Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of energy conservation in large-scale central air-conditioning cooling stations, and in particular relates to an energy conservation optimization control method and system for a cooling side of a cooling station in summer conditions. Background Art
[0002] The cooling station system is an important part of the central air conditioning system. Through the coordinated operation of the chiller, cooling pump and cooling tower fan, heat exchange and energy transfer are completed to meet the cooling needs of the building. However, the current cooling station system still has the following outstanding problems in the operation optimization of the cooling side:
[0003] The operating parameters of existing cooling pumps and cooling tower fans are usually set based on fixed frequencies or manual experience, lacking dynamic adjustment capabilities, and unable to optimize the frequency and number of units according to real-time changes in the chiller load, resulting in high equipment energy consumption. In addition, the coordinated optimization of cooling pumps and cooling tower fans requires comprehensive consideration of multiple factors such as host load, equipment power consumption, and operating efficiency, but the existing technologies mostly use fixed value control or periodic adjustment methods, making it difficult to find the optimal solution for system energy consumption. At the same time, although the existing technology can collect operating data of cooling pumps, cooling tower fans, and hosts, these data are usually only used for status monitoring and are not fully used to guide the real-time optimization of operating parameters.
[0004] Therefore, the existing technology has significant deficiencies in operating parameter adjustment, optimization mechanism and data utilization. Especially under high-load conditions in summer, the energy consumption on the cooling side is high and the equipment operation efficiency is low, which cannot meet the requirements of energy conservation and emission reduction. In view of these problems, a control method and system that can dynamically optimize the operating parameters of the cooling pump and cooling tower fan is urgently needed to reduce the energy consumption of the cooling station and improve the operating efficiency.
