Description

[0002] In an electrostatic precipitator, when the temperature of the ash hopper inside the flue is too low, condensation will form on the ash hopper wall inside the electrostatic precipitator, causing dust to clump together and leading to clogging of the ash hopper.

However, because the target temperature is fixed, it cannot be dynamically adjusted in real time.

[0053] The following is combined with Figure 1 This application introduces a method for controlling the temperature of the ash hopper of an electrostatic precipitator, which can be achieved through steps S101-S103.

[0054] S101: Obtain the operating parameters of the flue gas duct of the electrostatic precipitator.

[0055] Specifically, it can interact with the power plant's distributed control system (DSC) to obtain real-time operating parameters of the flue inside the electrostatic precipitator.

[0056] Specifically, the operating parameters of the flue include the flue inlet temperature, the flue outlet temperature, the location information of the ash hopper, the relative distance between the ash hopper and the flue inlet, the dust concentration at the inlet of the electrostatic precipitator, the cross-sectional area of ​​the flue, the pressure difference between the flue gas at the inlet and outlet, and the relative humidity of the flue gas.

[0058] Specifically, based on the operating parameters of the flue, the flue gas temperature attenuation formula is substituted into the solution to obtain the flue gas temperature attenuation coefficient.

[0059] Specifically, the flue gas temperature at the location of the ash hopper is obtained based on the flue gas temperature decay formula, the flue gas temperature decay coefficient, and the relative distance between the ash hopper and the flue inlet. The dew point temperature at the location of the ash hopper is then calculated using the dew point temperature calculation formula.

[0061] Specifically, the dew point temperature at the location of the ash hopper is used as the basis for temperature control of the ash hopper. The heating device built into the ash hopper is closed or opened to control the temperature of the ash hopper.

[0062] The method for controlling the ash hopper temperature of an electrostatic precipitator provided in this application embodiment can calculate the dew point temperature at the location of the ash hopper by combining the operating parameters of the flue, and control the heating device based on the dew point temperature, thereby realizing real-time and dynamic adjustment of the ash hopper temperature and reducing the risk of dust condensation on the ash hopper wall.

[0063] The following is combined with Figure 2 This application introduces another method for controlling the ash hopper temperature of an electrostatic precipitator, which can be implemented through steps S201-S213.

[0064] The embodiments of this application are applied to, for example, Figure 3 The diagram shows a temperature control system for the ash hopper of an electrostatic precipitator. The system includes a communication module 301, a calculation module 302, and a control module 303.

[0065] S201: Obtain the operating parameters of the electrostatic precipitator.

[0066] Specifically, the communication module interacts with the power plant's DCS to obtain the operating parameters of the electrostatic precipitator, so that the temperature of the ash hopper of the electrostatic precipitator can be accurately adjusted according to the operating parameters.

[0067] Specifically, the obtained operating parameters of the electrostatic precipitator include the inlet temperature of the flue, the outlet temperature of the flue, the location information of the ash hopper, the relative distance between the ash hopper and the flue inlet, the dust concentration at the inlet of the electrostatic precipitator, the cross-sectional area of ​​the flue, the pressure difference between the flue gas at the inlet and outlet of the flue, and the relative humidity of the flue gas.

[0068] Specifically, the communication protocol used when the communication module communicates with the DCS is MODBUS TCP / RTU.

[0069] S202: Determine if the second relation array exists.

[0070] Specifically, determine whether the second relation array exists.

[0071] If a second relation array does not exist, proceed to step S203.

[0072] If a second relation array exists, proceed to step S213.

[0073] S203: Calculate the flue gas temperature attenuation coefficient.

[0074] Specifically, the flue gas temperature attenuation coefficient is calculated using the calculation module.

[0075] The formula for calculating the flue gas temperature attenuation coefficient in a flue is shown below:

[0076]

[0077] Where λ is the flue gas temperature attenuation coefficient inside the flue, ΔT is the temperature difference between the flue gas inlet and outlet, and T e T represents the flue gas temperature at the flue gas inlet. o denoted as F, where P is the flue gas temperature at the flue outlet, RH is the relative humidity of the flue gas, D is the dust concentration at the inlet of the electrostatic precipitator, S is the cross-sectional area of ​​the flue, and L is the relative distance from the flue inlet.

[0078] By substituting the real-time operating parameters of the electrostatic precipitator obtained in step S201 into the flue gas temperature attenuation coefficient formula, the flue gas temperature attenuation coefficient in the flue is obtained.

[0079] S204: Construct the first relation array.

[0080] Specifically, a first relational array is constructed based on the location information of the ash hopper and the relative distance between the ash hopper and the flue inlet.

[0081] Specifically, the calculation module performs array mapping and arrangement of the ash hoppers in each flue of the electrostatic precipitator according to their actual positions, measures and marks the actual distance between each ash hopper and the flue inlet, establishes the mapping relationship, and obtains the first relationship array.

[0082] The first relation array is shown below:

[0083]

[0084] Where n is an integer greater than or equal to 1, A n L is an array representing the location information of the ash hopper. n An array representing the relative distance between the ash hopper and the flue inlet.

[0085] S205: Calculate the flue gas temperature at the location of the ash hopper.

[0086] Specifically, by substituting the first relational array and the flue gas temperature attenuation coefficient into the flue gas temperature attenuation coefficient formula, the flue gas temperature at the location of the ash hopper can be obtained.

[0087] Specifically, the formula for the flue gas temperature attenuation coefficient is transformed as follows:

[0088]

[0089] Where T0 is the flue gas temperature at the location of the ash hopper, λ is the flue gas temperature attenuation coefficient in the flue, D is the dust concentration at the inlet of the electrostatic precipitator, S is the cross-sectional area of ​​the flue, L is the relative distance from the flue inlet, P is the gas pressure difference between the flue gas at the inlet and outlet of the flue, and RH is the relative humidity of the flue gas.

[0090] L nSubstituting L into the formula for the temperature decay coefficient of the converted flue gas, we can obtain the flue gas temperature at each ash hopper location.

[0091] S206: Calculate the dew point temperature at the location of the ash hopper.

[0092] Specifically, the dew point temperature at the location of the ash hopper is substituted into the dew point temperature calculation formula to obtain the dew point temperature at the location of the ash hopper.

[0093] The formula for calculating dew point temperature is as follows:

[0094] T d =T-((100-RH) / 5);

[0095] Among them, T d Here, T is the dew point temperature, T is the flue gas temperature, and RH is the flue gas relative humidity.

[0096] S207: Construct the second relation array.

[0097] Specifically, a second relation array is constructed based on the inlet temperature of the flue, the dew point temperature at the location of the ash hopper, and the first relation array.

[0098] Specifically, the inlet temperature of each flue and the dew point temperature at the location of the ash hopper are mapped to the first relation array to obtain the second relation array. The second relation array is shown below:

[0099]

[0100] Where n is an integer greater than or equal to 1, A n L is an array representing the location information of the ash hopper. n T is an array representing the relative distance between the ash hopper and the flue inlet. en T is an array representing the flue gas temperature at the flue gas inlet. dn This is an array representing the dew point temperature at the location of each ash hopper.

[0101] S208: Control the temperature of the ash hopper based on the dew point temperature.

[0102] Specifically, the temperature of the ash hopper is regulated based on the dew point temperature of the ash hopper location in the second relation array. The control module heats the ash hopper to the target temperature through a heating device. The target temperature is the sum of the dew point temperature of the ash hopper location and the preset dew point temperature deviation value.

[0103] If the temperature of the ash hopper is greater than or equal to the target temperature at this time, proceed to step S209.

[0104] If the temperature of the ash hopper is lower than the target temperature at this time, proceed to step S210.

[0105] It is understandable that the preset dew point temperature deviation value can be adjusted according to actual needs in practical applications, and this application does not limit this.

[0106] S209: Control the heating device to disconnect.

[0107] Specifically, the control module disconnects the heating device built into the ash hopper. Since the temperature of the ash hopper at this time is greater than or equal to the sum of the dew point temperature at the location of the ash hopper and the preset dew point temperature deviation, condensation on the ash hopper wall is prevented from causing dust agglomeration.

[0108] S210: Controls the closing of the heating device.

[0109] Specifically, the control module closes the heating device built into the ash hopper, thereby controlling the temperature of the ash hopper through the heating device.

[0110] Specifically, through steps S209-S210, the closing or opening of the heating device is controlled based on the dew point temperature obtained by dynamic calculation, thus avoiding power waste or condensation.

[0111] S211: Does the heating time exceed the preset time threshold?

[0112] Specifically, the heating duration of the heating device is obtained by monitoring the closing time of the heating device through the control module.

[0113] If the heating time does not exceed the preset time point, return to step S210.

[0114] If the heating time exceeds the preset time point, and the temperature of the ash hopper is less than or equal to the dew point temperature at the location of the ash hopper, then proceed to step S212.

[0115] It is understandable that the preset time point can be adjusted according to actual needs in practical applications, and this application does not limit this.

[0116] S212: Warning of abnormal heating.

[0117] Specifically, the communication module sends a warning message about heating device malfunctions to the electrostatic precipitator's control system. This step enables real-time dynamic identification of whether the ash hopper is heating abnormally.

[0118] S213: Determine the flue gas temperature at the flue inlet.

[0119] If the inlet temperature of the flue changes, and the change in inlet temperature is greater than the preset temperature threshold, then proceed to step S205.

[0120] If the inlet temperature of the flue changes, and the change in inlet temperature is less than or equal to the preset temperature threshold, then proceed to step S208.

[0121] It is understandable that the change in inlet temperature can be adjusted according to actual needs in practical applications, and this application does not limit this.

[0122] When the inlet temperature of the flue changes, the new dew point temperature can be dynamically calculated, thereby adjusting the target temperature of the ash hopper heating device.

[0123] The ash hopper temperature control method for an electrostatic precipitator provided in this application can automatically calculate the dew point temperature at the location of the ash hopper by combining the operating parameters of the flue gas duct. Based on the dew point temperature, the heating device is controlled, thereby achieving real-time and dynamic adjustment of the ash hopper temperature and reducing the risk of dust condensation on the ash hopper wall. Temperature control can identify any abnormal heating faults in the ash hopper, improving the accuracy and timeliness of heating anomaly identification. When the flue gas temperature changes, the temperature control target can be adjusted promptly to avoid energy waste and the recurrence of condensation.

The operating parameters include the flue gas inlet temperature, the flue gas outlet temperature, the ash hopper location information, and the relative distance between the ash hopper and the flue gas inlet.

[0130] The calculation module 302 is used to construct a first relation array based on the location information of the ash hopper and the relative distance between the ash hopper and the flue inlet.
