Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of optimization control of ship cooling source systems, and in particular, to a ship cooling source system control method and control system. Background Art
[0002] When a ship sails in different sea areas, the external environment changes dramatically, and the temperature difference between different seasons and different sea areas can reach about 60°C. Ship air conditioning equipment is usually selected based on the principle of meeting the design conditions, and operates in a constant speed and constant power mode, resulting in the air conditioning system being in a partial load state most of the time.
[0003] In addition, the operating efficiency of fans and pumps in ship cooling systems is generally only 40% to 50%. Therefore, ship cooling systems have great energy-saving prospects in equipment operation. At present, many studies have proposed energy-saving operation plans for different types of ships. According to the changes in outdoor loads, the equipment operation status is dynamically adjusted, which can not only increase the cabin comfort during the voyage of the ship, but also save energy and increase the ship's endurance. With the increase in the number of ships with energy-saving operation plans, the outdoor meteorological parameters that are adapted to their annual heading in time and space and their corresponding air-conditioning equipment operation plans have important application value for similar ships. By directly calling the database parameters of the meteorological data and operation data accumulated during the ship's operation process, the operation of the target ship's air-conditioning system is adjusted, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing operating energy consumption.
[0004] At present, the control methods of cold source systems mainly include traditional fixed parameter control, expert strategy experience control, intelligent algorithm optimization control, model-free control, etc. Traditional fixed parameter control is prone to large energy waste due to the large redundancy of cold source equipment, and it is impossible to adjust the equipment in real time in the face of complex and changeable conditions at the end.
[0005] For example, the air conditioning and ventilation optimization systems in some public buildings collect environmental parameters through sensors, establish an air conditioning and ventilation database, establish an expert model strategy library based on equipment information, and update the expert strategy model library in real time based on equipment operation data, and automatically adjust the air conditioning system equipment parameters based on expert strategies. This solution can effectively adjust equipment parameters to reduce system energy consumption while maintaining indoor comfort, but it requires complex data acquisition equipment and communication systems, and cannot provide universal expert strategies based on complex and changeable projects.
[0006] For example, in some central air-conditioning refrigeration station systems, energy-saving optimization control systems and control methods thereof include industrial control computers and PLC / BAS field control systems connected thereto, which collect environmental parameters and equipment data through sensors, establish equipment model libraries and system energy consumption models, and use global optimization algorithms to optimize and control equipment operating parameters in real time. Although this solution can optimize and control equipment parameters in real time according to indoor and outdoor parameters on site, and reduce system energy consumption as much as possible while ensuring that the cooling capacity remains unchanged, it still requires complex data acquisition equipment and communication systems, and a certain amount of equipment data in the early stage to build the model, which reduces the universality of the method.
[0007] For example, in some central air-conditioning control methods based on multi-agent deep reinforcement learning, load demand and outdoor wet-bulb temperature are used to optimize the number of chillers started and stopped, water pump frequency, and fan frequency in the cold source system based on multi-agent deep reinforcement learning, which can effectively reduce equipment failure rate and energy consumption. Although this solution can effectively reduce the energy consumption of water pumps and fans, the chiller as a core component of the cold source cannot be ignored, and this method cannot work for fixed-frequency water pumps without frequency converters, reducing its universality. Summary of the invention

This design flexibility and simplicity significantly improves the universality and practicality of this method, while also reducing the cost of implementing energy-saving measures.
[0089] In addition, this method significantly improves the efficiency of data utilization by utilizing the actual cold source operation data of similar ships. This approach not only reduces the reliance on expert knowledge and strategies, but also reduces the requirements for the professional quality of operators. This means that even in the absence of professional technicians, this method can be effectively applied, thereby lowering the application threshold and enabling more ships to benefit from this energy-saving technology.

[0104] In this embodiment, the ship configuration information at least includes the number of equipment, equipment rated parameters, design cooling load, total cooling area, ship type, etc. The ship type can be divided into 15000TEU container ship, 21000TEU container ship, 2200m 3 LNG carrier, 83000m 3 LNG ship, 4000 car carrier, etc. Usually the control system contains many sensors, which can collect a variety of cold source operation data. The cold source operation data at least includes equipment type, equipment start and stop information, equipment operation parameters, etc.

[0124] Calculate the ratio of the designed cooling water flow rate to the sum of the rated flow rates of the cooling water pumps
[0125]
[0126] Therefore, the ship characteristics of ship x are
[0127] Similarly, the ship characteristics of the target ship are
[0128] The ship characteristics of the reference ship are Where i = 1, 2, 3...N; N is the number of reference ships in the ship database;
[0129] The ship characteristics of the reference ship and the target ship are denoted as X, that is:
[0130]
[0131] Specifically, in this embodiment, the normalization process of the ship characteristics of the target ship and the ship characteristics of the reference ship in step S32 may include the following steps:

[0146] Specifically, in this embodiment, calculating the similarity between the target ship and the reference ships in the ship database in step S33 may include the following steps:
[0147] Create a similarity expression S i =S i (x norm,i ,x norm,tar ), that is, the similarity between the target ship and the i-th reference ship is:
[0148]
[0149] Where: i = 1, 2, 3 ... N, is the weight of each parameter in the ship characteristics,
[0150] Then the similarity between all reference ships in the ship database and the target ship is S = (S1, S2...S N ).
[0151] Specifically, in this embodiment, determining the similar ship group most similar to the target ship from the ship database based on the similarity of the ships in step S34 may include the following steps:
[0152] Set the number of similar ship groups to Ns =min(N1,N2); where N1 is the set value, N2 = (5% to 15%) N, and N is the number of reference ships; for example, N1 can be 10, and N2 = 10% N;
[0153] Select N with the smallest similarity from S s S i The corresponding reference ships form a similar ship group, denoted as S s :

[0155] The ship characteristics of a group of similar ships are denoted by
[0156] In this embodiment, in step S4, establishing a cold source operation strategy for the target ship based on the cold source operation data of the similar ship group may include the following steps:
[0157] S41, establish a cold source operation strategy expression F = ((T, B), (C, P)); its meaning is: in the T period, the outdoor temperature is in the B interval, it is recommended that the number of start and stop of each device is C, and the operation parameter is set to P;
[0158] S42, according to the similar ship group determined in step S3, the cold source operation data of the similar ship group is screened out from the ship database as the cold source operation database D of the similar ship group, and the cold source operation data of each reference ship and each time period in the cold source operation database D is recorded as D j :
[0159] D j =((T,B),(C,P)) j ;
[0160] S43. According to different (T, B), the data in the cold source operation database D is classified, that is:
[0161]
[0162] Where: N r Represents the sum of the number of cold source operation data in the cold source operation database D of similar ship groups that conform to the current (T, B) combination.
[0163] In step S41, the time period T can be segmented according to time period lengths of 30 minutes, 60 minutes, etc., the outdoor temperature interval B can be segmented according to interval lengths of 1°C, 2°C, etc., the number of equipment starts and stops C can be expressed as (C1 chiller starts and stops, C2 cooling water pumps start, and C3 chilled water pumps start), and the equipment operation parameter setting P can be expressed as (the chiller water supply temperature is P1°C, the cooling water pump frequency is P2Hz, and the chilled water pump frequency is P3Hz).
[0164] In this embodiment, in step S5, providing a control reference for the cold source system equipment parameters of the target ship based on the cold source operation strategy may include the following steps:
[0165] Determine the actual sailing period and outdoor temperature of the target ship and obtain the (T r ,B r ); Here, a simple outdoor temperature sensor can be used to obtain the outdoor temperature, or the outdoor temperature value can be determined comprehensively based on seasonal factors, ship longitude and latitude data, sun altitude, weather data, etc.

[0169] According to F r =((T r ,B r ),(C r ,P r ))'s operation strategy gives (T r ,B r ) conditions.
[0170] For example, "When the period T r Between 8:00 and 9:00, when the outdoor temperature is B r Within (26,27)℃, the number of equipment starts and stops C r = (1 chiller starts, 1 cooling water pump starts, 1 freezing water pump starts), equipment operating parameters P r The recommendations are (chiller water supply temperature is 12°C, cooling water pump frequency is 42Hz, and chilled water pump frequency is 42Hz)".
[0171] The core of the ship cold source system control method of the present application is to screen out a reference ship group (similar ship group) that is highly similar to the target ship from the established ship database through the ship similarity evaluation standard. Such a screening mechanism not only ensures the relevance and practicality of the data, but also provides a solid foundation for the formulation of subsequent cold source operation strategies.
[0172] After building a group of similar ships, this method further uses the cold source operation data of these ships to tailor a set of cold source operation strategies for specific target ships. This strategy fully considers the actual operating conditions and historical data of the ship and can provide accurate equipment parameter adjustment guidance for the ship's cold source system. In this way, the ship can achieve more optimized cold source system operation, thereby achieving the goal of energy conservation and emission reduction.
[0173] A significant advantage of this method is that it requires almost no real-time temperature data collection in the cooling area. Compared with traditional cooling system control methods, this greatly reduces the need for complex data acquisition equipment.
