Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments.

In the descriptions of the following embodiments, "a plurality of" means more than two, unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0083] In the prior art, the heat transfer performance of the indirect cooling tower is usually determined according to the experimental heat transfer coefficient and the corresponding reduction coefficient of the air-cooled tube bundle of the indirect cooling tower at the time of factory. However, since the indirect cooling tower is exposed to the air, its heat transfer performance is easily affected by dirt. There are many fan segments in the indirect cooling tower (8 - 12), and due to manufacturing and installation reasons, the heat transfer coefficients of each fan segment are not the same. Using the same unchanging thermal resistance experimental value will result in low accuracy in monitoring the heat transfer performance of the indirect cooling tower, and insufficient guidance for the optimal operation and cleaning frequency of the indirect cooling tower.

[0084] In view of the above problems, the intercooling tower performance monitoring method, device, electronic device and storage medium provided by the embodiments of the present application obtain the inlet and outlet air temperatures and the inlet and outlet water temperatures of each fan section in the intercooling tower to be measured; determine the heat dissipation of each fan section according to the inlet and outlet water temperatures and the circulating water flow rate; determine the logarithmic mean temperature difference of each fan section according to the inlet and outlet air temperatures and the inlet and outlet water temperatures; determine the heat transfer coefficient of each fan section according to the heat dissipation, logarithmic mean temperature difference and heat transfer area of each fan section; and determine the performance monitoring result of the intercooling tower to be measured according to the heat transfer coefficient of each fan section.

[0085] The following specific embodiments may be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0086] First, the structure of the intercooling tower performance monitoring system based on the present application will be described:

[0087] The intercooling tower performance monitoring method, device, electronic device and storage medium provided by the embodiments of the present application are applicable to detecting the heat transfer performance of the intercooling tower. As Figure 1 shown, it is a schematic structural diagram of the intercooling tower performance monitoring system based on the embodiments of the present application, mainly including an intercooling tower, a data acquisition device and an electronic device deployed with an intercooling tower performance monitoring device. Specifically, the inlet and outlet air temperatures and the inlet and outlet water temperatures of each fan section in the intercooling tower can be collected based on the data acquisition device, and the collected information is sent to the electronic device. Based on the intercooling tower performance monitoring device, the electronic device determines the performance monitoring result of the intercooling tower according to the received information.

[0088] The embodiments of the present application provide an intercooling tower performance monitoring method for detecting the heat transfer performance of the intercooling tower. The execution subject of the embodiments of the present application is an electronic device, such as a server, a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a tablet computer and other electronic devices that can be used to detect the heat transfer performance of the intercooling tower.

[0089] As Figure 2 shown, it is a schematic flow chart of the intercooling tower performance monitoring method provided by the embodiments of the present application, and the method includes:

[0090] Step 201, obtain the inlet and outlet air temperatures and the inlet and outlet water temperatures of each fan section in the intercooling tower to be measured.

[0091] Among them, multiple temperature sensors are provided for the finned tubes of each fan section of the indirect cooling tower to be measured, and the inlet and outlet air temperatures include the inlet air temperature and the outlet air temperature.

[0092] Specifically, in one embodiment, for any fan section, obtain the outlet air temperature measured by each temperature sensor in this fan section; calculate the average value of the outlet air temperatures measured by each temperature sensor to obtain the outlet air temperature of this fan section; determine the current ambient temperature as the inlet air temperature.

[0093] Specifically, m measuring points can be set on the finned tubes of each fan section, and one temperature sensor is set at each measuring point. Among them, in order to ensure the reliability of the data, m = 5 can be set, and then the actual outlet air temperature of this fan section can be determined according to the average value calculation result of the outlet air temperatures measured by each temperature sensor.

[0094] Correspondingly, water temperature sensors can be set at the water outlet and water inlet of the fan section to measure the circulating water inlet temperature and the circulating water outlet temperature of this fan section at the current moment based on the water temperature sensors.

[0095] Among them, since the inlet air temperature of each fan section of the indirect cooling tower is the same, the current ambient temperature at the location of the indirect cooling tower can be directly determined as the inlet air temperature of each fan section.

[0096] Step 202, determine the heat dissipation of each fan section according to the inlet and outlet water temperatures and the circulating water flow rate.

[0097] Specifically, the inlet and outlet water temperatures include the inlet water temperature and the outlet water temperature. The heat dissipation of this fan section in terms of water cooling performance can be determined according to the temperature difference between the outlet water temperature and the inlet water temperature of the fan section and the circulating water flow rate. Among them, the flow rate of the circulating water can be detected based on a preset flow sensor.

[0098] Specifically, in one embodiment, the heat dissipation Q of each fan section can be calculated based on the following formula n :

[0099] Q n = q n ρ w c pw (t w2n -t w1n )

[0100] Among them, Q n represents the heat dissipation of the nth fan section, q n represents the circulating water flow rate of the nth fan section, ρ w represents the circulating water density, c pw represents the circulating water specific heat capacity at constant pressure, t w2n represents the outlet water temperature of the nth fan section, t w1n represents the inlet water temperature of the nth fan section.

[0101] It should be noted that recycled water usually adopts available wastewater or groundwater, etc. The density of recycled water can be treated as a constant, and the constant pressure specific heat capacity of recycled water is usually taken as 4.18 kJ / (kg·°C).

[0102] Step 203: Determine the logarithmic mean temperature difference of each fan section according to the inlet and outlet air temperatures and the inlet and outlet water temperatures.

[0103] Among them, the logarithmic mean temperature difference is used to characterize the overall heat transfer performance of the fan section.

[0104] Specifically, in one embodiment, the logarithmic mean temperature difference Δt of each fan section can be calculated based on the following formula mn :

[0105]

[0106] Among them, Δt mn represents the logarithmic mean temperature difference of the nth fan section, t w2n represents the outlet water temperature of the nth fan section, t w1n represents the inlet water temperature of the nth fan section, t a1n represents the inlet air temperature of the nth fan section, t a2n represents the outlet air temperature of the nth fan section.

[0107] Step 204: Determine the heat transfer coefficient of each fan section according to the heat dissipation amount, logarithmic mean temperature difference and heat dissipation area of each fan section.

[0108] Among them, the heat dissipation area of the fan section is the area of the fan section. The larger the heat dissipation area of the fan section, the larger the corresponding heat dissipation amount and logarithmic mean temperature difference. Therefore, the specific heat transfer performance of the fan section needs to be analyzed in combination with its heat dissipation area.

[0109] Specifically, in one embodiment, the heat transfer coefficient k of each fan section can be calculated based on the following formula n :

[0110]

[0111] Among them, k n represents the heat transfer coefficient of the nth fan section, Q n represents the heat dissipation amount of the nth fan section, Δt mn represents the logarithmic mean temperature difference of the nth fan section, A n represents the heat dissipation area of the nth fan section.

[0112] Step 205: Determine the performance monitoring result of the intercooling tower to be measured according to the heat transfer coefficient of each fan section.

[0113] Specifically, the performance monitoring result of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower can be obtained by summarizing the heat transfer coefficients of each fan segment. Among them, the performance monitoring result can be output in the form of an indirect cooling tower monitoring report.

[0114] Based on the above embodiments, since the indirect cooling tower is exposed to the air, when the surface dirtiness degree is relatively high, the heat transfer performance of the indirect cooling tower will be affected. Therefore, in order to ensure the heat transfer performance of the indirect cooling tower, as an implementable manner, in one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0115] Step 301: Determine the average inlet and outlet air temperatures of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower according to the calculation results of the average inlet and outlet air temperatures of each fan segment.

[0116] Step 302: Determine the air density change information of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower during inlet and outlet according to the average inlet and outlet air temperatures of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower and the actually measured local atmospheric pressure.

[0117] Step 303: Determine the lift value of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower in the air according to the air density change information, the effective height of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower, and the acceleration due to gravity.

[0118] Step 304: Based on the equivalent relationship between the lift value and the resistance value of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower in the air, determine the resistance value of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower in the air according to the lift value of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower in the air.

[0119] Specifically, the average inlet and outlet air temperatures of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower include the average inlet air temperature and the average outlet air temperature. The inlet air temperature of each fan segment of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower is uniformly the current ambient temperature. Therefore, the average inlet air temperature t a1 of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower is the current ambient temperature. For the average outlet air temperature t a2 of the indirect cooling tower, it can be calculated based on the following formula:

[0120]

[0121] where n represents the number of fan segments of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower, and t a2n represents the outlet air temperature of the nth fan segment.

[0122] Specifically, the air density change information of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower during inlet and outlet is the air density difference between the inlet and outlet times of the indirect cooling tower. Specifically, the air density difference between the inlet and outlet times of the indirect cooling tower can be determined based on the following formula:

[0123] Δρ a = ρ a2 - ρ a1

[0124] ρ a2 = 1.293×(p atm / 101.325)×273.15 / (t a2 +273.15)

[0125] ρ a1 =1.293×(p atm / 101.325)×273.15 / (t a1 +273.15)

[0126] Among them, ρ a2 represents the air density at the outlet air moment, and ρ a1 represents the air density at the inlet air moment. p atm represents the measured local atmospheric pressure. 1.293 is the air density under normal temperature and pressure, 101.325 is the standard atmospheric pressure, and 273.15 is the conversion coefficient between the Kelvin scale and the Celsius scale.

[0127] Furthermore, the lift value of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower in the air = He·g·Δρ a , where He represents the effective height of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower, unit: meter (m). The effective height of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower is equal to the tower height minus half of the radiator height. g represents the acceleration due to gravity, unit: m·s-2. Δρ a represents the air density change information of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower during inlet and outlet air.

[0128] Specifically, based on the resistance-lift balance principle of the indirect cooling tower, the resistance value Δp of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower in the air can be determined based on the following formula H :

[0129] Δp H =He·g·Δρ a

[0130] Based on the above embodiments, in order to accurately judge the fouling degree of each fan section, as an implementable method, in one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0131] Step 401: Determine the characteristic air temperature of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower according to the average value of the inlet and outlet air temperatures of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower;

[0132] Step 402: Determine the characteristic air density of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower according to the characteristic air temperature of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower and the measured local atmospheric pressure;

[0133] Step 403: Determine the ventilation volume of each fan section according to the characteristic air density of the to-be-detected indirect cooling tower, the heat dissipation amount of each fan section, and the inlet and outlet air temperatures;

[0134] Step 404: Determine the windward wind speed of each fan section according to the ventilation volume and heat dissipation area of each fan section;

[0135] Step 405: For any sector, when the wind speed on the windward side of the sector reaches the preset standard, determine whether the sector is a sector to be cleaned according to the relationship between the heat transfer coefficient of the sector and the preset threshold.

[0136] Specifically, the characteristic air density t of the intercooling tower to be measured can be determined based on the following formula a :

[0137] t a =(t a2 +t a1 ) / 2

[0138] Furthermore, the characteristic air density ρ of the intercooling tower to be measured can be determined based on the following formula:

[0139] ρ = 1.293×(p atm / 101.325)×273.15 / (t a +273.15)

[0140] For the explanations of the terms of each element in this formula, refer to the above embodiments and will not be elaborated here.

[0141] Furthermore, the ventilation volume q of each sector can be determined based on the following formula airn :

[0142] q airn =Q n / ρc p (t a2n -t a1n )

[0143] Wherein, q airn represents the ventilation volume of the nth sector, Q n represents the heat dissipation of the nth sector, t a1n represents the inlet air temperature of the nth sector, t a2n represents the outlet air temperature of the nth sector, ρ represents the characteristic air density of the intercooling tower to be measured, and c p represents the specific heat capacity at constant pressure of air, which can be considered a constant within the working temperature range of the intercooling tower, taking 1.005 kJ / (kg·°C), and the total ventilation volume of the air cooling tower

[0144] Furthermore, the wind speed v on the windward side of each sector can be determined based on the following formula n :

[0145] v n =q airn / A fn

[0146] Wherein, A fn is the windward area of the sector, and numerically it is equal to the heat dissipation area divided by the fin ratio, that is, Afn = A n / Ω, where Ω is the fin ratio and takes the design value.

[0147] Exemplarily, when the face velocity v of the fan section n is close to the designed face velocity v n(d) , that is, it reaches the preset standard: 0.97 < [v n / v n(d) < 1.03, it is judged whether the ratio between the real-time heat dissipation coefficient k of each fan section n and the design value k n(d) reaches the preset threshold. For example, when k of a certain fan section n / k n(d) > 1.2, it is determined that this fan section is the fan section to be cleaned.
