Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of energy conservation and emission reduction, and in particular to a thermal power unit coupled with molten salt energy storage deep peak regulation system and method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The gas-steam combined cycle has become the fastest growing form of power generation in the world due to its advantages of high power generation efficiency, short construction period, and convenient operation. This also has important guiding significance for the current adjustment of my country's power structure. However, when the combined cycle unit participates in the peak load regulation of the power grid, the operating load fluctuates frequently with the fluctuation of power load and new energy power, resulting in a significant reduction in the efficiency of the combined cycle unit. For example, compared with the full load operation, the heat consumption increases by 8% when the unit load rate is 60% when the unit is running at low load, and increases by 20% when the unit load rate is 40%. Therefore, it is very important to integrate energy storage devices in the combined cycle system to ensure that the unit can still operate at a higher load when participating in power peak regulation, so as to improve the efficiency and flexibility of the overall system.

[0003] Therefore, molten salt energy storage technology has developed into the most mainstream high-temperature heat storage technology in the world with its advantages of low cost, high heat capacity and good safety. Using molten salt energy storage technology to solve the problem of insufficient power peak-shaving capacity of combined cycle units is a very promising technical application method. In particular, for ternary molten salts with a maximum operating temperature below 500°C, it is more suitable for thermal power coupled molten salt energy storage peak-shaving systems that achieve efficient utilization of flue gas waste heat. In related technologies, molten salt energy storage is coupled with peak-shaving in the field of flue gas waste heat utilization. High-temperature flue gas directly heats low-temperature molten salt into high-temperature molten salt. However, due to the large heat exchange temperature difference, serious irreversible losses are generated; and the use of high-temperature molten salt to produce low-parameter steam for heating also causes high-grade molten salt heat losses.

[0019] Determining whether the system participates in power peak regulation;

[0020] If the system participates in power peak regulation, determining whether it is necessary to reduce or increase the output power load;

[0053] It can be understood that when the system participates in power peak regulation and needs to reduce the output power load, valve No. 21 621 and valve No. 22 622 are opened and adjusted, and valve No. 23 623 is closed to reduce the amount of condensate delivered to the deaerator 402 through the condensate pump 401. The excess condensate from the condensate pump 401 is directly delivered to the condensate storage tank 403 for storage, thereby reducing the parameters of the superheated steam delivered from the waste heat boiler 102 to the steam turbine unit 20, reducing the working capacity of the steam turbine unit 20, and thereby reducing the power load output by the second generator 203 to meet the power peak regulation demand.

[0054] When the system participates in power peak regulation and needs to increase the output power load, open and adjust valve No. 21 621 and valve No. 23 623, close valve No. 22 622, and the condensate storage tank 403 replenishes the insufficient condensate of the system. When the system participates in power peak regulation and needs to continue to increase the output power load, it can also replenish the water supply required for producing steam when the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 releases heat.

[0055] Specific implementation method of the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30: The molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 includes an energy storage component, an electrically heated molten salt heater 312, a molten salt bypass pipe 313, an electrically heated steam superheater 314, a steam bypass pipe 315, a high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302, a high-temperature molten salt pump 306, a high-pressure steam superheater 307, a high-pressure steam generator 308, a low-pressure steam superheater 309, a low-pressure steam generator 310, and a first feed water pump 311; wherein the energy storage component includes a low-temperature molten salt storage tank 301, a low-temperature molten salt pump 305, a primary molten salt heater 303 and a secondary molten salt heater 304.

[0056] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the secondary molten salt heater 304 and the primary molten salt heater 303 are both arranged in the waste heat boiler 102, the primary molten salt heater 303 is located between the low-pressure superheater 104 and the low-pressure drum 103, and the secondary molten salt heater 304 is located between the high-pressure drum 105 and the low-pressure superheater 104. According to the principles of temperature matching and cascade utilization, the heat exchange equipment in the waste heat boiler 102 is reasonably arranged to achieve cascade efficient utilization of flue gas waste heat.

[0057] Loop 2: The molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 stores energy or releases heat.

[0058] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, when the system participates in power peak regulation and needs to reduce the output power load, in order to keep the steam turbine unit 20 running at a low load, a portion of the flue gas waste heat from the gas turbine 503 needs to be stored in the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30. Specifically, valve No. 11 611, valve No. 14 614 and valve No. 15 615 are opened and adjusted.

[0059] A low-temperature molten salt pump 305 and a No. 11 valve 611 are installed at the molten salt outlet of the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 301, the primary molten salt heater 303 is arranged between the low-pressure drum 103 and the low-pressure superheater 104 in the waste heat boiler 102, the molten salt outlet of the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 301 is connected to the molten salt inlet of the primary molten salt heater 303, the molten salt outlet of the primary molten salt heater 303 is connected to the molten salt inlet of the secondary molten salt heater 304, the molten salt outlet of the secondary molten salt heater 304 is connected to the molten salt inlet of the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 through the molten salt bypass pipe 313, a No. 14 valve 614 is installed on the molten salt bypass pipe 313, and a No. 15 valve 615 is installed at the molten salt inlet of the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302.

[0060] It is understandable that the low-temperature molten salt in the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 301, driven by the low-temperature molten salt pump 305, enters the primary molten salt heater 303 and the secondary molten salt heater 304 in turn to be heated in stages to obtain high-temperature molten salt, which is then sent to the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 for storage, that is, the high-temperature flue gas waste heat is stored, achieving high-efficiency step-by-step utilization of the high-temperature flue gas waste heat, greatly reducing the heat exchange temperature difference, and reducing irreversible losses. The use of the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 to store the high-temperature flue gas waste heat avoids the priority choice of reducing the operating load of the gas turbine unit 50, and largely ensures the high-efficiency operation of the cycle power generation mechanism.

[0061] When the system participates in power peak regulation and needs to continue to increase the output power load, the steam generated by the heat release of the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 is transported to the steam turbine unit 20 to further increase the operating load of the steam turbine unit 20, thereby continuing to increase the output power load of the system.

[0062] Specifically, the molten salt outlet of the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 is installed with a high-temperature molten salt pump 306 and a No. 16 valve 616, and is connected to the molten salt inlet of the high-pressure steam superheater 307, the molten salt outlet of the high-pressure steam superheater 307 is connected to the molten salt inlet of the high-pressure steam generator 308, the molten salt outlet of the high-pressure steam generator 308 is connected to the molten salt inlet of the low-pressure steam superheater 309, the molten salt outlet of the low-pressure steam superheater 309 is connected to the molten salt inlet of the low-pressure steam generator 310, the molten salt outlet of the low-pressure steam generator 310 is connected to the molten salt inlet of the secondary feed water heater 316, the molten salt outlet of the secondary feed water heater 316 is connected to the molten salt inlet of the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 301, and a No. 17 valve 617 is installed at the molten salt inlet of the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 301.

[0063] It can be understood that the high-temperature molten salt output from the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 is sequentially cooled by the high-pressure steam superheater 307, the high-pressure steam generator 308, the low-pressure steam superheater 309, the low-pressure steam generator 310 and the secondary feed water heater 316 to obtain low-temperature molten salt and store it in the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 301, that is, the heat stored in the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 is released, from the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 to the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 301, based on the principle of energy cascade utilization, the distribution positions of various types of heat exchangers utilizing the heat of high-temperature molten salt are reasonably designed, and steam with different parameters based on energy grade cascade matching is efficiently produced, and the heat stored in the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 is released, which not only realizes the cascade efficient utilization of high-temperature molten salt heat, greatly reduces the heat exchange temperature difference, further reduces the irreversible loss, and increases the output of high-quality steam, which greatly improves the working capacity of the steam turbine unit. The heat released by the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 is used together with the heat output from the feedwater heater 101 in loop three. After the steam is output, it acts on the steam turbine unit 20 to generate electricity, so as to further increase the operating load of the steam turbine unit 20, thereby continuing to increase the output electrical load of the system. The secondary feedwater heater 316 is set up to further utilize the molten salt heat in a step-by-step manner. When heat is released by producing steam, the heat released can be increased, thereby increasing the heat storage and release capacity of the molten salt energy storage mechanism.

[0064] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, loop three: when the system participates in power peak regulation and needs to continue to increase the output power load, the steam generated by the heat release of the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 is transported to the steam turbine unit 20 to further increase the operating load of the steam turbine unit 20, thereby continuing to increase the output power load of the system. Specifically, open and adjust valve No. 3 603, valve No. 4 604, valve No. 5 605, valve No. 7 607, valve No. 8 608, valve No. 10 610, valve No. 16 616, valve No. 17 617, valve No. 18 618 and valve No. 19 619, and close valve No. 11 611 and valve No. 15 615. After being heated by the feedwater heater 101, the feedwater enters the secondary feedwater heater 316 for secondary preheating and is divided into two feedwater routes. The secondary feedwater heater 316 is connected to the feedwater inlet of the high-pressure steam generator 308 and the low-pressure steam generator 310 respectively.

[0065] One of the branches: the first feed water pump 311 and the No. 5 valve 605 are installed at the feed water inlet of the high-pressure steam generator 308, the feed water entering the high-pressure steam generator 308 is first pressurized by the first feed water pump 311, the steam outlet of the high-pressure steam generator 308 is connected to the steam inlet of the high-pressure steam superheater 307, the high-pressure steam generated by the high-pressure steam generator 308 enters the high-pressure steam superheater 307 for further heating, the steam outlet of the high-pressure steam superheater 307 is connected to the steam inlet of the electric-heating steam superheater 314, the steam inlet of the electric-heating steam superheater 314 is installed with the No. 18 valve 618, and the steam outlet is installed with the No. 19 valve 619, the steam outlet of the electric-heating steam superheater 314 is connected to the steam inlet of the medium and high-pressure cylinder 201, and the steam enters the medium and high-pressure cylinder 201 and the low-pressure cylinder 202 in turn to do work. Another branch: The steam inlet of the low-pressure steam generator 310 is installed with a No. 4 valve 604, and the steam outlet of the low-pressure steam generator 310 is connected to the steam inlet of the low-pressure steam superheater 309. The low-pressure steam generated by the low-pressure steam generator 310 enters the low-pressure steam superheater 309 for further heating. The steam outlet of the low-pressure steam superheater 309 is installed with a No. 7 valve 607, and the steam outlet of the low-pressure steam superheater 309 is connected to the steam inlet of the low-pressure cylinder 202. The steam of the low-pressure steam superheater 309 directly enters the low-pressure cylinder 202 of the steam turbine to perform work. The medium and high-pressure cylinders 201 and the low-pressure cylinder 202 perform work at the same time to drive the second generator 203 to generate electricity.

[0066] It is understandable that the feedwater heater 101 in loop three is divided into two feedwater routes after secondary preheating by the secondary feedwater heater 316, which supplements the feedwater flow required for producing steam when the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 releases heat, thereby increasing the output of high-quality steam. At the same time, when the system participates in power peak regulation and needs to continue to increase the output power load, loop three and loop one work together on the steam turbine unit 20, and the steam output of the two loops acts on the steam turbine unit 20, which greatly improves the ability of the steam turbine unit 20 to work and generate electricity. The electrically heated steam superheater 314 makes up for the shortcomings of the low thermal energy grade or insufficient thermal energy of the high-temperature molten salt output by the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302, and better ensures that the steam parameters output by the high-pressure steam superheater 307 meet the needs of the steam turbine unit 20.

[0067] It should be noted that in loop two and loop three, the electrically heated molten salt heater 312 is turned off and the electrically heated steam superheater 314 is turned on. At this time, the temperature of the low-temperature molten salt in the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 301 can be 150-200°C, and the temperature of the molten salt stored in the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 can be 450-500°C.

[0068] like Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown, in another embodiment, the main difference is: when the combined cycle power generation system participates in power peak regulation and needs to continue to reduce the output power load, the gas turbine unit 50 and the steam turbine unit 20 both maintain low load operation, a portion of the flue gas waste heat from the gas turbine turbine 503 is stored in the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30, and valve No. 11 611, valve No. 15 615, valve No. 12 612 and valve No. 13 613 are opened and adjusted.

[0069] Specifically, the molten salt outlet of the secondary molten salt heater 304 is connected to the molten salt inlet of the electrically heated molten salt heater 312, and the molten salt outlet of the electrically heated molten salt heater 312 is connected to the molten salt inlet of the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302. The molten salt inlet of the electrically heated molten salt heater 312 is installed with valve No. 12, and its molten salt outlet is installed with valve No. 13.

[0070] It can be understood that the high-temperature flue gas from the gas turbine 503 is first used to heat the feed water in the waste heat utilization device 10 to generate steam, and the steam is used to drive the steam turbine unit 20 to generate power, and then used to heat the molten salt for heat storage. At this time, the high-temperature flue gas has insufficient waste heat, so that the low-temperature molten salt cannot be heated to the set temperature by the high-temperature flue gas. The low-temperature molten salt in the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 301 enters the primary molten salt heater 303 and the secondary molten salt heater 304 in turn to be heated in stages, and then enters the electric heating molten salt heater 312 to use electric energy to further heat the molten salt to the set temperature, and then returns to the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 for storage. Therefore, the molten salt is supplemented with electric energy by the electrically heated molten salt heater 312, which not only makes up for the lack of waste heat of the high-temperature flue gas and ensures the molten salt temperature required for the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 to store heat, but also consumes a part of the output electric load through the electrically heated molten salt heater 312 to meet the load reduction demand of power peak regulation, so that the operating load of the gas turbine unit 50 participating in power peak regulation is relatively reduced, further effectively ensuring the high-efficiency operation of the circulating power generation mechanism.

[0071] In this embodiment, the circuit from the high temperature molten salt storage tank 302 to the low temperature molten salt storage tank 301 refers to the corresponding technical solution in the circuit 2 of the previous embodiment, and combined with the circuit 3 in the previous embodiment, it should be noted that the valve No. 18 618 and the valve No. 19 619 in the circuit 3 are closed, and the valve No. 20 620 is opened. Specifically, the steam bypass pipe 315 is arranged between the steam inlet and the steam outlet of the electric heating steam superheater 314, and the valve No. 20 620 is installed on the steam bypass pipe 315.

[0072] That is, the electrically heated molten salt heater 312 is turned on and the electrically heated steam superheater 314 is turned off. At this time, the temperature of the molten salt stored in the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 can be 600° C. or above.

[0073] See also Figure 4 In yet another embodiment, the main difference is that the secondary molten salt heater 304 is located between the high-pressure superheater 106 and the high-pressure steam drum 105, which has a similar technical effect to the previous embodiment.

[0074] Please continue reading Figure 1-Figure 4 In an embodiment of the present invention, there is also provided a method for coupling a thermal power unit with a molten salt energy storage deep peak regulation system as claimed in claim 1, comprising the following steps:

[0075] Determine whether the system participates in power peak regulation.

[0076] If the system does not participate in power peak regulation, the gas turbine unit 50 and the steam turbine unit 20 both maintain high load operation to ensure the high efficiency operation of the circulating power generation mechanism. The high-temperature flue gas from the gas turbine 503 is all used to heat the feed water to produce steam, and then enters the steam turbine unit 20 to generate power. At this time, open and adjust valve No. 1 601, valve No. 2 602, valve No. 6 606, valve No. 8 608, valve No. 9 609, valve No. 10 610 and valve No. 21 621. The feed water from the deaerator 402 is heated by the feed water heater 101 and then divided into two feed water routes, which enter the low-pressure drum 103 and the high-pressure drum 105 respectively. The feed water entering the high-pressure drum 105 is first pressurized by the second feed water pump 107, and the high-pressure steam generated by the high-pressure drum 105 enters the high-pressure superheater 106 for further heating, and then enters the medium-pressure cylinder 201 and the low-pressure cylinder 202 in sequence to perform work; the low-pressure steam generated by the low-pressure drum 103 enters the low-pressure superheater 104 for further heating, and then directly enters the low-pressure cylinder 202 to perform work, and the medium-pressure cylinder 201 and the low-pressure cylinder 202 perform work at the same time to drive the second generator 203 to generate electricity, and the exhaust steam generated after the steam turbine unit 20 performs work enters the condenser 406 to form condensate, and then returns to the deaerator 402 through the condensate pump 401.

[0077] If the system participates in power peak regulation, determine whether it is necessary to reduce or increase the output power load.

[0078] If it is necessary to reduce the output power load, the gas turbine unit 50 needs to maintain high load operation, and the steam turbine unit 20 maintains low load operation. Part of the high-temperature flue gas from the gas turbine turbine 503 is used to heat the waste heat utilization device 10 to generate steam. The steam of the waste heat utilization device 10 drives the steam turbine unit 20 to work and generate electricity, and the other part of the flue gas waste heat is used to heat the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 and store heat. It can be understood that it is preferred to reduce the operating load of the steam turbine unit 20 and still maintain the high-load operation of the gas turbine unit 50. At this time, the heat storage of the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 is used to store the excess high-temperature flue gas waste heat, thereby ensuring the high-efficiency operation of the cycle power generation mechanism and avoiding the direct emission loss of flue gas waste heat.

[0079] Specifically, open and adjust valve No. 21 621 and valve No. 22 622, and close valve No. 23 623 to reduce the amount of condensate delivered to the deaerator 402 through the condensate pump 401. The excess condensate from the condensate pump 401 is directly delivered to the condensate storage tank 403 for storage, which in turn reduces the feed water flow from the deaerator 402 to the waste heat boiler 102, thereby reducing the superheated steam flow from the waste heat boiler 102 to the steam turbine unit 20, reducing the working capacity of the steam turbine unit 20, and thereby reducing the electrical load output by the second generator 203 to meet the power peak regulation demand.

[0080] Open and adjust valve No. 11 611, valve No. 14 614 and valve No. 15 615. Driven by the low-temperature molten salt pump 305, the low-temperature molten salt in the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 301 enters the primary molten salt heater 303 and the secondary molten salt heater 304 in turn to be heated into high-temperature molten salt. The high-temperature molten salt returns to the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 through the molten salt bypass pipe 313 for storage, thereby storing the high-temperature flue gas waste heat through the molten salt energy storage system. The high-temperature flue gas waste heat is efficiently utilized in stages, greatly reducing the heat exchange temperature difference and reducing irreversible losses. The use of the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 to store the high-temperature flue gas waste heat avoids the priority choice of reducing the operating load of the gas turbine unit 50, and largely ensures the high-efficiency operation of the cycle power generation mechanism.

[0081] If the system participates in power peak regulation and needs to continue to reduce the output power load, the steam turbine unit 20 and the gas turbine unit 50 need to maintain low-load operation. Since the power load output by the gas turbine unit 50 is also reduced, the flue gas waste heat is insufficient, and the low-temperature molten salt in the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 needs to be further heated to a preset temperature by the electrically heated molten salt heater 312; it can be understood that the operation load of the gas turbine unit 50 and the steam turbine unit 20 is reduced at the same time. At this time, the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 is used to store the excess high-temperature flue gas waste heat, so that the operation load of the thermal power unit is further reduced, and the electrically heated molten salt heater 312 consumes part of the power load for heating the molten salt, which is stored through the molten salt energy storage system, thereby avoiding the operation load of the gas turbine unit 50 being too low, thereby ensuring the operation efficiency of the combined cycle power generation system. At this time, open and adjust valve No. 12 612 and valve No. 13 613, and close valve No. 14 614.

[0082] Specifically, the high-temperature flue gas from the gas turbine 503 is first used to heat the feed water to generate steam to drive the steam turbine unit 20 to generate power. The feed water from the deaerator 402 is heated by the feed water heater 101 and then divided into two feed water paths, which enter the low-pressure steam drum 103 and the high-pressure steam drum 105 respectively, and finally act on the medium- and high-pressure cylinders 201 and the low-pressure cylinder 202, so that the medium- and high-pressure cylinders 201 and the low-pressure cylinder 202 work at the same time to drive the second generator 203 to generate power. The specific cycle loop will not be repeated here, and please refer to the above system when it does not participate in power peak regulation.

[0083] The high-temperature flue gas from the gas turbine 503 is then used to heat the molten salt for heat storage. When the gas turbine unit 50 is running at a low load, the flue gas flow and temperature will decrease. Therefore, the high-temperature flue gas has insufficient waste heat, so that the molten salt cannot be heated to the set temperature by the high-temperature flue gas. The low-temperature molten salt in the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 301 enters the primary molten salt heater 303 and the secondary molten salt heater 304 in turn to be heated in stages, and then enters the electric heating molten salt heater 312 to use electric energy to further heat the molten salt to the set temperature, and then returns to the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 for storage.

[0084] If the output electrical load needs to be increased, both the gas turbine unit 50 and the steam turbine unit 20 must maintain high load operation to ensure high-efficiency operation of the circulating power generation mechanism. The high-temperature flue gas waste heat from the gas turbine turbine 503 is all used to heat the feed water in the waste heat utilization device 10 to generate steam, and then the steam from the waste heat utilization device 10 drives the steam turbine unit 20 to work and generate electricity.

[0085] Specifically, valve No. 1 601, valve No. 2 602, valve No. 606, valve No. 8 608, valve No. 9 609, valve No. 10 610 and valve No. 21 621 are opened and adjusted, and the feed water from the deaerator 402 is heated by the feed water heater 101 and then divided into two feed water routes, which enter the low-pressure drum 103 and the high-pressure drum 105 respectively, and the feed water entering the high-pressure drum 105 is first pressurized by the second feed water pump 107, and the high-pressure steam generated by the high-pressure drum 105 enters the high-pressure drum 103 and the high-pressure drum 105. The superheater 106 is further heated, and then enters the medium and high pressure cylinder 201 and the low pressure cylinder 202 in turn to perform work; the low pressure steam generated by the low pressure drum 103 enters the low pressure superheater 104 for further heating, and then directly enters the low pressure cylinder 202 to perform work, and the medium and high pressure cylinder 201 and the low pressure cylinder 202 perform work at the same time to drive the second generator 203 to generate electricity, and the exhaust steam generated after the turbine unit 20 performs work enters the condenser 406 to form condensate, and then returns to the deaerator 402 through the condensate pump 401.

[0086] If the output electrical load is to be further increased, not only the gas turbine unit 50 and the steam turbine unit 20 need to maintain high load operation, but also the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 needs to release heat to heat the feed water added by the feed water heater 101 into steam. The generated steam is used to drive the steam turbine unit 20 to work and generate electricity, so as to further increase the operating load of the steam turbine unit 20 and further increase the output electrical load. After heating, the feed water heater 101 is divided into two feed waters, which continue to enter the low-pressure drum 103 and the high-pressure drum 105 respectively, and finally work and generate electricity in the steam turbine unit 20. The specific steps will not be repeated.

[0087] In addition, the following steps are required: open and adjust valve No. 3 603, valve No. 4 604, valve No. 5 605, valve No. 7 607, valve No. 8 608, valve No. 10 610, valve No. 16 616, valve No. 17 617, valve No. 18 618 and valve No. 19 619, and close valve No. 11 611, valve No. 15 615 and valve No. 20.

[0088] After the feed water from the deaerator 402 is heated by the feed water heater 101, the steam is further heated to a preset temperature by the secondary feed water heater 316. The feed water from the secondary feed water heater 316 enters the low-pressure steam generator 310 and the high-pressure steam generator 308 respectively. Before entering the high-pressure steam generator 308, the feed water is pressurized by the first feed water pump 311. The high-pressure steam generated by the high-pressure steam generator 308 enters the high-pressure steam superheater 307 for further heating. Then, it is determined whether the high-pressure steam parameter output by the high-pressure steam superheater 307 reaches the preset value. When the high-pressure steam parameter is lower than the preset value, the The high-pressure steam then enters the electric heating steam superheater 314 to continue heating to the preset temperature, and then enters the medium and high pressure cylinder 201 and the low pressure cylinder 202 in turn to perform work. When the high-pressure steam parameter reaches the preset value, the high-pressure steam enters the medium and high pressure cylinder 201 and the low pressure cylinder 202 in turn to perform work; the low-pressure steam generated by the low-pressure steam generator 310 enters the low-pressure steam superheater 309 for further heating, and then directly enters the low pressure cylinder 202 to perform work. The medium and high pressure cylinder 201 and the low pressure cylinder 202 perform work at the same time to drive the second generator 203 to generate electricity. The exhaust steam generated by the steam turbine unit 20 after performing work enters the condenser 406 to form condensed water. Open and adjust valve No. 21 621 and valve No. 23 623, close valve No. 22 622, and use the condensed water storage tank 403 to supplement the feed water flow required for producing steam when the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 releases heat. The secondary feed water heater 316 is connected to the high-pressure steam generator 308 and the low-pressure steam generator 310 to supplement the feed water flow required to produce steam when the molten salt energy storage mechanism 30 releases heat, thereby increasing the output of high-quality steam.

[0089] In addition, the high-temperature molten salt output from the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 is sequentially cooled through the high-pressure steam superheater 307, the high-pressure steam generator 308, the low-pressure steam superheater 309, the low-pressure steam generator 310 and the secondary feed water heater 316 to obtain low-temperature molten salt and store it in the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 301.

[0090] It can be understood that from the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 to the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 301, based on the principle of energy cascade utilization, the distribution positions of various heat exchangers utilizing high-temperature molten salt heat are reasonably designed, and steam with different parameters based on energy grade cascade matching is efficiently produced, and the heat stored in the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 is released, which not only realizes the cascade efficient utilization of high-temperature molten salt heat, greatly reduces the heat exchange temperature difference, reduces irreversible losses, and increases the output of high-quality steam, greatly improving the working capacity of the steam turbine. The heat released by the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 302 is used together with the heat output from the feedwater heater 101 to the low-pressure steam generator 310 and the high-pressure steam generator 308. After the steam is output, it acts on the steam turbine unit 20 to generate electricity, so as to further increase the operating load of the steam turbine unit 20, thereby increasing the output electrical load.
