Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical energy, and in particular relates to an integrated energy station of ammonia working fluid coupled with fuel and an operation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The Kalina power cycle system is a power cycle power generation system with ammonia water mixture as the working fluid. Because of the variable temperature characteristics of ammonia water in the evaporation-condensation heat exchange process, it can be applied to the field of waste heat recovery, and is also applied to clean energy fields such as solar energy, geothermal energy, and biomass energy. At present, the cycle power generation system has the following shortcomings and problems: ① Constrained by the circulation system, the waste heat recovery and utilization efficiency is limited; ② The equipment selection requires accuracy, and there is a lack of other operation correction means after construction; ③ The system has limited means of matching and adjusting heat sources with large dynamic reciprocating and intermittent changes in temperature or flow; ④ The system relies on the normal operation of the cold source; ⑤ The subcooling degree of the conventional unit condensing end is low, and the ammonia water pump is prone to cavitation; ⑥ If the cold source end is used for heat, increasing the temperature parameters requires increasing the system back pressure, which affects the system output; ⑦ The heat source system below 60°C is not economical.

[0003] CN214577243U discloses a Kalina coupled power generation system based on solar amino thermochemical energy storage, including an amino thermochemical energy storage system and a Kalina circulation system, wherein the outlet of the separator is respectively connected to the hot end inlets of the sixth heat exchanger and the seventh heat exchanger, and the seventh heat exchanger and the eighth heat exchanger are connected to the feed water pump in sequence to form a loop; the sixth heat exchanger, the throttle valve, the fifth heat exchanger and the condensation pump are connected in sequence to form a loop; the inlet of the separator is connected to the sixth heat exchanger through the fourth heat exchanger; the inlet of the turbine and the cold end outlet of the seventh heat exchanger are respectively interconnected with the amino thermochemical energy storage system, and the outlet is connected to the hot end inlet of the fifth heat exchanger through the fourth heat exchanger, and the outlet pipeline of the throttle valve is interconnected with the fourth pipeline.

[0004] CN102337934A discloses a combined cycle power generation system for improving the efficiency of heat source utilization, including a steam boiler, which is sequentially connected in series to a steam turbine, a condenser and a feed pump, and the feed pump is connected back to the steam boiler to form a Rankine power cycle, and also includes an ammonia evaporator, which is once connected in series to an ammonia vapor-liquid separator, an ammonia absorber / condenser, an ammonia storage tank and an ammonia feed pump, and the ammonia feed pump is connected back to the ammonia evaporator to form a Kalina power cycle.

[0005] However, the above two coupling systems cannot completely solve the problems of Kalina's power cycle system. Since ammonia is one of the most basic chemical raw materials in the world, it has been widely used in the refrigeration industry and has mature industrial preparation technology and transportation system. At the same time, it is also a zero-carbon clean energy and is considered to be an excellent carrier of hydrogen energy. It is stable and safe in nature, inexpensive and easy to store and transport. The energy system centered on ammonia has broad prospects, but there are still the following shortcomings or problems: ① Ammonia stored in liquid form must be vaporized before use, releasing a large amount of cold energy. It is conventionally heated by a hot water boiler, which increases equipment; ② It consumes both cold energy and heat energy; ③ Low temperature affects subsequent combustion and other energy utilization processes.

[0006] In summary, how to utilize the characteristics of ammonia as both an energy carrier and a working medium of the circulation system, fully couple the two, and transform disadvantages into advantages to form complementarity has become a problem that needs to be solved urgently.

[0066] The following are typical but non-limiting embodiments of the present invention:

[0067] Embodiment 1:

[0068] This embodiment provides an integrated energy station with ammonia working fluid coupled with fuel and an operation method thereof.

[0085] Comparative Example 1:

[0086] This comparative example provides an integrated energy station for coupling ammonia working fluid with fuel and an operation method thereof. The integrated energy station refers to the integrated energy station in Example 1, except that: the first heat exchange unit B is not included, that is, the liquid phase outlet of the separator is directly connected to the second liquid phase inlet of the absorber. The structural schematic diagram is shown in FIG. Figure 2 shown.

[0087] The operation method of the above-mentioned integrated energy station includes:

[0088] Divide the liquid ammonia from the liquid ammonia tank into two streams;

[0089] The first stream of liquid ammonia is evaporated in the evaporator and then enters the separator to obtain gas phase and liquid phase; the separated gas phase enters the ammonia turbine generator set to generate electricity, and the gas phase after power generation enters the absorber to become liquid phase, and then passes through the heat energy recovery device and the liquid ammonia gasifier in turn for heat exchange, and the liquid phase after heat exchange flows into the evaporator through the ammonia water pump G to form a cycle; the separated liquid phase enters the absorber;

[0090] At the same time, the second stream of liquid ammonia enters the liquid ammonia gasifier, exchanges heat with the liquid phase from the heat energy recovery device, and then flows into the ammonia energy center I.

[0091] The cold source inlet temperature of the evaporator is controlled to be 70°C, and the cold source outlet temperature is controlled to be 110°C;

[0092] Controlling the temperature of the gas phase outlet of the separator to be 100-110°C and the temperature of the liquid phase outlet to be 100-110°C;

[0096] In the integrated energy station in this comparative example, the ammonia content entering the evaporator is reduced because there is no ammonia water cooler, which reduces the absorption of heat on the hot side of the evaporator, reduces the amount of ammonia overflowing from the gas phase of the separator, and accordingly, the power generation of the ammonia turbine generator set is reduced. In addition, the temperature of the liquid phase loop solution of the separator increases, resulting in a weakening of the subsequent absorption process effect, which ultimately leads to an increase in the back pressure of the ammonia turbine generator set and reduces the output of the unit by 30% to 40%. The working condition of the ammonia water pump deteriorates and cavitation is prone to occur. The energy required to heat the liquid ammonia entering the ammonia energy center and evaporate it into ammonia requires additional consumption.

[0097] Comparative Example 2:

[0098] This comparative example provides an integrated energy station with ammonia working fluid coupled to fuel and an operation method thereof. The integrated energy station refers to the integrated energy station in Example 1, except that: the third heat exchange unit D is not included, that is, the heat source outlet of the heat energy recovery device is directly connected to the cold source inlet of the evaporator through the ammonia pump G. The structural schematic diagram is shown in FIG. Figure 3 shown.

[0099] The operation method of the above-mentioned integrated energy station includes:

[0100] Divide the liquid ammonia from the liquid ammonia tank into two streams;

[0101] The first stream of liquid ammonia is evaporated in the evaporator and then enters the separator to obtain gas phase and liquid phase; the separated gas phase enters the ammonia turbine generator set to generate electricity, and the gas phase after power generation enters the absorber to become liquid phase, and then enters the heat energy recovery device for heat exchange, and the liquid phase after heat exchange flows into the evaporator through the ammonia water pump G to form a cycle;

[0102] At the same time, the second stream of liquid ammonia enters the ammonia water cooler, and after heat exchange with the liquid phase from the separator, part of it flows into the evaporator, and the other part flows into the ammonia energy center I; while the liquid phase from the separator flows into the absorber after heat exchange;

[0103] The cold source inlet temperature of the evaporator is controlled to be 70°C, and the cold source outlet temperature is controlled to be 110°C;

[0104] Controlling the temperature of the gas phase outlet of the separator to be 100-110°C and the temperature of the liquid phase outlet to be 100-110°C;

[0105] Controlling the outlet temperature of the ammonia turbine generator set to 60-70° C.;

[0106] The heat source inlet temperature of the ammonia water cooler is controlled to be 100°C, the heat source outlet temperature is controlled to be 40°C, and the cold source outlet temperature is controlled to be 20°C;

[0107] The heat source inlet temperature of the heat energy recovery device is controlled to be 40-50°C, and the heat source outlet temperature is controlled to be 30-40°C.

[0108] The integrated energy station in this comparative example is limited by the ability of the heat recovery device to cool the ammonia working fluid. The back pressure of the ammonia turbine generator set increases, and the power generation output of the unit decreases by 20% to 30%. The working condition of the ammonia pump deteriorates, and cavitation is prone to occur. The energy required to heat and evaporate the liquid ammonia entering the ammonia energy center into ammonia gas requires additional consumption.

[0109] From the above embodiments and comparative examples, it can be seen that the integrated energy station of the present invention couples and optimizes the Kalina cycle power generation system with the ammonia energy system, thereby expanding the heat source recovery range, recovering low-temperature heat sources, realizing deep recovery of waste heat, and improving the thermoelectric conversion efficiency; the mechanical seal part of the ammonia turbine is greatly simplified, extending the maintenance cycle; the design is more flexible, providing diversified configurations to meet various customized needs; and the corresponding operating mode adjustment can be made for design deviations or long-term deviations of the unit from the original operating conditions; the working conditions of the ammonia pump of the key power equipment are improved, and the reliability is improved; liquid ammonia is used as a cold source for heat exchange, which increases the temperature of ammonia entering the ammonia energy center, optimizes the ammonia energy utilization process, and improves the utilization rate of ammonia resources.
