Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative work.

[0028] Figure 1 The present invention is a flow chart of a method for optimizing pressure of an air compressor station.

[0029] Figure 2 The invention provides a structural schematic diagram of an air compressor station pressure optimization system that uses a mixture of fixed-frequency air compressors and variable-frequency air compressors. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The various preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following description with reference to the accompanying drawings is provided to assist in the understanding of the exemplary embodiments of the present invention as defined by the claims and their equivalents. It includes various specific details to assist in understanding, but they are to be viewed as exemplary only. Therefore, those skilled in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications may be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the present invention. Moreover, in order to make the specification more clear and concise, detailed descriptions of functions and configurations well known in the art will be omitted.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 As shown, a method for optimizing pressure of an air compressor station comprises the following steps:

[0032] S1. Pre-store the number of air compressors in the air compression station, the rated pressure of the power frequency air compressor, the rated gas output of the power frequency air compressor, the rated pressure of the variable frequency air compressor, the rated gas output of the variable frequency air compressor, the lower limit of the load rate of the variable frequency air compressor and the target pressure of the compressed air outlet;

[0033] S2. Set the fluctuation range of the target pressure at the outlet of the air compressor station, the pressure sampling period, the air compressor start delay time, the air compressor loading delay time, the default start and stop sequence and the air compressor long-term shutdown time, and read the start and stop status of the unit and the lower limit of the variable frequency air compressor load rate;

[0034] S3. Calculate the actual flow rate of each air compressor and the lower limit of the flow rate of the frequency converter according to the target pressure at the outlet of the air compressor station, and detect the actual pressure at the outlet of the air compressor station and the actual flow rate at the outlet of the air compressor station; wherein, the calculation method of the actual flow rate and the lower limit of the flow rate of the frequency converter is:

[0035] The relationship between the pressure, temperature, and volume of compressed air follows the gas state equation:

[0036] pV=nRT1

[0037] Where p is the pressure of the gas, in kgf / m 3 ; V is the gas volume, in m 3 ; n is the amount of substance; T1 is the absolute temperature, in K; R represents the gas constant;

[0038] For air compressors, when compressing the same volume of air and ignoring changes in gas temperature, the changes in pressure and volume after compression are inversely proportional:

[0039] p 额定 Q 额定 =p 实际 Q 实际

[0040] Where p 额定 Q is the rated gas pressure of the air compressor. 额定 is the gas flow rate at the rated pressure of the air compressor, p 实际 is the actual gas production pressure of the air compressor, Q 实际 It is the gas flow rate produced by the air compressor under actual pressure;

[0041] The lower limit of the flow rate of the variable frequency air compressor is:

[0042] Q min =Q 实际 R v

[0043] The lower limit of flow is the flow rate under actual pressure * minimum load rate;

[0044] S4. Output the actual pressure signal of the air compressor station outlet to each inverter. Each inverter operates according to the actual pressure signal of the air compressor station outlet, reads the start and stop status, loading and unloading status, and load rate of each air compressor, and records the current loading time of each air compressor;

[0045] S5. Read the actual pressure and flow rate at the outlet of the air compressor station in each pressure sampling cycle, output the actual pressure at the outlet of the air compressor station to the variable frequency air compressor, and calculate the change derivative P' of the outlet pressure of the air compressor station, the difference △P between the outlet pressure fluctuation and the upper or lower limit of the target pressure, and calculate the control time T2 according to the formula T=△P / P'. Control the operation of each air compressor according to the change derivative, control time, current outlet pressure of the air compressor station, current outlet flow rate of the air compressor station, air compressor status and operating data to optimize the outlet pressure, where P'=the difference between the current outlet pressure and the outlet pressure of the previous second.

[0046] Specific optimization method A: When the outlet pressure of the air compressor station is less than the target pressure of the compressed air outlet - the difference between the fluctuation range of the target pressure of the air compressor station outlet, and the variation derivative is ≤0, add one air compressor for every air compressor start-up delay time until the actual outlet pressure of the air compressor station is greater than the target pressure of the compressed air outlet - the difference between the fluctuation range of the target pressure of the air compressor station outlet.

[0047] Among them, when adding air compressors, priority should be given to adding variable frequency air compressors.

[0048] Specific optimization method B: When the outlet pressure of the air compressor station is greater than the compressed air outlet target pressure + the sum of the fluctuation range of the air compressor station outlet target pressure, and the variation derivative is ≥ 0, one air compressor is reduced for every air compressor loading delay time until the outlet pressure of the air compressor station is less than the compressed air outlet target pressure + the sum of the fluctuation range of the air compressor station outlet target pressure.

[0049] Among them, when reducing air compressors, priority should be given to reducing industrial frequency air compressors.

[0050] Specific optimization method C: When the actual pressure at the air compressor station outlet is within the difference between the compressed air outlet target pressure and the air compressor station outlet target pressure fluctuation range or the sum of the compressed air outlet target pressure and the air compressor station outlet target pressure fluctuation range, and the control time is less than the air compressor start-up delay time or the air compressor loading delay time, read the actual flow rate at the air compressor station outlet, and calculate the maximum flow rate and the minimum flow rate of the air compressor currently being loaded and running according to the current actual pressure at the air compressor station outlet, where the maximum flow rate = Q 实际 , minimum flow = Q 实际 R v .

[0051] Exemplarily, if the variation derivative is less than 0, and the maximum flow of the air compressor being loaded is less than the current actual flow at the outlet of the air compressor station, it indicates that the total flow of the currently loaded air compressors can no longer meet the demand. When the control time is less than the air compressor start-up delay time, a pressure signal lower than the outlet pressure of the air compressor station is output to the variable frequency air compressor whose current load rate has not reached 100%, and an additional air compressor is started in accordance with the air compressor start-up sequence. When the control time is greater than the air compressor start-up delay time, the current outlet pressure signal of the air compressor station is output for the operation of each variable frequency air compressor. Exemplarily, a pressure signal 20% lower than the outlet pressure of the air compressor station can be output.

[0052] For example, if the variation derivative is less than 0, and the maximum flow of the air compressor being loaded is greater than the current actual flow at the outlet of the air compressor station, it indicates that the air compressor currently being loaded is not running at full load. When the control time is less than the air compressor loading delay time, a pressure signal lower than the outlet pressure of the air compressor station is output to the frequency converter whose current load rate has not reached 100%. When the control time is greater than the air compressor loading delay time, the current outlet pressure of the air compressor station is output to each variable frequency air compressor for operation; for example, a pressure signal 20% lower than the outlet pressure of the air compressor station can be output.

[0053] For example, if the variation derivative is greater than 0, and the minimum flow rate of the air compressor being loaded is greater than the current actual flow rate at the outlet of the air compressor station, it indicates that the lowest load of the air compressor currently being loaded is greater than the current gas demand. When the control time is less than the air compressor loading delay time, unload one industrial frequency air compressor in the start-stop sequence. If there is no industrial frequency air compressor currently running, stop one variable frequency air compressor.

[0054] For example, if the variation derivative is greater than 0, and the minimum flow of the air compressor being loaded is less than the current actual flow at the outlet of the air compressor station, when the control time is less than the air compressor loading delay time, a pressure signal higher than the actual pressure at the outlet of the air compressor station is output to the frequency converter whose current load rate has not reached the lower limit of the load rate, so that the frequency converter air compressor can quickly reduce the load rate. When the control time is greater than the air compressor loading delay time, the current air compressor station outlet pressure signal is output to each frequency converter air compressor as a basis for operation.

[0055] S6. If the unloading time of the industrial frequency air compressor currently in unloading operation exceeds the idle long downtime, it will be shut down.

[0056] like Figure 2 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure also provides an air compression station pressure optimization system that uses a mixture of fixed-frequency air compressors and variable-frequency air compressors, including: a processing device 10, an air compression station outlet pressure sensor 11, and an air compression station outlet flow meter 12.

[0057] The processing device is used to store the number of air compressors in the air compressor station, the rated pressure of the industrial frequency air compressor, the rated gas output of the industrial frequency air compressor, the rated pressure of the variable frequency air compressor, the rated gas output of the variable frequency air compressor, the lower limit of the variable frequency air compressor load rate and the compressed air outlet target pressure; the processing device is also used for the staff to set the fluctuation range of the air compressor station outlet target pressure, the pressure sampling period, the air compressor start delay time, the air compressor loading delay time, the default start and stop sequence of the air compressor, the long-term downtime and two thresholds; the processing device is also used to read the start and stop status of the unit, and to record the current loading time of each air compressor; the outlet of the variable frequency air compressor is also provided with a pressure sensor (not shown). The processing device performs the following method:

[0058] Read the status and operation data of each air compressor, output the actual pressure signal of the air compressor station outlet to each variable frequency air compressor, and each air compressor operates according to the actual pressure of the air compressor station outlet;

[0059] The actual pressure and flow rate at the outlet of the air compressor station are read in each pressure sampling cycle, and the actual pressure at the outlet of the air compressor station is output to the variable frequency air compressor, so that each variable frequency air compressor operates according to the actual pressure at the outlet of the air compressor station, and the change derivative and control time of the pressure at the outlet of the air compressor station are calculated;

[0060] According to the threshold, fluctuation range of the target pressure at the air compressor station outlet, variation derivative, current air compressor station outlet pressure, inverter flow lower limit and control time, each air compressor is controlled to optimize the outlet pressure;

[0061] If the unloading time of the industrial frequency air compressor currently in unloading operation exceeds the idle long downtime, it will be shut down.

[0062] Specifically, the methods for optimizing the outlet pressure include:

[0063] Method A: When the outlet pressure of the air compressor station is less than at least one threshold value and the variation derivative is ≤0, one air compressor is added for every air compressor start-up delay time until the outlet pressure of the air compressor station is greater than the at least one threshold value;

[0064] Method B: when the outlet pressure of the air compressor station is greater than at least one threshold value and when the variation derivative is ≥ 0, one air compressor is reduced for every air compressor loading delay time until the outlet pressure of the air compressor station is less than the at least one threshold value;

[0065] Method C: When the outlet pressure of the air compressor station is at at least one threshold value and the control time is less than the air compressor start-up delay time or the air compressor loading delay time, the current actual flow rate at the outlet of the air compressor station is read, and the maximum flow rate and the minimum flow rate of the air compressor currently being loaded are calculated according to the current actual pressure. Then, each air compressor is controlled according to the variation derivative, the current load rate of the variable frequency air compressor, the lower limit of the load rate of the variable frequency air compressor, and the maximum flow rate and the minimum flow rate of the air compressor currently being loaded.

[0066] Specifically, when adding an air compressor in the method A, the variable frequency air compressor is configured to have a higher priority than the industrial frequency air compressor; when reducing an air compressor in the method B, the industrial frequency air compressor is configured to have a higher priority than the variable frequency air compressor.

[0067] Specifically, the threshold values ​​include: the difference between the compressed air outlet target pressure and the air compression station outlet target pressure fluctuation range; and the sum of the compressed air outlet target pressure and the air compression station outlet target pressure fluctuation range.

[0068] The embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a non-volatile tangible storage medium having computer executable instructions stored thereon, and when the computer program product is run on a terminal device, the terminal device can implement the above-mentioned air compression station pressure optimization method when executing it.

[0069] The disclosed embodiment also provides an air compressor station pressure optimization device that uses a mixture of fixed-frequency air compressors and variable-frequency air compressors, including: a processor and a memory, wherein the memory stores computer executable code, and when the computer executable code is executed by the processor, the above-mentioned air compressor station pressure optimization method can be implemented.

[0070] Finally, it should be noted that the above series of processing includes not only processing executed in time series in the order described here, but also processing executed in parallel or separately rather than in time series.
