Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a circulating cooling water system of a compressed air energy storage power station and a working method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In order to promote the realization of the goal, green, clean and renewable energy has been rapidly developed. By the end of 2023, the national installed power generation capacity will be 2.92 billion kilowatts, and non-fossil energy installed capacity will be about 1.57 billion kilowatts, accounting for 53.9%, historically exceeding thermal power installed capacity; among them, wind power and photovoltaic installed capacity will be 1.05 billion kilowatts, accounting for 85.3% of the total new installed capacity of non-fossil energy, and the proportion will continue to increase rapidly in the future. Renewable green electricity such as wind and light is intermittent and unstable, and energy storage technology can effectively solve the impact of large-scale access of intermittent renewable energy to the power grid on the safe and stable operation of the power system, and improve the flexibility and reliability of the power system. Among the many energy storage technologies, compressed air energy storage technology is considered to be one of the most promising large-scale new energy storage technologies. Its outstanding feature is that it can adapt to large-scale and long-term energy storage needs, and it has the advantages of relatively flexible site selection and short construction period. It has been rapidly developed in recent years and has become a project encouraged and supported by national policies.
[0003] At present, most compressed air energy storage power stations are distributed in the northwest of my country (such as Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, etc.) where there are relatively rich wind and solar resources or salt caverns. However, these places are often water-scarce and cold in winter. The circulating water system of the power station requires not only water conservation, but also anti-freezing.
[0004] Due to its operating characteristics, the compressed air energy storage power station can be divided into the compression energy storage stage, the expansion energy release stage and the static idle stage. The amount of circulating water in each stage varies greatly, and the operating time varies. Take a 100MW / 400MW compressed air power station as an example: in the compression energy storage stage, in order to meet the compressor intake conditions and the temperature entering the cavitation, a large amount of circulating water is required, about 6000m 3 / h, and its running time is 6-8 hours; in the expansion and energy release stage, only the expander oil cooler and the generator air cooler are cooled, and the circulating water volume is ~1000m 3 / h, and its operating time is 3-4 hours; in the idle stage, only the cooling water of some small auxiliary equipment such as the compressor cranking cooler and the auxiliary equipment cooler of the whole plant that need to maintain the normal operation of the power station system is used. The circulating water volume is very low, only 200~300m 3 / h, and it runs continuously for 24 hours. Therefore, it is necessary to configure a suitable circulating water system to achieve energy-saving operation on the basis of meeting the system functions.
[0005] In addition, in order to meet the circulating water quality of the compressor and the heat exchange requirements with high-temperature compressed air (above 100°C) without scaling, the circulating water quality is required to be desalted water, and the system needs to adopt a closed circulation and closed cooling tower method, as shown in the Chinese patent with application number 201420217290.0 and the name of a water supply device in a compressed air energy storage system. This results in the cold winter in the north. If a conventional closed circulating water system is used, it is in a static idle stage, and the circulating water volume is low. During the standby period of the cooling tower, it is easy to cause the cooling tower coil system to freeze or block. In severe cases, the closed cooling tower is scrapped, causing the entire power station to be unable to operate. In order to achieve the antifreeze of the cooling tower, antifreeze is also added to the circulating water system, but the addition of this agent will significantly reduce the heat exchange effect of the circulating water. In order to achieve the purpose of heat exchange, it is necessary to increase the amount of cooling water, resulting in high operating costs of the circulating pump. In summer, it is necessary to vent the closed water with added agents, resulting in a large amount of water resources waste and processing fees.
[0006] Therefore, for compressed air energy storage power station equipment and closed cooling towers, in addition to ensuring the heat exchange efficiency of circulating water during high temperatures in summer, it is also necessary to ensure that the system can be antifreeze in winter.

In the summer, when the high-temperature power station is in a static idle period, it is operated separately to save operating energy consumption; in winter, the auxiliary cooling tower 32 is shut down and emptied for anti-freezing.
[0044] 2. A working method of a circulating cooling water system of a compressed air energy storage power station, comprising the following steps: (1) According to the operating characteristics of the compressed air energy storage power station, during the compression energy storage stage, the closed-loop circulating water volume is the largest. The compression circulation pump inlet valve 1-1, the compression circulation pump outlet valve 1-2, the compression inlet valve 10 and the compression return valve 11 are opened, the expansion stage circulation inlet valve 14 and the expansion return valve 15 are closed, and the compression circulation pump 1 and the main cooling tower 31 are started; the compression circulation pump 1 sends the circulating water cooled by the main cooling tower 31 to the compression energy storage equipment cooling equipment through the circulating water supply main pipe 4, and the heated circulating water returns to the main cooling tower 31 through the circulating return water main pipe 21, the circulating return water branch pipe 23, and the cooling tower inlet main pipe 28 to cool down, and the cycle continues. At the same time, the water tank inlet valve 25-2 and the water tank outlet valve 25-3 are opened, the return water regulating valve 24 is adjusted, and the circulating water supply main pipe 4 injects high-temperature return water into the hot water storage tank 25 to replace the cold and hot water in the hot water storage tank 25 and store the residual heat in the circulating return water. When the DCS centralized control system 37 detects that the temperature fed back by the return water main pipe thermometer 22 is consistent with the temperature on the outlet pipe thermometer 25-4, the water tank inlet valve 25-2 can be closed to preserve the high-temperature water in the hot water storage tank 25. During the non-antifreeze period, the water tank inlet valve 25-2 can also be closed to maintain the hot water storage tank 25.
[0045] (2) During the expansion energy release stage, the system closes the compression circulation pump 1, the compression circulation pump water inlet valve 1-1, the compression circulation pump water outlet valve 1-2, the compression water inlet valve 10 and the compression water return valve 11, opens the expansion circulation pump water inlet valve 2-1, the expansion circulation pump water outlet valve 2-2, the expansion stage circulation water inlet valve 14 and the expansion water return valve 15, starts the expansion circulation pump 2 and the part of the main cooling tower 31 that matches the water volume, and the expansion circulation pump 2 sends the circulating water cooled by the main cooling tower 31 to the expansion energy release equipment cooling equipment through the circulating water supply main pipe 4. The heated circulating water returns to the main cooling tower 31 through the circulating water return main pipe 21, the circulating water return branch pipe 23 and the cooling tower water inlet main pipe 28 to cool down, and the cycle continues. At the same time, make sure that the water tank water inlet valve 25-2 remains closed.
[0046] (3) In the static idle stage, the idle circulating pump 3, the idle circulating pump inlet and outlet valve 3-1, the idle circulating pump outlet valve 3-2 and the auxiliary cooling tower 32 are turned on. The idle circulating pump 3 delivers the circulating water cooled by the auxiliary cooling tower 32 to the auxiliary equipment cooling equipment through the circulating water supply main pipe 4. The heated circulating water returns to the auxiliary cooling tower 32 through the idle return pipe 20 and the cooling tower inlet main pipe 28 for cooling. This cycle is repeated to achieve the matching of the circulating water volume and power in each stage, saving energy. When the system enters the compression energy storage stage or the expansion energy release stage, the idle circulating pump 3 and the auxiliary cooling tower 25 are shut down, but the idle inlet valve 18 and the idle return valve 19 are kept open to ensure that the auxiliary equipment of the entire plant is always in cooling operation.
[0047] (4) In winter, when the outdoor temperature is below zero or the system needs antifreeze, the antifreeze circulation pump 26 is turned on, the water tank outlet valve 25-3 is opened, and the hot water in the hot water storage tank 25 enters the cooling tower water inlet main pipe 28 to supplement heat to the closed circulation system; under extreme working conditions or when the idle stage is particularly long, the hot water in the hot water storage tank 25 cannot meet the entire heating demand, and the hot water storage tank electric heater 25-5 is turned on for electric heating supplement.
[0048] (5) In summer, by adjusting the water tank inlet valve 25-2 and the water tank outlet valve 25-3, part of the waste heat of the circulating return water is stored in the hot water storage tank 25, thereby reducing the operating load of the cooling tower; at the same time, during the static idle period, the antifreeze circulation pump 26 is turned on to send cooled circulating water to the circulating return water main pipe 21 to cool the circulating return water, thereby realizing the peak shaving and valley filling function of the cooling tower load.
[0049] (6) For the dry-wet combined cooling tower, in the summer with high temperature, open the wet section water inlet valve 31-1 and the wet section water outlet valve 31-4, close the intermediate isolation valve 31-3, and realize the full load operation of the dry-wet combined cooling tower. In winter, as the outdoor temperature gradually decreases, in order to save water, close the wet sections of the dry-wet combined cooling tower one by one, that is, close the wet section water inlet valve 31-1 and the wet section water outlet valve 31-4 of a single dry-wet combined cooling tower one by one, open the intermediate isolation valve 31-3, stop the spray pump 31-5, and only operate the dry type; at the same time, in order to prevent freezing, vent the wet section coil, gradually close the lower air inlet louver 31-8, reduce the heat taken away by the wet section coil, and avoid freezing and cracking accidents. When the entire dry-wet combined cooling tower is finally closed, ensure that the dry section is the last to exit operation to achieve savings. When the weather is below zero and anti-freezing is required during the idle period, the lower air inlet shutters 31-8 and the top electric roller shutters 31-6 are closed to reduce the air cooling in the cooling tower and achieve the isolation and heat preservation of the tower.
[0050] (7) During the antifreeze period, the high-temperature return water from the idle return pipe 20 is merged into the main cooling tower 31 system, and the auxiliary cooling tower 32 is shut down and emptied, waiting for the next non-antifreeze period to be replenished and started again. Of course, during the non-antifreeze period, the inlet and outlet valves of the hot water storage tank can also be closed, and the circulating return water can be directly fed into the cooling tower to maintain the hot water storage tank system.
