Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of air compressors, and in particular to a water-cooled compressed air supply system and a control method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Compressed air, as an important power energy source second only to electric energy in modern industry, is widely used in many industrial production fields such as chemical industry, textile, shipbuilding, etc. due to its clean, pollution-free, safe and easy to transport characteristics. It is an indispensable and important part of the industrial production process. At the same time, the compressed air supply system composed of air compressors, gas storage tanks, filters and post-treatment cold dryers or adsorption dryers also consumes 9.5% to 10% of the total electricity generated in the country. Especially in the daytime operation process with high temperature and high humidity in summer, the industrial gas consumption is the largest and the energy consumption of the gas supply system is the highest. At this time, the electricity consumption is the peak electricity with high electricity prices, which will not only increase the power supply pressure of the power grid, but also bring huge economic burden to enterprises. In addition, the high suction temperature will increase the failure rate of the compressor. In the context of increasingly prominent energy and environmental issues, it is imperative to reduce the energy consumption and operating costs of compressed air systems.

[0003] The refrigerated compressor air dryer of the compressed air supply system is the most commonly used post-processing dryer. The energy consumption of the dryer is the most important energy-consuming equipment after the air compressor. When selecting the equipment, the dryer is required to ensure the maximum air supply and the pressure dew point temperature requirements of the compressed air supplied to the user at the highest inlet temperature and humidity. However, in most industrial applications, there is a phenomenon of large air consumption during the day and small air consumption at night; in addition, the aftercooler in the air compressor is mostly an air-cooled heat exchanger, and the temperature and humidity of the ambient air also have a great impact on the inlet temperature and humidity of the dryer, which makes the dryer run at partial load and low energy efficiency for a long time outside the daytime in summer, resulting in a lot of energy waste.

[0004] At present, the aftercoolers used for cooling the lubricating oil heat exchanger and cooling the compressed air in the air compressor unit are generally air-cooled tube-fin heat exchangers. The fans used are also selected according to the worst working conditions, and most of them are driven by fixed-frequency motors. This also leads to the problem of fan energy waste under low gas consumption and low ambient temperature conditions. In addition, affected by the heat transfer temperature difference, the achievable cooled oil temperature and compressed air temperature are also limited by the ambient temperature.

[0005] The energy waste of the dryer and air compressor fan due to deviation from the design working conditions, and the resulting increase in operating costs, are urgent problems that need to be solved in the compressed air supply system, which requires the adoption of an economically feasible energy regulation solution. In addition, the compressed air supply system has the current situation of high energy consumption during peak power and low energy consumption during valley power. The use of valley power will help reduce the operating cost of the air supply system.

[0006] In order to use valley electricity for energy regulation of the compressed air system, ensure stability when operating in a high-temperature environment in summer, and achieve high energy efficiency and low cost of the system when operating with variable air supply, the present invention designs a water-cooled compressed air supply system and a control method thereof. Summary of the invention

[0017] See also Figure 1In this embodiment, a water-cooled compressed air supply system includes an air compressor subsystem, a chilled water circulation subsystem and a refrigeration ice storage subsystem. The air compressor system includes an air intake filter 100, a preheat exchanger 101, an air compressor 103, an oil separator 104, an oil cooler 105, an aftercooler 106, a first air storage tank 107, a prefilter 108, a regenerator 109, a dry heat exchanger 110, a afterfilter 111 and a second air storage tank 112. One of the outlet pipes of the air intake filter 100 is connected to the a1 inlet of the preheat exchanger 101 through a first stop valve 113, and the other is connected to the a2 outlet pipe of the preheat exchanger 101 through a second stop valve 114. The air intake filter 100 is used to filter ambient air. In this way, when the ambient temperature is not high, the first stop valve 114 is connected to the a2 outlet pipe of the preheat exchanger 101. The check valve 113 is closed, and the second stop valve 114 is opened. The ambient air filtered by the intake filter 100 directly enters the air compressor 103 for compression. When the ambient temperature is high, the first stop valve 113 is opened, and the second stop valve 114 is closed. The ambient air filtered by the intake filter 100 enters the preheat exchanger 101 for intake pretreatment. The a2 outlet of the preheat exchanger 101 is connected to the inlet of the air compressor 103 via a pipeline. A second temperature controller 126 is provided on the air outlet pipeline of the preheat exchanger 101, and is connected to the first three-way regulating valve 118 via a signal line. The lubricating oil outlet pipeline of the oil cooler 105 is provided with a third temperature controller 127, and is connected to the second three-way regulating valve 119 via a signal line. The preheat exchanger 101 The air is used for air intake pretreatment, and is cooled and dehumidified by chilled water before entering the air compressor 103. The first three-way regulating valve 118 is controlled by the second temperature controller 126 to adjust the chilled water flow entering the front heat exchanger 101, so as to control the air intake temperature of the air compressor. When the temperature is higher than the set temperature of the second temperature controller 126, the opening of the first three-way regulating valve 118 is adjusted to increase the chilled water flow entering the front heat exchanger 101. When the ambient air does not enter the front heat exchanger 101, the chilled water flows directly into the second three-way regulating valve 118 through the second outlet of the first three-way regulating valve 118. The outlet of the air compressor 103 is connected to the oil separator 104. The lubricating oil outlet at the bottom of the oil separator 104 is connected to the c1 inlet of the oil cooler 105 through a pipeline, and is connected back to the air compressor 103 through the c2 outlet. The lubricating oil temperature at the outlet of the oil cooler 105 is controlled by the third temperature controller 127 to control the opening of the second three-way regulating valve 119, and the flow of chilled water entering the oil cooler 127 is controlled. The air outlet of the oil separator 104 is connected to the pre-filter 108 through the e1 inlet and e2 outlet of the aftercooler 106 and the first air storage tank 107.The outlet of the pre-filter 108 is connected to the second air storage tank 112 through a pipeline in sequence through the g1 inlet of the regenerator 109, the h1 and h2 interfaces of the drying heat exchanger 110, the g2 outlet of the regenerator 109 and the post-filter 111. When the outlet oil temperature of the oil cooler 105 increases, the flow rate of chilled water entering the oil cooler 105 increases, otherwise it decreases, and the remaining chilled water all flows into the post-cooler 106 to cool the compressed air; The chilled water circulation subsystem includes an ice storage tank 115, a circulating water pump 116, a dry heat exchanger 110, a front heat exchanger 101, an oil cooler 105 and an aftercooler 106. The chilled water outlet of the ice storage tank 115 is connected to the inlet of the circulating water pump 116. The outlet of the circulating water pump 116 is connected to the i1 inlet of the dry heat exchanger 110 through a flow regulating valve 117. The i2 outlet of the dry heat exchanger is connected to the inlet of the first three-way regulating valve 118. The first outlet of the first three-way regulating valve 118 is connected to the b1 inlet of the front heat exchanger 101. The b2 outlet of the front heat exchanger 101 is connected to the second outlet of the first three-way regulating valve 118 through a pipeline, and is connected to the inlet of the second three-way regulating valve 119. The first outlet of the second three-way regulating valve 119 is connected to the d1 inlet of the oil cooler 105. The second outlet of the second three-way regulating valve 119 is connected to the d2 inlet of the oil cooler 105. The outlet is connected to the f1 inlet of the aftercooler 106, a dew point temperature controller 128 is provided on the g2 outlet pipeline of the regenerator 109, and is connected to the flow regulating valve 117 through a signal line, and the d2 outlet of the oil cooler 105 and the f2 outlet of the aftercooler 106 are connected back to the ice storage tank 115 through a pipeline. In this way, the dew point temperature controller 128 on the g2 compressed air outlet pipeline of the regenerator 109 is used to control the opening of the flow regulating valve 117, and the dew point temperature of the compressed air is controlled by regulating the circulation flow of the chilled water. When the dew point temperature of the outlet compressed air increases, the opening of the flow regulating valve 117 is increased to increase the chilled water flow. Through the setting of the front heat exchanger 101, the chilled water temperature is much lower than the ambient air temperature, and the heat exchange efficiency of water cooling is higher, and the energy efficiency overcomes the problem of low energy efficiency and high failure rate of the air compressor caused by high temperature.

[0018] The refrigeration ice storage subsystem includes a refrigeration compressor 120, a condenser 121, a throttle valve 122, an evaporation coil 123 and an ice storage tank 115. The refrigeration compressor 120 is a two-position regulated refrigeration compressor. The outlet of the refrigeration compressor 120 is connected to the condenser 121, the throttle valve 122 and the evaporation coil 123 in sequence. The outlet of the evaporation coil 123 is connected back to the inlet of the refrigeration compressor 120. The evaporation coil 123 is arranged in the ice storage tank 115. In this way, the two-position regulated refrigeration compressor 120 consumes low-cost valley electricity and flat electricity to make ice and store cold, and then the flow-adjustable chilled water is used to realize freeze drying of compressed air, air intake pretreatment, oil cooling and compressed air post-cooling, and the cold energy is utilized in a cascade.

[0019] In this embodiment, a travel switch 124 is provided on the upper part of the ice storage tank 115, and a first temperature controller 125 is provided on the chilled water outlet pipe of the ice storage tank 115. The travel switch 124 and the first temperature controller 125 are connected to the refrigeration compressor 120 via a signal line. Accordingly, if Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a control method for a water-cooled compressed air supply system, comprising: (1) Refrigeration ice storage control method In the normal power stage, you can manually select whether to store cold and make ice. In the valley power stage, the system automatically stores cold and makes ice. When storing cold and making ice, the refrigeration compressor 120 is turned on, and the heat absorbed by the refrigerant in the evaporating coil 123 is used to cool the water in the ice storage tank 115 to make ice. The travel switch 124 is used to determine whether the maximum ice storage capacity has been reached. When the maximum ice storage capacity has been reached, the travel switch 124 controls the refrigeration compressor 120 to shut down and stop storing ice. During operation, once the water temperature at the outlet of the ice storage tank 115 is higher than the set temperature of the first temperature controller 125, the first temperature controller 125 controls the refrigeration compressor 120 to start, and cools the water in the ice storage tank 115; (2) Intake pretreatment control method According to the ambient temperature, the first stop valve 113 and the second stop valve 114 are controlled manually or by installing a second ambient temperature controller 126. That is, when the ambient temperature is not high, the first stop valve 113 is closed, the second stop valve 114 is opened, and the ambient air filtered by the air intake filter 100 directly enters the air compressor 103 for compression. When the ambient temperature is high, the first stop valve 113 is opened, the second stop valve 114 is closed, and the ambient air filtered by the air intake filter 100 enters the front heat exchanger 101 for air intake pretreatment and is cooled by refrigerated water. After cooling and dehumidifying, the water enters the air compressor 103 again, and controls the first three-way regulating valve 118 through the second temperature controller 126 to adjust the flow of chilled water entering the front heat exchanger 101, so as to control the suction temperature of the air compressor. When the temperature is higher than the set temperature of the second temperature controller 126, the opening of the first three-way regulating valve 118 is adjusted to increase the flow of chilled water entering the front heat exchanger 101. When the ambient air does not enter the front heat exchanger 101, the chilled water flows directly into the second three-way regulating valve 119 through the second outlet of the first three-way regulating valve 118; (3) Oil cooling temperature control method The outlet lubricating oil temperature of the oil cooler 105 is controlled by the third temperature controller 127 to control the opening of the second three-way regulating valve 119, and the flow of chilled water entering the oil cooler 127 is controlled. When the outlet oil temperature of the oil cooler 105 increases, the flow of chilled water entering the oil cooler 105 is increased, and vice versa, the flow of chilled water entering the oil cooler 105 is reduced, and the remaining chilled water all flows into the aftercooler 106 to cool the compressed air; (4) Compressed air dew point temperature control method The dew point temperature controller 128 on the g2 compressed air outlet pipeline of the regenerator 109 is used to control the opening of the flow regulating valve 117, and the dew point temperature of the compressed air is controlled by regulating the chilled water circulation flow. When the dew point temperature of the outlet compressed air increases, the opening of the flow regulating valve 117 is increased to increase the chilled water flow.

[0020] According to the water-cooled compressed air supply system and control method thereof of the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention, the cold compressed air supply system includes an air compressor subsystem, a chilled water circulation subsystem and a refrigeration ice storage subsystem. Through a two-position regulated refrigeration compressor, low-cost valley electricity and flat electricity are consumed to make ice and store cold, and then the flow-controlled chilled water is used to simultaneously realize freeze drying, air intake pretreatment, oil cooling and compressed air post-cooling of the compressed air, and the cold energy is utilized in a cascade manner; and through the setting of a front heat exchanger of the air compressor, the chilled water temperature is much lower than the ambient air temperature, and the heat exchange efficiency of water cooling is higher, which can It can effectively overcome the problem of low energy efficiency and high failure rate of air compressor caused by high temperature, so it can overcome the limitation of ambient temperature on oil cooling temperature, effectively control the lubricating oil temperature, and ensure high energy efficiency operation of air compressor. In addition, the convenience of chilled water flow regulation overcomes the problem of low energy efficiency operation of partial load when traditional cold dryers are selected according to the worst working conditions, resulting in low flow compressed air supply. In addition, the cooling energy of system oil and air is basically obtained by valley electricity, which can greatly reduce the operating cost of the air supply system. After the refrigeration system is changed to ice making at night, the operating conditions are stable and there is no problem of partial load operation.

5. The control method of the water-cooled compressed air supply system according to any one of claims 1 to 4, characterized in that: include: (1) Refrigeration ice storage control method In the normal power stage, you can manually select whether to store cold and make ice. In the valley power stage, the system automatically stores cold and makes ice. When storing cold and making ice, the refrigeration compressor 120 is turned on, and the heat absorbed by the refrigerant in the evaporating coil 123 is used to cool the water in the ice storage tank 115 to make ice. The travel switch 124 is used to determine whether the maximum ice storage capacity has been reached. When the maximum ice storage capacity has been reached, the travel switch 124 controls the refrigeration compressor 120 to shut down and stop storing ice. During operation, once the water temperature at the outlet of the ice storage tank 115 is higher than the set temperature of the first temperature controller 125, the first temperature controller 125 controls the refrigeration compressor 120 to start, and cools the water in the ice storage tank 115; (2) Intake pretreatment control method According to the ambient temperature, the first stop valve 113 and the second stop valve 114 are controlled manually or by installing a second ambient temperature controller 126. That is, when the ambient temperature is not high, the first stop valve 113 is closed, the second stop valve 114 is opened, and the ambient air filtered by the air intake filter 100 directly enters the air compressor 103 for compression. When the ambient temperature is high, the first stop valve 113 is opened, the second stop valve 114 is closed, and the ambient air filtered by the air intake filter 100 enters the front heat exchanger 101 for air intake pretreatment and is cooled by refrigerated water. After cooling and dehumidifying, the water enters the air compressor 103 again, and controls the first three-way regulating valve 118 through the second temperature controller 126 to adjust the flow of chilled water entering the front heat exchanger 101, so as to control the suction temperature of the air compressor. When the temperature is higher than the set temperature of the second temperature controller 126, the opening of the first three-way regulating valve 118 is adjusted to increase the flow of chilled water entering the front heat exchanger 101. When the ambient air does not enter the front heat exchanger 101, the chilled water flows directly into the second three-way regulating valve 119 through the second outlet of the first three-way regulating valve 118; (3) Oil cooling temperature control method The outlet lubricating oil temperature of the oil cooler 105 is controlled by the third temperature controller 127 to control the opening of the second three-way regulating valve 119, and the flow of chilled water entering the oil cooler 127 is controlled. When the outlet oil temperature of the oil cooler 105 increases, the flow of chilled water entering the oil cooler 105 is increased, and vice versa, the flow of chilled water entering the oil cooler 105 is reduced, and the remaining chilled water all flows into the aftercooler 106 to cool the compressed air; (4) Compressed air dew point temperature control method The dew point temperature controller 128 on the g2 compressed air outlet pipeline of the regenerator 109 is used to control the opening of the flow regulating valve 117, and the dew point temperature of the compressed air is controlled by regulating the chilled water circulation flow. When the dew point temperature of the outlet compressed air increases, the opening of the flow regulating valve 117 is increased to increase the chilled water flow.
