Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to energy saving of metallurgical production line, and in particular to a kind of thick plate rolling mill high-pressure turbid ring water system energy-saving control system and method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Thick plate rolling mill is the main power consumption equipment for hot processing of billet in thick plate production line. During its working process, working roll contacts with hot billet and a large amount of heat is released in the process of energy conversion, which needs to be taken away to maintain the normal operation of the rolling mill. Therefore, a rolling mill turbid ring high-pressure cooling water system is usually provided to take away the heat. The rolling mill turbid ring high-pressure water supply system has high operating pressure and large flow rate, and is always continuously operated for a long time, so its energy consumption is considerable. The system is designed according to the maximum cooling load, and the system conveying capacity is often redundant under actual working conditions. Generally, the rolling mill high-pressure turbid ring water supply side and the rolling mill water consumption side are independently controlled, the water supply side supplies water in a constant pressure mode, and the water consumption side releases pressure through a regulating valve backflow, which has certain advantages in terms of reliability, but leads to a large amount of energy waste. In fact, the production conditions of the system, the environment, the state of the equipment, and the economic demand of the rolling mill for cooling water are changing in different stages of the rolling piece passing through the rolling mill, but due to the disconnection of the signals of the water supply side and the water consumption side, the changes cannot be fed back to the water supply pump set in time, causing unnecessary energy consumption of the water supply pump set. Moreover, the economic demand of the rolling mill for cooling water fluctuates greatly, and the conventional feedforward control mode and constant pressure control mode cannot achieve the best energy saving.

[0003] In summary, in order to stably and reliably achieve the energy-saving and economic operation of the rolling mill high-pressure turbid ring cooling water system, it is necessary to closely combine the economic demand of the rolling mill cooling with the operation of the water supply pump set, and adopt a fast, reliable and accurate energy-saving control method.

[0004] There are many schemes at home and abroad to combine rolling line information with energy supply system to achieve energy saving, such as the invention patent with the patent application number 201010161820.0, which provides a hot rolling cooling water control method based on rolling line control integration, and provides a feasible scheme for the energy saving of hot rolling cooling water system. The provided method is to transmit the obtained rolling line information to the cooling water control unit through a communication unit, and the control unit controls the cooling water supply according to the rolling line information, and adjusts the water supply by controlling the rotating speed of the water supply pump or the opening degree of the water supply pump outlet valve. This control method has the following disadvantages: first, the water supply is adjusted only according to the rolling line data information, which may cause unreliable operation of the water supply system due to communication abnormalities, transmission time delay, etc.; second, this control method does not consider the adjustment of the regulating valve on the rolling mill side and the control of the number of water supply pump sets started, so it is difficult to achieve the best energy saving effect, because the water distribution on the rolling mill water consumption side and the efficiency of the pump set operation also affect the system energy consumption.

[0024] When the rolling mill is not rolling, the pressure control model analyzes comprehensively according to the equipment system information and the pressure feedback information, and outputs the control instruction to adjust the rolling mill side regulating valve to reduce the backflow water, and to adjust the rotating speed and the number of opened pumps, so as to realize the extreme energy saving of the system.

[0025] By combining the information of the rolling line and the water supply system, the invalid energy loss caused by the pressure relief on the rolling line side can be reduced or even eliminated, and the reliable water supply under the information interruption of the rolling line side and the water supply side can be ensured due to the consideration of the actual output of the water supply side; the control method can quickly respond to the dynamic economic demand of the rolling mill for the cooling water under the condition of ensuring the reliable water supply, and can ensure the high tracking precision and excellent system stability; the control method can further reduce the water supply pressure during the non-rolling period to realize the energy saving, and can realize the further energy saving by adjusting the rolling mill side regulating valve and controlling the number of opened pumps of the water supply pump group.
