Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of thermal power generation equipment, and in particular to an online soft measurement method, system, equipment and storage medium for the fineness of coal powder in a coal mill. Background Art
[0002] Coal powder fineness is an important parameter in the operation of thermal power plants. Reducing coal powder fineness means increasing the surface area of coal powder. Increasing the surface area can speed up the chemical reaction rate. In addition, increasing the surface area can also accelerate the precipitation process of volatiles in coal powder. These two factors are conducive to the ignition and combustion of coal powder. Therefore, reducing coal powder fineness can improve boiler efficiency. Although from the perspective of improving boiler efficiency, coal powder fineness should be reduced as much as possible, reducing coal powder fineness requires increasing the power consumption of the pulverizer. The economic efficiency of the overall operation of a thermal power plant needs to comprehensively consider the boiler efficiency and the power consumption of the pulverizer, so there is an optimal value for coal powder fineness.
[0003] Since there is an optimal value for coal powder fineness, it is necessary to measure the coal powder fineness during the operation of thermal power plants. Traditional methods for measuring coal powder fineness include microwave measurement, laser pulsation, electrostatic measurement, etc. These methods test the fineness of coal powder through corresponding sensors, but the scouring of the sensor by coal powder and the deposition of coal powder on the sensor surface will have a great impact on the test results. At present, the cost of measuring equipment for directly testing coal powder fineness is also high. The high cost and uncertainty of test results make it difficult for traditional coal powder fineness measurement methods to be used in online measurements in thermal power plants.
[0004] Soft sensing establishes mathematical models and uses readily available parameters to predict variables that are difficult to measure. Therefore, its testing cost is low. At the same time, it can realize dynamic testing of variables, so it has been widely used in industrial applications.
[0005] There are many factors that affect the fineness of coal powder, mainly including: coal quality characteristics, coal mill structure characteristics and its operating characteristics, separator structure and its operating characteristics and other pulverizing system characteristic parameters. There is a strong correlation between the influencing factors, and there is a certain degree of coupling between the factors. The online parameter identification model established by relying on curve fitting or numerical simulation of a single parameter, the measurement accuracy cannot meet the actual operation and control needs of the pulverizing system. Therefore, the soft measurement of coal powder fineness needs to adopt a combination of mechanism modeling and online identification, comprehensively considering the influence of various factors on coal powder fineness, uniformity index, and coal powder concentration, so as to establish an online parameter identification model for the pulverizing system. Summary of the invention
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an online soft measurement method, system, equipment and storage medium for coal powder fineness in a coal mill, so as to solve the problem that coal powder fineness in a thermal power plant is difficult to measure online and provide a reference for the operation of the thermal power plant.
[0007] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution provided by the present invention is:

[0040] The specific technical solutions of the present invention are as follows:
[0041] The mechanism approximate model of coal powder fineness in coal mill is established as shown in the following formula:
[0042]
[0043] Where R is the coal powder fineness, HGI is the coal grindability coefficient, M is the total moisture content of the coal, m is the coal feed rate of the coal mill, F is the hydraulic loading force, T is the inlet air temperature, Q is the inlet air volume, w is the separator speed, A, B, and C are the model coefficients of the mechanism approximate model of the coal powder fineness of the coal mill, A is a 7*7 matrix, B is a 7*1 matrix, and C is a constant.
[0044] The historical operation data of coal mill are used as training samples, and the genetic algorithm is used to obtain the initial values of model coefficients A, B and C in the mechanism approximate model of coal powder fineness of coal mill.
[0045] The error compensation model of the mechanism approximate model is established by using the TS fuzzy neural network model.

[0055] Step 4: Determine the maximum number of training times and training accuracy of the neural network in step 3
[0056] Step 5: Use the training set samples and genetic algorithm to train the neural network in step 3. When the neural network meets the training accuracy or reaches the maximum number of training steps, stop training;
[0057] Step 6: Use the test set samples to test the error compensation model. If the accuracy meets the requirements, proceed to the next step; otherwise, return to step 4;
