Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of oil field steam injection, and in particular to a parallel molten salt heated superheated steam generating system and a parallel molten salt heated superheated steam generating system control method. Background Art

[0002] In the steam injection production of heavy oil fields, the precise generation of wet saturated steam and superheated steam is the key to achieving efficient oil production. However, the existing steam injection system generally adopts a separate design, that is, the evaporator system and the superheater system operate independently, and each provides heat source through a separate molten salt supply device. Although this design can meet basic needs under certain specific working conditions, it has significant deficiencies in overall system energy efficiency optimization and stability.

[0003] First, the existing scheme lacks linkage control in the molten salt supply process of the evaporator system and the superheater system. Since the two systems operate independently, their molten salt supply can only be adjusted by a separate control algorithm, which makes it difficult to dynamically optimize the salt supply ratio according to actual operating needs. It is often the case that the superheated steam temperature or the wet saturated steam dryness cannot meet the target requirements at the same time. This separate control method limits the overall dynamic response capability of the system, increases the consumption of molten salt, and thus reduces the operating efficiency.

[0004] Secondly, the existing scheme does not realize centralized management of cold salt recovery and hot salt distribution. The reheating process after cold salt recovery lacks stability due to the fluctuation of return salt flow, which further affects the stability of steam quality. Especially in the case of large load fluctuations or complex produced water quality, a separate molten salt supply device is difficult to coordinate the salt supply demand of the evaporator and superheater, which easily leads to fluctuations in steam quality or system overload.

[0005] In view of the above problems, a new superheated steam generation scheme needs to be proposed. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] The specific implementation of the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described here is only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and is not used to limit the present invention.

[0036] Figure 1 1 is a system structure diagram of a parallel molten salt heating superheated steam generation system provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a parallel molten salt heated superheated steam generating system, the system comprising: an evaporator system 2 and a superheater system 7 connected in sequence, which are combined to process oilfield produced water into corresponding steam for steam injection; wherein the evaporator system 2 and the superheater system 7 each have a separate molten salt supply device, and the molten salt supply device is used to provide a heat source for the operation of the evaporator system 2 and the superheater system 7; the cold salt of the molten salt supply devices of the evaporator system 2 and the superheater system 7 is collected into the same cold salt recovery device; a control module is used to construct a corresponding salt supply linkage model based on real-time operating conditions, so as to generate an optimal molten salt supply device joint control scheme that meets the steam injection demand conditions based on the salt supply linkage model; an execution module is respectively arranged on the salt supply pipelines of the molten salt supply devices of the evaporator system 2 and the superheater system 7, and is used to execute molten salt supply quantity adjustment based on the optimal molten salt supply device joint control scheme. Preferably, the evaporator system 2 includes a plurality of heat exchangers connected in series, so that the produced water after heat exchange in the previous heat exchanger flows into the current heat exchanger to perform secondary heat exchange.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present invention, the produced water first enters the first-stage heat exchanger and performs preliminary heat exchange with the hot salt to increase the water temperature; then it flows into the next-stage heat exchanger and continues to perform deep heat exchange with the hot salt, so that the water temperature is gradually increased until it reaches the design requirements. Through this multi-stage series heat exchange method, the utilization efficiency of the hot salt can be effectively improved, and the energy loss caused by the large temperature difference in the single-stage heat exchange can be avoided. Multi-stage heat exchange can also reduce the risk of local scaling, because the gradual temperature increase design reduces the scaling probability of high-silicon water under high temperature conditions, thereby extending the service life of the heat exchanger. In addition, the design optimizes the series connection process of the heat exchanger so that the evaporator system 2 can flexibly adapt to the changes in produced water temperature and flow rate under different working conditions. The first-stage heat exchanger is mainly responsible for heating the produced water to a lower range of saturation temperature, while the subsequent heat exchanger completes the wet steam generation process according to the design load. This can ensure the operating stability of the entire system and provide high-quality wet steam under low or high load conditions.

[0038] Furthermore, the system also includes: a preheating system connected to the front end of the evaporator system 2; the preheating system is used to preheat the produced water and supply the preheated produced water to the preheating system.

[0039] In the embodiment of the present invention, the main function of the preheating system is to preheat the produced water using a low-grade heat source, raise the water temperature from the ambient temperature to an initial heating level, and then transport the preheated produced water to the evaporator system 2 for further heating and steam generation. The preheating system can choose to use waste heat, waste heat recovery system or low-temperature hot salt as a heat source, fully utilize the remaining thermal energy resources in the system, and effectively reduce the consumption of high-grade hot salt.

[0040] By adding a preheating link before the evaporator system 2, not only the thermal efficiency of the overall system is improved, but also the heat load of the heat exchanger in the evaporator system 2 is reduced. Specifically, the preheating system raises the produced water temperature to a lower limit close to the saturation temperature, thereby reducing the heat required for heat exchange in the evaporator. This design can not only shorten the heating time of the evaporator system 2, but also reduce the delivery volume of hot salt and the working intensity of the pump, greatly improving the operating economy of the system.

[0041] Preferably, the superheater system 7 includes: a steam-water separator connected to the output pipe of the evaporator system 2, and used to perform steam-water separation on the wet saturated steam output by the evaporator system 2 to obtain dry steam and saturated water respectively; a superheater connected to the pipe for outputting dry steam from the steam-water separator, and used to realize heat exchange between the dry steam and the hot molten salt in the molten salt supply device of the superheater system 7 to convert the dry steam into superheated dry steam; a mixer, which collects the superheated dry steam and the saturated water, and is used to generate steam for steam injection based on the mixing of the superheated dry steam and the saturated water.

[0042] In an embodiment of the present invention, the working process of the superheater system 7 is as follows: First, the wet saturated steam is output by the evaporator system 2 and enters the steam-water separator, and the steam-water separator separates the wet steam into dry steam and saturated water through efficient separation technology. The dry steam is transported to the superheater through a connecting pipe, and heat is exchanged with the hot molten salt from the molten salt supply device of the superheater system 7, and it is further heated to become superheated dry steam. Subsequently, the superheated dry steam and the saturated water separated by the steam-water separator are mixed in a mixer according to a set ratio to generate steam that meets the steam injection requirements. This design fully considers the different requirements for the dryness and temperature of wet saturated steam, and adjusts the steam quality to an appropriate range through the separation treatment of the steam-water separator and the precise heating of the superheater. At the same time, the addition of the mixer further enhances flexibility, enabling the system to adapt to different steam injection requirements by adjusting the mixing ratio without changing the front-end production process.

[0043] Based on the scheme of the present invention, wet saturated steam is separated into dry steam and saturated water by a steam-water separator, eliminating the influence of droplets in wet steam and ensuring the stability and efficiency of the subsequent superheating process. The superheater uses high-temperature molten salt to heat dry steam, which can heat the steam to a precise superheat temperature range to meet the needs of different steam injection processes. The setting of the mixer enables the system to adjust the temperature and dryness of the final steam according to the steam injection requirements by mixing superheated dry steam and saturated water, and adapt to the requirements of different heavy oil blocks. The recycling of saturated water reduces energy waste, while the mixing process avoids the waste of superheated steam and realizes efficient operation of the system. The application of the steam-water separator reduces the corrosion and scaling of the superheater caused by droplet scouring, reduces equipment maintenance costs and prolongs service life. The multi-stage process of separation-heating-mixing optimizes the dynamic response capability of steam generation, so that the system can still maintain stable operation when the load fluctuates or the produced water conditions change.

[0044] Preferably, the molten salt supply device of the superheater system 7 includes: a second salt supply pipeline arranged in the opposite direction of the dry steam output direction of the steam-water separator, and the second salt supply pipeline is arranged in the same path as the dry steam delivery pipeline in the superheater; the execution module arranged on the superheater system 7 includes: a second hot salt pump 13, used to pump hot salt into the second salt supply pipeline; a second three-way regulating valve 15 arranged on the second salt supply pipeline between the superheater and the second hot salt pump 13, used to control the hot salt flow rate flowing into the second salt supply pipeline corresponding to the superheater; the molten salt supply device of the superheater system 7 also includes: a second hot salt reflux pipeline arranged on the third end of the second three-way regulating valve 15, used to reflux the excess hot salt in the total hot salt flow rate output by the second hot salt pump 13 that does not flow to the superheater system 7 to the hot salt storage system.

[0045] In an embodiment of the present invention, the molten salt supply device of the superheater system 7 is composed of modules such as a second salt supply pipeline, a second hot salt pump 13, a second three-way regulating valve 15, and a second hot salt reflux pipeline, forming a closed-loop molten salt flow control system. The second salt supply pipeline is arranged in the same path as the dry steam delivery pipeline in the superheater, and its design fully considers the maximization of the heat exchange efficiency between hot salt and dry steam. Driven by the second hot salt pump 13, the high-temperature molten salt is transported to the superheater through the second salt supply pipeline, heat exchanged with the dry steam, and further heated to a preset superheat temperature. At the same time, the second three-way regulating valve 15 is installed between the second hot salt pump 13 and the superheater to adjust the hot salt flow to the superheater, ensuring that the system can stably output high-quality superheated dry steam under different load conditions.

[0046] Furthermore, in order to avoid molten salt waste and further optimize energy efficiency, the third end of the second three-way regulating valve 15 is connected to the second hot salt return pipe. Through this return mechanism, the excess hot salt not consumed by the superheater is quickly recovered to the hot salt storage system and recycled again. This design not only reduces energy consumption, but also can dynamically optimize the hot salt distribution ratio through the return adjustment mechanism, thereby reducing the operating pressure of the superheater system 7.

[0047] Preferably, the molten salt supply device of the evaporator system 2 includes: a first salt supply pipeline arranged in the direction from the last heat exchanger of the evaporator system 2 to the first heat exchanger; the execution module arranged on the evaporator system 2 includes: a first hot salt pump 17, used to pump hot salt into the first salt supply pipeline; a first three-way regulating valve 19 arranged on the first salt supply pipeline between the last heat exchanger and the first hot salt pump 17, used to control the hot salt flow rate flowing into the first salt supply pipeline corresponding to the evaporator system 2; the molten salt supply device of the evaporator system 2 also includes: a first hot salt reflux pipeline arranged on the third end of the first three-way regulating valve 19, used to reflux excess hot salt in the total hot salt flow rate output by the first hot salt pump 17 that does not flow to the evaporator system 2 to the hot salt storage system.

[0048] In an embodiment of the present invention, the first salt supply pipeline is arranged along the heat exchangers in the evaporator system 2, extending from the last heat exchanger to the first heat exchanger. This countercurrent arrangement design allows the hot salt to first contact the heat exchanger area with a higher temperature, and then flow through the heat exchangers with lower temperatures in sequence, thereby maximizing the heat transfer efficiency of the hot salt. In this way, the thermal energy of the hot salt is gradually released, so that each stage of the heat exchanger in the evaporator system 2 can absorb heat in the most efficient way. The first hot salt pump 17 is responsible for pumping the hot salt from the hot salt storage system into the first salt supply pipeline to provide the required heat for the evaporator system 2. The operating frequency of the hot salt pump can be dynamically adjusted according to the system load to meet the hot salt demand under different working conditions, thereby achieving energy saving and efficient operation.

[0049] Furthermore, the first three-way regulating valve 19 disposed between the last heat exchanger and the first hot salt pump 17 has a flow regulating function. By adjusting the valve opening, the hot salt flow entering the evaporator system 2 is controlled to ensure that the hot salt supply matches the current heat exchange demand of the evaporator system 2. The three-way valve design makes the hot salt supply highly flexible and can quickly respond to the operating changes of the evaporator system 2. The excess hot salt that does not flow to the evaporator system 2 is transported to the first hot salt return pipe through the third end of the first three-way regulating valve 19 and directly returned to the hot salt storage system. This design can quickly recover and reuse excess hot salt, effectively reducing the waste of hot salt, while reducing the burden on the hot salt pump and optimizing the energy efficiency of the entire heating system.

[0050] Preferably, the control module is configured to: collect demand information of steam for steam injection, and use the demand information of steam for steam injection as a basic constraint; construct a corresponding optimization model based on the basic constraint and artificial immune algorithm, and the optimization target of the optimization model is the minimum hot salt consumption; perform iterative solution on the optimization model until the iteration termination condition is triggered, and output the optimal control scheme of the molten salt supply device of the evaporator system 2 and the superheater system 7 as the optimal molten salt supply device joint control scheme.

[0051] In the embodiment of the present invention, the control module first collects the demand information of steam for steam injection, including target steam parameters (pressure, temperature, dryness) and real-time operating data (produced water flow, inlet water temperature, etc.). This information serves as the basic constraint of the optimization process and provides clear goals and constraints for the control scheme of the molten salt supply device.

[0052] Based on the above basic constraints, the control module uses an artificial immune algorithm to construct a corresponding optimization model. The artificial immune algorithm is inspired by the biological immune system and has efficient global optimization capabilities and adaptability through mechanisms such as selection, cloning, mutation, and memory. The goal of the optimization model is set to achieve the minimum hot salt consumption, thereby maximizing system energy efficiency and reducing operating costs while meeting steam quality requirements. Through the iterative solution of the artificial immune algorithm, the model can dynamically adjust the control parameters of the evaporator and superheater molten salt supply device, including the hot salt pump frequency and the three-way valve opening.

[0053] During the iteration process, the control module evaluates the optimal solution in real time according to the actual working conditions, and ensures the convergence and computational efficiency of the optimization process by setting reasonable iteration termination conditions (error threshold or maximum number of iterations). When the iteration termination conditions are triggered, the control module outputs the optimal control scheme, which is the joint control strategy of the molten salt supply device of the evaporator and superheater system 7.

[0054] Furthermore, the corresponding optimization model is constructed based on the basic constraints and the artificial immune algorithm, including: taking the valve opening of the first hot salt pump 17, the second hot salt pump 13, the first three-way regulating valve 19 on the evaporator system 2 side and the valve opening of the second three-way regulating valve 15 on the superheater system 7 side as antibody structures; constructing a corresponding fitness function for evaluating the fitness of each antibody; specifying a corresponding mutation frequency, and constructing a corresponding optimization model based on the antibody structure, fitness function and mutation frequency.

[0055] In an embodiment of the present invention, the key control variables of the system (including the frequency of the first hot salt pump 17, the frequency of the second hot salt pump 13, the valve opening of the first three-way regulating valve 19 on the evaporator side, and the valve opening of the second three-way regulating valve 15 on the superheater side) are used as components of the antibody structure. These variables directly affect the flow distribution of the molten salt supply and the thermal efficiency of the system, and are the core parameters for achieving precise control. In the model, the fitness function is a key indicator for evaluating the quality of each antibody. The fitness function comprehensively considers the steam quality error (such as the deviation of the dryness and temperature from the target value) and the hot salt consumption. In order to achieve dynamic optimization of the model, a reasonable mutation frequency is specified, and new antibodies are generated through the mutation mechanism of the artificial immune algorithm. The mutation mechanism introduces small disturbances to simulate the adjustment of the hot salt pump frequency or valve opening, thereby enhancing the diversity of the antibody population and avoiding falling into a local optimal solution. At the same time, antibodies with higher fitness will be cloned first to speed up the global optimization process. Finally, through the screening, cloning and mutation iteration of antibodies, the model can output a set of control parameters with the highest fitness to form an optimal molten salt supply joint control scheme.

[0056] Preferably, the fitness function is expressed as:

[0057] in, is the fitness value; Total hot salt consumption; , represents the error between the steam quality of steam injection and the target steam quality; and are the target wet steam dryness and the actual wet steam dryness respectively; and are the target superheated steam temperature and the actual superheated steam temperature respectively; and are the preset weights for total hot salt consumption and steam quality error respectively.

[0058] In the embodiment of the present invention, the fitness function mainly consists of two parts: total hot salt consumption and steam quality error. The total hot salt consumption reflects the energy usage of the system operation and is an important indicator for measuring the energy efficiency of the system. By reducing the use of hot salt, not only can the operating cost be reduced, but also the energy utilization efficiency can be improved, thereby achieving the goal of energy saving and emission reduction.

[0059] Steam quality error is another key component of the fitness function, which is used to quantify the deviation between the actual parameters of steam injection and the target parameters. Specifically, the steam quality error includes the deviation of wet steam dryness and superheated steam temperature. The size of dryness deviation and temperature deviation directly affects the use effect of steam, especially in heavy oil production, where the requirements for steam quality are very strict. Therefore, by strictly controlling the steam quality error, the dryness and temperature of the output steam can be guaranteed to be stable and meet the steam injection needs of different oil fields.

[0060] In order to achieve a balance between the total hot salt consumption and the steam quality error, the fitness function introduces a weight parameter to adjust the influence of the two parts. This design can flexibly adjust the optimization target according to actual needs. For example, when energy saving is prioritized, the weight of hot salt consumption can be increased, while in scenarios with high steam quality requirements, the weight of steam quality error can be increased.

[0061] Preferably, the iterative solution of the optimization model is performed until the iteration termination condition is triggered, and the optimal control scheme of the molten salt supply device of the evaporator system 2 and the superheater system 7 is output as the optimal molten salt supply device joint control scheme, including: performing model initialization, randomly generating multiple antibodies within the design range of a preset operating frequency of the molten salt supply device and the opening and closing degree of each valve as an initial antibody population; calculating the fitness of each antibody in the initial antibody population respectively, and selecting antibodies with a fitness greater than a preset fitness threshold to perform mutation in the optimization direction to obtain mutated antibodies; selecting antibodies with a fitness greater than a preset fitness threshold from the mutated antibodies to perform mutation in the optimization direction again, so as to repeat multiple mutations until the number of iterations is reached, or the fitness function reaches a convergence condition, the iteration is stopped, and the optimal control scheme of the molten salt supply device of the evaporator system 2 and the superheater system 7 is output as the optimal molten salt supply device joint control scheme.

[0062] Preferably, the rule for determining the optimization direction is: introduce PID control logic, determine the control point of PID, and determine the optimization direction based on the control point of PID; wherein, the PID control point of the valve opening of the first hot salt pump 17 and the first three-way regulating valve 19 on the evaporator system 2 side is confirmed based on the dryness of the wet saturated steam; the PID control point of the valve opening of the second hot salt pump 13 and the second three-way regulating valve 15 on the superheater system 7 side is confirmed based on the temperature of the superheated steam.

[0063] In the embodiment of the present invention, the scheme of the present invention combines the steam quality control requirements and the minimum hot salt consumption target in the initialization stage, optimization stage and convergence termination stage, effectively improving the operating efficiency of the steam injection system and the stability of the steam quality. Specifically, the following steps are included: 1) Model initialization: In the initialization stage, multiple antibodies are randomly generated within the preset operating frequency range of the molten salt supply device and the design range of the valve opening and closing degree. These antibodies represent possible control parameter combinations, including the frequency of the first hot salt pump 17 and the second hot salt pump 13, and the opening of the first three-way regulating valve 19 and the second three-way regulating valve 15. These antibodies constitute the initial antibody population as the initial solution space for optimization. The fitness value of each antibody is calculated by the fitness function, which integrates the system's hot salt consumption and steam quality error (including the deviation of wet steam dryness and superheated steam temperature). The higher the fitness value, the closer the corresponding antibody is to the optimization target.

[0064] 2) Mutation optimization stage: In the optimization phase, mutation operations are performed on antibodies in the initial population whose fitness is greater than the preset threshold. The purpose of mutation is to generate a new solution space by partially adjusting the antibody structure to explore a better combination of control parameters. The mutation operation is based on the following rules: PID control logic is introduced to dynamically adjust the optimization direction. The control action point of PID is confirmed by real-time steam parameter feedback: the optimization direction of the first hot salt pump 17 and the first three-way regulating valve 19 is determined by the wet steam dryness control point. By real-time monitoring of wet steam dryness, the PID control logic adjusts the frequency of the first hot salt pump 17 and the opening of the first three-way regulating valve 19 to stabilize the wet steam dryness within the target value range. The optimization direction of the second hot salt pump 13 and the second three-way regulating valve 15 is determined by the superheated steam temperature control point. By monitoring the superheated steam temperature, the PID control logic dynamically adjusts the frequency of the second hot salt pump 13 and the opening of the second three-way regulating valve 15 to ensure that the superheated steam temperature meets the steam injection demand.

[0065] Mutation rules: Antibodies with higher fitness are preferentially selected for mutation. In each round of mutation, small perturbations (such as fine-tuning of the upper and lower limits of the pump frequency or changes in the valve opening) are introduced to generate new antibodies.

[0066] 3) Iterative solution: After the variant antibodies are generated, their fitness values ​​are calculated again, and antibodies with fitness values ​​greater than the threshold are included in the next round of optimization iterations. This process is repeated until one of the following conditions is met: Reaching the preset number of iterations indicates that the algorithm's optimization exploration has been fully launched.

[0067] The fitness function converges, that is, the optimal control parameter combination of the system has been determined.

[0068] When the iteration stops, the antibody with the highest fitness is output as the final control scheme, forming the optimal molten salt supply device joint control scheme for the evaporator system 2 and the superheater system 7.

[0069] Based on the scheme of the present invention, through the iterative optimization of the artificial immune algorithm and the introduction of the PID control logic, the system can realize real-time joint control optimization under dynamic conditions. The PID control logic provides a dynamic adjustment basis for the optimization direction, so that the optimization scheme always takes the balance of steam quality and hot salt consumption as the goal. The PID control point design based on the wet steam dryness and superheated steam temperature ensures that the steam quality meets the steam injection demand. During the optimization process, the real-time adjustment of dryness and temperature makes the steam output more stable and adapts to the steam injection demand under different oil field conditions. With the minimum hot salt consumption as the optimization target, the molten salt supply is dynamically adjusted to reduce unnecessary energy waste, improve the utilization efficiency of molten salt, and thus reduce the system operation cost. By introducing the variation mechanism of the artificial immune algorithm, the system can explore a broader solution space and avoid falling into the local optimal solution. At the same time, the algorithm can flexibly adapt to load fluctuations and operating conditions, enhancing the adaptability and robustness of the system. Without manual intervention, the whole process from model initialization to the output of the final optimization scheme is automatically completed, which simplifies the operation process and improves the intelligence level of the control system. The optimized molten salt supply device joint control solution significantly reduces the hot salt consumption and equipment operating load, reducing operation and maintenance costs. At the same time, reducing energy consumption helps reduce carbon emissions, which meets the needs of green and low-carbon development.

[0070] Preferably, the PID control action point of the valve opening of the first hot salt pump 17 and the first three-way regulating valve 19 on the evaporator system 2 side is based on the confirmation rule of the dryness of the wet saturated steam execution confirmation:

[0071] in, It is the combined control output of the valve opening of the first hot salt pump 17 and the first three-way regulating valve 19 on the evaporator system 2 side; is the dryness error of wet saturated steam; , and They are proportional gain, integral gain and differential gain respectively.

[0072] In an embodiment of the present invention, the PID control logic monitors the dryness of wet saturated steam in real time, takes the deviation between the actual dryness and the target dryness as the control input, and calculates the joint control output based on the proportional, integral and differential gains. The control output directly acts on the frequency adjustment of the first hot salt pump 17 and the opening adjustment of the first three-way regulating valve 19, thereby dynamically adjusting the hot salt flow entering the evaporator system 2 to achieve precise control of the steam dryness. The proportional gain is mainly used to respond to the real-time dryness error, provide rapid adjustment force, and ensure that compensatory measures are taken quickly when the dryness deviates from the target value. The integral gain corrects the long-term deviation of the system by accumulating historical errors to avoid steady-state errors in the system during operation; the differential gain improves the dynamic response capability of the system by predicting the changing trend of the dryness error and reduces the adjustment lag caused by too fast dryness changes.

[0073] Preferably, the PID control action point of the valve opening of the second hot salt pump 13 and the second three-way regulating valve 15 on the superheater system 7 side is based on the confirmation rule of the superheated steam temperature execution confirmation:

[0074] in, It is the combined control output of the valve opening of the second hot salt pump 13 and the second three-way regulating valve 15 on the superheater system 7 side; Temperature error of superheated steam for steam injection; , and They are proportional gain, integral gain and differential gain respectively.

[0075] In an embodiment of the present invention, the control logic monitors the actual temperature of the superheated steam, compares it with the target temperature, and obtains the temperature error as input. The PID controller generates a joint control output based on the calculation rules of proportion, integration and differentiation, which is used to dynamically adjust the operating frequency of the second hot salt pump 13 and the opening of the second three-way regulating valve 15, thereby adjusting the hot salt flow entering the superheater system 7. The proportional control part responds quickly to the current temperature error and provides immediate adjustment force to ensure that compensation measures are taken quickly when the temperature deviates from the target value. The integral control part corrects the deviation of the system during long-term operation by accumulating the temperature error to avoid the accumulation of steady-state errors. The differential control part responds to possible rapid temperature fluctuations in advance by predicting the changing trend of the temperature error, thereby enhancing the dynamic adjustment capability of the system.

[0076] Preferably, PID control logic is introduced to determine the control action point of PID, and the optimization direction is determined based on the control action point of PID, including: dynamically correcting the variables of the antibody solution through the PID control logic to optimize the steam quality; calculating the fitness value using the variables adjusted by PID, and determining the optimal control action point based on the fitness evaluation result; and performing antibody variation based on the optimal control point as the corresponding optimization direction.

[0077] In the embodiment of the present invention, the PID control logic takes the deviation between the target value and the actual value as input according to the real-time feedback of the steam quality parameters (wet steam dryness and superheated steam temperature), and dynamically corrects the variables of the antibody solution through proportional, integral and differential calculations. These variables usually include the frequency of the hot salt pump and the opening of the three-way valve, which are the core factors affecting the molten salt flow rate and steam quality. After being corrected by the PID logic, the variables can more accurately meet the steam quality requirements and form an optimized preliminary control plan.

[0078] On this basis, the fitness value is calculated using the corrected variables. The fitness value evaluation not only reflects the hot salt consumption of the current control scheme, but also measures the error in steam quality (deviation of dryness and temperature). The fitness evaluation results are used to further screen the optimal control action points, which represent the best adjustment strategy for the system under the current operating conditions. After determining the optimal control action point, the antibody mutation operation is further performed based on the action point. Mutation generates new antibody solutions by applying small disturbances to the variables, thereby expanding the solution space and exploring better control schemes. The mutated antibody solution has a clear direction and is more in line with the goal of steam quality optimization.

[0079] Preferably, the control scheme of the molten salt supply device of the evaporator system 2 and the superheater system 7 with the optimal output, as the optimal molten salt supply device joint control scheme, includes: the joint control output of the valve opening of the first hot salt pump 17 and the first three-way regulating valve 19 on the evaporator system 2 side and the joint control output of the valve opening of the second hot salt pump 13 and the second three-way regulating valve 15 on the superheater system 7 side under the PID control logic of the final iterative round, and the control strategy decoupling of each joint control output is performed to obtain the target power of the first hot salt pump 17, the target valve opening of the first three-way regulating valve 19 on the evaporator system 2 side, the target power of the second hot salt pump 13 and the target valve opening of the second three-way regulating valve 15 on the superheater system 7 side, respectively, to generate corresponding control schemes as the optimal molten salt supply device joint control scheme.

[0080] In an embodiment of the present invention, the scheme of the present invention utilizes PID control logic to jointly optimize the key control parameters of the evaporator system 2 and the superheater system 7, and decouples based on the control output in the final iteration round to generate specific target values ​​for each control device, including the target power of the first hot salt pump 17, the target valve opening of the first three-way regulating valve 19 on the evaporator system 2 side, the target power of the second hot salt pump 13, and the target valve opening of the second three-way regulating valve 15 on the superheater system 7 side.

[0081] By decoupling the control strategy, the control target of each device can be optimized independently, thus eliminating the interference problem between devices and ensuring that each device can work together in the most efficient way during operation. The control of the first hot salt pump 17 and the first three-way regulating valve 19 is mainly based on the wet steam dryness target of the evaporator system 2, and the stability of the wet steam dryness is maintained by dynamically adjusting the hot salt flow and distribution ratio; the second hot salt pump 13 and the second three-way regulating valve 15 are based on the superheated steam temperature target of the superheater system 7, and the temperature of the superheated steam is ensured to meet the steam injection requirements by accurately adjusting the hot salt supply.

At this time, the first three-way regulating valve 19 is fully open (that is, all the molten salt goes through the 1-1 hot salt pipeline 21). When the dryness value displayed by the online monitoring device 4 is higher than the set value, the first control system 6 reduces the frequency of the first hot salt pump 17 through the set PID calculation logic, so that the dryness value of the online monitoring device 4 is adjusted back to the set value; on the contrary, when the dryness value displayed by the online monitoring device 4 is lower than the set value, the first control system 6 increases the frequency of the first hot salt pump 17 through the set PID calculation logic, so that the dryness value of the online monitoring device 4 is adjusted to the set value.
