TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of supercritical carbon dioxide cycle power generation, and relates to a water injection desuperheating system of a supercritical carbon dioxide cycle power generating unit. BACKGROUND
[0002] The supercritical carbon dioxide cycle is a new energy conversion technology taking carbon dioxide as a working medium, and has advantages of high energy conversion efficiency, wide working range, flexible regulation performance, compact system and the like, and has broad application prospects in fields of coal-fired thermal power generation, nuclear energy, photo-thermal power generation and waste heat recovery.
[0003] Compared with the steam Rankine cycle, the supercritical carbon dioxide cycle has fewer main gas temperature regulation means when applied to coal-fired power generation, and the adjustable parameters mainly include fuel quantity, working medium flow and air quantity and the like. However, these methods have slow response and the accuracy is difficult to guarantee. The water injection desuperheating method in the steam Rankine cycle can realize flexible and accurate temperature regulation, and is a commonly used and effective main gas temperature regulation method. If the carbon dioxide injection desuperheating method is applied to the supercritical carbon dioxide cycle power generating unit to regulate the main gas temperature by analogy with the steam Rankine cycle unit, the following shortcomings exist: (1) if the temperature of the injected carbon dioxide is high, the enthalpy rise of the carbon dioxide under the main gas pressure is small, and a very large carbon dioxide flow is required to realize rapid temperature regulation; (2) if the temperature of the injected carbon dioxide is low, the temperature gradient in the main gas pipeline and the desuperheater is large, and the thermal stress of the pipeline and the equipment is large, which affects the safety of the equipment; and (3) the compression power required to improve the pressure of the desuperheating carbon dioxide is large, which leads to the decline of the overall performance of the unit.
