two typical scenarios: underground equipment areas need to maintain a stable temperature and humidity environment to ensure the safe operation of electrical equipment, and the heat dissipation load is relatively stable due to the heat storage characteristics of the rock walls; above-ground office or control room areas are greatly affected by fluctuations in personnel activity and meteorological factors, resulting in dynamic changes in load demand. However, traditional hydropower station air conditioning systems are not optimized for these different scenarios. Each subsystem operates independently, and the cooling source capacity cannot be complementaryly allocated across systems; equipment operation is not optimized based on its performance curves, often operating in low-efficiency conditions; and the parameters of terminal equipment are fixed, making it unable to adapt to load changes. This leads to insufficient environmental stability in underground equipment areas, affects the comfort of office personnel, and causes energy waste. Summary of the Invention
