[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a boiler early warning system and method under low load conditions in view of the deficiencies of the prior art, so as to solve the problems raised in the background technology.

[0007] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a boiler early warning system under low-load conditions, a real-time monitoring and data acquisition system, wherein the real-time monitoring and data acquisition system detects the boiler operation status through sensors;

[0008] A central monitoring system and a data processing platform, wherein the central monitoring system and the data processing platform are signal-connected to a real-time monitoring and data acquisition system;

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the real-time monitoring and data acquisition system includes:

[0011] The sensor data acquisition assembly is specifically composed of various sensors, including: temperature, steam, pressure, flue gas composition, and combustion status sensors;

[0012] Various data collection units, each of which is built into each type of sensor to collect data collected by each type of sensor;

[0015] The wireless data transmission module uses one of a local area network and the Internet, and the industrial communication protocol uses Modbus TCP / IP to implement.

[0016] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the data processing and analysis module includes:

[0018] The data conversion module can convert the analyzed data into visual information and display it through a real-time monitoring dashboard.

[0019] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the low-load identification and decision module includes:

[0020] Comparison of load and standard load. The load and standard load are connected to the data storage cloud and are used to compare the difference between the previous boiler load and the current data. The judgment content is as follows:

[0021] Boiler load: Low load conditions usually refer to boiler steam output and thermal power below a certain threshold;

[0022] Fuel consumption: The fuel consumption of the boiler is significantly lower than that of normal working conditions;

[0023] Combustion efficiency: The combustion efficiency of the boiler is low, which is reflected in high fuel consumption and low heat output;

[0024] The combustion consumption and heat generation analysis module can be used to detect whether the load is low or not. If the same fuel consumption corresponds to a lower heat output, it may be a sign of low load.

[0025] Boiler operating pressure and temperature: Under low-load operation, the internal pressure and temperature of the boiler are lower than the normal load setting value;

[0026] The pressure and temperature anomaly detection module can be used to detect pressure and temperature. The steam pressure and temperature of the boiler may be low when the load is low. By monitoring the changes in pressure and temperature in real time, the low-load condition can be identified.

[0027] The criteria for defining low-load conditions can be determined by comparing the rated load of the boiler with the actual load, thereby setting a threshold, for example, 60-70% below the rated load of the boiler. In addition to steam production, fuel consumption, pressure and temperature, other factors can also be considered, such as oxygen content and flue gas composition.

[0028] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the low-load identification and decision module further includes:

[0029] Warning level setting, the warning level setting can be divided into:

[0030] Primary warning: the system detects that the boiler load is slightly below the set threshold;

[0031] Level 2 warning: when the load continues to be below the threshold and is expected to cause equipment loss in the near future;

[0032] Level 3 warning: when the system determines that the boiler has entered a serious low-load condition and the load cannot be restored;

[0033] An early warning processing and anomaly detection module, which can process the collected data in real time, including data cleaning, noise removal and normalization, and complete anomaly detection;

[0034] The self-response alarm module can perform an alarm operation according to the warning level setting based on the information detected by the warning processing and abnormality detection module.

[0035] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the control model module includes:

[0036] A control model embedding module, wherein a built-in control model in the control model embedding module is composed of a physical model, a data-driven model and a control algorithm model;

[0037] The physical model mainly describes the basic operation process of the boiler, such as the combustion process, heat exchange process and heat load changes;

[0038] Data-driven models can predict boiler load demand and optimize parameters by collecting historical data and implementing data and using machine learning to build data-driven models;

[0039] Algorithm optimization module, which is used to select a suitable optimization algorithm, select a PID control algorithm according to the specific needs and working conditions of the boiler, and adjust the water supply, gas supply and combustion volume of the boiler to keep the system output near the set value;

[0040] Real-time data monitoring and feedback module, which realizes real-time monitoring of system data and timely feedback;

[0041] The optimization objectives are set according to the operation requirements of the boiler. The optimization objectives include:

[0042] By adjusting the ratio of air and fuel, optimal combustion is achieved, thereby reducing energy waste;

[0043] Control oxygen content and combustion temperature to reduce emissions of pollutants such as NOx and CO;

[0044] Optimize boiler load regulation so that the system can maximize fuel savings while meeting demand;

[0045] Dynamically adjust boiler output according to load fluctuations to avoid equipment damage due to low load;

[0046] Intelligent adjustment and self-learning to gradually optimize the control effect;

[0047] Data analysis and historical optimization: the data analysis and historical optimization can analyze various data and then compare them with the data storage cloud.

[0048] Another technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a boiler early warning method under low load conditions, comprising the following steps:

[0049] Step 1: Complete the installation of various sensors to ensure that they can be put into use normally and stably;

[0050] Step 2: Complete the collection of boiler operation status data information through various data collection units;

[0051] Step 3: The signal adjustment and conversion module adjusts the signal structure into a digital signal, and amplifies, filters and removes noise on the data, which is then transmitted to the data storage cloud via a wireless network and analyzed through the central monitoring system and data processing platform;

[0052] Step 4: The built-in security and redundancy design module of the data processing and analysis module completes the processing of data information, including data redundancy, communication redundancy, system fault tolerance and automatic recovery. The data is then converted into visual information through the data conversion module and displayed through the real-time monitoring dashboard.

[0053] Step 5: The low-load identification and decision module can compare the current boiler data with the previous load data, including boiler load, fuel consumption, combustion efficiency, boiler operating pressure and temperature, and set the low-load operating standard;

[0054] Step 6: Then, the collected data is processed in real time through the early warning processing and anomaly detection module to complete anomaly detection. When the data is abnormal, the threshold is compared to effectively influence it, and three groups of early warning levels are set at the same time;

[0055] Step 7: Use the self-response alarm module to implement alarms based on data anomalies and three warning levels, as follows:

[0056] Primary warning: the system detects that the boiler load is slightly lower than the set threshold and issues a primary warning to indicate that the boiler may enter a low-load state;

[0057] Level 2 warning: When the load continues to be lower than the threshold and it is expected that equipment will be damaged or efficiency will be reduced in the near future, a level 2 warning will be issued. At this time, some adjustment measures can be taken;

[0058] Level 3 warning: When the system determines that the boiler has entered a serious low-load condition and the load cannot be restored, a level 3 warning is issued. At this time, emergency measures should be taken immediately, such as manual intervention, adjustment of the operating mode, or shutdown inspection;

[0059] Step 8: After the warning is completed, the staff will complete the processing and embed the physical model, data-driven model and control algorithm model into the system through the control model embedding module.

[0060] The PID control algorithm is used to adjust the water supply, gas supply and combustion volume of the boiler to keep the system output close to the set value;

[0061] Among them, the proportional part (P) adjusts the control amount according to the current error value to adapt to the changes in the system.

[0062] Integral part (I): eliminates the long-term error of the system and makes the system more accurate.

[0063] Derivative part (D): predict the changing trend of the error and improve the system response speed;

[0064] Adjust the boiler operation status in line with the optimization target, and compare various data with the data stored in the cloud through data analysis and historical optimization.

[0065] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a boiler early warning system and method under low load conditions, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0066] The boiler early warning system and method under low-load conditions can ensure the safety, stability and efficiency of boiler operation by completing real-time monitoring and data collection, and can provide important decision support and early warning information for maintenance personnel, conduct effective monitoring and early warning for boiler operation conditions, and set up three sets of thresholds to improve the early warning effect. At the same time, additional safety and redundancy designs can ensure the stability and reliability of the system.

[0067] The key to identifying low-load conditions is to identify whether the boiler is in a low-load state by real-time monitoring of various operating parameters of the boiler (such as steam output, temperature, pressure, fuel consumption, etc.). Combining data analysis and automatic control systems, early identification of low-load conditions can be achieved, and corresponding measures can be taken to optimize the operation of the boiler and improve operating efficiency and safety;

[0068] Timely warning and optimization adjustment can effectively prevent safety hazards caused by low-load operation of the boiler. By optimizing the boiler's adjustment strategy, the combustion efficiency under low-load conditions can be improved, thereby reducing energy effects. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Step 5: The low-load identification and decision module can compare the current boiler data with the previous load data, including boiler load, fuel consumption, combustion efficiency, boiler operating pressure and temperature, and set the low-load operating condition standard; Step 6: Then, the collected data is processed in real time through the early warning processing and anomaly detection module to complete anomaly detection. When the data is abnormal, the threshold is compared to effectively influence it, and three groups of early warning levels are set at the same time; Step 7: Use the self-response alarm module to implement alarms based on data anomalies and three warning levels, as follows: Primary warning: the system detects that the boiler load is slightly lower than the set threshold and issues a primary warning to indicate that the boiler may enter a low-load state; Level 2 warning: When the load continues to be lower than the threshold and it is expected that equipment will be damaged or efficiency will be reduced in the near future, a level 2 warning will be issued. At this time, some adjustment measures can be taken; Level 3 warning: When the system determines that the boiler has entered a serious low-load condition and the load cannot be restored, a level 3 warning is issued. At this time, emergency measures should be taken immediately, such as manual intervention, adjustment of operating mode or shutdown inspection; Step 8: After the warning is completed, the staff will complete the processing and embed the physical model, data-driven model and control algorithm model into the system through the control model embedding module. The PID control algorithm is used to adjust the water supply, gas supply and combustion volume of the boiler so that the system output remains close to the set value; Among them, the proportional part (P) adjusts the control amount according to the current error value to adapt to the changes in the system. Integral part (I): eliminates the long-term error of the system and makes the system more accurate. Derivative part (D): predict the changing trend of the error and improve the system response speed; Adjust the boiler operation status in line with the optimization target, and compare various data with the data stored in the cloud through data analysis and historical optimization.
