However, the screw machine needs to use lubricating oil, and in the actual use process, there are problems of difficult oil-gas separation and low operation efficiency. Therefore, the present application designs a complete system based on the operation mode of the air-floating differential pressure radial turbine generator set, so that the generator set can be automatically operated, and the efficient and clean recovery of the pressure energy of natural gas is realized.

[0043] In the embodiment, the natural gas metering assembly is arranged, which is used for metering the natural gas of the independent branch and adjusting the flow of the main adjusting valve PV01.

[0044] In the embodiment, the pneumatic ball valve AOV is used for relieving the pressure of the natural gas in the main branch after the safety shut-off valve SSV is closed, and prevents the turbine set from flying.

[0045] In this embodiment, a high-efficiency filter GF02 and a differential pressure transmitter PDT02 are provided, whose main function is to perform secondary filtration on the bearing gas before supply; a buffer tank and a check valve CHV01 are provided, mainly to ensure the bearing gas required for the air-floating bearing when the turbine drops from the rated speed to shutdown after the safety shut-off valve SSV is tripped; a regulating valve PV03 and a high-frequency solenoid valve SOV are provided, which work together, and combined with the regulating valve PV04 of the cooling gas branch, the bearing gas supply is stable and the differential pressure between the B port and the C1 port\C2 port of the turbine is maintained constant through a combination of fast and slow regulation; a pressure transmitter PT05 and a pressure transmitter PT06 are also provided, which take two out of two and calculate the bearing gas pressure difference comprehensively with the two pressure transmitters on the cooling gas branch.

[0047] In this embodiment, the power gas enters from port A and impacts the first-stage impeller. After expansion and work, the natural gas temperature decreases, and a small amount of gas enters the stator and rotor chambers for stator cooling and is discharged from ports C1 and C2. The majority of the gas continues to impact the second-stage impeller, generating work, and is then discharged into the outlet pipeline from port D. Port B draws air for the air-floating bearings. At the same time, due to the higher air pressure in the first and second impeller chambers, the bearing gas enters the stator and rotor chambers and is discharged from ports C1 and C2 along with the cooling gas. The operating requirement of the air-floating turbine is to ensure that the pressure difference between the two ends of the bearing gas is maintained within a constant range.

[0048] This embodiment also proposes a control method for a natural gas floating differential pressure radial turbine power generation system. Figure 4 , applicable to the above-mentioned natural gas floating differential pressure radial turbine power generation system, including power generation power control, bearing gas control and safety control; power generation power control includes: input power set value W.SP and adjust it after calculating the error with the power feedback W.FB from the grid end, and output flow set value Q.SP, adjust it after calculating the error with the flow feedback Q.FB from FIQ01, and finally output the valve position value PV of the control valve to drive the main control valve PV01 and the main control valve PV02 for adjustment.

[0049] refer to Figure 4 , bearing gas control includes: calculating the error after calculating the differential pressure set value dP.SP and the feedback value dP.FB calculated comprehensively from the pressure transmitter PT05, pressure transmitter PT06, pressure transmitter PT07 and pressure transmitter PT08, and outputting the valve position value Y to the regulating valve PV03 and the high-frequency solenoid valve SOV.

[0050] refer to Figure 5 ,Safety control mainly includes signal, process control and electrical linkage control. ,Specific details are described here in detail as follows.

[0051] Specifically, the signals are mainly shutdown trigger signals, mainly turbine rotor overspeed, power imbalance (excessive current), filter failure, overpressure, overflow and overtemperature, bearing gas out of control, excessive vibration of the machine body, control system failure, online system failure (including abnormal disconnection from the power grid), process equipment failure, and manual shutdown.

[0052] In terms of process control, when a shutdown signal is received, the safety shut-off valve (SSV) will be triggered to cut off and the pneumatic ball valve (AOV) will balance the pressure. This will ensure that the unit speed is reduced in the process. At the same time, the stability of the bearing gas must be ensured and the bypass branch must be controlled for rapid compensation and adjustment to reduce disturbances to downstream users.

[0053] In the electrical system, a discharge device is set on one side of the turbine. The discharge device is equipped with a discharge resistor. When a shutdown signal is received, the discharge resistor is immediately put into the circuit to shorten the unit shutdown time and improve safety. Figure 5 As stated.

[0054] In this embodiment, the power generation control sets a cascade regulation mode of power → flow → valve position; however, there is an upper threshold for flow regulation, and when the upper threshold is exceeded, current limiting regulation will be performed; the power setting value has two types: grid AGC and manual setting, which need to be switched manually; in addition, flow regulation control can also be performed separately, and it is not affected by power regulation.

[0055] In this embodiment, the above control adopts single-stage mode regulation, and single-stage refers to single pressure difference regulation.

[0056] The bearing gas control adopts a single-stage, partitioned, and multi-interference input mode for adjustment. For the partition mode adjustment, partitioning refers to setting four values: high-high (HH), high (H), low (L), and low-low (LL). Among them, HH and LL are the warning values ​​of the turbine bearing gas supply pressure difference, and H and L are normal working values. Then, in the (-∞, LL], [HH, +∞) interval, it is adjusted by the regulating valve PV03, and in the (LL, HH) interval, it is adjusted by the high-frequency solenoid valve SOV. In addition, for the multi-interference input mode adjustment, multi-interference means that the feedback of the pressure difference is mainly affected by the change of the cooling air flow Q1 when the turbine load changes, the branch (downstream user of the station) outlet flow Q c Changes in buffer tank pressure (front-end gas working conditions) P c , the system design adopts feedforward control.

[0057] In this embodiment, security control can improve the security of the entire system.

[0058] The application sets a complete operation system based on the operation mode of the gas-floating differential pressure radial turbine generator set, so that the turbine set realizes stable operation, and the effective recovery of the natural gas pressure energy is realized.

[0059] The above examples are further elaboration and illustration of the application, so as to be understood, and are not any limitation of the application, any modification, equivalent replacement and improvement made within the spirit and principle of the application shall be included in the protection scope of the application.
