Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of natural gas liquefaction processes. Specifically, it relates to an optimization method for mixed refrigerant ratio parameters, an optimization device, a computer-readable storage medium, a processor, and an optimization system. Background Art

[0002] In the process flow of producing LNG by mixed refrigerant refrigeration liquefaction, the raw gas pressure, the temperature of the raw gas after precooling, the subcooling temperature, the mixed refrigerant circulation pressure, and the content of each component of the mixed refrigerant all have important effects on the separation efficiency of the process. When the key parameters in the process change, only by adjusting the circulation amount of the mixed refrigerant, the heat and cold loads in the LNG process cannot reach a better matching degree. As the medium and carrier of cold energy in the refrigeration liquefaction process, the composition ratio of the mixed refrigerant directly affects the overall energy consumption of the process. When the cold quantity provided by the mixed refrigerant is less than the cold quantity required by the LNG process, the product yield will decrease. When the cold quantity provided by the mixed refrigerant is greater than the cold quantity required by the LNG process, the cold quantity carried by the refrigerant is surplus, and the energy consumption of the device increases. Therefore, the composition ratio of the mixed refrigerant should be adjusted according to the composition, pressure of the main process raw gas, and the different process flows. An appropriate mixed refrigerant ratio can not only significantly reduce the energy consumption of the device, improve the product yield, but also greatly reduce the production cost and enhance the competitiveness of the enterprise.

[0003] The disadvantages of the existing mixed refrigerant ratio optimization methods are as follows:

[0004] 1. When the gas quality conditions or composition conditions (proportion of each component) of the raw gas change in the existing technology, the optimized result of the refrigerant ratio cannot be directly given. The existing technology needs to build a simulated process flow in HYSYS according to the new gas quality conditions or composition conditions to calculate and obtain the optimized result of the mixed refrigerant ratio. The existing technology needs to reset the refrigeration temperature of the expected mixed working medium, the high and low end pressures of the compressor, and all available working media for traversal calculation to obtain the mixed refrigerant ratio result.

[0005] 2. When optimizing in the existing technology, it is necessary to manually adjust the parameters in the LNG liquefaction process model established by process simulation software such as HYSYS multiple times and record the simulation results each time to optimize the mixed refrigerant ratio, resulting in low efficiency of the ratio optimization calculation.

[0006] 3. In the existing technology, a recursive algorithm is used to traverse all working media to obtain all feasible mixed refrigerants composed of different working media, and based on this, a genetic algorithm is used to optimize the refrigerant ratio calculation. Traversing all possible working medium compositions will increase the calculation amount.

[0007] The above information disclosed in the background section is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of the technology described herein. Therefore, the background section may contain certain information that does not constitute the prior art known in the country to those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0027] It should be understood that when an element (such as a layer, film, region, or substrate) is described as being "on" another element, the element can be directly on the other element, or there may also be an intermediate element. Moreover, in the specification and claims, when an element is described as "connected" to another element, the element can be "directly connected" to the other element, or "connected" to the other element through a third element.

[0028] As described in the background art, in the prior art, when determining the optimal mixing refrigerant ratio parameters, when the natural gas parameter conditions change, it is necessary to continuously manually modify the parameters of the natural gas liquefaction process model, resulting in low optimization efficiency. To solve the above problems, in a typical implementation manner of the present application, an optimization method, an optimization device, a computer-readable storage medium, a processor, and an optimization system for the mixing refrigerant ratio parameters are provided.

[0029] According to an embodiment of the present application, an optimization method for the mixing refrigerant ratio parameters is provided.

[0030] Figure 1It is a flowchart of an optimization method for the mixing refrigerant ratio parameters according to an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 1 shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0031] Step S101, under actual working conditions, obtain the parameter values of the above-mentioned liquefied natural gas to be liquefied, and the above-mentioned parameter values are within the first value range;

[0032] Step S102, when both the above-mentioned parameter values and the second value range are constraint conditions of the specific power consumption estimation function, use a non-linear optimization algorithm to solve the minimum output value of the above-mentioned specific power consumption estimation function, and obtain the minimum value of the compressor specific power consumption. The above-mentioned second value range is the preset value range of the mixing refrigerant ratio parameter values. The above-mentioned specific power consumption estimation function is obtained by using a fitting algorithm to fit multiple groups of data to be fitted. Each group of the above-mentioned data to be fitted includes: a first parameter to be fitted, a second parameter to be fitted, and the corresponding above-mentioned compressor specific power consumption. The above-mentioned first parameter to be fitted is within the above-mentioned first value range, and the above-mentioned second parameter to be fitted is within the above-mentioned second value range;

[0033] Step S103, determine the optimal ratio parameter value according to the minimum value of the above-mentioned compressor specific power consumption.

[0034] In the above method for optimizing the mixing refrigerant ratio parameters, first, under actual working conditions, the parameter values of the natural gas to be liquefied are obtained, and the parameter values are within the first value range; then, when both the parameter values and the second value range are constraints of the specific power consumption estimation function, a non-linear optimization algorithm is used to solve the minimum output value of the specific power consumption estimation function to obtain the minimum value of the compressor specific power consumption. The second value range is the preset value range of the mixing refrigerant ratio parameters, and the specific power consumption estimation function is obtained by fitting multiple groups of data to be fitted using a fitting algorithm. Each group of the data to be fitted includes: a first parameter to be fitted, a second parameter to be fitted, and the corresponding compressor specific power consumption. The first parameter to be fitted is within the first value range, and the second parameter to be fitted is within the second value range; finally, the optimal ratio parameter value is determined according to the minimum value of the compressor specific power consumption. The specific power consumption estimation function of this method is a non-linear mapping relationship between the mixing refrigerant ratio parameter value, the parameter value of the natural gas to be liquefied, and the compressor specific power consumption obtained by using a fitting algorithm. That is, when the value of the parameter of the natural gas to be liquefied changes in the actual working condition, there is no need to establish a new model. By using the new parameter value and the preset value range of the mixing refrigerant ratio parameter as constraints and using a non-linear optimization algorithm to solve the specific power consumption estimation function, the minimum value of the corresponding compressor specific power consumption can be obtained. This method solves the problem in the prior art that when determining the optimal mixing refrigerant ratio parameters, when the natural gas parameter conditions change, it is necessary to continuously manually modify the parameters of the natural gas liquefaction process model, resulting in low optimization efficiency.

[0035] It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions. And although the logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in a different order than here.

[0036] In an optional embodiment of the present application, before using a non-linear optimization algorithm to solve the minimum output value of the specific power consumption estimation function to obtain the minimum value of the compressor specific power consumption, the method further includes: within the first value range, sampling is performed using the Latin hypercube sampling method to obtain multiple first parameters to be fitted, and within the second value range, sampling is performed using the Latin hypercube sampling method to obtain the second parameters to be fitted corresponding to each of the first parameters to be fitted. In this embodiment, the mixing refrigerant ratio parameters include the proportion X of each refrigerant in the mixing refrigerant i , the parameter values of the natural gas to be liquefied include the temperature T, pressure P of the natural gas quality condition to be liquefied, and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ) of each gas in the natural gas to be liquefied, and the second value range includes the proportion X of each refrigerant iThe upper and lower limits. The first value range includes the temperature T, pressure P of the liquefied natural gas quality conditions set according to the actual situation, and the proportions (Z1,..., Z n ) of each gas in the liquefied natural gas, and the upper and lower limits of the possible change ranges. The proportion X i of each refrigerant can be represented by the inequality x i,min ≤X i ≤x i,m , where x i,min is the lower limit of the proportion X i of each refrigerant, and x i,max is the upper limit of the proportion X i of each refrigerant. The value range of the temperature T can be represented by the inequality t i,min ≤T i ≤t i,max , where t i,min is the lower limit of the temperature T, and t i,max is the upper limit of the temperature T. The value range of the pressure P can be represented by the inequality p i,min ≤P i ≤p i,max , where p i,min is the lower limit of the pressure P, and p i,max is the upper limit of the pressure P. The value range of the proportion Z i of each gas can be represented by the inequality z i,min ≤Z i ≤z i,max , where z i,min is the lower limit of the proportion Z i of each gas, and z i,max is the upper limit of the proportion Z i of each gas. Set the proportion X i of each refrigerant, and the temperature T, pressure P of the liquefied natural gas quality conditions, and the proportions (Z1,..., Z n ) of each gas in the liquefied natural gas all follow a uniform distribution. As Figure 2 shown, N stratified samplings are performed using the Latin hypercube sampling method within the set first value range and second value range to obtain an N*M parameter matrix. The sum of the proportions of all refrigerants is 1, and the sum of the proportions of all gases in the liquefied natural gas is 1. The parameter matrix includes multiple parameter combinations {X1,..., X i , T, P, Z1,..., Z n}, and each parameter combination {X1,..., X i , T, P, Z1,..., Z n} contains the above first parameter to be fitted {X1,..., X i} and the corresponding second parameter to be fitted {T, P, Z1,..., Z n}(There are a total of M parameters. Among them, sampling is performed within the first value range, that is, only considering the possible values of the temperature T, pressure P of the liquefied natural gas quality conditions and the proportions (Z1,..., Z n ) in the actual situation. Sampling is performed within the second value range, that is, only considering the possible values of the proportions X i ) of each refrigerant in the mixed refrigerant in the actual situation, which improves the calculation speed in the optimization process and further improves the optimization efficiency of the mixed refrigerant ratio parameter values.

[0037] In an optional embodiment of the present application, before using the non-linear optimization algorithm to solve the minimum output value of the above specific power consumption estimation function and obtaining the minimum value of the compressor specific power consumption, the above method further includes: inputting each of the above first parameters to be fitted and the corresponding second parameters to be fitted into the natural gas liquefaction process model to obtain multiple compressor specific power consumptions. The natural gas liquefaction process model is a PID model established using a process simulation software according to the natural gas liquefaction process. The PID model includes multiple devices for the natural gas liquefaction process. In this embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, using Python software, the N parameter combinations {X1,..., X i , T, P, Z1,..., Z n} obtained by the Latin hypercube sampling method are respectively substituted into the natural gas liquefaction process model, that is, the LNG liquefaction process model for calculation, to obtain the compressor power consumption and the liquefied natural gas production corresponding to each parameter combination, and calculate the ratio of the compressor power consumption to the liquefied natural gas production to obtain the corresponding compressor specific power consumption y, and then obtain the result vector {y1,..., y n}, and then obtain each group of data to be fitted. Each group of data to be fitted includes a parameter combination and the corresponding compressor specific power consumption.

[0038] In an optional embodiment of the present application, before using the non-linear optimization algorithm to solve the minimum output value of the above specific power consumption estimation function and obtaining the minimum value of the compressor specific power consumption, the above method further includes: using the above fitting algorithm to fit each group of the above data to be fitted to obtain the above specific power consumption estimation function. In this embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, in Python software, using the fitting algorithm, that is, the multivariate adaptive regression spline method, to fit the result vector {y1,..., y n} and the parameter matrix N*M to obtain the non-linear mapping relationship between the compressor specific power consumption y and the proportions X i of each refrigerant, the temperature T, pressure P of the liquefied natural gas quality conditions and the proportions (Z1,..., Z n ) in the liquefied natural gas to be liquefied. Among the parameter combinations {X1,..., X i , T, P, Z1,..., Z n} In the case of changes, the parameter combination {X1, …, X i , T, P, Z1, …, Z n} is input into the specific power consumption estimation function, and the corresponding compressor specific power consumption y can be obtained, without the need to manually adjust the parameters of the natural gas liquefaction process model again according to the parameter combination {X1, …, X i , T, P, Z1, …, Z n}, calculate the ratio of the compressor power consumption to the liquefied natural gas production to obtain the compressor specific power consumption. Compared with the prior art's optimization method for the mixed refrigerant ratio parameters, in this application, since a specific power consumption estimation function is constructed, the calculation amount in the optimization process is reduced, and the optimization efficiency is improved.

[0039] In an optional embodiment of this application, when using a non-linear optimization algorithm to solve the minimum output value of the specific power consumption estimation function and obtain the minimum value of the compressor specific power consumption, the above method further includes: according to the above natural gas liquefaction process, establish the above PID model on the above process simulation software; according to the above actual working conditions, configure the parameters of the above equipment in the above PID model to obtain the above natural gas liquefaction process model. In this embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, according to the natural gas liquefaction process, that is, the LNG liquefaction process, use the Aspen Plus process simulation software to establish a PID model including all the equipment used in the LNG liquefaction process, and configure the parameters of each equipment according to the actual working conditions to obtain the natural gas liquefaction process model, that is, the LNG liquefaction process model, and simulate the entire LNG liquefaction process to ensure that the obtained compressor specific power consumption conforms to the actual situation, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the determined optimization result of the mixed refrigerant ratio.

[0040] In an optional embodiment of this application, determining the optimal ratio parameter value according to the minimum value of the compressor specific power consumption includes: taking the minimum value of the above compressor specific power consumption as the output value of the above specific power consumption estimation function, and using the above non-linear optimization algorithm to inversely solve the input value of the above specific power consumption estimation function to obtain the above optimal ratio parameter value. In this embodiment, after solving the minimum value of the compressor specific power consumption y, inversely solve to obtain the parameter combination {X1, …, X i , T, P, Z1, …, Z n} at this time, and then obtain the proportion X i of each refrigerant at this time. The proportion X i of each refrigerant corresponding at this time is the optimal ratio result. The temperature T, pressure P of the natural gas quality conditions to be liquefied and the proportion (Z1, …, Z n ) of each gas in the natural gas to be liquefied should be the temperature T, pressure P of the natural gas quality conditions to be liquefied and the proportion (Z1, …, Z n ) under the actual working conditions.

[0041] In an alternative embodiment of the present application, the specific power consumption estimation function established by the fitting algorithm, namely the multivariate adaptive regression spline method, is used as the objective function to be optimized, and its constraint conditions include: the sum of the proportions of all refrigerants X i is 1, and the value range of the proportion of each refrigerant X i is x i,min ≤ X i ≤ x i,max , the value range of the temperature T of the natural gas to be liquefied is t i,min ≤ T i ≤ t i,max , the value range of the pressure P is p i,min ≤ P i ≤ p i,max , the value range of the proportion Z i of each gas in the natural gas to be liquefied is z i,min ≤ Z i ≤ z i,max . After obtaining the objective function and the constraint conditions, the minimum value of the obtained objective function y is solved under the constraint conditions by using a non-linear optimization algorithm. At this time, the proportion X i of each refrigerant is the optimized mixing ratio result. It should be noted that when solving, the temperature T, pressure P of the natural gas to be liquefied and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ) of each gas in the natural gas to be liquefied should be the temperature T, pressure P of the natural gas to be liquefied and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ) under the actual working conditions, and compared with the existing optimization method for the mixing ratio parameters of the mixed refrigerant, when the temperature T, pressure P of the natural gas to be liquefied and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ) change, it is necessary to manually adjust the parameters of the natural gas liquefaction process model according to the parameter combination {X1,..., X i , T, P, Z1,..., Z n}, calculate the ratio of the compressor power consumption to the liquefied natural gas production to obtain the compressor specific power consumption. In the present application, when the temperature T, pressure P of the natural gas to be liquefied and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ) change, there is no need to rebuild the LNG liquefaction process model or reconstruct the mathematical function. The temperature T, pressure P of the natural gas to be liquefied and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ) are directly modified, and the minimum value of the obtained objective function y is solved under the new constraint conditions by using a non-linear optimization algorithm. After reverse solution, the new optimized mixing ratio result can be obtained, which improves the calculation efficiency of the mixed refrigerant mixing ratio optimization process.

[0042] The embodiment of the present application further provides an optimization device for the mixing refrigerant ratio parameters. It should be noted that the optimization device for the mixing refrigerant ratio parameters in the embodiment of the present application can be used to execute the optimization method for the mixing refrigerant ratio parameters provided in the embodiment of the present application. The following introduces the optimization device for the mixing refrigerant ratio parameters provided in the embodiment of the present application.

[0043] Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of the optimization device for the mixing refrigerant ratio parameters according to the embodiment of the present application. As Figure 3 shown, the device includes:

[0044] An acquisition unit 10, which acquires the parameter values of the above-mentioned liquefied natural gas to be liquefied under actual working conditions, and the above-mentioned parameter values are within the first value range;

[0045] A calculation unit 20, when both the above-mentioned parameter values and the second value range are constraint conditions of the specific power consumption estimation function, uses a non-linear optimization algorithm to solve the minimum output value of the above-mentioned specific power consumption estimation function, and obtains the minimum value of the compressor specific power consumption. The above-mentioned second value range is the preset value range of the mixing refrigerant ratio parameter values, and the above-mentioned specific power consumption estimation function is obtained by fitting multiple groups of data to be fitted using a fitting algorithm. Each group of the above-mentioned data to be fitted includes: a first parameter to be fitted, a second parameter to be fitted, and the corresponding above-mentioned compressor specific power consumption. The above-mentioned first parameter to be fitted is within the above-mentioned first value range, and the above-mentioned second parameter to be fitted is within the above-mentioned second value range;

[0046] A determination unit 30, which determines the optimal ratio parameter value according to the minimum value of the above-mentioned compressor specific power consumption.

[0047] In the above-mentioned optimization device for the mixing refrigerant ratio parameters, an acquisition unit acquires the parameter values of the natural gas to be liquefied under actual working conditions, and the parameter values are within a first value range; a calculation unit, when both the parameter values and a second value range are constraint conditions of a specific power consumption estimation function, uses a non-linear optimization algorithm to solve the minimum output value of the specific power consumption estimation function to obtain the minimum value of the compressor specific power consumption. The second value range is a preset value range of the mixing refrigerant ratio parameters, and the specific power consumption estimation function is obtained by fitting multiple groups of data to be fitted using a fitting algorithm. Each group of the data to be fitted includes: a first parameter to be fitted, a second parameter to be fitted, and the corresponding compressor specific power consumption. The first parameter to be fitted is within the first value range, and the second parameter to be fitted is within the second value range; a determination unit determines the optimal ratio parameter value according to the minimum value of the compressor specific power consumption. The specific power consumption estimation function of this device is a non-linear mapping relationship between the mixing refrigerant ratio parameter value obtained by using a fitting algorithm, the parameter value of the natural gas to be liquefied, and the compressor specific power consumption. That is, when the value of the parameter of the natural gas to be liquefied changes in the actual working condition, there is no need to establish a new model. By using the new parameter value and the preset value range of the mixing refrigerant ratio parameter as constraint conditions and using a non-linear optimization algorithm to solve the specific power consumption estimation function, the minimum value of the corresponding compressor specific power consumption can be obtained. This device solves the problem in the prior art that when determining the optimal mixing refrigerant ratio parameter, when the natural gas parameter condition changes, it is necessary to continuously manually modify the parameters of the natural gas liquefaction process model, resulting in low optimization efficiency.

[0048] In an alternative embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned optimization device for the mixing refrigerant ratio parameters further includes a first sampling unit and a second sampling unit.

In this embodiment, the mixing refrigerant ratio parameters include the proportion X of each refrigerant in the mixing refrigerant i , the parameter values of the natural gas to be liquefied include the temperature T, pressure P of the natural gas quality condition to be liquefied, and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ) of each gas in the natural gas to be liquefied. The second value range includes the upper and lower limits of the proportion X i of each refrigerant, and the first value range includes the upper and lower limits of the possible change range of the temperature T, pressure P of the natural gas quality condition to be liquefied, and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ) of each gas in the natural gas to be liquefied set according to the actual situation. The value range of the proportion X i of each refrigerant can be expressed by the inequality xi,min ≤X i ≤x i,max means that, where x i,min is the lower limit of the proportion X of each refrigerant, and x i is the upper limit of the proportion X of each refrigerant. The value range of the temperature T can be expressed by the inequality t i,max ≤T i ≤t i,min means that, where t i is the lower limit of the temperature T, and t i,max is the upper limit of the temperature T. The value range of the pressure P can be expressed by the inequality p i,min ≤P i,max ≤p i,min means that, where p i is the lower limit of the pressure P, and p i,max is the upper limit of the pressure P. The value range of the proportion Z of each gas i,min can be expressed by the inequality z i,max ≤Z i ≤z i,min means that, where z i is the lower limit of the proportion Z of each gas, and z i,max is the upper limit of the proportion Z of each gas. Set the proportion X of each refrigerant i,min , and the gas quality conditions of the liquefied natural gas to be liquefied, namely the temperature T, the pressure P, and the proportions of each gas in the liquefied natural gas to be liquefied (Z1,..., Z i ) all follow a uniform distribution. As i,max shown, in the set first value range and second value range, the Latin hypercube sampling method is used to perform N stratified samplings to obtain an N*M parameter matrix. Among them, the sum of the proportions of all refrigerants is 1, and the sum of the proportions of all gases in the liquefied natural gas to be liquefied is 1. The parameter matrix includes multiple parameter combinations {X1,..., X i , T, P, Z1,..., Z i}, and each parameter combination {X1,..., X n , T, P, Z1,..., Z i} contains a total of M parameters, including the above first parameters to be fitted {X1,..., X n} and the corresponding second parameters to be fitted {T, P, Z1,..., Z i}. Among them, sampling is performed within the first value range, that is, only considering the possible set values of the temperature T, the pressure P, and the proportions of each gas in the liquefied natural gas to be liquefied (Z1,..., Z n ) in the actual situation, and sampling is performed within the second value range, that is, only considering the proportion X of each refrigerant in the mixed refrigerant in the actual situation i} in the actual situation n} and the corresponding second parameters to be fitted {T, P, Z1,..., Z n} in the actual situation i ) in the actual situation, and sampling is performed within the second value range, that is, only considering the proportion X of each refrigerant in the mixed refrigerant in the actual situation iPossible set values improve the calculation speed during the optimization process and further enhance the optimization efficiency of the mixed refrigerant ratio parameters.

The execution unit is configured to input each of the first parameters to be fitted and the corresponding second parameters to be fitted into a natural gas liquefaction process model to obtain a plurality of the compressor specific power consumptions. The natural gas liquefaction process model is a PID model established using a process simulation software according to the natural gas liquefaction process, and the PID model includes a plurality of devices for the natural gas liquefaction process. In this embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the N parameter combinations {X1,..., X i , T, P, Z1,..., Z n} obtained by the Latin hypercube sampling method are respectively substituted into the natural gas liquefaction process model, i.e., the LNG liquefaction process model, for calculation to obtain the compressor power consumption and the liquefied natural gas production corresponding to each parameter combination, and calculate the ratio of the compressor power consumption to the liquefied natural gas production to obtain the corresponding compressor specific power consumption y, and further obtain the result vector {y1,..., y n}, and thus obtain each group of data to be fitted. Each group of data to be fitted includes a parameter combination and the corresponding compressor specific power consumption.

[0050] In an alternative embodiment of the present application, the optimization device for the mixed refrigerant ratio parameters further includes a fitting unit. The fitting unit is configured to fit each group of the data to be fitted using the fitting algorithm to obtain the specific power consumption estimation function. In this embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, in the Python software, using the fitting algorithm, i.e., the multivariate adaptive regression spline method, to fit the result vector {y1,..., y n} and the parameter matrix N*M to obtain the non-linear mapping relationship between the compressor specific power consumption y and the proportion X i of each refrigerant, the temperature T, pressure P of the natural gas quality conditions to be liquefied, and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ) of each gas in the natural gas to be liquefied. When the parameter combination {X1,..., X i , T, P, Z1,..., Z n} changes, input the parameter combination {X1,..., X i , T, P, Z1,..., Z n} into the specific power consumption estimation function, and the corresponding compressor specific power consumption y can be obtained, without the need to calculate according to the parameter combination {X1,..., X i , T, P, Z1,..., Z n}Manually readjust the parameters of the natural gas liquefaction process model again, and calculate the ratio of the compressor power consumption to the liquefied natural gas production to obtain the compressor specific power consumption. Compared with the prior art's optimization method for the mixed refrigerant ratio parameters, in this application, since a specific power consumption estimation function is constructed, the calculation amount in the optimization process is reduced, and the optimization efficiency is improved.

[0051] In an alternative embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned optimization device for the mixed refrigerant ratio parameters further includes a modeling unit and a configuration unit. The above-mentioned modeling unit is used to establish the above-mentioned PID model on the above-mentioned process simulation software according to the above-mentioned natural gas liquefaction process; the above-mentioned configuration unit is used to configure the parameters of the above-mentioned equipment in the above-mentioned PID model according to the above-mentioned actual working conditions to obtain the above-mentioned natural gas liquefaction process model. In this embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, according to the natural gas liquefaction process, that is, the LNG liquefaction process, use the Aspen Plus process simulation software to establish a PID model including all the equipment used in the LNG liquefaction process, and configure the parameters of each equipment according to the actual working conditions to obtain the natural gas liquefaction process model, that is, the LNG liquefaction process model, and simulate the entire LNG liquefaction process to ensure that the above-mentioned obtained compressor specific power consumption fits the actual situation, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the determined optimization result of the mixed refrigerant ratio.

[0052] In an alternative embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned determination unit includes a calculation module. The above-mentioned calculation module is used to use the minimum value of the above-mentioned compressor specific power consumption as the output value of the above-mentioned specific power consumption estimation function, and use the above-mentioned non-linear optimization algorithm to inversely solve the input value of the above-mentioned specific power consumption estimation function to obtain the above-mentioned optimal ratio parameter value. In this embodiment, after solving the minimum value of the compressor specific power consumption y, inversely solve to obtain the parameter combination {X1,..., X i , T, P, Z1,..., Z n}, and then obtain the proportion X i of each refrigerant at this time. The proportion X i of each refrigerant corresponding at this time is the optimal ratio result. The temperature T, pressure P of the natural gas quality conditions to be liquefied and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ) of each gas in the natural gas to be liquefied should be the temperature T, pressure P of the natural gas quality conditions to be liquefied and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ) under the actual working conditions.

[0053] In an alternative embodiment of the present application, the specific power consumption estimation function established by the fitting algorithm, that is, the multivariate adaptive regression spline method, is used as the objective function to be optimized. Its constraint conditions include: the sum of the proportions of all refrigerants X i is 1, and the value range of the proportion of each refrigerant X i component is x i,min ≤ Xi ≤ x i,max , the value range of the temperature T of the liquefied natural gas quality condition to be liquefied is t i,min ≤ T i ≤ t i,max , the value range of the pressure P is p i,min ≤ P i ≤ p i,max , for the proportion Z of each gas in the liquefied natural gas to be liquefied i , the value range is z i,min ≤ Z i ≤ z i,max , after obtaining the objective function and constraint conditions, use the non - linear optimization algorithm to solve the minimum value of the obtained objective function y under the constraint conditions. At this time, the proportion X of each refrigerant i is the optimization result of the ratio. Note that when solving, the temperature T, pressure P of the liquefied natural gas quality condition to be liquefied and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ) of each gas in the liquefied natural gas to be liquefied should be the temperature T, pressure P of the liquefied natural gas quality condition and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ) under the actual working conditions. And compared with the optimization method of the mixed refrigerant ratio parameters in the prior art, when the temperature T, pressure P of the liquefied natural gas quality condition and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ) change, it is necessary to manually adjust the parameters of the natural gas liquefaction process model according to the parameter combination {X1,..., X i , T, P, Z1,..., Z n}, calculate the ratio of the compressor power consumption to the liquefied natural gas production to obtain the compressor specific power consumption. In this application, when the temperature T, pressure P of the liquefied natural gas quality condition and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ) change, there is no need to rebuild the LNG liquefaction process model or reconstruct the mathematical function. Directly modify the temperature T, pressure P of the liquefied natural gas quality condition to be liquefied and the proportion (Z1,..., Z n ), and use the non - linear optimization algorithm to solve the minimum value of the obtained objective function y under the new constraint conditions. After reverse solution, the new optimization result of the ratio can be obtained, which improves the calculation efficiency of the mixed refrigerant ratio optimization process.
