Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of thermal power unit measurement, in particular to a condenser water level vacuum measurement compensation method and a measurement device thereof. Background Art
[0002] Condenser vacuum is an important indicator of turbine operation and a major assessment indicator of the comprehensive performance of the condenser. It affects the safe and economic operation of the unit. The vacuum level of the condenser has a direct impact on the economy of the turbine generator unit. For example, if the vacuum of the unit drops by 1%, the heat consumption of the unit will increase by 0.6% to 1%. Therefore, maintaining the vacuum of the condenser is an important guarantee for the economic operation of the unit and an important part of energy conservation in every power plant. Low condenser vacuum has the following hazards: (1) The economy of the unit decreases and the output of the unit is reduced; (2) The exhaust cylinder and the bearing seat expand due to heat, which may cause the center to change and generate vibration; (3) Excessive exhaust temperature may cause the titanium tube of the condenser to loosen and damage the tightness; (4) The axial thrust of the turbine increases; (5) The volume flow of the exhaust steam decreases, which is not conducive to the operation of the last few stages of blades. The last stage will produce flow separation and swirl, and at the same time, it will generate a large exciting force at a certain part of the blade, which may damage the blade and cause an accident.
[0003] Condenser hot well storage - quantitative condensate to ensure that the condensate pump will not be cut off immediately when the load is dumped. Generally, the water level of the condenser hot well should be maintained between 1 / 3 and 2 / 3 of the well. If the condenser water level is too high, part of the condenser tube bundle will be submerged, the space for turbine exhaust condensation will be reduced, the heat exchange space will be reduced, the exhaust temperature will increase, the vacuum will decrease, and the economy of the unit will decrease. If the water level is too low, the condensate pump consumes less power, but it is easy to cause the pump to vaporize, causing serious damage to the impeller, and causing certain vibrations and outlet pressure swings in the pump during operation. No matter which of the above abnormal conditions occurs, it will directly affect the safety and economy of the unit.
[0004] Therefore, for the safe operation of the unit, it is necessary to accurately measure the vacuum degree and water level in the condenser to keep the vacuum degree and water level in the condenser within a safe range. Summary of the invention

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0031] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 1 As shown, a condenser water level vacuum measuring device is proposed, which includes a calculation unit 900, a condenser and a condenser hot well, a measuring tube 600, a measuring device, an upper connecting pipe 200 and a lower connecting pipe.
[0032] In some embodiments of the present application, the vacuum degree and water level in the condenser and the condenser hot well are data that need to be detected, and a measuring tube 600 is provided to be connected to the condenser hot well, including an upper connecting pipe 200 connecting the upper part of the condenser hot well and the lower part of the measuring device, so that the gas of the condenser hot well and the measuring tube 600 are connected, and a lower connecting pipe connects the lower part of the condenser hot well and the lower part of the measuring tube 600, so that the water level of the condenser hot well and the measuring tube 600 are connected.
[0033] Therefore, by setting up upper and lower connecting pipes, the vacuum degree and water level in the measuring tube 600 are made the same as the data in the condenser hot well. The data in the condenser hot well can be measured only by the parameters in the measuring tube 600, which facilitates the installation of the measuring device.
[0034] In some specific embodiments, the measuring tube 600 is a cylinder with both ends of a seamless steel pipe with a diameter of φ200 to φ300 mm sealed and welded; one end of the upper connecting tube 200 extends into the upper part of the condenser hot well by 30 to 40 mm, and one end of the lower connecting tube extends into the bottom of the condenser hot well by 40 to 50 mm.
[0035] In some embodiments of the present application, the measuring device also includes a computing unit 900 and a measuring device, the computing unit 900 is configured with a condenser water level vacuum measurement compensation method, the measuring device is electrically connected to the computing unit 900, and the measured data is transmitted to the computing unit 900, and the computing unit 900 performs calculations and controls.
[0036] The measuring device includes a vacuum measuring device, a water level measuring device and an exhaust thermometer 630, wherein the exhaust thermometer 630 is arranged at the exhaust port of the condenser to directly measure the accurate temperature, and the vacuum measuring device and the water level measuring device are arranged at the measuring tube 600. By measuring the vacuum degree and the water level of the measuring tube 600, the vacuum degree and the water level of the condenser hot well can be obtained.
[0037] In some specific embodiments of the present application, the vacuum degree measuring device is a vacuum gauge 610, and the vacuum gauge 610 uses an imported diffused silicon or ceramic core as a pressure detection element. The vacuum gauge 610 is installed at the upper end of the pressure pipe of the vacuum gauge 610, and the lower end of the pressure pipe of the vacuum gauge 610 extends into the measuring tube 600 from the top connecting port of the measuring tube 600.
[0038] In some specific embodiments of the present application, the water level height measuring device is a high-frequency radar level meter 620. The design of the high-frequency radar level meter 620 is based on the principle of time domain reflection, and is mainly composed of a transmitting and receiving device, a signal processor, an antenna, an operation panel, a display, a fault alarm, and the like. The radar level antenna transmits a 26GHz high-frequency microwave pulse, which is transmitted downward through the antenna. After the microwave contacts the surface of the measured medium, it is reflected back and received by the antenna system again. The echo signal is analyzed and processed by the electronic microprocessor and converted into real-time liquid level information represented by an analog quantity of 4 to 20 mA with the help of software.
[0039] The measurements of the vacuum gauge 610 and the high-frequency radar level gauge 620 are in-situ measurements, which are highly real-time and relevant. This feature is used to perform intelligent compensation of the measurement data to improve the measurement accuracy and anti-interference ability of the condenser water level and vacuum.
[0040] In some embodiments of the present application, the measuring device also includes an upper valve 400 and a lower valve 500, which are respectively the first valve of the upper connecting pipe 200, the second valve of the upper connecting pipe 200, the first valve of the lower connecting pipe and the second valve of the lower connecting pipe, and are respectively used to control the connection between the upper connecting pipe 200 and the lower connecting pipe.
[0041] In some embodiments of the present application, a condenser water level vacuum measurement compensation method is also disclosed, which is used to add compensation data to the measurement result when an error occurs in the measurement, so as to obtain a more accurate measurement result.
[0042] The measurement compensation method includes: step S101, processing historical data of water level vacuum parameters within a preset time interval based on multivariate state estimation to generate a compensation training model.
[0043] Specifically, multivariate state estimation is an intelligent pattern recognition technology that realizes state estimation by measuring the similarity between signals under normal conditions. It utilizes normal historical data and learns the relationship between various parameters that can define the system state. By comparing the normal operating state stored in the system with the current observation state, it calculates an estimate of the parameter state of the current measuring device. For new observation vectors of the measuring device, multivariate state estimation predicts the actual parameter state of the measuring device from the learned pattern to participate in intelligent compensation. Therefore, in this embodiment, the historical data of water level vacuum parameters within a time interval of normal operation is learned and the relationship between parameters is defined, and a compensation training model containing the above information is generated to realize the prediction of measurement data.
[0044] In order to generate a compensation training model with high prediction accuracy, in some embodiments of the present application, generating the compensation training model is specifically: within the time interval, obtaining the observation vectors under different working conditions or at different times and generating a process memory matrix.
[0045] Specifically, the time interval includes the first moment, and the water level vacuum parameter at the first moment includes multiple variables, such as vacuum degree, water level height, temperature and other parameters. These variables are recorded as observation vectors, and the public expression is:
[0046] X(i)=[x 1 x 2 … x n ] T
[0047] Among them, i is the first moment and n is the number of variables.
[0048] In the time interval, the observation vectors of different working conditions or multiple moments are obtained to generate the process memory matrix, which is expressed as follows:
[0049]
[0050] Among them, m is the number of working conditions, and D is the process memory matrix.
[0051] Thus, the obtained process memory matrix D is a preliminary compensation training model, which includes water level vacuum parameters under multiple moments and multiple working conditions within a normal working time interval.
[0052] In some embodiments of the present application, in step S102, a predicted water level vacuum parameter is determined according to the compensation training model.
[0053] The specific compensation training model includes various water level vacuum parameters under various working conditions during normal working periods, and the water level vacuum parameters change over time. Therefore, the learning ability of the compensation training model can be used to predict the normal value of the measurement.
[0054] In order to obtain accurate predicted water level vacuum parameters, in some embodiments, the predicted water level vacuum parameters are determined according to the compensation training model, specifically:
[0055] The process memory matrix and the measured water level vacuum parameter are compared, and the most similar value of the measured water level vacuum parameter is found in the process memory matrix, and the most similar value is the predicted water level vacuum parameter.
[0056] It should be noted that the new measured water level vacuum parameters and the historical measured water level vacuum parameters in the process memory matrix are reflected by calculating the Euclidean distance between them. Assuming that the new measured water level vacuum parameters are most similar to the historical measured water level vacuum parameters in the process memory matrix, the Euclidean distance between the two is the smallest, and the most similar historical measured water level vacuum parameters are the predicted water level vacuum parameters.
[0057] In order to obtain accurate predicted water level vacuum parameters, in some embodiments, the predicted water level vacuum parameters are determined according to the compensation training model, and the calculation process is specifically as follows:
[0058] The process memory matrix and the measured water level vacuum parameter are obtained and normalized, that is:
[0059]
[0060] Among them, X max , X min are the measured water level vacuum parameters X i The upper and lower bounds of , X is the value obtained after normalization;
[0061] Combining the normalized values with the process memory matrix to obtain a similarity matrix;
[0062] The predicted water level vacuum parameter is obtained according to the similarity matrix.
[0063] It should be noted that the normalization process is to map all data to 0-1. By normalizing the measured water level vacuum parameters and the process memory matrix, the similarity matrix obtained includes the similarity between each vector and the measured water level vacuum parameters. The vector most similar to the measured water level vacuum parameters is found and then denormalized again. The vector is the predicted water level vacuum parameter.
[0064] In some embodiments of the present application, after obtaining the predicted water level vacuum parameter, it includes: acquiring the predicted water level vacuum parameter and the measured water level vacuum parameter, and calculating the residual between the predicted water level vacuum parameter and the measured water level vacuum parameter; if the residual is outside the range of the preset accurate residual, regenerating the process memory matrix.
[0065] Specifically, the compensation training model improves the prediction accuracy in continuous learning. The accuracy of the compensation training model is measured by the residual between the predicted water level vacuum parameter and the measured water level vacuum parameter. The residual sets a preset accurate residual range. If the residual is within the preset accurate range, it is determined that the vector matrix in the current training model is sufficient to predict the accurate predicted water level vacuum parameter. If the residual is outside the preset accurate residual range, the measured water level vacuum parameter is used as historical data to regenerate the process memory matrix.
[0066] In some embodiments of the present application, step S103 is included to obtain a measured water level vacuum parameter, and generate a compensated water level vacuum parameter according to a difference between the predicted water level vacuum parameter and the measured water level vacuum parameter.
[0067] Specifically, after obtaining accurate predicted water level vacuum parameters, compensated water level vacuum parameters are generated according to the difference between the predicted water level vacuum parameters and the measured water level vacuum parameters to compensate for the error between the measured water level vacuum parameters and the actual data during measurement, thereby improving the measurement accuracy and anti-interference ability.
[0068] In some embodiments of the present application, a condenser water level vacuum measurement compensation method is proposed, the steps of the method are:
[0069] S201, obtaining historical data of water level vacuum parameters within a preset time interval, generating a process memory matrix, wherein the historical data includes observation vectors at multiple moments and under different working conditions, and the observation vector at each moment or each working condition includes multiple variables; executing S202.
