Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention is a calculation method for locally regulating the opening degree of the louver of an indirect air cooling tower, belonging to the technical field of cooling towers. Background Technique
[0002] The main power in China comes from thermal power generation. The circulating water system is essential in thermal power generation. The circulating water takes the heat of the equipment to the cooling tower, and the cooling tower discharges the heat into the air through evaporation and contact. The indirect cooling tower mainly dissipates heat through the heat dissipation tube bundle in contact with the outside air. When the outside temperature is relatively low, many enterprises will close the louvers of the indirect cooling tower to prevent the tube bundle from freezing. However, closing the louvers will cause poor ventilation, resulting in the heat dissipation performance not meeting the requirements and the low cooling performance of the cooling tower.
[0003] The indirect cooling tower cools the water through the indirect contact between air and water, thereby reducing the temperature of the circulating water and enabling the cooling water to be recycled. When the existing indirect cooling tower is used in winter, attention needs to be paid to the problem of icing in winter. In the early winter, the temperature difference between day and night is relatively large. During the day, it is not cold enough, and the indirect cooling tower needs to exchange heat with the outside world. The louvers of the indirect cooling tower need to be opened during the day. At night, the temperature is relatively low, and icing is likely to occur. In the deep winter, the external environment is cold enough. If the louvers of the indirect cooling tower are not completely closed, the windward pipeline is extremely easy to freeze and crack, resulting in the paralysis of the corresponding fan section of the indirect cooling tower. At present, the regulation of the opening degree of the louvers of the indirect cooling tower is mostly based on empirical values, lacking a calculation method for locally regulating the opening degree of the cooling triangular louvers according to different working conditions. Summary of the Invention
[0004] Aiming at the deficiencies of the existing technology, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a calculation method for locally regulating the opening degree of the louver of an indirect air cooling tower to solve the problems in the above background, and to avoid the rupture of the winter pipeline of the indirect cooling tower and improve the heat exchange efficiency of the indirect cooling tower.
[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention is realized through the following technical solutions: A calculation method for locally regulating the opening degree of the louver of an indirect air cooling tower, characterized in that: the local opening degree of the louver is calculated by comprehensively considering influencing factors such as environmental parameters, wall temperature parameters, and unit parameters, including the following steps: S1: Collect data: cooling column wall temperature data, louver opening degree feedback data, fan section return water temperature data, environmental temperature data, environmental wind direction data, inlet tower wind speed data, the number of fan sections n, etc.; S2: According to the cooling column wall temperature data, the fan section is evenly divided into two parts, and each part is used as a local opening degree regulation unit of the louver to participate in the control of the louver opening degree. The lowest wall temperature value Tij in the local opening degree regulation unit of the louver is screened and obtained (i is the fan section number, j = 1 is the front part number of the fan section, j = 2 is the rear part number of the fan section); S3: According to the fan section return water temperature data, determine the return water temperature Twbi of each fan section; S4: Determine the starting value tx of the anti-freezing temperature control according to the ambient temperature Ta; S5: Determine the additional value tyi of the anti-freezing temperature control for the air intake fan section and each fan section according to the ambient wind direction Fx; S6: Determine the additional value tfij of the anti-freezing temperature control according to the wind speed Fsij entering the tower; S7: Assume the initial values: i = 1, j = 1; S8: Iteratively judge in the order of the fan sections whether Tij > tx + tyi + tfij and Twbi > Ea are satisfied, where Ea is the set low limit value of the return water temperature. If so, open the louver by step. Otherwise, close the louver by step. The louver opening range is 0 - 100%; S9: Output the louver opening;
[0006] The local louver opening regulation unit is the smallest unit for controlling the louver opening. By calculating the lowest wall temperature value, the starting value of the anti-freezing temperature control, and the additional value of the anti-freezing temperature control of the local louver opening regulation unit, the calculation and regulation of the louver opening in units of half fan sections are realized, avoiding the difference in the air intake volume caused by the different louver opening degrees at different positions of the cooling tower in the tube bundle, thereby preventing the local temperature of the cooling triangle from being too low and the tube bundle from cracking due to freezing.
[0007] The return water temperature of the fan section is used to predict the cooling effect of the circulating water in advance and adjust the louver opening in time when the circulating water enters the cooling column for cooling, improving the anti-freezing effect.
[0008] The starting value of the anti-freezing temperature control and the additional value of the anti-freezing temperature control are margins affected by environmental factors. When the lowest wall temperature value is greater than the margin, the ice formation risk of the fan section is reduced. When the lowest wall temperature value is lower than the margin, the ice formation risk of the fan section increases.
[0009] The step is the action amplitude of the louver, and its value can be set manually according to actual needs to facilitate the louver action and achieve winter anti-freezing.
[0010] The beneficial effects of the present invention: This calculation method calculates the louver opening based on the cooling column wall temperature data, louver opening feedback data, fan section return water temperature data, ambient temperature data, ambient wind direction data, and wind speed data entering the tower; according to the relationship between the lowest wall temperature value and the starting value of the anti-freezing temperature control and the additional value of the anti-freezing temperature control, the louver is regulated in zones. By adjusting the louver opening, the frequency of tube bundle rupture is reduced, and the loss of manpower and material resources is reduced. Description of the Drawings
