In the prior art, when heating, heat is mostly distributed relying on manual experience or fixed ratios, which will lead to overloading of some heat substations and inefficient operation of some heat substations, and further lead to poor uniformity of heating; 2. When the weather changes, it is often necessary to adjust the heating temperature, and the heat substation is difficult to make a timely response.

[0033] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific embodiments.

[0034] As Figure 1 shown, a heat network balancing system based on a weighted algorithm for the load characteristic differences of heat supply stations includes: a data acquisition module, a feature analysis module, a weighted balancing module, an execution control module, and a wireless transmission module;

[0035] The data acquisition module is deployed at each heat supply station. The data acquisition module is used to collect the temperature, pressure, flow rate, and user load data of each heat supply station in real time. The data acquisition module includes temperature sensors, pressure sensors, flow sensors, etc.;

[0036] The feature analysis module is connected to the data acquisition module, and the feature analysis module is used to generate the load characteristic parameters of each heat supply station according to the historical data and the real-time status of each heat supply station. Through the feature analysis module, the load characteristic data of the entire network can be analyzed to facilitate the distribution of the total heat production to different heat supply stations;

[0037] The weighted balancing module is connected to the feature analysis module and can dynamically allocate weight coefficients based on the load characteristic parameters to generate a heat distribution strategy for the entire network. By introducing weight coefficients, heat can be more efficiently distributed to each heat supply station;

[0038] The execution control module is connected to the weighted balancing module and adjusts the heat source output, pump valve opening, and heat exchange station flow rate according to the distribution strategy. The execution control module controls each heat supply station to efficiently control the heat production performance of the heat supply station;

[0039] The wireless communication module is connected to the data acquisition module and is used to transmit the data collected by the data acquisition module.

[0040] When implementing this system, by setting up a data acquisition module, the operating status of each heat supply station can be grasped in real time, and the load can be redistributed according to the different loads of each heat supply station to ensure that each heat supply station can operate more safely and efficiently. Moreover, it can also make timely responses after weather changes, further ensuring the comfort of users.

[0041] The feature analysis module includes a heat production feature database, a real-time status evaluation unit, and a priority ranking unit.

[0042] The heat production feature database is used to store the historical load curves, historical heat production curves, pipe network topology structures, and equipment parameters of each heat supply station. The historical load curve of the heat supply station corresponds to the historical heat production curve of the heat supply station, and according to the topology structure of the pipe network, the heat loss of the heat supply station can also be calculated.

[0043] The real-time status evaluation unit is used to calculate the efficiency index and health score of each heat substation based on the data collected by the current data acquisition module. The performance of the heat substation can be evaluated through the efficiency index and health score.

[0044] The priority ranking unit is used to generate a heat substation regulation priority list according to the efficiency index of the heat substation and the user density. The smaller the efficiency index, the higher the regulation priority of the corresponding heat substation.

[0045] Mark the maximum value in the historical heat production curve of the heat substation and denote it as Q1. Mark the current heat production of the heat substation and denote it as Q0. The efficiency index of the heat substation is Q0 / Q1.

[0046] According to the historical heat production and historical equipment parameters of the heat substation, draw the historical health curve of the heat substation. Record the equipment parameters of the heat substation at this time and mark the heat production of the heat substation at this time, denoted as Q2. According to the equipment parameters at this time, obtain the corresponding heat production of the heat substation in the historical health curve of the heat substation and mark the heat production, denoted as Q3. The score of the health score is Q2 / Q3.

[0047] By calculating the efficiency index and health score, the condition of the heat substation at this time can be inferred. When the efficiency index and health score are less than the predetermined values, it indicates that there are certain potential safety hazards or maintenance is required for the heat substation, which helps the staff to master the status of the heat substation.

[0048] The weighted balancing module includes a dynamic weight generation unit and a heat distribution engine. The dynamic weight generation unit is used to generate a weight coefficient according to the efficiency index of the heat substation, the urgency of user demand, and the pipeline network loss rate. The heat distribution engine is used to distribute the total heat to each heat substation according to the weight coefficient, and the heat distribution engine also supports real-time dynamic adjustment.

[0049] Through the weight system, the distribution strategies of different heat substations are adjusted, so that when a certain parameter changes, each heat substation can respond in a timely manner.

[0050] The weighted balancing unit also includes a conflict resolution unit. When the data acquisition module collects data on insufficient water supply or equipment damage in the heat substation, the weighted balancing unit can re-distribute the load assigned to the heat substation to other heat substations, so that when a special situation occurs in a certain heat substation, other heat substations can replace it to ensure the normal operation of the heat network.

[0051] The execution control module includes an adaptive PID controller, a redundant execution unit, and a safety limiter. The adaptive PID controller includes dynamically adjusting the parameters allocated to each heat sub-station according to the allocation strategy. The redundant execution unit is used to execute a dual-loop regulation mechanism. When one loop fails, the redundant execution unit can switch to the other loop to control the heat sub-station. The safety limiter is used to restrict the execution instructions within the safe range of the parameters of each device.

[0052] It also includes a log generation module, which can generate logs of the temperature, pressure, flow rate, and user load data of each heat sub-station on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis.

[0053] To achieve the above object, the present application also provides the following technical solutions:

[0055] Step S1: The data acquisition module continuously obtains the operation data of each heat sub-station and transmits the obtained data through the wireless communication module.

[0056] Step S2: The characteristic analysis module evaluates the load characteristics of the heat sub-stations and generates a priority list.

[0057] Step S3: The weighted balancing module dynamically calculates the weight coefficients and generates a heat allocation strategy.

[0058] Step S4: The execution control module adjusts the parameters of the heat source and the pipe network to achieve balanced heat supply across the network.

[0059] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily (as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features). For the sake of brevity of description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described; these embodiments that are not explicitly written out should also be considered to be within the scope described in this specification.
