Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power grid peak shaving and integrated energy utilization technology, specifically to a heat pump coupled energy storage peak shaving system and method. Background Technology
[0002] With increasing fluctuations in the net load of the power system, traditional power sources and integrated energy systems need to undertake peak-shaving tasks at higher frequencies and with greater magnitudes. In the operation of some power generation or supply systems, such as nuclear power, geothermal power, or industrial waste heat power generation, low-parameter heat with low temperature, pressure, or work capacity is typically continuously generated. Although this type of low-parameter heat has good stability, its energy conversion efficiency is low when directly used for power generation or peak shaving due to temperature limitations.
[0003] Under the existing operation and regulation mode, the aforementioned low-parameter heat is often difficult to fully absorb during off-peak hours. Simply reducing system output can easily lead to insufficient utilization of the underlying heat; if this heat is directly discharged, it will reduce the overall comprehensive energy utilization efficiency of the system. On the other hand, during peak hours, the grid load demand is higher, and high-parameter power generation systems often need to have stronger generation capacity and peak-shaving response capabilities.
[0004] In existing technologies, low-parameter heat sources and high-parameter power generation systems mostly operate independently, lacking effective energy interaction and coordinated matching. This makes it difficult to utilize low-parameter heat through cross-time conversion, and also makes it difficult to effectively improve the power generation capacity of high-parameter power generation systems.

[0023] In this embodiment, the low-parameter heat source unit 1 is used to output a heat source medium carrying heat. In actual operation, the low-parameter heat source unit 1 often continuously generates low-grade heat with low temperature and pressure. The low-parameter heat source unit 1 contains a circulating heat source medium. Specifically, the low-parameter heat source unit 1 includes a low-parameter heat source body 11, a heat extraction valve 12, a heat source-side expander 13, a heat source-side cooler 14, and a heat source-side circulating pump 15. (Reference) Figure 2 The heat source medium inlet of the heat extraction valve 12 is connected to the heat source medium outlet side of the low-parameter heat source body 11. The first outlet of the heat extraction valve 12 serves as the first heat source medium outlet and is connected to the heat source medium inlet of the heat source side expander 13. The heat source medium outlet of the heat source side expander 13 is connected to the heat source medium inlet of the heat source side cooler 14. The heat source medium outlet of the heat source side cooler 14 is connected to the heat source medium inlet of the heat source side circulating pump 15. The heat source medium outlet of the heat source side circulating pump 15 is connected to the heat source medium inlet of the low-parameter heat source body 11. Through the above settings, the heat extraction valve 12 can flexibly adjust the flow ratio. Unused heat source medium enters the heat source side expander 13 to perform work, and then returns to the low-parameter heat source body 11 after cooling and pumping, achieving a stable circulation of the heat source working medium. This embodiment, by setting up a heat extraction valve, a heat source-side expander, and a heat source-side cooler, can flexibly adjust the flow rate of the heat source medium entering the heat pump heating unit 2, while expanding and cooling the heat source medium that does not enter the heat pump heating unit 2, further improving the system operation flexibility and energy cascade utilization level on the low-parameter heat source body 11 side.
[0024] It should be noted that the low-parameter heat source unit 1 may include at least one of the following: nuclear power generation system, geothermal power generation system, solar thermal power generation system, biomass power generation system, waste incineration power generation system, industrial waste heat power generation system, gas turbine waste heat power generation system, fuel cell waste heat power generation system, and organic Rankine cycle power generation system.

Specifically, the heat pump temperature-raising unit 2 includes a heat pump absorber 21, a compressor 22, a heat pump exothermic generator 23, and an expander 24. (Reference) Figure 2 The other outlet of the heat valve 12 serves as the second heat source medium outlet, connected to the heat source medium inlet of the heat pump absorber 21.

During off-peak electricity hours, the heat pump working fluid absorbs low-grade heat in the heat pump absorber 21. This heat pump working fluid then enters the compressor 22, where it performs work to increase temperature and pressure. The heated heat pump working fluid then enters the heat pump exothermic device 23, releasing high-grade heat. After releasing heat, the heat pump working fluid is cooled and depressurized by the expander 24 and then returned to the heat pump receiver 21 to complete the cycle. This embodiment achieves the heating and pressurization and cooling and depressurization cycle of the heat pump working fluid by setting up a compressor and an expander and cooperating with each other, efficiently converting low-grade heat into high-grade heat.

The heat pump working fluid may be water vapor, air, nitrogen, helium, argon, carbon dioxide, ammonia, hydrocarbon working fluid, hydrofluoroolefin working fluid, or a mixture thereof.
[0027] In this embodiment, the heat storage unit 3 is heat-exchange connected to the heat pump heating unit 2. The heat storage unit 3 absorbs and stores the heat output by the heat pump heating unit 2. The heat storage unit 3 contains a circulating heat storage medium. Specifically, the heat storage unit 3 includes a heat storage medium pump 34, a high-temperature storage tank 32, a heat release heat exchanger 33, and a low-temperature storage tank 31. (Reference) Figure 2 The heat storage medium outlet of the heat storage medium pump 34 is connected to the heat storage medium inlet of the heat pump heat exchanger 23. The heat storage medium entering the heat pump heat exchanger 23 exchanges heat with the heat pump working fluid. The heat storage medium inlet of the high-temperature storage tank 32 is connected to the heat storage medium outlet of the heat pump heat exchanger 23. The heat storage medium inlet of the heat release heat exchanger 33 is connected to the heat storage medium outlet of the high-temperature storage tank 32. The heat storage medium inlet of the low-temperature storage tank 31 is connected to the heat storage medium outlet of the heat release heat exchanger 33. The heat storage medium outlet of the low-temperature storage tank 31 is connected to the heat storage medium inlet of the heat storage medium pump 34. In heat storage mode, the heat storage medium pump 34 sends the heat storage medium from the low-temperature storage tank 31 into the heat pump heat exchanger 23. After absorbing heat, the heat storage medium enters the high-temperature storage tank 32 for storage. In heat release mode, the high-temperature heat storage medium in the high-temperature storage tank 32 enters the heat release heat exchanger 33 to release heat, and the released heat storage medium flows back to the low-temperature storage tank 31. This embodiment achieves stable storage of high-grade heat during off-peak hours and efficient release during peak hours through the cooperation of high-temperature storage tank 32, low-temperature storage tank 31, heat pump heat exchanger 23 and heat release heat exchanger 33, thereby ensuring the feasibility of energy transfer across time periods.
[0028] It should be noted that the thermal storage unit 3 can employ at least one of sensible heat storage, latent heat storage, or thermochemical heat storage. When latent heat storage is used, the cryogenic storage tank 31 and the high-temperature storage tank 32 can be replaced by a phase change thermal storage device. When thermochemical heat storage is used, the cryogenic storage tank 31 and the high-temperature storage tank 32 can be replaced by a thermochemical heat storage reactor. The thermal storage medium can be molten salt, heat transfer oil, water, concrete, ceramics, sand and gravel, metal, slag, solid particles, inorganic salts, hydrated salts, paraffin wax, metal alloys, adsorbent materials, thermochemical reaction materials, or combinations thereof.
[0029] In this embodiment, the high-parameter power generation unit 4 is heat-exchange connected to the thermal storage unit 3. The high-parameter power generation unit 4 absorbs the heat released by the thermal storage unit 3 and generates electricity. The high-parameter power generation unit 4 contains a circulating working fluid. Specifically, the high-parameter power generation unit 4 includes a steam turbine 41, a cooler 42, and a working fluid pump 43. (Reference) Figure 2The working fluid inlet of the steam turbine 41 is connected to the working fluid outlet of the heat release heat exchanger 33. The working fluid inlet of the cooler 42 is connected to the working fluid outlet of the steam turbine 41. The working fluid inlet of the working fluid pump 43 is connected to the working fluid outlet of the cooler 42. The working fluid outlet of the working fluid pump 43 is connected to the working fluid inlet of the heat release heat exchanger 33. The working fluid entering the heat release heat exchanger 33 exchanges heat with the heat storage medium. During peak power periods, the circulating working fluid of the high-parameter power generation unit 4 absorbs the heat released by the high-temperature heat storage medium in the heat release heat exchanger 33. The heated circulating working fluid enters the steam turbine 41 to expand and perform work, thereby increasing the power generation capacity. After performing work, the working fluid is cooled by the cooler 42 and then sent back to the heat release heat exchanger 33 by the working fluid pump 43 to form a cycle. The high-parameter power generation unit 4 provided in this embodiment enables the high-grade heat released by the thermal storage unit 3 to directly heat the power generation working fluid and drive the steam turbine 41 to do work, ensuring the system's power generation capacity during peak power periods.
[0030] It should be noted that the high-parameter power generation unit 4 may include at least one of the following: a steam Rankine cycle power generation system, a gas-fired power generation system, a combined cycle power generation system, a solar thermal power generation system, a biomass power generation system, a waste incineration power generation system, a geothermal power generation system, an organic Rankine cycle power generation system, and a supercritical carbon dioxide Brayton cycle power generation system.

Correspondingly, the steam turbine 41 may also be replaced by other power-operating expansion machinery such as a gas turbine.
[0031] In addition, the heat pump-coupled energy storage peak-shaving system 100 also includes a control unit 5. (Reference) Figure 1 The control unit 5 is connected to the low-parameter heat source unit 1, the heat pump heating unit 2, the thermal storage unit 3, and the high-parameter power generation unit 4 via signals. The control unit 5 can dynamically adjust the heat extraction capacity of the heat extraction valve 12, the operating load of the heat pump heating unit 2, the charging and discharging power of the thermal storage unit 3, and the heat received by the high-parameter power generation unit 4 based on the grid load demand, the operating parameters of the low-parameter heat source unit 1, the operating status of the heat pump heating unit 2, the thermal storage status of the thermal storage unit 3, and the output demand of the high-parameter power generation unit 4. This embodiment achieves comprehensive and coordinated control of each unit through the control unit 5, enabling the heat pump-coupled energy storage peak-shaving system 100 to dynamically adjust the heat extraction, heating, storage, and release processes according to the real-time load demand of the grid, thereby enhancing the system's load response speed and automated peak-shaving performance.
[0032] The heat pump-coupled energy storage peak-shaving system 100 provided in this embodiment can effectively solve the technical problems of difficulty in absorbing low-grade heat during off-peak hours and insufficient power generation capacity of high-parameter power generation systems during peak hours. Through the coupling of the low-parameter heat source unit 1 and the heat pump temperature-raising unit 2, the heat pump absorbs low-parameter heat that is originally difficult to utilize efficiently during off-peak hours and significantly upgrades it to high-grade heat. Combined with the heat storage buffering effect of the heat storage unit 3, the converted high-grade heat is stored across time periods. During peak hours, the heat storage unit 3 releases the high-grade heat to the high-parameter power generation unit 4, heating the power generation working fluid and driving the turbine 41 to generate electricity. This system structure deeply integrates heat quality improvement, cross-time energy storage, and peak-shaving power generation, not only avoiding the waste of low-grade heat during off-peak hours but also significantly improving the power output and response speed of the high-parameter power generation unit 4 during peak hours, greatly enhancing the overall power system's flexible peak-shaving capability and comprehensive energy utilization efficiency.
[0033] <Second Implementation Method> This embodiment provides a heat pump coupled energy storage peak shaving method, applicable to the heat pump coupled energy storage peak shaving system 100 described in the first embodiment. (Reference) Figure 3 The method includes the following steps: Step S1: The low-parameter heat source unit 1 outputs a heat source medium containing heat and introduces it into the heat pump heating unit 2. Specifically, during off-peak electricity hours, the control unit 5 opens the heat extraction valve 12, allowing a portion of the heat source-side working fluid in the low-parameter heat source body 11 to enter the heat pump absorber 21. After releasing heat in the heat pump absorber 21, the heat source medium returns to the low-parameter heat source body 11 via the heat source-side cooler 14 and the heat source-side circulation pump 15. The low-grade heat carried by this heat source medium is at a temperature of 300°C. + 50℃.
[0034] Heat pump circulation heating step S2: The heat pump heating unit 2 absorbs and heats the heat source medium. Specifically, the heat pump working fluid absorbs the low-grade heat in the heat pump absorber 21, and then enters the compressor 22 for heating and pressurization. The heated heat pump working fluid enters the heat pump exotherm 23 to release the high-grade heat. After releasing heat, the heat pump working fluid is cooled and depressurized by the expander 24 and returns to the heat pump absorber 21 to complete the cycle. Through this heat pump circulation process, for example, approximately 300°C can be heated. + The heat from a low-grade heat source at 50°C is significantly increased to approximately 620°C. + High-grade heat at 50℃.
[0035] Energy storage step S3: During off-peak electricity hours, heat from the heat pump heating unit 2 is input into the heat storage unit 3 for storage. Specifically, the heat storage medium pump 34 is started, causing the heat storage medium in the low-temperature storage tank 31 to enter the heat pump heat exchanger 23 to absorb the high-grade heat released by the heat pump working fluid. After absorbing heat, the heat storage medium becomes a high-temperature heat storage medium and enters the high-temperature storage tank 32 for storage, thereby achieving effective energy enrichment and storage during periods of low grid load.
[0036] Step S4 for releasing heat to generate electricity: During peak power periods, the heat stored in the thermal storage unit 3 is released to generate electricity. Specifically, when the power grid is in peak power period, the control unit 5 activates the relevant thermal storage side pump valves, allowing the high-temperature thermal storage medium in the high-temperature storage tank 32 to enter the heat release heat exchanger 33. The high-temperature thermal storage medium transfers heat to the circulating working fluid of the high-parameter power generation unit 4 in the heat release heat exchanger 33. The released thermal storage medium returns to the low-temperature storage tank 31. The heated circulating working fluid, such as feedwater, main steam, or supercritical carbon dioxide, enters the turbine 41 to expand and perform work, thereby effectively increasing the power output of the high-parameter power generation unit 4.
[0037] Dynamic control step S5: During the overall system operation, the control unit 5 dynamically adjusts the heat extraction capacity of the heat extraction valve 12, the operating load of the heat pump heating unit 2, the charging and discharging power of the heat storage unit 3, and the heat received by the high-parameter power generation unit 4 based on the acquired grid load demand, the operating parameters of the low-parameter heat source unit 1, the operating status of the heat pump heating unit 2, the heat storage status of the heat storage unit 3, and the output demand of the high-parameter power generation unit 4. Through closed-loop coordinated regulation, the system's operating conditions are ensured to remain stable.
[0038] The heat pump-coupled energy storage peak-shaving method provided in this embodiment actively absorbs low-grade heat from low-parameter heat sources during off-peak hours and converts it into high-grade heat for storage through time-series control and cross-system energy allocation. During peak hours, this high-grade heat is then released directionally to high-parameter power generation systems. This method achieves efficient cross-time utilization of low-grade heat, not only fully utilizing idle heat sources but also effectively solving the problem of limited power generation capacity of high-parameter power generation systems during peak hours, significantly improving the overall peak-shaving response capability and comprehensive energy utilization efficiency of the system.
[0039] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
