Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of photovoltaic all-electric kitchens and energy management optimization, and in particular to a photovoltaic all-electric kitchen and energy management optimization technology. Background Art

[0002] As energy crisis and environmental pollution become increasingly serious, solar photovoltaic power generation, as a clean green energy, has become a hot topic of concern and research in countries around the world and has been gradually promoted to people's daily lives. The independent grid connection of distributed power stations has become the main trend of microgrid development.

[0003] Photovoltaic all-electric kitchen refers to a kitchen where all energy-consuming equipment in the kitchen abandons traditional fossil energy and uses photovoltaic power generation as the only energy source, which is capable of meeting all cooking methods and production needs. Its biggest advantage is energy saving, high efficiency, safety and reliability. The thermal efficiency of the electromagnetic cooker is as high as 90% or more, and the heating speed is fast. It is 30% to 60% more efficient than traditional gas cookers, reducing carbon emissions by 30% to 50%, and reducing energy consumption by 68% to 77%. At the same time, the all-electric kitchen uses electricity without open flames, precise temperature control, less oil smoke, and avoids safety hazards such as gas leakage and oil pan explosion. In the all-electric smart home system, short-term power outages of most household loads will not have a drastic impact on user comfort, and the energy consumption is relatively stable, which is an important part of the load scheduling of the power system. However, due to the frequent use and special status of the kitchen, the energy management optimization for kitchen equipment remains at a low level and cannot be scheduled through the existing direct load control. Reasonable optimization of photovoltaic all-electric kitchen energy management enables equipment to participate in demand-side load scheduling, which is of great significance to the development of "grid-user" interactive technology. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present invention provides a photovoltaic all-electric kitchen and energy management optimization system, which includes photovoltaic cells, storage batteries, water supply systems, cookers, and main control equipment with energy management functions, among which the water supply system mainly includes a water supply tank and a water supply treatment device; the energy management method in the main control equipment mainly includes a data processing module, a power prediction module, an optimization scheduling model module, a scheduling scheme generation module, and other parts. In the normal mode, the cooker and the water supply system do not work in staggered peaks. Whether each component operates depends on the current needs of the kitchen. During peak power consumption, the operation of the water supply system increases the pressure on the power supply. When the power production capacity is in excess, the electric energy can be fed back to the local power grid.

[0005] The present invention is achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0006] The photovoltaic all-electric kitchen and energy management optimization system uses STM32 as the main control, and establishes a digital twin model of photovoltaic power generation power, kitchen load, and charge state through the collected historical data, and then performs energy management optimization, so that the results can provide guidance for the operation of the all-electric kitchen at the physical level to ensure the stability and economy of the kitchen operation.

[0007] The optimization method of the photovoltaic all-electric kitchen and energy management optimization system comprises the following steps:

[0008] (1) Summarize the operation rules and energy storage characteristics of the water supply system and evaluate its energy storage potential;

[0009] (2) Establish digital twin models of photovoltaic power generation and batteries and complete model calibration;

[0010] (3) Calculate the cost function and power quality function, and construct the optimization constraints and objective function;

[0011] (4) Establish an all-electric kitchen energy management model in STM32 to provide guidance for physical kitchen operations;

[0012] The step (1) is based on the current system equipment configuration and operating parameters, and summarizes the working rules of the water supply system through historical operating data, including: the working energy consumption of the water supply treatment device and the water storage capacity of the water supply tank, so as to evaluate the energy storage potential of the water supply system. The decision variable is set to the working energy consumption of the water supply system at each moment, and the water supply system power is set to 0 at 7-8, 11-12, and 19-21 every day by default.

[0013] The step (2) performs digital modeling on the photovoltaic power generation and storage battery in the all-electric kitchen, and completes the mathematical equations describing the physical laws of each entity object. The output power model of the photovoltaic cell is:

[0014]

[0015] Where: P PV is the actual output power of the photovoltaic cell, G INC is the actual solar radiation intensity, G STC is the solar radiation intensity under standard test conditions, P STC is the maximum output power of the photovoltaic cell under standard test conditions, k is the power temperature coefficient, Tr is the rated temperature of the battery, and Te is the actual temperature of the battery. The state of charge is an important parameter of the battery, which indicates the ratio of the remaining capacity of the battery to its fully charged state capacity. The relationship between the state of charge and power of the energy storage battery is:

[0016]

[0017] Where: SOC i+1and SOC i are the state of charge of the energy storage battery at two adjacent moments, Cap bat is the total capacity of the energy storage battery. The output state of the device is collected through stm32, and the photovoltaic power generation and charge state are predicted through the prediction algorithm. The difference between the simulated state and the actual measurement is compared, and the difference between the two is minimized by adjusting the parameters of the digital twin model, thereby achieving the purpose of digital twin model parameter calibration.

[0018] The objective function construction process in step (3): Energy management optimization problems generally include stability objectives and economic objectives. The economic objective mainly reflects the power quality, that is, the minimum voltage deviation, while the economic objective includes the highest system economic cost. Therefore, the objective function expression of energy management optimization is

[0019]

[0020] In the formula: ΔU is the voltage deviation, C is the economic cost of the all-electric kitchen. In order to protect the battery and extend its service life, the battery cannot be over-discharged or over-charged, and the maximum and minimum state of charge constraints are:

[0021] SOC min ≤SOC≤SOC max (11)

[0022] Where: SOC min , SOC max Indicates the upper and lower limits of the battery's state of charge.

[0023] The step (4) embeds the all-electric kitchen energy management model into the STM32 controller, simulates the photovoltaic power generation power and charge state required for energy optimization, predicts and deduce to obtain the net water power and heating power of the water supply system at each moment corresponding to the minimum objective function value, and then feeds back the obtained information to the actual physical kitchen system through the hardware system, thereby guiding the efficient operation of the kitchen.

[0024] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: comprehensively considering the above-mentioned all-electric kitchen component model, objective function, and constraint conditions, adopting a non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm, setting data such as the maximum number of iterations, population number, crossover rate, and mutation rate, and embedding the optimization algorithm of the STM32 controller to deduce and optimize the energy management optimization of the all-electric kitchen, guide the operation of the actual kitchen system, and realize the combination of virtual and real. At the same time, digital twins help to deal with the uncertainty in the energy management optimization of all-electric kitchens, improve the power supply quality of photovoltaic-powered all-electric kitchens, and improve the working efficiency and life of kitchen appliances.

[0033] See also Figure 4 The optimization algorithm flow of a photovoltaic all-electric kitchen and energy management optimization system of the present invention comprises the following steps (1) to (4):

[0034] Said Figure 4In step (1), based on the equipment composition and operating parameters of the previous system, the working rules of the water supply system are summarized through historical operating data, including: the energy consumption of the water supply treatment device and the water storage capacity of the water supply tank, so as to evaluate the energy storage potential of the water supply system. The decision variables are set as the water purification power and heating power of the water supply system at each moment. The default water supply system power is 0 at 7-8, 11-12, and 19-21 every day. The battery is connected to the water supply system. During the time period when the cooking equipment does not need to work, photovoltaic power generation first meets the needs of the water supply system, including the demand for purified water and hot water. The excess power is stored in the battery to reduce the pressure of photovoltaic power generation during peak power consumption.

[0035] Said Figure 4 In step (2), the photovoltaic power generation, kitchen load, and battery in the all-electric kitchen are digitally modeled to complete the mathematical equations describing the physical laws of each entity object. The output power model of the photovoltaic cell is:

[0036]

[0037] Where: P PV is the actual output power of the photovoltaic cell, G INC is the actual solar radiation intensity, G STC is the solar radiation intensity under standard test conditions, P STC is the maximum output power of the photovoltaic cell under standard test conditions, k is the power temperature coefficient, Tr is the rated temperature of the cell, and Te is the actual temperature of the cell.

For various devices or systems in the photovoltaic all-electric kitchen, although relevant mathematical models have been established according to their operating rules, there are a large number of random parameters in the model (such as power temperature coefficient, solar radiation intensity, etc.) that need to be determined. Setting these parameters through empirical data may cause the set parameters to be inconsistent with the actual parameters, which in turn leads to inaccurate dynamic models. The photovoltaic power generation power and state of charge are predicted through the prediction algorithm, and the difference between the simulated state and the actual measurement is compared. The difference between the two is minimized by adjusting the parameters of the digital twin model, thereby achieving the purpose of digital twin model parameter calibration.

[0059] Where: P m is the water supply system power at time m, P str To meet the power required for one day's water supply. In order to protect the battery and extend its service life, the battery cannot be over-discharged or over-charged. The maximum and minimum constraints of the state of charge are:

[0061] Where: SOC min , SOC maxRespectively represent the upper and lower limits of the battery's state of charge.

[0062] Said Figure 4 Step (4) completes the operation analysis. The real-time operation model is developed using the stm32 programming environment, which mainly includes the all-electric kitchen component model, objective function, and constraints. Digital twins are used to deal with uncertainties such as renewable energy generation in the energy management optimization of all-electric kitchens. The non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm is used to set the maximum number of iterations, population number, crossover rate, mutation rate and other data to perform deduction and optimization on the energy management optimization of all-electric kitchens, so as to obtain the water purification power and heating power of the water supply system at each moment corresponding to the minimum objective function value, thereby obtaining the optimal operation plan.
