[0030] Embodiment one:

[0031] The present embodiment provides a gas concentration control method for a gas generator unit, and the actual power corresponding to the intake pressure and the intake temperature corresponding to the intake pressure are obtained in advance, as shown in Figure 1 The method specifically comprises the following steps:

[0032] The intake pressure of the gas generator unit is obtained, the gas concentration range is automatically adjusted according to the change of the intake pressure, and the gas concentration range is corrected through the intake temperature;

[0033] The calculation power is obtained according to the intake pressure and the correction parameter;

[0034] The protection measure is determined by calculating the difference range between the power and the actual power.

[0035] The embodiment utilizes the characteristics of the pressure in the intake cavity of the external mixing single-point injection gas unit, relies on the change of the pressure in the intake cavity to automatically adjust the gas concentration of the unit, and slowly corrects the range of the control through the temperature.

[0036] In the embodiment, the correction parameters include a temperature correction value, a concentration correction value, an exhaust temperature correction value, and a manual correction value.

[0037] According to the good running state of the gas generator unit, the intake pressure of the unit is recorded, for example, as shown in Table 1. Figure 2 Taking a 1000GF9-WD low-gas unit as an example, when the power is 950 KW and the intake temperature is 30°C, the intake pressure range of the unit is 2 bar to 2.06 bar. After obtaining the pressure range of multiple power points, the corresponding relationship between the actual power and the intake pressure is calculated.

[0038] 1. Temperature correction value:

[0039] When the intake temperature changes, the relationship between the intake temperature and the intake pressure is calculated according to the Clapeyron equation PV = nRT to obtain the temperature correction value. The specific method is that the correction value is 1 at 20 degrees Celsius, and the formula is: temperature correction value = (273 + intake temperature) / 293.

[0040] 2. Concentration correction value:

[0041] According to the actual running situation on site, the relationship between the gas concentration and the intake pressure is designed. The specific method is that when the CH4 concentration is greater than 15%, the concentration correction value is equal to the default value 1, and when the concentration is less than or equal to 15%, the formula is:

[0042] Concentration correction value = 1 - (15 - gas concentration) / 500

[0043] The concentration correction value changes.

[0044] 3. Exhaust temperature correction value:

[0045] According to the highest exhaust temperature and the lowest exhaust temperature when the unit is running well, the exhaust temperature range is obtained; when the exhaust temperature exceeds the above range, it is slowly corrected to obtain the exhaust temperature correction value.

[0046] The specific method is that when the average exhaust temperature is between the highest exhaust temperature and the lowest exhaust temperature, the correction value is normally defaulted to 1, when the average exhaust temperature is higher than the upper limit of the set value, the exhaust temperature correction value slowly increases by 0.01 every 30 seconds, and when the average exhaust temperature is lower than the lower limit of the set value, the exhaust temperature correction value slowly decreases by 0.01 every 30 seconds.

[0047] 4. Manual correction value:

[0048] In order to adapt to the change of field gas source, a manual correction value manually inputted in the field is introduced.

[0049] 5. Finally, the following is obtained:

[0050] Actual value of intake pressure control = manual correction value * temperature correction value * concentration correction value * exhaust temperature correction value * pressure set value.

[0051] The protection measures of the embodiment include exhaust temperature reduction, parking, gas fluctuation reduction and exhaust temperature difference reduction.

[0052] In order to prevent the gas generator set from changing the pressure state due to the fact that some cylinders do not work, a mode of reducing load to 320KW is set when the exhaust temperature difference of each cylinder is greater than 150 degrees; in order to prevent the measurement error of the sensor or the adjustment speed from not following the change speed of the concentration, a mode of reducing load to 400KW is set when any cylinder exhaust temperature is higher than 670 degrees, and the set continues to be higher than 690 degrees, and the generator set is parked; in order to prevent the measurement from being affected by the serious instability of the generator set, a mode of reducing load to 320KW is set when the power fluctuation exceeds the limit value of 300KW.

[0053] In order to more directly protect the gas generator set, the power of the generator set is calculated, and when the difference between the calculated power and the actual power is too large, the generator set is slowly reduced.

[0054] In the formula, the calculated pressure = intake pressure / (manual correction value * concentration correction value * temperature correction value * exhaust temperature correction value);

[0055] Calculated power = high power-(high power-low power)*(high power corresponding pressure-calculated pressure) / (high power corresponding pressure-low power corresponding pressure).

[0056] In the embodiment, the intake temperature and the intake pressure are used to automatically adjust the size of the gas concentration, so that the generator set always works at the set pressure under the corresponding power, thereby making the running state of the generator set stable and optimal.

[0057] As shown in Figure 3 The embodiment sets the exhaust temperature reduction, parking, gas fluctuation reduction and exhaust temperature difference reduction mode, in order to prevent sudden changes from being adjusted, after the generator set is closed, the power of the generator set is calculated, and when the difference between the calculated power and the actual power reaches a certain value (for example, 150KW), the concentration is adjusted and the load is slowly reduced.

[0058] In the embodiment, the adjustment and protection measures are combined, so that the generator set automatically adapts to the change of the gas concentration, improves the efficiency of the generator set, improves the emission of the generator set, and reduces the failure rate of the generator set.

[0060] The embodiment provides a gas concentration control system of a gas generator set, comprising:

[0061] A gas concentration range correction module is used for acquiring gas inlet pressure of the gas generator set, automatically adjusting the gas concentration range according to the change of the gas inlet pressure, and correcting the gas concentration range through the gas inlet temperature;

[0062] A calculated power acquisition module is used for obtaining the calculated power according to the gas inlet pressure and the correction parameter;

[0063] A protection measure determination module is used for determining the protection measure through the difference range of the calculated power and the actual power.

[0064] Embodiment three:

[0065] The embodiment provides a computer readable storage medium, which stores a computer program, and the program is executed by a processor to realize the steps in the gas concentration control method of the gas generator set.

[0066] Embodiment four:
