Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of boiler combustion optimization, and in particular to an optimization method for a pulverized coal distribution system of a coal-fired power station. Background Art
[0002] At present, coal-fired power plants generally have the problem of uneven coal powder distribution in the primary air duct at the outlet of the pulverizer. This problem has a great impact on the combustion of the boiler. When the coal is unevenly distributed, the actual amount of coal powder entering each burner varies greatly, which easily leads to a mismatch in the air-powder ratio, causing the combustion organization to deteriorate, resulting in serious problems such as incomplete combustion and local overheating.
[0003] The pulverized coal distributor is one of the key equipment in the pulverizing system of the power station boiler. It can provide relatively uniform pulverized coal flow for the burners corresponding to the pulverizers on the same layer, thereby ensuring that the power of each burner is equal and the ignition conditions are similar, avoiding slagging in the furnace, pipe burst on the heating surface and even fire extinguishing in the furnace, improving the deviation of flue gas flow on both sides of the furnace outlet and the large deviation of reducing atmosphere caused by oxygen-deficient combustion in local areas of the furnace, and significantly reducing the emission of harmful gases such as NOX.
[0004] At present, power plants adjust the shrinkage holes on the primary air duct and measure the wind speed during the adjustment process to make the primary air unevenness coefficient less than ±10%. However, this method has poor on-site testing conditions and large measurement errors. Although many power plants have installed pulverized coal distributors, their structures are complex and occupy a large space, which brings many inconveniences to manufacturing, installation, operation and maintenance. Therefore, how to optimize the pulverized coal distribution system by adjusting parameters in real time and adapting to changes in the system's operating status, taking into account the complexity and variability of the system, and adopting an adaptive algorithm is a difficult problem that the present invention needs to solve.
