Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of coal-fired power generation, and in particular to a boiler soot blowing test and optimization system and method. Background Art
[0002] During the operation of power station boilers, dust and slagging on the heating surface are common problems. Dust on the heating surface of the boiler will lead to a decrease in heat exchange efficiency, increase fuel consumption, corrosion and wear of the heating surface, increase pollutant emissions, and may even cause local overheating of the heating surface, leading to serious safety accidents such as pipe bursts. The main causes of dust accumulation and slagging include changes in coal types and boiler operating conditions. Therefore, keeping the heating surface of power station boilers clean is an important measure to ensure safe, economical and environmentally friendly operation of the boiler. In order to solve these problems, the widely used method is to install a soot blowing system. The soot blowing system mainly includes steam soot blowing, gas pulse soot blowing, gas shock wave soot blowing, and sonic soot blowing. The working principle of these systems is to use different media (such as steam, gas, sound waves, etc.) to clean the heating surface to reduce dust accumulation and slagging.
[0003] However, there are some problems with the existing sootblowing systems. For example, many sootblowers consume a lot of energy and medium during operation, resulting in high operating costs, and may cause erosion of the heating surface, affecting its safety. In addition, many power plants lack an effective heating surface soot contamination monitoring system, resulting in the formulation of sootblowing strategies often relying on the experience of operators rather than real-time soot contamination data, which may cause incomplete sootblowing or over-blowing.
[0004] The current boiler heating surface ash fouling monitoring technology mainly includes monitoring based on mathematical models, acoustic temperature measurement technology, online monitoring parameter analysis, and support vector machine algorithms. These technologies have their own characteristics, but there are also some common problems. First, the high temperature and harsh environment inside the boiler pose challenges to the monitoring equipment, requiring special design and materials to ensure the stability and life of the equipment. Second, the complex environment and equipment inside the boiler may interfere with the monitoring signal and affect the accuracy of the monitoring. Third, the research and development, installation and maintenance of advanced monitoring systems involve high costs, which has become an obstacle to the promotion of technology. In addition, some monitoring technologies may be more complex and require professional personnel to operate and maintain, which increases the technical threshold. Summary of the invention
[0005] In response to the technical problems mentioned above, the purpose of the embodiments of the present application is to propose a boiler sootblowing test and optimization system and method, which can find the best economic operation mode of the sootblowing system under the premise of ensuring the safety of the unit by comparing the state parameters of the sootblowing system of the coal-fired power generation unit with the effective sootblowing cost range in real time, and can propose an optimized sootblowing guidance method according to the actual operating conditions of the unit to effectively guide the on-site sootblowing method.

[0040] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present invention discloses a boiler sootblowing test and optimization system, comprising the following modules.
[0041] The sootblowing safety judgment module 101 is used to start the corresponding sootblower for sootblowing when the contamination factor of each heating surface is higher than the starting threshold value under the condition of stable unit load, and stop the sootblowing of the corresponding sootblower when the contamination factor of each heating surface is lower than the stopping threshold value. During the sootblowing process, the tube wall temperature and contamination factor of the heating surface in the effective space range of the current sootblower are judged, and if they are within their respective safety limit ranges, the current sootblowing safety signal is output; the safety limit range of the heating surface tube wall temperature is based on the upper limit of the tube wall temperature and the preset threshold value of the tube wall temperature drop rate; the safety limit range of the contamination factor is based on the contamination factor starting threshold value, the contamination factor stopping threshold value and the preset threshold value of the contamination factor drop rate, and each threshold value is iteratively generated by the sootblowing safety judgment module online collecting multiple sootblowing process data of the unit heating surface, and the generation indicates that the sootblowing safety judgment module is activated and effective;
[0042] The sootblowing efficiency test module 102 is used to test the sootblowing modes preset based on the arrangement of the sootblower on the boiler heating surface one by one after the sootblowing safety determination module is activated and becomes effective, record the test data of each test, and form a sootblowing relationship database; the sootblowing mode includes performing single variable tests and multivariable tests based on the output adjustment amount of the sootblowing power source for each load condition branch divided according to the real-time coal-fired power generation unit electric power threshold; the sootblowing relationship database includes a unit heat consumption parameter set, a sootblowing energy consumption parameter set, a boiler heating surface working medium enthalpy parameter set, a boiler heating surface contamination factor parameter set, and a boiler heating surface effective sootblowing time parameter set under various sootblowing conditions for each heating surface of the boiler;
[0043] The effective sootblowing cost calculation module 103 is used to calculate the difference between the total benefit brought by the sootblowing of the unit and the energy loss of sootblowing according to the sootblowing relationship database obtained during the test process after the sootblowing safety determination module is activated and becomes effective, so as to obtain the net benefit of sootblowing; the total benefit brought by the sootblowing of the unit includes the benefit brought by the reduction of the heat consumption of the steam turbine and the increase of the heat load of the boiler;
[0044] The sootblowing guidance module 104 is used to output an optimized sootblowing method according to the sootblowing net benefit after the effective sootblowing cost calculation module is iterated.
[0045] Specifically, the present invention is based on an industrial control system software computing engine, and according to the contamination factor of each heating surface of the boiler of a coal-fired power generation unit, combined with the heating surface tube wall temperature measuring points and the sootblower arrangement association library, a sootblowing safety judgment module is used to perform sootblowing safety judgment; after the safety module takes effect, the sootblowing efficiency test module and the effective sootblowing cost calculation module are automatically activated, and the basic contamination factor and wall temperature after boiler pollution control are used as reference values, and different steam parameters of the sootblower are superimposed, and a sootblowing test plan is established under different load ranges, and then the effective sootblowing cost is calculated using the unit heat consumption parameter set, sootblowing energy consumption parameter set, boiler heating surface working fluid enthalpy parameter set, boiler heating surface contamination factor parameter set, and effective sootblowing time parameter set under various sootblowing conditions of each heating surface of the boiler obtained during the test.
[0046] By comparing the state parameters of the sootblowing system of coal-fired power generation units with the effective sootblowing cost range in real time, the optimal economic operation mode of the sootblowing system is found while ensuring the safety of the unit. In addition, the optimized sootblowing guidance method can be proposed according to the actual operating conditions of the unit to effectively guide the sootblowing method on site.
[0047] Furthermore, the sootblowing safety judgment module 101 starts the corresponding sootblower for sootblowing when the contamination factor of each heating surface is higher than the start threshold when the unit load is stable, and stops sootblowing by the corresponding sootblower when the contamination factor of each heating surface is lower than the stop threshold. During the sootblowing process, when the heating surface tube wall temperature and the contamination factor of the current sootblower in the effective space range of the sootblower are within their respective safety limits, the current sootblowing safety is output.
[0048] It should be noted that the contamination factor is generated according to the structural process parameters of each heating surface of the boiler of the coal-fired power generation unit, which can be specifically implemented according to the existing technology and is not limited in this embodiment.
[0049] The sootblowing safety signal is a double-factor cross-validation signal of the numerical change rate and trend of the heating surface contamination factor and the tube wall temperature in a continuous time interval from the start to the end of sootblowing, that is, when the contamination factor / tube wall temperature changes in the opposite direction, the contamination factor decrease rate is less than the preset threshold of the contamination factor decrease rate, or the tube wall temperature decrease rate is less than the preset threshold of the contamination factor decrease rate, the sootblowing safety signal flips.
[0050] The effective spatial range of the sootblower refers to the size of the area where the sootblower can reach and effectively remove the accumulated dust or slag. The effective range of the sootblower can be obtained based on the sootblower layout.
[0051] The sootblowing safety determination module is also used to: form a safety limit with the contamination factor start threshold, the contamination factor stop threshold, the contamination factor decrease rate preset threshold, the tube wall temperature upper limit and the tube wall temperature decrease rate preset threshold; if the heating surface tube wall temperature or the contamination factor in the current sootblower effective space range is not within the corresponding safety limit, an alarm signal is issued, the sootblowing efficiency test module and the sootblowing cost calculation module are terminated, the normal continuous sootblowing function is activated, and the test and calculation results are marked as invalid.
[0052] Further, combined with Figure 3 , the sootblowing efficiency test module 102 will be described in detail as follows.
[0053] According to the arrangement of the sootblower on the boiler heating surface, a suitable sootblowing test strategy is selected, different sootblowing variable parameters are set (variable parameters include different sootblowing power source output adjustment, different power source sootblowing devices, sootblowing time and different unit loads), and tests are carried out one by one to ensure that all sootblowing methods can be covered. The different sootblowing power sources can be steam sootblowing with steam extraction from two different parts, or can be a steam plus other non-steam medium sootblowing. During the test, the real-time coal-fired generator set power threshold is divided into several load condition branches. In each load condition branch, starting from the single variable test link, the sootblowing power source output adjustment is changed to obtain the effective sootblowing time length of different output adjustment amounts, and the sootblowing test and cost coefficient set of a single sootblowing power source are realized; after completing all single variable tests, enter the multivariable test link, change the output adjustment amount of each sootblowing power source when different sootblowing power sources are working at the same time, and carry out sootblowing tests to obtain the effective sootblowing time length of different output adjustment amounts, and realize the sootblowing test and cost coefficient set when two or more sootblowing power sources are working at the same time. The effective sootblowing time length is generated when the deviation between the actual contamination factor and the supremum of the contamination factor is less than a preset threshold and the time is delayed by a preset time length threshold.
[0054] During the above test process, process data is collected in real time through the industrial control system or other measurement and recording methods to form a sootblowing relationship database, including a set of unit heat consumption parameters (including unit load, steam inlet volume of the steam turbine, pressure and temperature of the main steam, boiler feed water volume, boiler feed water pressure and temperature, reheat steam volume, cold section reheat steam pressure and temperature, hot section reheat steam pressure and temperature, boiler feed water volume, boiler feed water pressure and temperature, etc.), a set of sootblowing energy consumption parameters (including sootblowing steam pressure, sootblowing steam temperature, sootblowing steam flow, sootblowing steam regulating valve position, sootblowing steam consumption, sootblowing steam pressure and temperature, sonic or other medium sootblower energy consumption parameters, sootblowing time, etc.), a set of working medium enthalpy parameters of each heating surface of the boiler (working medium includes boiler main steam, boiler feed water, reheat steam, sootblowing steam, desuperheating water, etc.), a set of contamination factor parameters of each heating surface of the boiler, and a set of effective sootblowing time parameters of each heating surface of the boiler under various sootblowing conditions.
[0055] The working fluid enthalpy of each heating surface of the boiler is obtained in real time based on the real-time pressure and temperature of the working fluid using the enthalpy calculation function block of the industrial control system (which can be DCS, SCADA, PLC, etc.).
[0056] The test process will be described below using steam soot blowing using steam extraction from two different locations and a combination of steam soot blowing and sonic soot blowing as examples.
[0057] 1. When steam soot blowing with steam extracted from two different parts is used, the following soot blowing test unit can be used in the soot blowing efficiency test module.
[0058] Step 1: Under the current unit load condition, open the first sootblowing source steam pressure regulating valve with a certain step value (change the sootblowing steam pressure accordingly) to conduct a boiler heating surface sootblowing test.
[0059] The current unit load condition means that there is no need to adjust the unit load specifically for the test, and the test can be started based on the current unit load. Our tests are generally divided into several load sections, for example: 30% to 50%, 50 to 70%, 70 to 90%.
[0060] Step 2: Under the current unit load condition, close the steam pressure regulating valve from the first sootblowing source, and open the steam pressure regulating valve from the second sootblowing source with a certain step value (correspondingly change the sootblowing steam pressure) to carry out sootblowing on the boiler heating surface.
[0061] Step 3: Two-way steam source mixed opening test.
[0062] (1) The steam pressure regulating valve of the first sootblowing source is opened to a step value and maintained at an opening, and the steam pressure regulating valve of the second sootblowing source is opened at a certain step value to perform sootblowing on the boiler heating surface.
[0063] (2) The steam pressure regulating valve of the first sootblowing source is opened to two step values and maintained at the opening degree, and the steam pressure regulating valve of the second sootblowing source is opened at a certain step value to perform sootblowing on the boiler heating surface.
[0064] (3) Repeat steps (1) and (2) until the steam pressure regulating valve of the first sootblowing source is fully opened.
[0065] (4) The steam pressure regulating valve from the second sootblowing source is opened to a step value and maintained at an opening, and the steam pressure regulating valve from the first sootblowing source is opened at a certain step value to perform sootblowing on the boiler heating surface.
[0066] (5) The steam pressure regulating valve from the second sootblowing source is opened to two step values and maintained at an opening degree, and the steam pressure regulating valve from the first sootblowing source is opened at a certain step value to perform sootblowing on the boiler heating surface.
[0067] (6) Repeat steps (4) and (5) until the steam pressure regulating valve of the second sootblowing source is fully opened.
[0068] Step 4: Adjust the load sections of different units and repeat the above tests in steps 1, 2 and 3.
[0069] When performing each step of the soot blowing test, when the deviation between the actual contamination factor and the upper bound of the contamination factor is less than a preset threshold, the test is stopped after a delay of a preset threshold time.
[0070] 2. When a combination of steam sootblowing and sonic sootblowing is used, the following sootblowing test unit can be used in the sootblowing efficiency test module.
[0071] Step 1: Under the current unit load condition, open the sootblowing steam pressure regulating valve at a certain step value (change the sootblowing steam pressure accordingly) to carry out sootblowing on the boiler heating surface.
[0072] Step 2: Close the sootblowing steam pressure regulating valve and start the sonic sootblowing to blow the boiler heating surface.
[0073] Step 3: Mixed soot blowing test.
[0074] (1) The sootblowing steam pressure regulating valve is opened to a step value and maintained at the opening, and the sonic sootblowing is started to blow soot on the boiler heating surface.
[0075] (2) The sootblowing steam pressure regulating valve is opened to two step values and maintained at the opening, and the sonic sootblowing is started to blow soot on the boiler heating surface.
[0076] (3) Repeat steps (1) and (2) until the sootblowing steam pressure regulating valve is fully opened.
[0077] (4) Repeat the above steps (1), (2) and (3) to adjust the load range of different units.
[0078] As above, when each step of the soot blowing test is performed, when the deviation between the actual contamination factor and the upper bound of the contamination factor is less than the preset threshold, the test is stopped after a delay of a preset threshold time.
[0079] Furthermore, the effective sootblowing cost calculation module 103 will be described in detail as follows.
[0080] The sootblowing cost is calculated based on the sootblowing relationship database obtained during the above-mentioned sootblowing efficiency test, including the unit heat consumption parameter set, sootblowing energy consumption parameter set, boiler heating surface working fluid enthalpy parameter set and effective sootblowing time parameter set.
[0081] According to the principle of thermal power plants, when the power generation capacity is constant, when the unit is sootblowing, the benefits of increasing the boiler heat load and reducing the turbine heat consumption are greater than the loss caused by sootblowing energy consumption. As the sootblowing time increases, the growth of sootblowing benefits will become slower and slower, and eventually the increase in energy consumption will exceed the benefits of sootblowing. By calculating the sootblowing cost of the sootblowing relationship database obtained from the sootblowing test, the maximum value of the net sootblowing benefit P can be found. max , and the soot blowing benefit is P max ~0 is the economic feasible region for sootblowing.
[0082] P net =P in -P out ;
[0083] P in =P Qb ;P Qb =Q b ×t s ;
[0084] Among them, P net is the net soot blowing income; P in Total benefit brought by soot blowing for the unit; P Qb Benefits from reduced heat consumption of steam turbine and increased heat load of boiler; s It is the effective soot blowing time.
[0085] P out =P D1
[0086] Among them, P out is the soot blowing energy loss, P D1 Indicates the energy loss of sootblowing.
[0087] The economic feasible region of sootblowing is:
[0088] The benefits brought by the increase of boiler heat load + the benefits brought by the reduction of turbine heat consumption - the energy loss of soot blowing > 0.
[0089] Specifically, when there is sootblowing fluid loss, the heat consumption of the steam turbine Q0 and the heat load of the boiler Q b as follows:
[0090] Q0=D0(h0-h fw )+D rh (h rh "-h rh ')-(ΣDs n )(h fw -h ma )-D w (h w -h ma )
[0091] Q b =Q0+(ΣDs n )(h fw -h ma )+D w (h w -h ma )+Σ(Ds n (h n -h fw ))=D0(h0-h fw )+D rh (h rh "-h rh ')+Σ
[0092] (Ds n (h n -h fw ))
[0093] Where, D0: turbine steam inlet, kg / h; h0: main steam enthalpy, kJ / kg; h fw : Boiler main feed water enthalpy, kJ / kg; D rh : Reheat steam quantity, kg / h; h rh ": reheating hot section steam enthalpy, kJ / kg; h rh ': reheat cold section steam enthalpy, kJ / kg; Ds n : The amount of steam consumed by sootblowing with different extraction steam sources, kg / h; h n Sootblowing steam enthalpy value of different extraction steam sources, kJ / kg; D w : Desuperheating water volume, kg / h; h w : Desuperheating water enthalpy, kJ / kg; h ma : enthalpy of water supplement, kJ / kg.
[0094] The soot blowing energy loss is expressed as follows:

[0096] Among them, P D1 Indicates the soot blowing energy loss; t sn Indicates the duration of soot blowing with different extraction steam sources; E m Indicates the energy consumption parameters of other medium soot blowers; K m Indicates the conversion coefficient of other medium sootblower energy consumption parameters into energy unit kilojoule; t sm Indicates the duration of soot blowing by other medium soot blowers; m and n are both greater than or equal to 1.
[0097] Furthermore, the sootblowing guidance module 104 finds the best economic operation mode of the sootblowing system by comparing in real time whether the sootblowing system cost of the coal-fired power generation unit is within the effective sootblowing cost range, and can propose an optimized sootblowing guidance method according to the actual operating conditions of the unit to effectively guide the on-site sootblowing method.
[0098] Specifically, when the sootblowing cost (net sootblowing benefit) is close to 0 or even less than 0, it means that the total benefit brought by the sootblowing of the unit is less than the energy loss of sootblowing, and a corresponding alarm is issued to remind the operating personnel to stop sootblowing and check whether there is leakage and other losses in the sootblowing system.
[0099] In different load ranges, the operator is prompted to select a suitable sootblowing source and a mixed steam supply with a suitable sootblowing steam source opening to sootblow the heating surface to obtain greater benefits. That is, the third step of the sootblowing test unit described above is to test which sootblowing source is more suitable for different load ranges, that is, the sootblowing source with greater sootblowing benefits in different load ranges.
[0100] See also Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment also discloses a boiler soot blowing test and optimization method, including:
[0101] S401, when the unit load is stable, when the contamination factor of each heating surface is higher than the start threshold, the corresponding soot blower is started for soot blowing, and when the contamination factor of each heating surface is lower than the stop threshold, the corresponding soot blower stops soot blowing. During the soot blowing process, the heating surface tube wall temperature and contamination factor of the current effective space range of the soot blower are judged. If they are within their respective safety limit ranges, the current soot blowing safety signal is output; the safety limit range of the heating surface tube wall temperature is based on the upper limit of the tube wall temperature and the preset threshold of the tube wall temperature drop rate; the safety limit range of the contamination factor is based on the contamination factor start threshold, the contamination factor stop threshold and the preset threshold of the contamination factor drop rate. Each threshold is iteratively generated by the soot blowing safety judgment module online collecting multiple soot blowing process data of the unit heating surface, and the generation indicates that the soot blowing safety judgment module is activated and effective;
[0102] S402, after the sootblowing safety determination module is activated and becomes effective, the sootblowing modes preset based on the arrangement of the sootblower on the heating surface of the boiler are tested one by one, and the test data of each test is recorded to form a sootblowing relationship database; the sootblowing mode includes, for each load condition branch divided according to the real-time coal-fired power generation unit electric power threshold, single variable test and multivariate test are respectively performed based on the sootblowing power source output adjustment amount; the sootblowing relationship database includes the unit heat consumption parameter set, the sootblowing energy consumption parameter set, the boiler heating surface working medium enthalpy parameter set, the boiler heating surface contamination factor parameter set and the effective sootblowing time parameter set under various sootblowing conditions for each heating surface of the boiler;
[0103] S403, after the sootblowing safety determination module is activated and becomes effective, the difference between the total benefit brought by the sootblowing of the computer group and the energy loss of sootblowing is calculated according to the sootblowing relationship database obtained during the test process to obtain the net benefit of sootblowing; the total benefit brought by the sootblowing of the unit includes the benefit brought by the reduction of the heat consumption of the steam turbine and the increase of the heat load of the boiler;
[0104] S404: After the effective sootblowing cost calculation module is iterated, an optimized sootblowing method is output according to the net sootblowing benefit.
