Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of thermal hydraulic experiment research, and in particular to a method and system for coupling control of branch temperature and flow in a thermal hydraulic experiment system. Background Art

[0002] Thermal-hydraulic experimental systems are essential platforms for studying thermal energy transfer and fluid dynamics, and are widely used in fields such as energy, chemical engineering, and HVAC. These systems typically feature a complex main circuit and experimental branch circuit structure. The main circuit ensures relatively constant fluid flow and temperature, providing relatively stable boundaries for the experimental branch circuit. The experimental branch circuit serves as the research object, and its core focus is on observing and analyzing specific thermal phenomena or equipment performance within the experimental unit through precise control of flow and temperature.

[0003] The experimental body, that is, the research object on the experimental branch, the stability of its outlet temperature is crucial to the consistency, repeatability and safety of the experiment. However, a wide range of stable experimental data points need to be obtained during the experiment. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain stable experimental data points for the flow rates of different experimental branches and the outlet fluid temperatures of different experimental bodies. During the working condition switching process, it is necessary to adjust the flow rate of the experimental branch and the outlet fluid temperature of the experimental body. The experimental body is a heating structure. When the heating power is fixed, a slight change in the flow rate will be directly reflected in the outlet temperature. This is because the heat capacity and heat transfer coefficient of the fluid will change with the flow rate, forming a nonlinear response relationship. Therefore, this nonlinear characteristic brings difficulties to the controller when adjusting the flow rate of the experimental branch and synchronously adjusting the heating power of the body to achieve coupled adjustment of the outlet fluid temperature of the experimental body, especially in situations where fast response and high-precision control are required.

[0004] The heat dissipation effect further exacerbates the control challenge, as the system must not only withstand heat exchange with the external environment but also maintain internal thermal equilibrium. This requires the controller to compensate for temperature fluctuations caused by heat dissipation in real time. Traditional control methods often struggle to accurately predict and compensate for these dynamic changes, making it difficult to stabilize experimental conditions at set values, limiting experimental accuracy and efficiency.

[0005] Given these challenges, existing technologies are limited in achieving coupled temperature and flow control in thermal-hydraulic experimental systems. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a method for coupled temperature and flow control in branches of thermal-hydraulic experimental systems. This method can achieve efficient and precise control of the main body outlet temperature when adjusting the flow in the experimental branches, thereby overcoming the shortcomings of traditional methods and improving the reliability and efficiency of experimental research. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is the lack of a method that can efficiently and accurately control the outlet temperature of the main body when adjusting the flow of the experimental branch, resulting in poor experimental reliability and efficiency. The purpose is to provide a coupled control method and system for the branch temperature and flow of a thermal hydraulic experimental system, which solves the problem of poor experimental reliability and efficiency.

[0007] The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0009] Collecting historical data of the thermal hydraulic experiment system, wherein the historical data includes ambient temperature, heating power, experiment body inlet flow, experiment body inlet fluid temperature, experiment body outlet fluid temperature and experiment body inlet and outlet fluid average pressure;

[0010] According to the average pressure of the fluid inlet and outlet of the experimental body, the constant pressure specific heat capacity of the working fluid is obtained through the working fluid physical property function;

[0011] The heating power coefficient is calculated based on the heating power, the experimental body inlet flow rate, the experimental body inlet fluid temperature, the experimental body outlet fluid temperature and the working fluid constant pressure specific heat capacity;

[0037] As a possible design, the above-mentioned control of the outlet fluid temperature of the experimental body is achieved by adjusting the experimental body heating power by taking the body heating power value as the target value. Specifically, it means adjusting the voltage and current of the experimental body so that the actual heating power value is consistent with the body heating power value.

[0046] The third parameter acquisition module obtains the outlet fluid temperature of the experimental body in real time;

When the computer-executable instructions are loaded and executed by a processor, a method for coupling control of branch temperature and flow in a thermal hydraulic experiment system is implemented.

[0055] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0056] The present invention obtains the constant-pressure specific heat capacity of the working fluid through the average pressure of the inlet and outlet fluids of the experimental body and the working fluid physical property function, obtains the heating power coefficient through the heating power, the experimental body inlet flow, the experimental body inlet fluid temperature, the experimental body outlet fluid temperature and the constant-pressure specific heat capacity of the working fluid, and trains the heating power coefficient prediction model with the ambient temperature, the experimental body inlet flow, the experimental body inlet fluid temperature, the experimental body outlet fluid temperature and the heating power coefficient, and then combines the real-time data to predict the heating power coefficient prediction value, and calculates the heating power feedforward value based on the predicted heating power coefficient prediction value, the experimental body outlet fluid temperature target value, the real-time experimental body inlet flow, the experimental body inlet fluid temperature and the constant-pressure specific heat capacity of the working fluid, and uses an ordinary PID controller according to the deviation between the body outlet fluid temperature target value and the body outlet fluid temperature to obtain the heating power feedback adjustment value, adds the heating power feedforward value and the heating power feedback value to obtain the body heating power value, and adjusts the heating power through the body heating power feedforward value to achieve control of the experimental body outlet fluid temperature. It solves the problem that during thermal hydraulic experiments, the outlet fluid temperature of the experimental body changes with the change of the body inlet flow, the adjustment of the experimental branch flow or the environment, as well as the complex problem of automatic adjustment of the outlet fluid temperature of the experimental body. It can efficiently and accurately control the outlet fluid temperature of the experimental body and improve the reliability and efficiency of experimental research.

[0057] This invention addresses the need for regulating flow and temperature in branch circuits of a thermal-hydraulic experimental system under different operating conditions during thermal-hydraulic experimental research. The control method of the invention enables automatic control of the outlet fluid temperature of the experimental body by coupling flow adjustment under different flow rates and different outlet fluid temperatures of the experimental body during the experiment. The invention has the advantages of simple structure and easy operation, and can fully meet the requirements for coupled control of temperature and flow in branch circuits of a thermal-hydraulic experimental system during thermal-hydraulic experiments.

[0058] In the calculation of the heating power feedforward value, the present invention takes into account environmental changes and other nonlinear influencing factors that are not directly considered in the heating power coefficient obtained through training. By obtaining the predicted value of the heating power coefficient, combined with the target value of the experimental body outlet fluid temperature, the real-time experimental body inlet flow, the experimental body inlet fluid temperature, and the constant-pressure specific heat capacity of the working fluid, a more accurate heating power feedforward value can be obtained. At the same time, in the calculation of the heating power feedforward value, the linear influence of the experimental body inlet flow on the heating power feedforward value is taken into account, which can realize the coupled regulation of the experimental body outlet temperature when the experimental body inlet flow changes rapidly. The heating power feedback value realizes the precise control of the small deviation between the experimental body outlet temperature value and the experimental body outlet temperature target value. Overall, the precise coupled control of the experimental body outlet fluid temperature and the experimental body inlet flow can be realized. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0071] Because changes in branch flow and environment in thermal hydraulic experimental systems can cause variations in the outlet temperature of the experimental body, achieving high-precision control and rapid response to the test body's outlet temperature is difficult, limiting the accuracy and efficiency of the experiment. This invention provides a method for coupled control of branch temperature and flow in a thermal hydraulic experimental system to address this issue. This method enables efficient and precise control of the outlet temperature of the experimental body, improving the reliability and efficiency of experimental research.

[0072] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 1The thermal hydraulic experimental system is only an example, and the coupling control method of the present invention is applicable to any thermal hydraulic experimental system.

[0073] First, refer to Figure 2-3 The present invention provides a coupling control method for branch temperature and flow of a thermal hydraulic experimental system, comprising:

[0074] S1. Collect historical data of the thermal hydraulic experiment system, wherein the historical data includes ambient temperature, heating power, experiment body inlet flow, experiment body inlet fluid temperature, experiment body outlet fluid temperature and experiment body inlet and outlet fluid average pressure.

[0075] The inventors have discovered that in thermal hydraulic experiments, to obtain experimental data at a stable operating point, researchers often need to continuously adjust the flow rate and heating power of the experimental branch to achieve the target temperature at the outlet of the experimental body. Furthermore, a single experiment often involves studying different operating conditions, resulting in a wide range of heating power levels and nonlinear characteristics. However, using ambient temperature, heating power, experimental body inlet flow rate, experimental body inlet fluid temperature, experimental body outlet fluid temperature, and experimental body inlet and outlet fluid average pressure as basic data for artificial intelligence-based heating power coefficient prediction, and employing an artificial intelligence-based method to predict the heating power coefficient, a heating power coefficient with high accuracy compared to actual results can be obtained, enabling the prediction and adjustment of the experimental body outlet fluid temperature.

[0076] S2. According to the average pressure of the inlet and outlet fluids of the experimental body, the constant-pressure specific heat capacity of the working fluid is obtained through the working fluid physical property function.

[0077] Preferably, the above-mentioned working fluid physical property function adopts IAPWS-IF97 physical property function.

[0078] S3. Calculate the heating power coefficient based on the heating power, the experimental body inlet flow rate, the experimental body inlet fluid temperature, the experimental body outlet fluid temperature and the constant pressure specific heat capacity of the working fluid.

[0079] In some embodiments of the present invention, the heating power coefficient is calculated by the following formula:

[0080] α=P / (F in ·(T out -T in )·c p )

[0081] Where,

[0082] α: heating power coefficient;

[0083] P: heating power;

[0084] F in: Experimental body inlet flow;

[0085] T in : Temperature of fluid at the inlet of the experimental body;

[0086] T out : The outlet fluid temperature of the experimental body;

[0087] c p : Specific heat capacity of working fluid at constant pressure.

[0088] S4. Using the ambient temperature, the experimental body inlet flow rate, the experimental body inlet fluid temperature, the experimental body outlet fluid temperature and the heating power coefficient to train the heating power coefficient prediction model to be trained, and obtain a trained heating power coefficient prediction model.

[0089] In some embodiments of the present invention, the heating power coefficient prediction model adopts an artificial neural network algorithm or a convolutional neural algorithm.

[0090] Artificial neural network algorithms, or convolutional neural network algorithms, have significant advantages in processing nonlinear relationships and complex data patterns, making them suitable for the multivariable, nonlinear coupled control characteristics of thermal hydraulic experimental systems. First, artificial neural networks (ANNs) and convolutional neural networks (CNNs) can learn and simulate these complex nonlinear relationships through weighted connections across multiple layers of nodes and nonlinear activation functions. This enables them to more accurately predict the heating power coefficient under different input conditions, thereby improving control accuracy. Second, they can automatically adjust weights through training, achieving adaptive response to system changes. As historical data accumulates, the model can be continuously optimized through retraining to adapt to changes in system parameters or new operating conditions, ensuring continuous optimization of the control effect; third, convolutional neural networks perform well in processing image data. Although images are not directly processed here, their local connections and weight sharing mechanisms are also applicable to processing data with spatial or time series characteristics, such as changes in the inlet flow of the experimental body over time, which helps the model extract key features from the input data, reduce redundant information, and improve prediction efficiency; fourth, through sufficient training, the neural network model can generalize to unseen data, which means that even in the face of slight changes in experimental conditions, the model can provide reliable predictions, which is crucial for maintaining the stability and control accuracy of the experimental system; fifth, the structure of neural networks, especially CNNs, is suitable for parallel computing, which can significantly improve computing efficiency when processing large amounts of data. For real-time control systems, fast response is key.

[0091] In some embodiments of the present invention, in the above-mentioned heating power coefficient prediction model, ambient temperature, experimental body inlet flow, experimental body inlet fluid temperature, and experimental body outlet fluid temperature are used as input parameters, and the heating power coefficient is the output result.

[0092] S5. Using the real-time ambient temperature, the experimental body inlet flow rate, the experimental body inlet fluid temperature and the experimental body outlet fluid temperature target value as input parameters of the heating power coefficient prediction model to predict the heating power coefficient prediction value.

[0093] S6. Calculate the heating power feedforward value based on the predicted heating power coefficient, the target value of the experimental body outlet fluid temperature, the real-time experimental body inlet flow rate, the experimental body inlet fluid temperature and the constant-pressure specific heat capacity of the working fluid.

[0094] In some embodiments of the present invention, the heating power feedforward value is calculated by the following formula:

[0104] S8. Add the heating power feedforward value and the heating power feedback value to obtain the body heating power value, and adjust the experimental body heating power by taking the body heating power value as the target value to achieve control of the fluid temperature at the outlet of the experimental body.
