Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a solid-state electric heat storage device and a power plant decoupling system, and in particular to a thermal power plant thermoelectric decoupling system based on a solid electric heat storage device. The present invention is applied to the field of power generation of thermal power units. Background Art
[0002] Cogeneration refers to the simultaneous generation of heat and power (CHP) by a thermal power unit using steam extraction or exhaust from the turbine to provide heat to users. Because there is no cooling loss, efficiency can reach around 80%. This operation typically prioritizes heat-to-electricity, closely linking user heat use with power generation. However, this lacks flexibility. Therefore, a solution is needed to achieve flexibility in the generation of thermal power units, enabling the mutual conversion of heat and electricity. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to achieve the flexibility of thermal power units in power generation, to achieve the purpose of mutual conversion of heat and electricity, and to provide a thermal power plant thermoelectric decoupling system based on a solid electric heat storage device.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above problems is:
[0005] A thermal power plant thermoelectric decoupling system based on a solid electric heat storage device, comprising a boiler, a steam turbine, a valve group and a group of solid electric heat storage devices;
[0006] The outlet end of the steam turbine water return pipeline is connected with the inlet end of the boiler, the steam outlet end of the boiler is connected with the steam inlet end of the steam turbine, the valve group is installed on the steam turbine water return pipeline, and a group of solid electric heat storage devices and the valve group are installed in parallel on the steam turbine water return pipeline.
[0007] Further, the valve group includes a first valve and a second valve;
[0008] The first valve and the second valve are sequentially installed in series on the water return pipe of the steam turbine.
[0009] Furthermore, a set of solid electric heat storage devices includes two solid electric heat storage devices,
[0010] The first valve is installed in parallel with a solid electric heat storage device on the water return pipeline of the steam turbine, and the second valve is installed in parallel with a solid electric heat storage device on the water return pipeline of the steam turbine.
[0011] Furthermore, it also includes two heat exchangers, a solid electric heat storage device is arranged in parallel with the first valve through a heat exchanger on the turbine water return pipeline, and another solid electric heat storage device is arranged in parallel with the second valve through a heat exchanger on the turbine water return pipeline.
[0012] Furthermore, the water inlet and outlet of the heat exchanger are connected to the water return pipeline of the turbine, and the air inlet and outlet of the heat exchanger are connected to the air duct of the solid electric heat storage device.
[0013] Furthermore, it also includes two fans, each of which is installed on the air duct of the solid electric heat storage device close to the solid electric heat storage device.
[0014] Furthermore, it also includes two fans and a water pump, which is installed on the water return pipeline of the steam turbine.
[0015] Beneficial effects of the present invention:
[0016] 1. From the perspective of the Rankine cycle of the thermal power system, a system solution suitable for the flexibility transformation of thermal power plants is proposed. The boiler return water is unidirectionally coupled with a solid electric thermal storage device. Through the use of an external heat storage heat source, multi-quality cascade utilization of energy at different times and spaces within the thermal power plant is achieved. This improves system efficiency and flexibility without changing the boiler capacity, thus achieving thermoelectric decoupling.
[0017] 2. The technical solution of the present invention is to couple the solid-state heat storage device with the water supply system of the thermal power plant to realize the flexible transformation of the thermal power unit. During the valley and flat periods of electricity consumption, the unit does not heat the feed water, and the excess electricity is input into the solid electric heat storage device to achieve "valley filling"; during the peak period of electricity consumption, the back-pressure steam turbine runs at full load, and the heat in the heat storage body is input into the boiler feed water through the fan, thereby improving the feed water parameters and thus improving the quality of boiler steam production, so as to make the steam turbine have better output. The temperature range of the hot air output by the solid storage equipment is 100-900℃, which meets the boiler feed water requirements of most units.
[0018] 3. The present invention realizes hierarchical and cascaded utilization of energy at different times and spaces by externally placing a solid electric heat storage device on the water feed of the thermal power station, thereby increasing the absorption methods of new energy and off-peak power generation to achieve "valley filling". With minimal modification to the original system, the operational flexibility of the thermal power plant is improved. For a certain power plant, the maximum operating output can be increased by 10%.

[0030] When the system operates in the valley and flat sections of electricity consumption, the first valve 3 and the second valve 4 are opened, short-circuiting the heat exchanger, and the solid electric heat storage device 5 is turned on in the heat storage mode without external output. At this time, the electricity consumption in the valley section can be increased, avoiding unstable operation and high pollution emissions of the boiler when it is at low load. The existence of the solid electric heat storage device 5 itself can also leave space for the power grid to accept new energy access at any time.
[0031] During peak electricity consumption, the pipeline valves are switched, the first valve 3 and the second valve 4 are closed, and the solid electric heat storage device 5 side circulation is opened. The solid electric heat storage device uses a centrifugal fan to transfer the heat stored in the valley section of the heat storage body to the boiler feed water through the heat exchanger to increase the feed water temperature. The water temperature at the heat exchanger outlet is monitored during operation, and the frequency of the variable frequency fan is adjusted with the help of PID control to achieve feed water temperature control. In response to the heating needs of different equipment, a segmented solid storage heating form is adopted to reduce the entropy loss during operation and realize efficient cascade utilization of energy across time and space.
