The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.
[0024] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, outlines a method, apparatus, and device for optimizing the topology of a compressed air energy storage array heat exchanger according to embodiments of this application. Addressing the issue of efficient utilization of heat resources in compressed air energy storage heat exchange systems mentioned in the background, this application provides a method for optimizing the topology of a compressed air energy storage array heat exchanger. This method involves constructing a physical and structural topology model of the array heat exchanger to gain a deeper understanding of its working principle and structural characteristics. Based on determining the outlet temperatures of the hot and cold fluids and the connection and operation rules of the heat exchanger units, a turbine physical model is further constructed, and the number of heat exchanger units is determined by considering multiple factors. By dynamically adjusting the connection method and operating parameters, the array heat exchanger can flexibly adapt to different operating conditions and meet diverse operational requirements. Simultaneously, by optimizing and changing the number of heat exchanger units and the structural topology model, not only can the operating domain of the heat exchanger system be broadened, but also precise control of the heat exchanger flow rate can be achieved, thereby significantly improving the high-efficiency operation capability of the compressed air energy storage heat exchanger system. This solves the problems of low operating efficiency and difficulty in adapting to diverse operating conditions in existing compressed air energy storage system heat exchangers.
[0025] Specifically, Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a topology optimization method for a compressed air energy storage array heat exchanger provided in an embodiment of this application.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, the topology optimization method for the compressed air energy storage array heat exchanger includes the following steps:
[0027] In step S101, the physical model and structural topology model of the array heat exchanger are established.
[0028] The physical models can include LMTD (logarithmic mean temperature difference method), ε-NTU (heat exchanger effectiveness-number of transfer units method), heat flow method, etc.
[0029] It is understood that by establishing a physical model of the array heat exchanger, the physical behavior and performance prediction of the heat exchanger can be analyzed, and by establishing a structural topology model, the structural composition and topological relationship of the heat exchanger can be described, providing strong support for optimized design and improved system efficiency.
[0030] In step S102, the cold fluid outlet temperature and hot fluid outlet temperature of the array heat exchanger are determined based on the physical model of the array heat exchanger, and the connection rules and operating modes of each heat exchanger unit of the array heat exchanger are obtained.
[0031] The cold fluid outlet temperature can be the temperature of the cold fluid that flows out of the heat exchanger after heat exchange in the array heat exchanger; the hot fluid outlet temperature can be the temperature of the hot fluid that flows out of the heat exchanger after heat exchange in the array heat exchanger.
[0032] The connection rules may include parallel connection of each heat exchanger unit, and the cold fluid and hot fluid between each heat exchanger unit and the adjacent heat exchanger unit at the target inlet and outlet. Parallel connection may be multiple heat exchanger units arranged side by side on the fluid flow path, so that the fluid can flow through these units at the same time. Series connection may be in the series connection of heat exchanger units, in which the fluid passes through one heat exchanger unit after another in sequence.
[0033] The operating mode may include equal mass flow rates of hot and cold fluids in each heat exchanger unit, where the mass flow rate can be the mass of fluid passing through a unit area per unit time.
[0034] It is understood that the cold and hot fluid outlet temperatures calculated by the physical model in this application embodiment can accurately predict the heat exchange performance of the array heat exchanger, obtain and adjust the connection mode and operation mode of each heat exchanger unit, optimize the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger, reduce energy consumption, and thus improve operational stability and reliability.
[0035] In step S103, a physical model of the turbine connected to the array heat exchanger is established. Based on the physical model of the turbine, the cold fluid outlet temperature and the hot fluid outlet temperature, as well as the connection rules and operating mode of each heat exchanger unit, the number of heat exchanger units used in the array heat exchanger is determined.
[0036] The turbine physical model can be a mathematical description of the actual working principle and operating state of the turbine, and the number of heat exchanger units can be the number of independent heat exchanger units that constitute the array heat exchanger.
[0037] It is understood that by establishing a physical model of the turbine, the embodiments of this application can predict the performance of the turbine under different inlet fluid conditions. Based on the cold fluid outlet temperature and the hot fluid outlet temperature, the connection rules and operating modes of each heat exchanger unit, the performance requirements of the turbine can be analyzed, thereby determining the number of heat exchanger units required for the array heat exchanger, reducing operating costs, and achieving accurate prediction and optimization of performance.
[0038] In this embodiment, the number of heat exchanger units used in the array heat exchanger is determined based on the physical model of the turbine, the cold fluid outlet temperature and the hot fluid outlet temperature, and the connection rules and operating modes of each heat exchanger unit. This includes: determining the power command that meets the requirements of the array heat exchanger based on the physical model of the turbine, the cold fluid outlet temperature and the hot fluid outlet temperature, and the connection rules and operating modes of each heat exchanger unit; and enumerating or statically playing a game on the number of heat exchanger units under the power command to determine the number of heat exchanger units used in the array heat exchanger.
[0039] Among them, the power command can be a turbine output power target set to meet specific performance requirements; enumeration can be checking all possible combinations of the number of heat exchanger units used in the array heat exchanger during the process of determining the number of heat exchanger units; and static game theory can be analyzing the impact of different numbers of units on system performance and economy under a given power command, without considering the possible reactions or adjustments of other parts of the system caused by changes in the number of units.
[0040] It is understood that, by combining the physical model of the turbine, fluid temperature parameters, and the connection and operation rules of the heat exchanger units, the embodiments of this application can formulate power commands that meet the system requirements. By using enumeration or static game theory methods, the optimal number of heat exchanger units can be determined under the premise of meeting the power commands, so as to achieve a balance between performance and economy.
[0041] For example, taking the enumeration method as an example, such as Figure 2 As shown, first, a power setting value is given, and then the number of heat exchanger units N is given. The initial value can be 1. The lower limit of the power output that meets the error requirements under the number of heat exchanger units is calculated. When the lower limit of the power is greater than the power setting value, the calculation ends. Otherwise, the number of heat exchanger units is increased by one and the calculation is repeated.
[0042] In step S104, the structural topology model of the array heat exchanger is optimized according to the equivalent power corresponding to the number of heat exchanger units used in the array heat exchanger, and the optimized structural topology model is used to control the flow rate of the array heat exchanger.
[0043] The equivalent power can be the amount of heat that the heat exchanger can transfer or the amount of heat exchanged per unit time.
[0044] It is understood that the embodiments of this application can significantly improve the heat exchange efficiency of the array heat exchanger by optimizing the number of heat exchanger units and flow control, which helps to reduce energy consumption; by optimizing and changing the number of heat exchanger units and topology, the operating domain of the heat exchanger system can be broadened; the optimized structural topology model makes the flow distribution more reasonable, reduces the performance fluctuation caused by uneven flow, and can adapt to different working environments and changing needs.
[0045] In this embodiment, the structural topology model of the array heat exchanger is optimized based on the equivalent power corresponding to the number of heat exchanger units used in the array heat exchanger to obtain an optimized structural topology model. This includes: determining an objective function based on the equivalent power corresponding to the number of heat exchanger units used in the array heat exchanger, wherein the objective function includes at least one of the equivalent power tracking deviation, the residual heat transfer energy of the hot fluid, and the overall heat transfer efficiency of the heat exchanger; and optimizing the structural topology model of the array heat exchanger using the objective function so that at least one of the equivalent power tracking deviation, the residual heat transfer energy of the hot fluid, and the overall heat transfer efficiency of the heat exchanger satisfies a preset condition to obtain the optimized structural topology model.
[0046] Among them, the equivalent power tracking deviation can be the difference or deviation between the actual generated equivalent power and the expected or target equivalent power; the residual heat energy of the hot fluid can be the unutilized heat energy that the hot fluid still retains after passing through the heat exchanger; the overall heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger can be the ratio of the heat transferred from the hot fluid to the cold fluid to the total heat carried by the hot fluid; the preset conditions can be the expected standards or limits set for performance indicators such as the equivalent power tracking deviation, the residual heat energy of the hot fluid, and the overall heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger during the optimization process.
[0047] It is understood that, through the relationship between the number of heat exchanger units used in the array heat exchanger and the equivalent power, the objective function is determined, which includes the equivalent power tracking deviation, the residual heat energy of the hot fluid, and the overall heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger. The objective function is used to optimize the structural topology model of the array heat exchanger. The optimized structural topology model can more accurately track the target equivalent power, reduce the deviation between the actual power and the target power, and effectively reduce the residual energy of the hot fluid after passing through the heat exchanger. This enables the heat exchanger to complete the heat exchange process more quickly, thereby improving the heat treatment capacity.
[0048] Specifically, the objective functions for optimizing the equivalent power tracking deviation, residual heat transfer energy of the heat fluid, and overall heat transfer efficiency of the heat exchanger can be optimized. The proportion of each element in the objective function can be determined by different methods, such as the zero-sum game method and the entropy weight method. Taking the zero-sum game method as an example, the multi-objective optimization problem containing each element is transformed into a single-objective optimization problem model with equivalent problem, and the weight proportion of each element is obtained through a multi-person zero-sum game, thus eliminating subjective factors.
[0049] The optimized constraints include turbine power command constraints, turbine safe operation constraints, shared gas path constraints for each stage of the array heat exchanger, and heat exchanger safe operation constraints. In the process of writing these constraints, the impact of mass flow rate changes on the physical quantities of the model needs to be considered. All heat exchanger-related physical quantities are modeled as variables and written into the topology optimization constraints. Relevant nonlinear and nonconvex constraints can be relaxed and linearized through relevant methods to consider the dynamic characteristics of the model in steady-state analysis, so as to achieve more accurate calculations.
[0050] The topology optimization method for compressed air energy storage array heat exchangers proposed in this application involves constructing a physical and structural topology model of the array heat exchanger to gain a deeper understanding of its working principle and structural characteristics. Based on determining the outlet temperatures of the hot and cold fluids and the connection and operation rules of the heat exchanger units, a turbine physical model is further constructed, and the number of heat exchanger units is determined by considering multiple factors. By dynamically adjusting the connection method and operating parameters, the array heat exchanger can flexibly adapt to different operating conditions and meet diverse operational requirements. Simultaneously, by optimizing and changing the number of heat exchanger units and the structural topology model, not only can the operating domain of the heat exchanger system be broadened, but also precise control of the heat exchanger flow rate can be achieved, thereby significantly improving the high-efficiency operation capability of the compressed air energy storage heat exchanger system. This solves the problems of low operating efficiency and difficulty in adapting to diverse operating conditions in existing compressed air energy storage system heat exchangers.
[0051] The following specific embodiment will illustrate the topology optimization method for compressed air energy storage array heat exchangers, including the following steps:
[0052] S1 establishes a physical model of the countercurrent heat exchanger. The physical model can be LMTD (logarithmic mean temperature difference method), ε-NTU (heat exchanger effectiveness-number of transfer units method), heat flow method, etc. The outlet temperatures of the hot and cold fluids of the heat exchanger are obtained through the established model and the given initial conditions.
[0053] It should be noted that the initial conditions can be the inlet and outlet temperatures of the hot and cold fluids at time t=0.
[0054] S2 establishes the topological model of the array heat exchanger structure;
[0055] S3 specifies the connection rules and operating mode of each heat exchanger unit in the array heat exchanger. In the topology model of the array heat exchanger, the connection mode of the cold and hot fluids of each heat exchanger unit is considered separately, but all follow the principle that parallel connection is only allowed at the total inlet and outlet and only the cold and hot fluids of two adjacent heat exchanger units are allowed to be connected in series.
[0056] It should be noted that the total inlet and outlet can be the total inlet and outlet of the array heat exchanger. For ease of control, the mass flow rates of the hot and cold fluids in each heat exchanger unit are equal.
[0057] S4 models the turbine to determine the power command. It models the turbine connected to the heat exchanger using mathematical formulas and converts the power signal output by the turbine into the power command that the heat exchanger needs to meet.
[0058] S5 determines the number of heat exchanger units used in the array heat exchanger according to the specified power command, and determines the number of heat exchanger units by enumeration or static game theory.
[0059] S6 performs topology optimization on the array heat exchanger based on the selected objective function. The number of heat exchanger units and the corresponding equivalent power determined in S5 are input into the optimization program, and then the array heat exchanger is optimized.
[0060] In summary, the embodiments of this application can broaden the operating domain of the heat exchanger system by optimizing and changing the number of heat exchanger units and the topology. The proposed model and optimization method fully consider the dynamic characteristics of the model, model the physical quantities related to mass flow rate as variables for topology optimization to achieve semi-dynamic steady-state model. The number of heat exchanger units applicable to a given power command is calculated through relevant algorithms, and then topology optimization is performed through the equivalent power coupling relationship between the heat exchanger and the turbine to achieve reasonable allocation of heat resources.
[0061] It should be noted that the air heated by the heat exchanger flows into the turbine to do work, and the temperature and mass flow rate of the air will be reflected in the power output of the turbine, thus forming a coupling relationship.
