DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The specific implementation of the present disclosure is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described herein is only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, and is not used to limit the present disclosure.
[0022] In the present disclosure, unless otherwise specified, directional words such as "inside" and "outside" refer to "inside" and "outside" relative to the corresponding component's own contour. In addition, the terms "first", "second", "third", etc. used in the present disclosure are to distinguish one element from another and do not have order and importance. In addition, in the following description, when referring to the drawings, unless otherwise explained, the same figure numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The above definitions are only used to explain and illustrate the present disclosure and should not be understood as limitations on the present disclosure.
[0023] In order to achieve the above purpose, Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the present disclosure provides a heat storage and release system, including a steam turbine unit 1 and a heat storage and release device 2; wherein the heat storage and release device 2 includes a shell 201 and a heat storage and release material 202, a heat exchanger 203 and an electric heating component 204 arranged in the shell 201, a first connecting port 205 of the heat exchanger 203 is connected to the steam turbine unit 1 through a first pipeline 3, and the electric heating component 204 is electrically connected to the steam turbine unit 1; when the load rate of the steam turbine unit 1 is lower than the first preset value, the heat storage and release system is in a heat storage state, at which time the heat flowing into the steam turbine unit 1 to A small amount of steam will enter the heat exchanger 203 and release heat to the heat storage material 202, and the heat storage material 202 will absorb and store the heat for subsequent use, thereby achieving the effect of waste heat recovery and improving resource utilization. When the load rate of the steam turbine unit 1 is lower than the second preset value, the electric energy generated by the steam turbine unit 1 is at least partially heated by the electric heating component 204 to heat the heat storage material 202, so that the excess electricity can be converted into thermal energy for subsequent use by the steam turbine unit 1, thereby further reducing energy consumption and saving costs.
[0024] Among them, the first preset value can be 30%, and the second preset value can be 25%, 20% or a lower value. According to different steam turbine units 1, the staff can set the preset value adapted to the steam turbine unit 1 itself as needed. Generally, the first preset value is 30%, and the second preset value is between 17% and 30%. The present disclosure does not limit this.
[0025] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the heat storage and release system further includes a lithium bromide refrigeration unit 4, which is connected to the first pipeline 3 through the second pipeline 5. When the load rate of the steam turbine unit 1 is lower than the first preset value, at least part of the steam flowing into the steam turbine unit 1 flows into the lithium bromide refrigeration unit 4 via the first pipeline 3 and the second pipeline 5 in sequence. When the heat storage and release system is in a heat storage state, a part of the steam will be transmitted to the heat storage and release device 2, so that the heat storage and release material 202 can store heat, and another part of the steam will be passed into the lithium bromide refrigeration unit 4 to drive the lithium bromide refrigeration unit 4 to work, thereby preparing low-temperature liquid water.
[0026] In some other embodiments of the present disclosure, the second connecting port 208 of the heat exchanger 203 is connected to the water tank 6; the water tank 6 can store condensed water formed after the steam flowing through the heat exchanger 203 releases heat and condenses when the load rate of the steam turbine unit 1 is lower than the first preset value; in addition, the first connecting port 205 can be positioned above the second connecting port 208 to facilitate the steam to enter and exit the first connecting port 205 and the condensed water to be discharged from the second connecting port 208.
[0027] When the load rate of the steam turbine unit 1 is higher than the third preset value, the load of the steam turbine unit 1 is high, and the heat storage and release system is switched from the heat storage state to the heat release state. The water in the water tank 6 can flow into the heat exchanger 203 to absorb the heat of the heat storage and release material 202 and evaporate. The evaporated steam flows through the first pipeline 3 and the second pipeline 5 in turn and flows into the lithium bromide refrigeration unit 4, thereby driving the lithium bromide refrigeration unit 4 to produce more low-temperature liquid water. In addition, a one-way valve can also be provided on the first pipeline 3 and the second pipeline 5 to prevent the evaporated steam from returning to the steam turbine unit 1, wherein the third preset value can be 90%.
[0028] In order to ensure that the quality of the water in the water tank 6 meets the use standards, the water tank 6 can also be connected to a desalted water system.
[0029] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the lithium bromide refrigeration unit 4 is connected to the water tank 6 through the third pipeline 7, and the lithium bromide refrigeration unit 4 is also connected to the exhaust pipe 9 of the steam turbine unit 1 through the fourth pipeline 8, so that the water from the water tank 6 enters the exhaust pipe 9 after being cooled by the lithium bromide refrigeration unit 4. In this way, the low-temperature liquid water formed by the lithium bromide refrigeration unit 4 can cool the steam discharged through the steam turbine unit 1, so as to reduce the load of other equipment that cools the steam.
[0030] For example, the heat storage and release system also includes an air-cooling island 10 for cooling the steam flowing through the exhaust pipe 9. The water tank 6 is connected to the exhaust pipe 9 through a return pipe 11, and the connection point between the return pipe 11 and the exhaust pipe 9 is located downstream of the air-cooling island 10. When the load of the steam turbine unit 1 is high, the load of the air-cooling island 10 for cooling the steam discharged from the steam turbine unit 1 is also high. Therefore, when the air-cooling island 10 cools the discharged steam, the cooling water formed by the lithium bromide refrigeration unit 4 will also enter the exhaust pipe 9 to cool the steam. Under the action of the low-temperature cooling water, the load of the air-cooling island 10 can be reduced, and the energy consumption can be reduced. The condensed water formed after the high-temperature steam is condensed will flow back to the water tank 6 through the return pipe 11, or be discharged into the condensed water system, thereby completing the collection of the condensed water.
[0031] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, Figure 2 As shown, the electric heating component 204 includes a heating unit 206 and a heat conductor 207. The heating unit 206 can heat the heat conductor 207. In order to prevent the heat of the heating unit 206 from being too high and damaging the heat exchanger 203, the heating unit 206 is located on one side of the heat exchanger 203. The heated heat conductor 207 can transfer heat to the heat storage and release material 202 to ensure that the heat storage and release system can fully utilize the excess electric energy of the steam turbine unit 1 and reduce energy waste.
[0032] Among them, the heating unit 206 can be configured as an induction heating coil, the area enclosed by the induction heating coil forms a heating area, and the heat conductor 207 is at least partially arranged in the heating area. When the load of the steam turbine unit 1 is lower than the second preset value, its excess electric energy will act on the induction heating coil, thereby heating the heat conductor 207 located in the heating area.
[0033] Alternatively, in some embodiments not shown, the heating unit 206 may also be other structures that utilize electrical energy to heat the heat conductor 207, such as an electric heating wire or an electric heating tube.
[0034] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, in order to ensure the heat transfer efficiency between the heat conductor 207 and the heat storage material 202, the heat conductor 207 is fitted with the heat storage material 202, and heat is transferred by contact between solids, which has higher heat transfer efficiency and more stable heat transfer effect. For example, the heat storage material 202 can be buried in the gaps between the various pipes of the heat exchanger 203 and the gaps between the heat exchanger 203 and the shell 201 in the form of granules or powders. The heat conductor 207 can be constructed as a rod-shaped structure, one end of which is inserted into the heating area and heated by the heating unit 206, and the other end is inserted into the heat storage material 202 to transfer the heat stored in the heating area to the heat storage material 202.
[0035] In addition, the heat conductor 207 and the heat storage material 202 may both include flake graphite and liquefied asphalt, wherein the weight ratio of flake graphite to liquefied asphalt may be 70-80:30-20. Compared with molten salt as a heat storage device, the use of flake graphite and liquefied asphalt as the heat conductor 207 and the heat storage material 202 has a higher thermal conductivity.
[0036] In order to enable the steam of the steam turbine unit 1 to fully contact the heat exchanger 203, the heat exchanger 203 includes a plurality of heat exchange tubes arranged side by side, and the angle between the extension direction of the heat exchange tubes and the horizontal plane is 15° to 30°. The specific angle can be determined according to the flow rate of the steam. For example, when the flow rate of the steam is small, the angle can be larger. On the contrary, when the flow rate is large, the angle can be smaller, so that the steam from the steam turbine unit 1 or the water from the water tank 6 can fully exchange heat with the heat storage material 202 through the heat exchange tube, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency. Among them, the plurality of heat exchange tubes can be arranged in series, the port located at the top can be connected to the first connecting port 205, and the port located at the bottom can be connected to the second connecting port 208; or, the plurality of connecting tubes can also be arranged in parallel, the common port located at the top can be connected to the first connecting port 205, and the common port located at the bottom can be connected to the second connecting port 208.
[0037] In summary, the operating status of the present disclosure can be exemplarily shown in the following table:
[0038]
[0039] Its specific working principle is: when the load of the steam turbine unit 1 is lower than the first preset value, the heat storage and release system is in a heat storage state, that is, operating condition 2, a part of the steam of the steam turbine unit 1 will enter the lithium bromide refrigeration unit 4 through the second pipeline 5, drive it to work to form low-temperature liquid water, and another part of the steam will enter the heat exchanger 203 through the first pipeline 3 and release heat to the heat storage and release material 202, and the heat storage and release material 202 formed by flake graphite and liquefied asphalt will absorb heat and preserve it, thereby completing the waste heat recovery work; if the load of the steam turbine unit 1 is further reduced, the electric heating component 204 can be activated by the excess electric energy of the steam turbine unit 1. At this time, the heat storage and release system is still in a heat storage state, that is, operating condition 3, and the induction heating coil will heat the heat conductor 207 so that the heat conductor 2 07 transfers heat to the heating unit 206 to make full use of resources; when the steam turbine unit 1 is in peak period and needs to increase the load, the heat storage and release system can be switched to the heat release state, that is, operating condition 1. At this time, the water in the water tank 6 will enter the heat exchanger 203 through the second connecting port 208, and evaporate under the action of the heat released by the heat storage and release material 202. The evaporated steam enters the lithium bromide refrigeration unit 4 through the first pipeline 3 and the second pipeline 5 in turn to drive the lithium bromide refrigeration unit 4 to work. The low-temperature cooling water formed by the lithium bromide refrigeration unit 4 will then enter the exhaust pipe 9 through the fourth pipeline 8, so that the low-temperature cooling water and the air-cooling island 10 can cool down the high-temperature steam discharged from the steam turbine unit 1, thereby reducing the load of the air-cooling island 10 and reducing resource consumption.
