Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of thermal power transformation, and particularly relates to a method for replacing thermal power with nuclear power that takes into account peak shaving and heat supply, and a generator set. Background Art
[0002] Building a new power system is a key measure for China to achieve the goal of carbon neutrality. How to achieve the orderly reduction of thermal power on the basis of the safe and reliable replacement of new energy is the core problem of the new power system. In the Chinese power system, the stock of thermal power is large, the proportion is high, and the carbon emissions are high, so the situation of carbon emission reduction in thermal power is severe.
[0003] At present, in addition to early retirement and reducing direct emissions through a carbon capture system for carbon reduction measures for thermal power plants, using low-carbon technologies such as nuclear energy to transform thermal power units is also an exploratory path. From a functional perspective, both nuclear power and thermal power can be used as base load power sources. From the perspective of resource utilization rate, if thermal power rigidly exits when the remaining service life is relatively long, the overall cost of retiring and demolishing existing thermal power plants is relatively high. Therefore, by transforming thermal power plants into nuclear power plants, resources such as the grid connection system, water source, land, transmission facilities, and some process equipment and infrastructure of existing thermal power plants can be utilized to reduce the overall cost of the power plant.
[0004] However, frequent regulation of the reactor load of a nuclear power plant will cause fluctuations in the reactor state, posing potential safety hazards in operation. Due to its own technical characteristics, the peak shaving and frequency modulation capabilities of nuclear power are much lower than those of thermal power units, and the flexibility is poor. A considerable part of thermal power units in China have both power generation and heat supply functions, and the operation of the units follows the principle of heat determining power, while most nuclear power units in China do not have the heat supply function. Therefore, it is necessary to study a method for transforming thermal power units into nuclear power units to solve the problem of mismatch between power and peak shaving capabilities during the transformation of thermal power units into nuclear power units. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to solve the problem of mismatch in peak shaving capabilities during the transformation of thermal power to nuclear power, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for replacing thermal power with nuclear power that takes into account peak shaving and heat supply, and a generator set.
[0006] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for replacing thermal power with nuclear power that takes into account peak shaving and heat supply, including:
[0007] Using a steam molten salt heat exchanger to store the steam heat of the nuclear island steam generator in the molten salt of the first molten salt assembly;
[0008] Using a heat exchange assembly to heat the feed water in the feed water pipe with the molten salt heat of the first molten salt assembly to generate steam, so that the steam drives the steam turbine to work;
[0009] Use a hydrophobic molten salt heat exchanger to store the heat of the condensate from the steam molten salt heat exchanger in the molten salt of the second molten salt assembly;
[0010] Use a heating heater to transfer the heat of the molten salt of the second molten salt assembly to the primary heating network pipeline.
[0011] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides a power generation unit for peak shaving and heat supply, which is applied to the method described in the above embodiment. The power generation unit includes a nuclear island steam generator, a steam molten salt heat exchanger, a hydrophobic molten salt heat exchanger, a first molten salt assembly, a second molten salt assembly, a heat exchange assembly, a feed water pipeline, a steam turbine, a generator, a heating heater, and a primary heating network pipeline. The steam molten salt heat exchanger is respectively connected to the nuclear island steam generator and the first molten salt assembly, and is used to store the steam heat of the nuclear island steam generator in the molten salt of the first molten salt assembly. The hydrophobic molten salt heat exchanger is respectively connected to the steam molten salt heat exchanger and the second molten salt assembly, and is used to store the heat of the condensate from the steam molten salt heat exchanger in the molten salt of the second molten salt assembly. The heat exchange assembly is respectively connected to the first molten salt assembly and the feed water pipeline. The steam turbine is connected to the heat exchange assembly through a steam pipeline. The steam turbine is connected to the generator. The heating heater is respectively connected to the second molten salt assembly and the primary heating network pipeline, and is used to transfer the heat of the molten salt of the second molten salt assembly to the primary heating network pipeline.
[0012] An embodiment of the present invention provides a method and a power generation unit for replacing thermal power with nuclear power for peak shaving and heat supply. The heat of the secondary loop steam of the nuclear island is stored in the first molten salt assembly (i.e., the molten salt in the high-temperature zone) and the second molten salt assembly (i.e., the molten salt in the low-temperature zone), and different molten salt heat absorption system powers and molten salt heat release system powers are respectively matched and set according to the power of the nuclear island reactor and the power of the original thermal power steam turbine generator, so that the operation of the nuclear island reactor system and the operation of the steam turbine power generation system can be decoupled. At the same time, by setting a low-temperature zone molten salt energy storage system, external heat supply of the system is realized. Through decoupling, the power of the reactor can be different from the power of the original thermal power steam turbine generator, and the problem of power mismatch in the process of replacing thermal power with nuclear power is solved. Through decoupling, the power of the steam turbine generator can be flexibly adjusted according to the requirements of the power grid, while the power of the reactor can remain unchanged, and the problem of peak shaving capacity mismatch in the process of replacing thermal power with nuclear power is solved.

Detailed implementation manners
[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0019] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the method for transforming nuclear power to replace thermal power while taking into account peak shaving and heating provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes:
[0020] Step S1: Use the steam molten salt heat exchanger 2 to store the steam heat of the nuclear island steam generator 1 in the molten salt of the first molten salt assembly;
[0021] Step S2: Use the heat exchange assembly to heat the feed water in the feed water pipe 4 with the molten salt heat of the first molten salt assembly to generate steam, so that the steam drives the steam turbine 5 to operate;
[0022] Step S3: Use the drain molten salt heat exchanger 3 to store the drain heat of the steam molten salt heat exchanger 2 in the molten salt of the second molten salt assembly;
[0023] Step S4: Use the heating heater 7 to transfer the heat of the molten salt in the second molten salt assembly to the primary heating network pipeline 8.
[0024] In this embodiment, the steam heat of the secondary circuit of the nuclear island is stored in the first molten salt assembly (i.e., the molten salt in the high-temperature area) and the second molten salt assembly (i.e., the molten salt in the low-temperature area), and different molten salt heat absorption system powers and molten salt heat release system powers are respectively matched according to the power of the nuclear island reactor and the power of the original thermal power steam turbine generator, so that the operation of the nuclear island reactor system and the operation of the steam turbine power generation system can be decoupled. At the same time, by setting up the low-temperature area molten salt energy storage system, the system realizes external heat supply. Through decoupling, the reactor power can be different from the power of the original thermal power steam turbine generator, solving the problem of power mismatch in the process of converting thermal power to nuclear power. Through decoupling, the power of the steam turbine generator can be flexibly adjusted according to the requirements of the power grid, while the reactor power can remain unchanged, solving the problem of mismatch in peak shaving capacity in the process of converting thermal power to nuclear power.
[0025] It should be noted that the above combined generator set is the transformation of the original thermal power using nuclear power. Among them, the nuclear power plant mainly consists of a nuclear island reactor system, a conventional island steam turbine generator system, and a plant-wide auxiliary system. The thermal power plant mainly consists of a boiler system, a main plant steam turbine generator system, and a plant-wide auxiliary system. The transformation of the thermal power unit to nuclear power uses the nuclear island reactor system to replace the boiler system of the thermal power unit to provide heat source for the power plant, and other parts such as the original thermal power unit steam turbine generator system are reused as much as possible. When transforming the thermal power plant to nuclear power, while using the existing power grid access system of the thermal power plant to reduce the overall cost of the power plant, the transformed power plant also needs to have the peak shaving and frequency modulation capabilities and a certain external heat supply capacity that match the original thermal power unit to meet the flexibility requirements of the power grid for the power plant and the heat supply demand.

A nuclear island feed water pump 34 is arranged on the pipeline between the condensed water molten salt heat exchanger 3 and the nuclear island steam generator 1.
[0045] The process and purpose of the above technical solution will be introduced below.
[0046] 1) Molten salt heat absorption system
[0047] The high-temperature steam at the outlet of the nuclear island steam generator 1 enters the steam molten salt heat exchanger 2 to heat the molten salt in the high-temperature zone and then becomes condensed water. The condensed water at the outlet of the steam molten salt heat exchanger 2 enters the condensed water molten salt heat exchanger 3 to heat the molten salt in the low-temperature zone, and after being cooled to the water inlet temperature required by the nuclear island steam generator 1, it enters the nuclear island steam generator 1 after being boosted in pressure by the nuclear island feed water pump 34. The low-temperature binary salt in the high-temperature zone cold salt tank 11 enters the steam molten salt heat exchanger 2 after being boosted in pressure by the high-temperature zone cold salt pump 12, is heated and raised in temperature by the high-temperature steam of the nuclear island, and the molten salt at the outlet of the steam molten salt heat exchanger 2 enters the molten salt electric heater 15 to be further heated to the specified temperature and then enters the high-temperature zone hot salt tank 9. The low-temperature ternary salt in the low-temperature zone cold salt tank 26 enters the condensed water molten salt heat exchanger 3 after being boosted in pressure by the low-temperature zone cold salt pump 27, is heated and raised in temperature to the specified temperature by the condensed water and then enters the low-temperature zone hot salt tank 24.
[0048] In this system, by setting up a dual-temperature zone molten salt energy storage system including a high-temperature zone molten salt system and a low-temperature zone molten salt system, the molten salt medium in the high-temperature zone adopts binary salt (for example, it can include sodium nitrate with a mass fraction of 60% and potassium nitrate with a mass fraction of 40%), and the molten salt medium in the low-temperature zone adopts ternary salt (for example, it can include sodium nitrate with a mass fraction of 7%, potassium nitrate with a mass fraction of 53% and sodium nitrite with a mass fraction of 40%). The nuclear island reactor technology adopts a high-temperature gas-cooled reactor, and the outlet of the nuclear island steam generator is high-temperature and high-pressure steam. The molten salt medium in the high-temperature zone adopts binary salt, which has a high maximum operating temperature and excellent stability at high temperatures. After fully utilizing the latent heat of the high-pressure steam, it can be heated to a relatively high temperature by the molten salt electric heater to meet the temperature requirements of the main steam and high-temperature reheat steam of the original thermal power unit. The molten salt medium in the low-temperature zone adopts ternary salt, which has a relatively low melting point and can cool the feed water entering the nuclear island steam generator to the required temperature without solidifying. In summary, by reasonably configuring the capacities of the high-temperature and low-temperature zone cold salt pumps, the power of the molten salt heat absorption system can be matched with the power of the nuclear island reactor.
[0049] 2) Molten salt heat release system
[0050] The feed water in the feed water pipe 4 at the boiler inlet of the original thermal power unit enters the molten salt feed water heat exchanger 33, is heated, and then enters the steam generation system. It passes through the preheater 18, evaporator 17, and superheater 16 in sequence, and is heated by the molten salt into high-temperature superheated steam and enters the original thermal power main steam pipe 21. The low-temperature reheated steam from the cold section pipe 22 of the original thermal power enters the reheater, is heated by the molten salt into high-temperature reheated steam, and then enters the hot section pipe 23 of the original thermal power. The high-temperature binary salt in the high-temperature zone hot salt tank 9 is boosted by the high-temperature zone hot salt pump 10 and enters the steam generation system, which is divided into two paths. One path enters the superheater 16, and the other path enters the reheater 19. The two paths of molten salt are cooled by the steam and then merged into one path, and enter the evaporator 17 and preheater 18 in sequence, and finally are cooled into low-temperature binary salt and enter the high-temperature zone cold salt tank 11. The high-temperature ternary salt in the low-temperature zone hot salt tank 24 is boosted by the low-temperature zone hot salt pump 25 and divided into two paths. One path enters the heating heater 7, heats the heat network return water in the heating primary network return water pipe, and then enters the heating primary network supply pipe to supply heat externally; the other path enters the molten salt feed water heat exchanger 33 to heat part of the feed water from the deaerator to reduce the extraction steam for regeneration; the two paths of molten salt are cooled into low-temperature ternary salt and then merged into one path and enter the low-temperature zone cold salt tank 26.
[0051] In this system, considering the anti-freezing problem of the low-temperature binary salt in the high-temperature zone, the drain temperature at the outlet of the steam-molten salt heat exchanger 2 is relatively high. By setting up the molten salt system in the low-temperature zone, the heating heater 7, and the molten salt feed water heat exchanger 33, the heat of the drain water at the outlet of the steam-molten salt heat exchanger 2 can be fully utilized to heat the heat network return water and part of the feed water from the deaerator, reduce the drain temperature while realizing external heat supply, and reduce the extraction steam for regeneration to improve the power generation capacity of the system. At the same time, the amount of low-temperature molten salt entering the heating heater 7 and the molten salt feed water heat exchanger 33 can be adjusted according to the heating demand and the power demand of the steam turbine generator. By reasonably configuring the capacities of the high-temperature and low-temperature zone hot salt pumps, the power of the molten salt heat release system can be matched with the power of the original thermal power steam turbine and the heating load.
[0052] 3) Steam turbine generator system
[0053] The original thermal power steam turbine generator system remains unchanged. The high-temperature and high-pressure main steam from the molten salt heat release system enters the original thermal power main steam pipe 21, and then enters the high-pressure cylinder of the original steam turbine to drive the steam turbine to generate electricity. The exhaust steam from the high-pressure cylinder of the steam turbine enters the reheater 19 of the molten salt heat release system through the cold section pipe 22 of the original thermal power, is heated into high-temperature reheated steam, and then enters the hot section pipe 23 of the original thermal power, and then enters the intermediate-pressure cylinder of the original thermal power steam turbine to drive the steam turbine to generate electricity. The feed water at the outlet of the original thermal power feed water pump is divided into two paths. One path enters the original thermal power extraction feed water heat exchanger 30 and is heated and raised in temperature by the extraction steam, and the other path enters the molten salt feed water heat exchanger 33 and is heated and raised in temperature by the low-temperature zone molten salt. The two paths of feed water are heated to the same temperature and then enter the molten salt heat release system.
[0054] In this system, the feed water flow rates into the original extraction feed water heat exchanger 30 and the molten salt feed water heat exchanger 33 can be adjusted according to the heat storage capacity of the low-temperature molten salt and the power of the steam turbine generator, and the steam extraction amount of the steam turbine can be reduced to increase the power generation of the steam turbine.
