TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of fire pump, in particular to a fire water supply system and method based on double squirrel cage motor. BACKGROUND
[0002] Fire pump requires no failure to stop the pump during fire operation, and must consider automatic input without operation. However, the inlet and outlet valves of the water pump are in full open state in principle, and the water consumption of the terminal fire equipment (such as fire hydrant) is often difficult to effectively constrain. In addition, the first started pump group of the multi-pump parallel water supply system is most likely to bear the entire load in a short time, but the pump group for fire fighting is not allowed to overload and stop or cavitate (if the first pump group is overloaded and stopped, the subsequent water consumption is larger and more likely to cause another standby unit to overload or cavitate, resulting in system collapse) to cause the water supply system to collapse.
[0003] If a conventional double squirrel cage motor or high slip motor is used to drive the fire pump in the prior art, the following problems still exist:
[0004] A. The design of ordinary double squirrel cage motor: the conductor section of the rotor outer cage (upper cage) is small, only responsible for providing larger starting torque of the motor (can meet the full load starting of fire pump); the conductor section of the inner cage (lower cage) is larger, which produces the main running torque and presents a relatively hard mechanical external characteristic (suitable for stable working conditions, but it is easy to cause overload for fire pump).
[0005] B. The design of ordinary deep slot motor is basically to achieve the purpose of (A) above.
[0006] C. The structure of ordinary high slip motor is the same as that of ordinary asynchronous motor, except that the rotor conductor is made of high resistivity alloy (can meet the full load starting of fire pump, but the soft mechanical characteristic cannot make the fire pump work in the high efficiency area and has the ability of 1.5 times flow).
[0007] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a scheme to improve the structure of double squirrel cage motor to improve the water supply control of fire water supply system. SUMMARY

[0046] The preferred embodiments of the present application are described below in combination with the accompanying drawings, and it should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present application, and do not limit the present application.
[0047] The embodiment of the present application provides a fire-fighting water supply system based on a double squirrel cage motor, please refer to Figure 1 The fire-fighting water supply system based on the double squirrel cage motor comprises:
[0048] a double squirrel cage motor, a centrifugal pump and a water use control module;
[0049] The double squirrel cage motor uses the outer squirrel cage of the rotor to ensure the starting torque of the fire-fighting pump under full load and limit the starting current; the double squirrel cage motor uses the inner squirrel cage of the rotor to make the centrifugal pump operate in the high efficiency area at the rated operating point, and when the centrifugal pump operates at an excessive flow rate, the inner squirrel cage is used to limit the torque of the motor to make the rotating speed of the fire-fighting pump set drop rapidly, effectively preventing the centrifugal pump from overloading.
[0050] The working principle of the technical scheme is as follows: the scheme adopted by the embodiment is a double squirrel cage motor, a centrifugal pump and a water control module; the outer squirrel cage of the rotor of the double squirrel cage motor is used to ensure the starting torque of the fire pump under full load and limit the starting current; the inner squirrel cage of the rotor of the double squirrel cage motor enables the centrifugal pump to operate in the high efficiency zone at the rated operating point, and when the centrifugal pump operates at an excess flow rate, the maximum torque Tm2 of the inner squirrel cage is used to limit the torque of the motor to rapidly drop the rotating speed of the fire pump set, effectively preventing the centrifugal pump from being overloaded.
[0051] The beneficial effects of the technical scheme are as follows: the scheme provided by the embodiment sets a double squirrel cage motor, the rotor of the double squirrel cage motor includes an inner squirrel cage (the rated power capacity of the inner squirrel cage is about 75% of the maximum shaft power of the motor) to ensure the rotating speed of the centrifugal fire pump at the rated flow rate and head, so that the water pump can operate in the high efficiency zone. The double squirrel cage motor also includes an outer squirrel cage cooperating with the inner squirrel cage, the outer squirrel cage ensures the starting torque of the motor and limits the starting current to make the motor have a high slip characteristic. When the water consumption of the fire pump exceeds the designed rated flow rate, the maximum torque Tm2 of the inner squirrel cage is used to limit the torque of the motor to rapidly drop the rotating speed of the fire pump set, i.e. the rotating speed n of the motor will rapidly drop, which can effectively prevent the centrifugal pump from being overloaded.
[0052] Firstly, the scheme can meet the rated flow rate and rated head required by the specification, the inner squirrel cage of the rotor can enable the centrifugal pump to operate in the high efficiency zone at the rated operating point, and when the flow rate reaches 1.5 times, the maximum torque Tm1 of the outer squirrel cage and the maximum torque Tm2 of the inner squirrel cage jointly provide the torque of the fire pump at 1.5 times the rated flow rate and the specified head.
[0053] In another embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 The rotor of the double squirrel cage motor includes an outer squirrel cage and an inner squirrel cage; the outer squirrel cage includes first rotor bars, and the inner squirrel cage includes second rotor bars; the cross section of the first rotor bars is a long and narrow cross section extending towards the inner squirrel cage, the cross section of the second rotor bars is a circular or elliptical cross section, and the cross sectional area of the first rotor bars is greater than that of the second rotor bars.
[0054] The current through the second rotor bars is less than or equal to a set first current threshold value, and the maximum torque Tm2 of the double squirrel cage motor is less than or equal to a set first torque threshold value when the inner squirrel cage operates.
[0055] The working principle of the technical solution is as follows: the scheme adopted in the embodiment is an inner and outer squirrel cage structure of a double squirrel cage motor rotor, wherein the outer rotor squirrel cage is designed to be narrow and deep, and the conductor is a high-resistance copper alloy, which takes into account high starting torque and high slip rate operation throughout the process. The conductor cross section of the inner rotor squirrel cage is relatively small, so that the current flowing through the inner squirrel cage conductor is relatively small, resulting in a relatively small maximum torque Tm2 value of the inner squirrel cage.
[0056] Specifically, the shape of the outer rotor squirrel cage is similar to that of a deep slot asynchronous motor, and the rotor bar cross section (see Figure 2 ), but the bar is made of a high-resistance copper alloy material, so it has excellent starting performance. After the motor completes the starting process and the speed increases, it presents a super-high slip mechanical characteristic curve, as shown in Figure 4 , the outer squirrel cage starts to operate, the motor speed gradually increases, and the torque increases, and the motor slip rate significantly increases.
[0057] The structure of the inner rotor squirrel cage is that the conductor cross section of the inner squirrel cage is designed to be small (see Figure 2 ), and the maximum power capacity is 70-80% of the maximum shaft power of the double squirrel cage motor, preferably about 75%. The speed of the centrifugal fire pump at the rated operating point of flow and head can make the pump operate in the high efficiency area. When the water consumption of the fire pump exceeds the designed rated flow point, the shaft power of the centrifugal pump exceeds 75% of the maximum power of the motor, and the motor reaches the maximum torque value Tm2 when it reaches 75% of the maximum power, as shown in Figure 4 , the motor speed n drops rapidly.
[0058] Therefore, the improved double squirrel cage motor provided in the embodiment is different from the traditional double squirrel cage motor. The improved double squirrel cage motor has a large cross-sectional area outer squirrel cage and a small cross-sectional area inner squirrel cage. The large cross-sectional area outer squirrel cage has a high slip rate, and its speed drop will increase with the increase of the motor torque, so it has a high starting torque and a soft mechanical characteristic. In addition, the small cross-sectional area inner squirrel cage has a relatively small current flowing through the inner squirrel cage conductor after the motor starts, resulting in a relatively small maximum torque value Tm2 of the motor, but it has a hard mechanical characteristic in the rated power range. The improved double squirrel cage motor based on the improved outer squirrel cage structure and inner squirrel cage structure has excellent starting performance, and ensures the speed of the centrifugal fire pump at the rated operating point of flow and head, so that the pump operates in the high efficiency area. In addition, the torque limitation effectively prevents the fire pump from overloading during the super-flow operation.
[0059] Please refer to Figure 3 , the left vertical coordinate is the motor speed n, the lower side is the head H, the upper side of the right vertical coordinate is the motor slip rate, the lower side is the motor shaft power P, and the horizontal coordinate is the flow Q. FromFigure 3 It can be seen that the embodiment provides an improvement on the conventional double squirrel cage motor, so that the improved double squirrel cage motor has excellent starting performance and realizes the super high slip characteristic when the flow rate exceeds the rated flow rate, so that the motor speed and the flow rate of the water pump will quickly drop, and the water pump will not cause cavitation problems under the condition of low speed and low flow rate.
[0060] In another embodiment, the maximum power capacity of the inner squirrel cage is set, and the maximum power capacity is 70-80% of the maximum shaft power of the double squirrel cage motor.
[0061] The inner squirrel cage ensures the speed of the centrifugal pump at the rated flow rate and head, so that the centrifugal pump operates in the high efficiency region; the rated working condition point includes the rated flow rate and the rated head; the maximum torque Tm1 of the outer squirrel cage and the maximum torque Tm2 of the inner squirrel cage jointly provide the torque of the fire pump when the rated flow rate is 1.5 times and the specified head is reached.
[0062] The working principle of the above technical solution is that the maximum power capacity of the inner squirrel cage is set, and the maximum power capacity is 70-80% of the maximum shaft power of the double squirrel cage motor; the inner squirrel cage ensures the speed of the centrifugal pump at the rated flow rate and head, so that the centrifugal pump operates in the high efficiency region; the rated working condition point includes the rated flow rate and the rated head; the maximum torque Tm1 of the outer squirrel cage and the maximum torque Tm2 of the inner squirrel cage jointly provide the torque of the fire pump when the rated flow rate is 1.5 times and the specified head is reached. When the water consumption of the centrifugal pump exceeds the set rated flow rate, and the shaft power of the double squirrel cage motor is equal to the maximum power capacity, the operating torque of the double squirrel cage motor is Tm 1+ Tm2, which is the maximum torque of the double squirrel cage motor, and when the shaft power of the double squirrel cage motor is greater than the maximum power capacity, the speed drop rate of the double squirrel cage motor is greater than or equal to the set speed threshold.
[0063] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are that the maximum power capacity of the motor rotor inner squirrel cage is set by the scheme provided in the embodiment, and the maximum power capacity is 70-80% of the maximum shaft power of the double squirrel cage motor; the inner squirrel cage ensures the speed of the centrifugal pump at the rated flow rate and head, so that the centrifugal pump operates in the high efficiency region; the rated working condition point includes the rated flow rate and the rated head; the maximum torque Tm1 of the outer squirrel cage and the maximum torque Tm2 of the inner squirrel cage jointly provide the torque of the fire pump when the rated flow rate is 1.5 times and the specified head is reached. When the water consumption of the centrifugal pump exceeds the set rated flow rate, and the shaft power of the double squirrel cage motor is equal to the maximum power capacity, the operating torque of the double squirrel cage motor is Tm 1+Tm2, which is the maximum torque of the double squirrel cage motor, when the shaft power of the double squirrel cage motor is greater than the maximum power capacity, the speed of the double squirrel cage motor decreases at a rate greater than or equal to the set rate threshold.
[0064] In another embodiment, the water control module comprises:
[0065] a first relationship acquisition unit configured to acquire a first relationship between the speed of the double squirrel cage motor and the flow rate of the centrifugal pump;
[0066] a second relationship acquisition unit configured to acquire a second relationship between the speed of the double squirrel cage motor and the head of the centrifugal pump;
[0067] a third relationship acquisition unit configured to acquire a third relationship between the speed of the double squirrel cage motor and the shaft power of the double squirrel cage motor;
[0068] a determination unit configured to determine a relevant parameter based on the first relationship, the second relationship, and the third relationship.
[0069] The working principle of the above technical solution is as follows: the scheme adopted in the embodiment is that the water control module comprises: a first relationship acquisition unit configured to acquire a first relationship between the speed of the double squirrel cage motor and the flow rate of the centrifugal pump; a second relationship acquisition unit configured to acquire a second relationship between the speed of the double squirrel cage motor and the head of the centrifugal pump; a third relationship acquisition unit configured to acquire a third relationship between the speed of the double squirrel cage motor and the shaft power of the double squirrel cage motor; and a determination unit configured to determine a relevant parameter based on the first relationship, the second relationship, and the third relationship.
[0070] The relationship formula among the flow rate, the head, the shaft power, and the speed of the centrifugal pump is:
[0071]
[0072]
[0073]
[0074] wherein Q, H, P, and n respectively represent the flow rate, the head, the shaft power, and the speed of the water pump;
[0075] The change of the flow rate Q of the water pump is in a proportional relationship with the change of the speed n;
[0076] The change of the head H of the water pump is in a proportional relationship with the square of the speed n;
[0077] The shaft power P of the water pump is in a proportional relationship with the cube of the speed n;
[0078] Therefore, the shaft power P of the water pump can be greatly changed by changing the speed n.
[0079] In another embodiment, the first rotor bar is a high-resistivity copper alloy material.
[0080] In another embodiment, the double squirrel cage motor, at the time of starting, due to the first rotor bar of the outer squirrel cage being in the position of the motor rotor close to the outer circle, the structure and the material adopted, Tm1 presents high slip mechanical characteristics, and a lower starting current and a higher starting torque; the second rotor bar of the inner squirrel cage does not work in the process of starting due to being in the position of the motor rotor close to the inner circle.
[0081] The working principle of the above technical solution is that the scheme adopted in the embodiment is that the double squirrel cage motor, at the time of starting, due to the first rotor bar of the outer squirrel cage being in the position of the motor rotor close to the outer circle, the structure and the material adopted, Tm1 presents high slip mechanical characteristics, and a lower starting current and a higher starting torque; the second rotor bar of the inner squirrel cage does not work in the process of starting due to being in the position of the motor rotor close to the inner circle.

After the motor runs at normal speed, Tm1 continues to drop, exhibiting a high slip mechanical characteristic throughout. After the dual-cage motor speeds up, the maximum torque Tm2 of the inner cage makes the motor exhibit a stiffer mechanical characteristic. During normal operation, the dual-cage motor mainly uses the Tm2 of the inner cage to keep the centrifugal pump running in the high-efficiency zone at the rated operating point.

When the current through the second rotor bar is less than or equal to the set current threshold, the maximum torque value of the double squirrel cage motor is less than or equal to the set torque threshold when the inner squirrel cage is running. In S300, during normal operation, the dual-cage motor ensures that the centrifugal pump operates in its high-efficiency zone at the rated operating point through the Tm2 of the inner cage of the rotor, including: S302, Set the maximum power capacity of the inner squirrel cage, wherein the maximum power capacity is 70-80% of the maximum shaft power of the dual squirrel cage motor; S303, the mechanical characteristics of Tm2 ensure the speed of the centrifugal pump at the rated flow and head, so that the centrifugal pump operates in the high-efficiency range; the rated operating point includes the rated flow and rated head; S304, when the water consumption of the centrifugal pump exceeds the set rated flow, Tm2 is limited, and the motor's combined maximum torque from Tm1+Tm2 satisfies 1.5 times the flow and its specified head; at this time, the shaft power of the double squirrel-cage motor is equal to the maximum power capacity, and the operating torque of the double squirrel-cage motor is the maximum torque.
