[0039] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiment of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiment of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the embodiment of the present invention, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] Reference Figure 1 , shows a flow chart of the steps of a control method of a methanol supply system of the present application, which is applied to a methanol supply system, wherein the methanol supply system at least includes a signal acquisition system and a control system, wherein the signal acquisition system further includes a first wireless transmission module, and the control system further includes a second wireless transmission module, wherein the method may specifically include the following steps:

[0041] S101, receiving parameter signals collected by a signal acquisition system in the stop, standby start, and standby stop states after the nitrogen test, wherein the parameter signals are obtained by transmitting through the first wireless transmission module and the second transmission module; the parameter information at least includes the pressure and temperature of methanol in the hazardous area;

[0042] S102: judging whether to enter the restart mode in the ring network design or the purge process of the first step of the system operation according to the parameter signal.

[0043] like Figure 2 The figure shows a flow chart of the methanol supply system. The methanol filling system injects methanol fuel into the methanol fuel storage tank, and the methanol transfer pump injects the fuel into the methanol daily tank. The methanol fuel enters the methanol auxiliary engine and the main engine through the main and auxiliary engine methanol supply systems respectively. The methanol supply system uses a methanol fuel pump to bring methanol raw materials into the system and inject them into the main engine and auxiliary engine of the ship. The embodiment of the present application provides a safe and reliable control system logic, which solves the safety and stability of the operation of the methanol supply system.

[0044] Another embodiment of the present application further supplements the control method of the methanol supply system provided in the above embodiment.

[0045] like Figure 3As shown, the ring network design is adopted, which has the characteristics of safety, stability and fast response. The ring network design enables each process module in the system to execute the next instruction according to the logical judgment of yes or no. In particular, after the purging of the preparatory work and the nitrogen test are completed, the above process can be skipped and the system process of "start-feed-run-stop-standby stop-restart" can be directly carried out. This part can form a ring network design. Security: Because any node in the ring network can carry out the system process through other paths. The data transmission method of the ring network adopts a point-to-point method, and the data will not pass through the central node during the transmission process. Therefore, it has higher security than the existing traditional technical process. If the technical parameters of a node in the ring network have problems such as alarm failure, it will not affect the entire ring network.

[0046] Stability: Since the entire ring network process is interconnected, even if a node fails, other nodes can still remain connected, and the control system can logically determine that there is no bottleneck or conflict in the ring network. It is convenient to manage, and the management method of the ring network is relatively simple. It is convenient to monitor or manage. The security and stability of the system are fully met. The system failure rate is effectively reduced.

[0047] Quick response: After a series of process controls such as purging, nitrogen testing, startup, standby startup, and standby shutdown, the entire system is monitoring technical parameters such as pressure and temperature. If the above technical parameters are within a reasonable range, the system is directly started through the ring network design. This saves time for purging and nitrogen testing, improves the efficiency of the control system, and improves the response speed.

[0048] Wireless transmission function: Through the wireless output module and input module, a series of technical parameters of the methanol supply system collected by the signal acquisition junction box are promptly transmitted to the alarm control system. This wireless transmission adopts a dual-transmit and dual-receive wireless architecture with a high wireless transmission rate and a reliable transmission distance of more than 1 km. On the basis of wireless transmission, the control system wirelessly receives technical parameters such as pressure and temperature of methanol in the dangerous area in the states of stop, standby start, standby stop, etc. after the nitrogen test. After logical analysis, it is determined whether to enter the restart mode in the ring network design or the first step of the system operation. The purge process. Without this system, these technical parameters need to be connected to the equipment in the control system through hard wires and pass through the dangerous area. This puts higher requirements on the cables for data transmission. The wireless transmission function avoids the system risk problems brought by dangerous areas.

[0049] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0050] If the parameter signal exceeds the first preset threshold, an alarm is issued.

[0051] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0052] Under the condition of purging completion, obtain the system parameters and process parameters of all instruments and equipment;

[0053] The system parameter and the process parameter are compared with the preset value and the second preset threshold value, but no instrument equipment is powered on.

[0054] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0055] Prior to supplying methanol fuel, perform a nitrogen leak test procedure.

[0056] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0057] At the beginning, the inlet valve is opened, methanol gradually fills the pipeline, and the remaining nitrogen is discharged through the exhaust valve;

[0058] After the exhaust stage is completed, the liquid methanol is filled, the feed pump and the circulation pump start to increase the pressure, and at the same time, the temperature control loop is started. When the temperature and pressure reach the set value and there is no alarm, the startup procedure is completed and a ready signal is provided to the engine control system.

[0059] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0060] In the feeding procedure, the outlet valve is opened and methanol is supplied at the pressure and temperature required by the host;

[0061] When the outlet pressure reaches stability, switch to the operating state.

[0062] Optionally, the method further comprises:

[0063] In standby stop condition, the system is isolated and filled with methanol;

[0064] During the standby shutdown condition, all instruments monitor the system and its process parameters and compare them to acceptable limits, but the equipment is de-energized;

[0065] In the event that a restart command is received, a restart will be prepared.

[0066] like Figure 4 As shown, 2.1 purging is completed:

[0067] In the purge complete condition, the system is isolated (inlet, outlet, recirculation, drain and exhaust valves closed) and free of methanol. This condition can be achieved at power-up or through the purge procedure. In the purge complete condition, all instruments are monitoring the system and its process parameters and comparing them to acceptable limits, but no equipment is powered. If an abnormal phenomenon occurs, an alarm will be triggered. If no alarm is activated, the system can be started through the startup procedure, the nitrogen leak test procedure can be performed, or the maintenance condition can be entered.

[0068] 2.2N2 Leak Test:

[0069] A nitrogen leak test procedure must be performed before supplying methanol fuel to the module to ensure that no leaks occur. It can only be started if no alarms are activated. The stop state is only reached if the nitrogen leak test is free of any problems.

[0070] 2.3 Stop

[0071] During the STOP condition, the system is isolated and ready for startup. In the STOP condition, all instruments are monitoring the system and its process parameters and comparing them to acceptable limits, but no equipment is powered. This condition can also be achieved with an emergency shutdown so the system can be partially filled with methanol.

[0072] 2.4 Startup

[0073] The startup procedure is used to prepare the system for the injection of methanol into the main engine. At the beginning, the inlet valve is opened, methanol gradually fills the pipeline, and the remaining nitrogen is discharged through the exhaust valve. After the exhaust phase is completed, the module is filled with liquid methanol, the feed pump and the circulation pump start to increase the pressure, and at the same time, the temperature control loop is started. When the temperature and pressure reach the set value and there is no alarm, the startup procedure is completed and a ready signal is provided to the engine control system (ECS).

[0074] 2.5 Standby Start

[0075] In the standby start condition, the system is completely filled with pressurized methanol circulating internally, the pump runs continuously but the outlet valve remains closed. The system waits for an injection command from the operator or the engine control system.

[0076] 2.6 Feeding

[0077] In the feeding procedure, the system opens the outlet valve and supplies methanol at the pressure and temperature required by the host. Once the outlet pressure stabilizes, the system switches to operating conditions.

[0078] 2.7 Run

[0079] In the operating condition, the system continuously supplies the host and will continue to maintain this working state if no alarm is triggered.

[0080] 2.8 Stop

[0081] Under the stop procedure, the system smoothly stops the supply of methanol to the engine, gradually reduces the pressure, stops the pump and isolates the system.

[0082] 2.9 Standby Stop

[0083] In the Standby Shutdown condition, the system is isolated and filled with methanol. During the Standby Shutdown condition, all instruments monitor the system and its process parameters and compare them to acceptable limits, but the equipment is de-energized. Once a restart command is issued from the operator or ECS, the system will be ready to restart.

[0084] 2.10 Restart

[0085] The restart sequence returns the system from standby stop to standby start. The feed pump and circulation pump are energized, the pressure control is activated and reaches the required set point. The glycol-water heating circuit is activated. If the restart sequence is completed without alarms, the system is in standby start. If the methanol fuel supply signal is activated, the system will automatically switch to the feed sequence.

[0086] 2.11 Purge

[0087] The purge procedure isolates the system from methanol and completely vents it. Pressurized nitrogen is injected into the pipeline to evacuate the methanol through the vent pipe. All vent valves are open and the vent pump is running. The presence of liquid is monitored to ensure that the amount of methanol remaining in the module is as small as possible. This procedure is started in an emergency (alarm severity category 0), by a manual command from the operator (only from the stop condition) or by an external alarm signal (from the ECS). At the end of this procedure, the system is in the purge end condition. The purge can only be interrupted by the Abort Purge button when the operator manually started the procedure.

[0088] 2.12 Emergency Stop

[0089] Emergency stop means stopping and isolating the system suddenly. The pump stops and all pneumatic valves enter the fault state. This procedure is triggered by an alarm severity level 1 or an emergency stop button or an emergency signal from the host control system. After the emergency stop procedure is completed, the system will return to the stopped state.

[0090] 2.13 Maintenance

[0091] Maintenance condition means the skid is in maintenance state. When activated (only from the purge complete condition), a pop-up freezes the screen and the system cannot be started. After completion, a nitrogen leak test procedure needs to be performed before restarting.

[0092] The embodiment of the present application breaks through the slow response of the original control method, wastes cables, and cannot avoid the hidden dangers of dangerous areas. It saves cables based on the wireless transmission module technology, and reduces the failure rate due to the ring network design.

[0093] The system architecture of the ring network design of the methanol supply system in the embodiment of the present application fully satisfies the safety and stability of the system, and the system data is wirelessly transmitted to the control system. The system risk problems caused by dangerous areas are avoided. The safety of the system is improved. The methanol supply system adopts a control system architecture of a ring network design, which effectively reduces the system failure rate. The system data is transmitted to the control system by a dual-transmit and dual-receive wireless transmission method, avoiding the system risk problems caused by dangerous areas.

[0094] It should be noted that each implementable method in this embodiment may be implemented separately, or may be implemented in combination in any combination without conflict, and this application is not limited thereto.

[0095] Another embodiment of the present application provides a control system for a methanol supply system, which is used to execute the control method for the methanol supply system provided in the above embodiment.

[0098] The control module 502 is used to determine whether to enter the restart mode in the ring network design or enter the first step of the system operation purge process according to the parameter signal.
