Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of heat supply energy conservation in thermal power plants, and relates to a heat network circulating water system and an adjustment method for a cogeneration unit. Background Art

[0002] The driving modes of the heat network circulating water pumps in cogeneration power plants include motor drive and steam turbine drive. Among them, the structure of the electric heat network circulating water pump system is simple and convenient for maintenance, but the plant power consumption rate and power supply coal consumption are relatively high. The driving steam source of the steam-driven heat network circulating water pump is mostly led from the main engine extraction steam pipeline. A part of the steam extracted from the main engine heater enters the steam turbine of the heat network circulating water pump, drives the heat network circulating water pump to rotate, and the exhaust steam enters the steam side system of the heat network heater. Compared with the motor drive, the steam-driven heat network circulating water pump can reduce the plant power consumption rate and power supply coal consumption. However, at present, a small steam turbine is separately set at the heat network first station and is not coupled with the main engine feed water pump steam turbine. Designing a separate steam turbine for the heat network circulating water pump not only requires supporting extraction steam pipelines, exhaust steam pipelines, and lubricating oil systems, but also requires regular maintenance of the oil system. The site infrastructure cost, equipment investment cost, and maintenance cost are relatively high. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0023] The following further describes the present invention in detail with reference to the drawings and embodiments.

[0024] See Figure 1, the heat network circulating water system of the cogeneration unit of the present invention includes a feed water turbine 3 and a boiler feed water pump 4 and a heat network circulating water pump 5 arranged coaxially. The boiler feed water pump 4 is connected to the boiler water supply pipeline, and the heat network circulating water pump 5 is connected to the heat network circulating water supply pipeline; a standby heat network circulating water pump 6 is arranged in the heat network circulating water supply pipeline. The standby heat network circulating water pump 6 is connected in parallel with the heat network circulating water pump 5, and the standby heat network circulating water pump 6 is connected to a standby heat network circulating water pump motor 8 through a hydraulic coupling 7. In the heat network circulating water supply pipeline, a total return valve 9 of the heat network circulating water, an inlet valve 10 of the heat network circulating water pump, the heat network circulating water pump 5, an outlet valve 12 of the heat network circulating water pump, and a total feed valve 14 of the heat network circulating water are arranged in sequence according to the flow direction. Both ends of the standby heat network circulating water pump 6 are respectively connected to one end of a standby heat network circulating water pump inlet valve 11 and a standby heat network circulating water pump outlet valve 13. The other end of the standby heat network circulating water pump inlet valve 11 is connected between the total return valve 9 of the heat network circulating water and the inlet valve 10 of the heat network circulating water pump, and the other end of the standby heat network circulating water pump outlet valve 13 is connected between the outlet valve 12 of the heat network circulating water pump and the total feed valve 14 of the heat network circulating water. The boiler feed water pump 4 and the heat network circulating water pump 5 are jointly driven by the feed water turbine 3 to simultaneously realize boiler water supply and heat network circulating water supply. When the unit load changes, the feed water turbine 3 will change its speed to ensure the boiler water supply requirements, and the outlet flow rate of the heat network circulating water pump 5 will change accordingly. Therefore, a standby heat network circulating water pump 6 connected in parallel with the heat network circulating water pump 5 is provided.

[0025] The heat network circulating water pump 5 is connected to the feed water turbine 3 through an automatic synchronous clutch 16.

[0026] The feed water turbine 3 is provided with an inlet steam control valve. By controlling the opening of the inlet steam control valve, the speed of the feed water turbine 3 can be adjusted. The boiler feed water pump 4 is connected to the deaerator 17. A part of the extraction steam from the middle pressure cylinder 1 of the steam turbine is sent into the deaerator 17 through the four - extraction steam pipeline 2, and another part of the extraction steam is sent into the feed water turbine 3. The exhaust steam of the feed water turbine 3 enters the condenser.

[0027] The inlet steam pressure of the feed water turbine 3 is determined by the parameters of the extraction steam of the steam turbine. The speed of the feed water turbine 3 is controlled with the goal of meeting the boiler water supply pressure and flow rate. The control method is to adjust the opening of the inlet steam control valve of the feed water turbine 3.

[0028] As the unit load changes, the outlet circulating water flow rate of the heat network circulating water pump 5 will change accordingly. In order to ensure the stability of the heat network circulating water supply flow rate and pressure in the system of the present invention, the standby heat network circulating water pump 6 is provided with a hydraulic coupling 7 to change along with the speed of the feed water turbine 3, and then the output of the hydraulic coupling 7 is changed in real time.

[0029] The present invention controls the opening and closing of pipelines in the system through multiple control valves. Among them, the total return valve 9 of the heat network circulating water, the inlet valve 10 of the heat network circulating water pump, the inlet valve 11 of the standby heat network circulating water pump, the outlet valve 12 of the heat network circulating water pump, the outlet valve 13 of the standby heat network circulating water pump, and the total feed valve 14 of the heat network circulating water all adopt electric valves. Further, the inlet valve 10 of the heat network circulating water pump and the inlet valve 11 of the standby heat network circulating water pump are electric globe valves and are always open during the operation of the system; the outlet valve 12 of the heat network circulating water pump and the outlet valve 13 of the standby heat network circulating water pump are electric regulating valves, and the opening degrees are adjusted according to the output changes of the heat network circulating water pump 5 and the standby heat network circulating water pump 6 during the operation of the system.

[0030] The present invention also provides a regulation method for the heat network circulating water system of the above-mentioned cogeneration unit, including the following steps:

[0031] - When the outlet flow rate of the heat network circulating water pump 5 is less than the total flow rate of the heat network circulating water, start the standby heat network circulating water pump 6, open the outlet valve 13 of the standby heat network circulating water pump, and by adjusting the scoop tube opening degree of the hydraulic coupler 7, make the sum of the outlet flow rates of the heat network circulating water pump 5 and the standby heat network circulating water pump 6 meet the requirements of the total flow rate of the heat network circulating water;

[0032] - When the outlet flow rate of the heat network circulating water pump 5 is greater than the total flow rate of the heat network circulating water, stop the standby heat network circulating water pump 6, close the outlet valve 13 of the standby heat network circulating water pump, and by adjusting the opening degree of the outlet valve 12 of the heat network circulating water pump, meet the requirements of the total flow rate of the heat network circulating water.

[0033] The present invention arranges the heat network circulating water pump 5 and the boiler feed water pump 4 coaxially and is jointly driven by the water pump steam turbine 3, thereby reducing the equipment investment cost of the heat network circulating water pump steam turbine and the steam pipeline, reducing the operation and maintenance cost and overhaul and maintenance cost of the heat network circulating water pump steam turbine, and also reducing the area of the heat network first station and the infrastructure investment cost.

[0034] The specific embodiments described above do not limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the technical solution of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
