The gas turbine subsystem in the solar thermal complementary gas-steam combined cycle subsystem is primarily used for power generation, and the exhaust gas from the gas turbine subsystem drives the steam cycle subsystem in the solar thermal complementary gas-steam combined cycle subsystem. Solar collectors are used to partially replace the heat load of the first-stage high-pressure economizer and the second-stage high-pressure economizer in the waste heat boiler. When the solar radiation intensity reaches a certain level, the solar collectors begin to operate, increasing the circulating mass in the waste heat boiler and thereby increasing the power generation of the steam turbine. Simultaneously, this system extracts steam from the exhaust of the intermediate-pressure cylinder of the steam turbine in the waste heat boiler to heat domestic hot water, which is then output to users.

[0043] See also Figure 1 The working process of the combined cycle cooling, heating and power supply system integrating fuel cells and solar energy of the present invention is described as follows.

[0044] Methane is fed into the gas mixer 101 of the solid oxide fuel cell subsystem and the combustion chamber 202 of the gas turbine subsystem. The solid oxide fuel cell undergoes an electrochemical reaction, generating electricity. Methane burns in the combustion chamber 202 of the gas turbine subsystem, and the exhaust from combustion chamber 202 drives the gas turbine 203 to generate electricity, which is then output by the first generator 204. The exhaust from the solid oxide fuel cell and the exhaust from gas turbine 203 mix and then drive the steam cycle subsystem in the solar thermal complementary gas-steam combined cycle subsystem. In the steam cycle subsystem, the waste heat boiler is used as the heating surface carrier, and the first and second solar collectors 316 and 318 are used to replace part of the heat load of the first-stage high-pressure economizer 302 and the second-stage high-pressure economizer 304 in the waste heat boiler. When the solar radiation intensity reaches a certain level, the solar collectors 316 and 318 start to work, and the circulating work mass in the waste heat boiler increases, thereby increasing the power generation of the turbines 306, 307, and 308; at the same time, this combined power supply system extracts steam from the exhaust of the first heat exchanger group (also called the low-pressure steam drum) 301 in the waste heat boiler and the steam exhaust of the intermediate-pressure cylinder 307 of the steam turbine to drive the double-effect absorption lithium bromide refrigerator 315 to work and heat domestic hot water, and outputs cooling load (chilled water outlet) and heating load (hot water) to the user side.

[0045] Specifically, when the combined supply system operates under a certain solar radiation intensity, the water supply at the outlet of the high-pressure water supply pump 314 is divided into two lines. In one line, the water supply at the outlet of the high-pressure water supply pump 314 enters the first solar collector 316 to absorb solar thermal energy. When the outlet water supply temperature of the first solar collector 316 is the same as the outlet water supply temperature of the first-stage high-pressure economizer 302, the outlet water supply of the first solar collector 316 and the outlet water supply of the first-stage high-pressure economizer 302 enter the first water supply mixer 317 for mixing. The water supply at the outlet of the first water supply mixer 317 is divided into two lines. In one line, the water supply at the outlet of the first water supply mixer 317 enters the second solar collector 318 to absorb solar thermal energy. When the water supply temperature at the outlet of the second solar collector 318 is the same as the water supply temperature at the outlet of the second-stage high-pressure economizer 304, the water supply at the outlet of the second solar collector 318 and the water supply at the outlet of the second-stage high-pressure economizer 304 enter the second water supply mixer 319 and are mixed before entering the high-pressure evaporator of the third heat exchanger group 305 composed of a medium-pressure superheater, a high-pressure evaporator, a reheater and a high-pressure superheater.

[0046] When the solar radiation intensity is insufficient, the combined power supply system maintains normal operation by burning methane. The fuel cell, gas turbine 203 and steam turbine (including the high-pressure cylinder 306, the intermediate-pressure cylinder 307 and the low-pressure cylinder 308 of the steam turbine) generate electricity normally. At the same time, the double-effect absorption lithium bromide refrigerator 315 and the feed water heat exchanger 310 provide cooling load and heat domestic hot water to the user side.

[0047] The present invention discloses a combined cycle cooling, heating and power system integrating fuel cells and solar energy. The combined system includes a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) subsystem, a solar thermal complementary gas steam combined cycle (ISCC) subsystem and a double-effect absorption lithium bromide refrigeration subsystem. The combined system first uses the high-temperature exhaust gas generated by the solid oxide fuel cell to preheat the air entering the fuel cell cathode, and then mixes it with the exhaust gas of the gas turbine subsystem and enters the waste heat boiler together; the waste heat boiler is used as the waste heat recovery carrier, and solar energy is used to replace part of the heat load of the first-stage high-pressure economizer and the second-stage high-pressure economizer in the waste heat boiler, thereby increasing the work capacity of the bottom cycle. In order to fully meet the user's cooling and heating load requirements, the combined system extracts part of the steam from the low-pressure drum of the waste heat boiler, and uses this steam to drive the double-effect absorption lithium bromide refrigeration system. In addition, the combined system extracts part of the steam at the exhaust of the intermediate-pressure cylinder and uses this steam to heat domestic hot water. Therefore, the combined power supply system provided by the present invention can effectively utilize the waste heat generated by high-temperature fuel cells to reduce energy losses in the system while meeting the user's various energy needs for cooling, heating, and electricity; and efficiently utilize renewable energy - solar energy to improve the system's work capacity.

[0048] The following is a specific example to illustrate the technical effects of the cogeneration system provided by the present invention. In this example, the fuel used is natural gas transmitted from the West to the East, and the weather data is a typical day in Lhasa. Table 1 lists the basic data for thermodynamic analysis of the cogeneration system.

[0050]

[0051] As shown in Table 1, when the combined power generation system is operated under stable working conditions on a typical day in Lhasa, its energy efficiency is 61.9% when considering the solar heat input. The efficiency is 52.61%.

[0052] The present invention discloses a combined cycle cooling, heating and power system integrating fuel cells and solar energy. In response to the current situation where traditional cogeneration systems lack thermodynamic advantages, a method of coupling high-temperature solid oxide fuel cells in the system is proposed. Since the exhaust temperature of the fuel cell is comparable to that of the gas turbine, the two are mixed and then passed to the waste heat boiler to ensure the cascade utilization of energy. This not only effectively utilizes the high-temperature waste heat of the solid oxide fuel cell, but also reduces energy losses in the system. The combined supply system has a reasonable structure coupled with a trough-type solar collector, which uses the solar collector to replace part of the heat load of the waste heat boiler, thereby improving the flue gas utilization rate of the waste heat boiler, increasing the power generation of the steam cycle subsystem, and further improving the work capacity of the system. Therefore, compared with traditional integration methods, the combined supply system provided by the present invention has significant thermodynamic advantages.
