Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of air compressors, and relates to a centrifugal air compressor, in particular to a centrifugal air compressor surge control method and system, an electronic device and a storage medium. BACKGROUND
[0002] Surge is a unique phenomenon of centrifugal air compressor running at a certain working condition. When the air flow entering the air compressor cannot make the air compressor produce enough pressure, so that the pressure of the external system (external pipeline) is greater than the pressure inside the air compressor, causing the check valve to close. At this time, the air compressor has no output, and the air accumulates inside the air compressor, and the pressure continues to increase, until the accumulated pressure is greater than the pressure of the external system, the internal pressure of the air compressor bursts the check valve and discharges. After the gas is discharged, there is not enough air to maintain continuous output of the air compressor, the internal pressure of the air compressor decreases, the check valve closes, and the air re-accumulates inside the air compressor until the accumulated pressure is sufficient, and then discharges again, so on and so forth, resulting in a dramatic fluctuation of output pressure and motor load, frequent operation of the check valve, and a loud noise from the machine. This phenomenon is called surge.
[0003] As can be seen, when the exhaust flow of the centrifugal air compressor suddenly decreases or decreases to a certain extent, the airflow backflow caused may cause the unit to surge. The strong vibration caused by surge to the unit will cause serious damage to the bearings, seals and other parts of the unit.
[0004] The current surge control method for centrifugal air compressors is based on the positive correlation between exhaust flow and main motor current. The fluctuation of exhaust flow is indirectly judged by detecting the change rate of main motor current. Due to the indirect detection method, the cost needs to be increased and there is a delay in detection. The surge is detected by detecting the fluctuation of the exhaust pressure caused by the back and forth movement of the airflow when the surge occurs, so as to detect, prevent and eliminate the surge and protect the function.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a new centrifugal air compressor control method to overcome at least some of the above-mentioned defects of the existing centrifugal air compressor control method. SUMMARY
[0006] The present application provides a centrifugal air compressor surge control method, system, electronic device and storage medium, which can improve the stability of the centrifugal air compressor.

[0017] When the exhaust pressure variation ΔP is greater than the set allowable pressure variation value ΔP min , the current given guide vane valve opening degree V min is taken as the minimum anti-surge opening degree of the guide vane valve; the guide vane valve maintains the given value of the minimum anti-surge opening degree, and is switched to control the user exhaust flow;
[0018] When the user gas consumption starts to increase, the anti-surge valve opening degree is first closed, and after the anti-surge valve is fully closed, the controller automatically controls the guide vane valve to slowly increase.
[0019] As an embodiment of the present application, the step of obtaining the exhaust pressure variation intensity of the centrifugal air compressor specifically comprises:
[0020] The exhaust pressure values are collected by the controller, and the exhaust pressure values collected in each scanning cycle in time sequence are recorded as P1, P2, P3, …, Pn in turn;
[0021] The difference between the exhaust pressures collected in adjacent two times is calculated in real time in the PLC controller as the intensity value of the pressure variation, and is recorded as ΔP1, ΔP2, ΔP3, …, ΔPn;
[0022] The ΔPn>0 cumulative value S and the number m in n times of the controller scanning cycle are taken;
[0023] The obtained pressure variation intensity is calculated as: The value of n is set according to the control scanning cycle and the unit characteristics test; the ΔPn>0 cumulative value is taken to avoid misjudgment caused by unloading, pipeline leakage, and sudden fluctuation of user gas consumption.
