Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of compressed air energy storage and combined cycle units, and particularly relates to a system and operation method for coupled compressed air energy storage in a combined cycle unit. Background Technology

[0002] Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is an energy storage technology developed based on gas turbine technology. It uses electrical energy to compress air to high pressure and stores it in sealed containers such as underground salt caverns, underground mines, or high-pressure vessels. When generating electricity, the stored compressed air is released to drive a turbine. This technology is currently the only proven energy storage technology capable of large-scale energy storage, comparable to pumped hydro systems.

[0003] Based on their operating principles, compressed air energy storage systems are divided into two categories: afterburning and non-afterburning. Currently, all commercially operational compressed air energy storage systems internationally employ afterburning: during energy storage, a motor drives a compressor to compress air to high pressure and store it in a storage chamber; during energy release, the high-pressure air in the storage chamber enters a gas turbine, mixes and burns with fuel in the combustion chamber, driving the gas turbine to perform work, which in turn drives a generator to output electrical energy, thus completing the power generation process. However, afterburning compressed air energy storage not only wastes the heat of air compression during the energy storage phase but also requires fuel afterburning to achieve the system's cyclical operation, resulting in low energy storage efficiency and environmental problems. Furthermore, its dependence on fuels such as natural gas limits the system's widespread application.

[0004] Domestically, the compressed air energy storage industry is currently in the stage of gradually breaking through the key technologies of 1-100MW systems, and commercial projects of over 100MW are being accelerated. The compressed air energy storage projects already in operation are all non-fuel-based compressed air energy storage units, mainly including: the 1.5MW supercritical compressed air energy storage demonstration project in Langfang, Hebei; the 500kW compressed air energy storage demonstration project in Wuhu, Anhui; the 10MW compressed air energy storage verification platform in Bijie, Guizhou; the 10MW compressed air energy storage peak-shaving power station project in Feicheng, Shandong; the 500kW liquid air energy storage demonstration project in Tongli, Jiangsu (State Grid); the 60MW salt cavern compressed air energy storage demonstration project in Jintan, China Salt; and the 100MW advanced compressed air energy storage demonstration project in Zhangjiakou, etc.

[0005] Existing non-combustion compressed air energy storage units have the following problems during actual operation:

[0006] (1) Because the heat stored in the compressed air energy storage process heats the compressed air during the power generation process, the temperature of the compressed air entering the air turbine is low, which leads to low efficiency of the power generation process.

[0007] (2) Because room temperature water or low temperature heat transfer oil after heat exchange is used to cool the high temperature air at the compressor outlet during compressed air energy storage, it is easy to cause a mismatch between the heat storage and heat exchange in the energy storage cycle and the heat exchange required for the compression and power generation processes. This results in a serious drop in the temperature of the compressed air during the power generation process or a significant reduction in the efficiency and energy storage capacity during the energy storage process. This reflects that the existing heat storage and heat exchange design schemes severely limit the operational flexibility and efficiency stability of compressed air energy storage units. For example, if the grid cannot schedule the charging, resting, and power generation times according to the rated schedule, after multiple failures to operate according to the prescribed cycle, there will be insufficient refrigerant or an increase in temperature in the heat storage tank before the compression process begins. This causes a mismatch between the heat stored in the heat storage medium and the cooling heat required by the compressor in the energy storage process, resulting in the compression process failing to operate according to the design parameters.

[0008] (3) Existing compressed air energy storage power stations all use high-voltage electricity from the grid to power the compressor motor after it is transformed by a transformer. As a result, the system efficiency loss always exists in the transformer loss during the energy storage process.

[0009] Currently, there are many shortcomings in the design and operation of combined cycle generator units, mainly including: (1) The flue gas temperature of the waste heat boiler of conventional combined cycle generator units is about 90℃~110℃. The high flue gas temperature directly causes the loss of the overall thermal efficiency of the combined cycle unit; (2) Most of the combined cycle units currently built in China use cooling towers as the heat dissipation equipment for the cold end of the steam turbine. During operation, the cooling towers need to release a large amount of water into the atmosphere, which results in the waste of water resources; (3) Leakage is inevitable in the steam and water thermal cycle process, which leads to the need for the power plant to continuously prepare demineralized water to make up for the condenser; (4) Under the deep peak shaving operation condition, the economic efficiency of the combined cycle unit is significantly reduced. Studies have shown that the combined cycle power generation efficiency at 30% load is 15 to 20 percentage points lower than that at 100% rated load. Summary of the Invention

[0010] The purpose of this invention is to provide a system and operating method for coupled compressed air energy storage in a combined cycle unit. This system and method can significantly increase the inlet temperature of the air turbine during the power generation process of the compressed air energy storage power station, thereby improving cycle efficiency. It can also effectively improve the operational flexibility and efficiency of the compressed air energy storage unit, ensuring that both energy storage and power generation processes operate according to design parameters. The system can reduce losses during power transmission, thereby improving overall efficiency. Furthermore, by recovering condensate from the air, the system's makeup water rate is significantly reduced, and by increasing the inlet condensate temperature of the waste heat boiler, the power generation efficiency of the combined cycle unit is improved.

[0011] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention employs the following technical solution:

[0015] Compressed air energy storage systems are used to store compressed air under conditions of low grid load demand and deep peak shaving operation of generator units. A portion of the heat generated during air compression is transferred to the condensate of the combined cycle generator unit, improving overall system efficiency. The condensate generated after air compression and cooling serves as makeup water for the condenser and cooling tower of the combined cycle generator unit. When grid load demand is high, it provides high-pressure, low-temperature compressed air for power generation to the flue gas-air heat exchanger and air turbine power generation system.

[0032] An operation method for a combined cycle unit coupled with compressed air energy storage system, comprising:

[0033] (1) When the power grid load demand is low and deep peak regulation is in place, the system is in energy storage state, starts the flue gas waste heat utilization heat pump unit and compressed air energy storage system, and shuts down the flue gas-air heat exchanger and air turbine power generation system.

[0034] Open the following valves: gas turbine exhaust to waste heat boiler inlet flue gas damper; compressor to compressed air storage chamber inlet valve; heat pump unit to compressor interstage cooler G water supply valve group; compressor interstage low-temperature cooler G to heat pump unit return water valve group; condensate to compressor interstage high-temperature cooler F water supply valve; compressor interstage high-temperature cooler F outlet water to waste heat boiler condensate system valve group; cooling tower circulating water supply to heat pump unit A medium-temperature water supply valve; heat pump unit A medium-temperature water outlet to cooling tower return water valve; waste heat boiler flue gas waste heat recovery heat exchanger B inlet valve; waste heat boiler flue gas waste heat recovery heat exchanger B outlet valve; pressure...

[0035] The waste heat recovery circulation pump of the waste heat boiler flue gas transports low-temperature waste heat utilization circulating water to the waste heat recovery heat exchanger of the waste heat boiler flue gas. After absorbing heat and increasing temperature in the waste heat recovery heat exchanger of the waste heat boiler flue gas, the low-temperature waste heat utilization circulating water returns to the heat pump unit to drive the heat pump unit to work.

[0036] Air enters the low-pressure compressor and is compressed, increasing its pressure and temperature to 200℃~350℃. After passing through the compressor stage high-temperature cooler and compressor stage low-temperature cooler, the air is cooled to 25℃~40℃ and enters the high-pressure compressor. After entering the high-pressure compressor, the air is compressed, increasing its pressure and temperature to ~120℃. After passing through the high-pressure compressor outlet high-temperature cooler and high-pressure compressor outlet low-temperature cooler, the air is cooled to 25℃~40℃ and enters the compressed air storage device.

[0037] A portion of the low-temperature circulating water from the turbine generator set's cooling tower enters the heat pump unit to remove the heat pump unit's medium-temperature waste heat, and then returns to the cooling tower for cooling.

[0038] Condensate from the outlet pipe of the steam turbine generator set condensate pump is pressurized by the circulating water pump of the compressor interstage high temperature cooler and then enters the high-pressure compressor outlet high temperature cooler and the compressor interstage high temperature cooler through a three-way valve. After absorbing the heat of the compressed air, it returns to the condensate header.

[0039] The low-temperature chilled water from the heat pump unit is pressurized by the cooling circulation pump of the compressor interstage cryogenic cooler after passing through the heat pump unit. It then enters the high-pressure compressor outlet cryogenic cooler and the compressor interstage cryogenic cooler through a three-way valve.

If the usage is sufficient for condenser makeup water, it enters the cooling tower as cooling tower makeup water. If the cooling tower makeup water is still insufficient to completely use the condensate from the cooler condensate tank, it is stored in a water storage tank as a backup water source for other purposes.

[0041] (2) When the grid load demand is high and the system is generating power, start the flue gas-air heat exchanger and air turbine power generation system, and shut down the compressed air energy storage system and flue gas waste heat utilization heat pump unit.

[0043] Part of the flue gas from the gas turbine generator set enters the flue gas / air low-temperature heat exchanger, the flue gas / air high-temperature heat exchanger, and the flue gas / air reheater. After heating the compressed air, it is cooled and returned to the waste heat boiler flue. After merging with the waste heat boiler flue gas, it is discharged into the atmosphere.

[0044] High-pressure, low-temperature compressed air from the compressed air storage device of the compressed air energy storage system is first heated by the flue gas / air low-temperature heat exchanger and the flue gas / air high-temperature heat exchanger, and its temperature rises to 500℃~540℃. It then enters the high-pressure air turbine to expand and do work, and its pressure and temperature decrease. The exhaust from the high-pressure air turbine enters the flue gas / air reheater to absorb heat from the flue gas, and its temperature rises to 500℃~540℃. It then enters the low-pressure air turbine to expand and do work, and its temperature drops to 35℃~45℃ before being discharged into the atmosphere.

[0045] (3) When the power grid has no requirements for deep peak shaving and full output, the system is in a static state, and the flue gas-air heat exchanger, air turbine power generation system, compressed air energy storage system and flue gas waste heat utilization heat pump unit are shut down; the system is in a normal combined cycle power generation state.

[0046] Open the flue gas damper from the gas turbine exhaust to the waste heat boiler inlet and the flue gas damper from the gas turbine exhaust to the flue gas / air heat exchanger system; close the flue gas damper from the gas turbine exhaust to the flue gas / air heat exchanger system, the valve group from the compressed air storage device H to the flue gas / air heat exchanger system, the inlet valve from the compressor to the compressed air storage chamber, the cooling tower circulating water supply valve to the medium-temperature water supply valve of the heat pump unit A, the medium-temperature water outlet valve from the heat pump unit A to the cooling tower return water valve, the inlet valve of the waste heat boiler flue gas waste heat recovery heat exchanger B, and the outlet valve of the waste heat boiler flue gas waste heat recovery heat exchanger B; shut down the high-pressure air turbine, low-pressure air turbine, low-pressure compressor, compressor drive motor, heat pump unit, compressor interstage high-temperature cooler circulating water pump, waste heat boiler flue gas waste heat recovery circulating pump, and heat pump unit to compressor interstage low-temperature cooler cooling circulating pump.

[0047] The present invention has at least the following beneficial technical effects:

[0048] (1) Under different operating conditions, the condensate in the compressed air is recycled and reused to replace part of the demineralized water system for the combined cycle unit condenser and cooling tower, thus saving system water resources.

[0049] (2) By coupling the combined cycle unit with the compressed air energy storage system, the overall power generation capacity of the system under peak grid conditions can be significantly increased.

[0050] (3) Under the deep peak shaving condition of the unit, the power generation of the combined cycle unit is significantly increased under the same power supply load, thereby significantly improving the operating efficiency of the combined cycle unit;

[0051] (4) Using waste heat boiler flue gas to heat compressed air can significantly increase the inlet main air temperature of air turbine generator set, thereby significantly improving the power generation cycle efficiency of air turbine generator set.

[0052] (5) Since the condensate of the combined cycle unit and the chilled water of the heat pump unit are used to cool the air at the compressor outlet, and the exhaust gas of the gas turbine is used to heat the compressed air to supply the air turbine, the operation flexibility of the compressed air energy storage system can be effectively guaranteed, and the problems of compressed air energy storage and power generation caused by poor grid dispatch and poor matching degree of heat storage device are eliminated.

[0053] (6) The combined cycle unit power supply system is used to supply power to the compressor of the compressed air energy storage system, thus reducing the power grid transmission loss and eliminating the compressor power supply transformer loss, thereby improving the net efficiency of the compressed air energy storage system.

[0054] (7) When the compressed air energy storage system is in energy storage mode, it can increase the temperature of the condensate of the waste heat boiler, thereby improving the efficiency of the combined cycle unit. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0059] The following detailed description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples, provides a further detailed explanation of a combined cycle unit coupled with compressed air energy storage system and its operation method according to the present invention.

[0060] Note 1: The combined cycle generator unit coupled with compressed air energy storage system described in this invention consists of a combined cycle generator unit, a flue gas waste heat utilization heat pump unit, and a compressed air energy storage system. The functions of each part are as follows:

[0061] Combined cycle generator sets are used to provide a driving heat source for flue gas waste heat utilization heat pump units, a driving power source for the compressors of compressed air energy storage systems, and a medium-temperature circulating cooling water source for flue gas waste heat utilization heat pump units, as well as a cooling water source for the high-temperature coolers between compressor stages and the high-temperature coolers at the outlet of high-pressure compressors, when grid load demand is low. When grid load demand is high, they provide high-temperature heated flue gas for flue gas-air heat exchanger air turbine power generation systems.

[0062] The flue gas waste heat utilization heat pump unit is used to absorb the waste heat from the combined cycle unit boiler as a driving heat source, and uses the medium-temperature circulating cooling water provided by the combined cycle generator unit to generate low-temperature chilled water, which provides cooling water for the compressor interstage cryogenic cooler and the high-pressure compressor outlet cryogenic cooler.

[0063] Compressed air energy storage systems are used to store compressed air when the grid load demand is low and the unit is operating under deep peak shaving conditions. A portion of the heat generated during air compression is transferred to the condensate of the combined cycle generator unit, improving the overall system efficiency. The condensate generated after air compression and cooling is used as makeup water for the condenser and cooling tower of the combined cycle generator unit. When the grid load demand is high, it provides high-pressure, low-temperature compressed air for power generation to the flue gas-air heat exchanger and air turbine power generation system.

[0064] The flue gas-air heat exchanger and air turbine power generation system heats the high-pressure compressed air provided by the compressed air energy storage system and the low-temperature reheated compressed air discharged from the high-pressure air turbine when the grid load demand is high. The compressed air expands in the air turbine to do work and output electrical energy.

[0066] Gas turbine generator sets can use either natural gas or oil as fuel to provide heating flue gas for waste heat boiler systems and to provide heating flue gas for flue gas-air heat exchangers and air turbine power generation systems when grid load demand is high.

[0067] The waste heat boiler system utilizes high-temperature flue gas from the gas turbine generator set to heat low-temperature steam and water working fluids such as condensate and low-temperature reheat steam from the steam turbine generator set, providing high-temperature and high-pressure steam to the steam turbine generator set and discharging the flue gas into the atmosphere after reducing its temperature. The waste heat boiler system also heats the circulating water in the waste heat recovery heat exchanger of the waste heat boiler flue gas to provide a driving heat source for the waste heat utilization heat pump unit.

[0068] The steam turbine generator set generates electricity using high-temperature, high-pressure steam provided by the waste heat boiler, and provides the waste heat boiler with low-temperature steam and water working fluids such as condensate and low-temperature reheat steam; the steam turbine generator set provides medium-temperature circulating cooling water for the flue gas waste heat utilization heat pump unit; the steam turbine generator set provides cooling water for the high-temperature cooler between compressor stages and the high-temperature cooler at the outlet of the high-pressure compressor in the compressed air energy storage system.

[0099] (3) When the power grid does not require deep peak shaving or full output, the system needs to be in a static state, and the flue gas-air heat exchanger, air turbine power generation system, compressed air energy storage system, and flue gas waste heat utilization heat pump unit should be shut down. The system should be in a normal combined cycle power generation state.

[0100] The main operations include: opening the gas turbine exhaust to the waste heat boiler inlet flue gas damper 2 and the gas turbine exhaust to the flue gas / air heat exchanger system flue gas damper 1; closing the gas turbine exhaust to the flue gas / air heat exchanger system flue gas damper 1, the compressed air storage device H to the flue gas / air heat exchanger system valve group 3, the compressor to the compressed air storage chamber inlet valve 4, the cooling tower circulating water supply to the heat pump unit A medium-temperature water supply valve 9, the heat pump unit A medium-temperature water outlet to the cooling tower return water valve 10, the waste heat boiler flue gas waste heat recovery heat exchanger B inlet valve 11, and the waste heat boiler flue gas waste heat recovery heat exchanger B outlet valve 12.

[0101] Example illustration:

[0102] For a Class F combined cycle unit with a single-shaft configuration, the present invention is used to modify the unit by adding a waste heat recovery heat pump unit, a compressed air energy storage system, a flue gas-air heat exchanger, and an air turbine power generation system. The unit's operating parameters are shown in Table 1.

[0103] As can be seen from Table 1:

[0104] (1) Under different operating conditions, the condensate in the compressed air is recycled and reused, replacing the demineralized water system to make up 2.1 to 2.5 t / h of water for the condenser of the combined cycle unit;

[0105] (2) The combined cycle unit alone has a maximum output of 467MW. By adding a compressed air energy storage system, the overall power generation of the system increases to 495.2MW. The minimum power supply under deep peak shaving conditions is reduced by 49.74MW. Under the same power supply, the gas turbine load is significantly increased, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the combined cycle unit.

[0106] (3) The main air temperature of the air turbine generator set can reach 535℃ and the reheat air temperature can reach 532℃, which significantly improves the power generation cycle efficiency.

[0107] (4) Since the condensate of the combined cycle unit and the chilled water of the heat pump unit are used to cool the air at the compressor outlet, and the exhaust gas of the gas turbine is used to heat the compressed air to supply the air turbine, the operation flexibility of the compressed air energy storage system can be effectively guaranteed, and the problems of compressed air energy storage and power generation caused by poor grid dispatch and poor matching of heat storage devices are eliminated.

[0108] (5) The combined cycle unit plant power system is used to supply power to the compressor of the compressed air energy storage system, thus reducing the power grid transmission loss and eliminating the compressor power supply transformer loss, thereby improving the net efficiency of the compressed air energy storage system.

[0109] (6) When the compressed air energy storage system is in energy storage mode, it can increase the temperature of the condensate of the waste heat boiler, thereby improving the efficiency of the combined cycle unit.
