[0054] ​2. Step 2: Calculate the cumulative downtime of the submersible sewage pump. If the cumulative downtime of the submersible sewage pump exceeds the value T1 set by the staff of the hydropower station, it indicates that the regular sewage discharge time of the submersible pump has arrived, and the process jumps to Step 3 to start the sewage equipment flow control; otherwise, it continues to loop in this step. The interval T1 of the regular start of the submersible pump depends on the actual situation of the corresponding catch basin silt of the underground hydropower station and can be determined based on actual field tests combined with the management requirements of the power station, and can be set by the staff of the power station on the human-machine interaction interface. Preferably, the value is 168h.

[0055] 3. Step 3: Before starting the regular sewage control equipment of the catch basin of the underground hydropower station, it is necessary to ensure that the flushing valve, sewage valve, and submersible pump are ready; otherwise, it continues to loop in this step until all these devices are ready to meet the requirements of the regular sewage control of the catch basin of the underground hydropower station.

If the flushing valve is not in the fully open state, Step 5 outputs the open flushing valve operation. Step 6 monitors the time length of the open flushing valve operation. If the time length exceeds the maximum allowed time T2 for opening the flushing valve, it indicates that the flushing valve opening operation is abnormal, and the process jumps to Step 7, sets the flushing valve opening failure fault alarm, and then jumps to Step 30; otherwise, it jumps to Step 4 to continue the open flushing valve operation until the flushing valve is opened to the fully open position. If Step 4 is in the fully open state, the process jumps to Step 8. The maximum allowed time T2 for opening the flushing valve depends on the actual time of opening the valve by the electric operation mechanism of the flushing valve and can be determined based on the equipment manual and actual field tests, and can be set by the staff of the power station on the human-machine interaction interface. Preferably, the value is 30s.

[0057] 5. Step 8: Flush the accumulated silt at the outlet of the submersible pump to prevent the pump from being blocked by the sediment and failing to start. If the flushing time is up, the process jumps to Step 9; otherwise, it continues to loop in this step. The flushing time T3 of the submersible pump depends on the actual situation of the corresponding catch basin silt of the underground hydropower station and can be determined based on actual field tests combined with the management requirements of the power station, and can be set by the staff of the power station on the human-machine interaction interface. Preferably, the value is 5min.

[0058] 6. Closing flush valve operation, comprising steps 9, 10, 11, 12. First, check if the flush valve is in the fully closed state by step 9, if the flush valve is not in the fully closed state, output the closing flush valve operation by step 10. Monitor the time length of the closing flush valve operation by step 11, if the time length exceeds the maximum allowed time length T4 of closing the flush valve, it means that the flush valve closing operation is abnormal, jump to step 12, set the flush valve closing failure fault alarm by step 12, and then end the underground hydropower station sump regular blowdown control process; otherwise, jump to step 9, continue the closing flush valve operation until the flush valve is closed to the fully closed position. If step 9 is the flush valve in the fully closed state, jump to step 13. Wherein, the maximum allowed time length T4 of closing the flush valve depends on the actual time of closing the valve by the electric operation mechanism of the flush valve, which can be determined according to the equipment manual and the actual test on site, and can be set by the power station staff on the man-machine interface. Preferably, the value is 35s.

[0059] 7. Opening blowdown valve operation, comprising steps 13, 14, 15, 16.

Monitor the time length of the opening blowdown valve operation by step 15, if the time length exceeds the maximum allowed time length T5 of opening the blowdown valve, it means that the blowdown valve opening operation is abnormal, jump to step 16, set the blowdown valve opening failure fault alarm by step 16, and then jump to step 30; otherwise, jump to step 13, continue the opening blowdown valve operation until the blowdown valve is opened to the fully open position. If step 13 is the blowdown valve in the fully open state, jump to step 17. Wherein, the maximum allowed time length T5 of opening the blowdown valve depends on the actual time of opening the valve by the electric operation mechanism of the blowdown valve, which can be determined according to the equipment manual and the actual test on site, and can be set by the power station staff on the man-machine interface. Preferably, the value is 33s.

[0060] 8. Start-up of the submersible sewage pump operation, comprising steps 17, 18, 19, 20. First, it is detected by step 17 whether the submersible sewage pump is in a running state, if the submersible sewage pump is not in a running state, then the start-up of the submersible sewage pump operation is output by step 18. The time length consumed in the start-up of the submersible sewage pump is monitored by step 19, if the time length exceeds T6, then it is indicated that the start-up operation of the submersible sewage pump is abnormal, jumping to step 20, the submersible sewage pump start-up failure fault alarm is set by step 20, and then jumping to step 30; otherwise, jumping to step 17, continuing the start-up of the submersible sewage pump operation until the start-up of the submersible sewage pump is completed and in a normal running state. If step 17 is in a running state, then jumping to step 21. Wherein, the start-up monitoring time length T6 of the submersible sewage pump depends on the mechanical running characteristics of the submersible sewage pump and the start-up time length setting value of the soft start equipment, which can be determined according to theoretical calculation and field calibration test, and can be set by the power station staff on the man-machine interactive interface. Preferably, the value is 11s.

[0061] 9. Step 21: Start-up of the submersible sewage pump starts to discharge sewage for the corresponding collecting well of the underground hydropower station, if the running time of the submersible sewage pump reaches T7, then jumping to step 22; otherwise, always in this step cycle. Wherein, the submersible sewage pump running sewage discharge time T7 depends on the siltation amount of the collecting well and the sewage discharge speed of the submersible sewage pump and other factors, which can be determined according to the actual test on site and combined with the management requirements of the hydropower station, and can be set by the power station staff on the man-machine interactive interface. Preferably, the value is 30min.

[0062] 10. Stop of the submersible sewage pump operation, comprising steps 22, 23, 24, 25. First, it is detected by step 22 whether the submersible sewage pump is in a stop state, if the submersible sewage pump is not in a stop state, then the stop of the submersible sewage pump operation is output by step 23. The time length consumed in the stop of the submersible sewage pump is monitored by step 24, if the time length exceeds T8, then it is indicated that the stop operation of the submersible sewage pump is abnormal, jumping to step 25, the submersible sewage pump stop failure fault alarm is set by step 25, and then the underground hydropower station collecting well regular sewage discharge control flow is ended; otherwise, jumping to step 22, continuing the stop of the submersible sewage pump operation until the stop of the submersible sewage pump is completed and in a stop state. If step 22 is in a stop state, then jumping to step 26. Wherein, the start-up monitoring time length T8 of the submersible sewage pump depends on the mechanical running characteristics of the submersible sewage pump and the stop type of the soft start equipment and other parameters, which can be determined according to theoretical calculation and field calibration test, and can be set by the power station staff on the man-machine interactive interface. Preferably, the value is 7s.

[0063] 11. The closing blowdown valve operation includes steps 26, 27, 28, 29. First, step 26 detects whether the blowdown valve is in the fully closed state, if not, step 27 outputs the closing blowdown valve operation. Step 28 monitors the length of the closing blowdown valve operation, if the length exceeds the maximum allowed length T9 of the blowdown valve closing, it means that the blowdown valve closing operation is abnormal, step 29 is jumped to, the blowdown valve closing failure fault alarm is set, and then the underground water power station sump well regular blowdown control process is ended; otherwise, step 26 is jumped to, the closing blowdown valve operation is continued until the blowdown valve is closed to the fully closed position. If step 26 is the blowdown valve in the fully closed state, step 2 is jumped to, and a new control cycle is started. The maximum allowed length T9 of the blowdown valve closing depends on the actual time of the blowdown valve electric operation mechanism closing the valve, which can be determined according to the equipment manual and the actual test on site, and can be set by the power station staff on the man-machine interaction interface. Preferably, the value is 37s.

[0064] 12. The abnormal treatment process includes steps 30, 31, 32, 33. Any one of the three faults of the flushing valve opening failure, the blowdown valve opening failure, and the pump starting failure will jump to step 30, which will prohibit the flushing valve opening output, the blowdown valve opening output, and the starting of the submerged sewage pump output, and then forcibly close the flushing valve output, close the blowdown valve output, and stop the submerged sewage pump output. Then step 31 is jumped to, which monitors the length of the forced operation. If the length of the forced operation does not exceed T 10 , step 32 is jumped to; otherwise, step 33 is jumped to. Step 32 monitors whether the flushing valve is fully closed, the blowdown valve is fully closed, and the submerged sewage pump is stopped. If so, step 33 is jumped to; otherwise, step 31 is jumped to. Step 33 resets all forced operation outputs, including forcibly closing the flushing valve output, closing the blowdown valve output, and stopping the submerged sewage pump output. The forced operation monitoring length T 10 depends on the maximum value of the flushing valve closing time, the blowdown valve closing time, and the submerged sewage pump stopping process time, and needs to leave a certain margin, which can be determined according to the actual test on site, and can be set by the power station staff on the man-machine interaction interface. Preferably, the value is 41s.

[0065] 13. Steps 7 and 12 will cause the flushing valve readiness condition not to be met; steps 16 and 29 will cause the blowdown valve readiness condition not to be met; steps 20 and 25 will cause the submerged sewage pump readiness condition not to be met. The above faults need to be confirmed by the power station staff before they can be eliminated. After the faults are eliminated, the step 1 of the present application is manually rejumped to, and the submerged sewage system control process initialization operation is reperformed.

[0066] 1. It should be noted that: T1 to T10 The time parameter can be set through the man-machine interaction device, and the fixed value visual management requirement of the hydropower station is realized.

Step 29: A failure alarm is triggered when the sewage valve fails to close, and the regular sewage discharge control process of the underground hydropower station water collection well is terminated; Otherwise, jump to step 26 and continue closing the drain valve until the drain valve is closed to the fully closed position; If the drain valve is in the fully closed state in step 26, jump to step 2 and restart the next round of control cycle; Also includes: Step 30: If any of the three faults, namely, the flush valve failure to open, the drain valve failure to open, and the pump failure to start, occurs, the process will jump to step 30. In step 30, the flush valve output, the drain valve output, and the submersible sewage pump output will be prohibited from being opened, and then the flush valve output, the drain valve output, and the submersible sewage pump output will be forcibly closed. Then, the process will jump to step 31. Step 31: Monitor the forced operation duration. If the forced operation duration does not exceed T 10 , then jump to step 32; otherwise jump to step 33; Step 32: Monitor whether the flush valve is fully closed, the drain valve is fully closed, and the submersible sewage pump is stopped. If so, jump to step 33; otherwise, jump to step 31; Step 33: Reset all forced operation outputs, including forced closing of flush valve output, closing of drain valve output, and stopping of submersible sewage pump output.
