Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of thermal power plant control, and specifically to a bypass control method for a thermal power plant based on a DCS system. Background Art
[0002] The heat storage capacities of different boilers vary. For boilers with stronger heat storage capacity, when the load changes, the adjustment of the main steam pressure can be relatively gentle, and the heat storage of the boiler is utilized to meet short-term load demands and avoid excessive pressure fluctuations; for example, in units using drum boilers, the water volume of the drum is large and the heat storage capacity is strong, and the change rate of the pressure setting can be appropriately reduced during sliding pressure operation.
[0003] When the existing units operate at low load, the main steam pressure setting is still the rated value, seriously deviating from the actual operating conditions, with large throttle of the control valves, reducing the economy of the units; the optimal operating pressure and valve characteristics of the units cannot be obtained through tests, so that a reasonable sliding pressure curve cannot be re-optimized and determined.
[0004] In view of the above technical defects, a solution is now proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0007] As a preferred implementation manner of the present invention, the process of the characteristic analysis is as follows: Collect the floating span of the throttle steam flow of the unit during the floating of the operating load during the operation of the unit. At the same time, obtain the buffer duration between the floating moment of the operating load and the floating moment of the throttle steam flow of the unit during the operation of the unit, and compare the floating span of the throttle steam flow of the unit during the floating of the operating load during the operation of the unit, and the buffer duration between the floating moment of the operating load and the floating moment of the throttle steam flow of the unit during the operation of the unit with the flow floating span threshold and the buffer duration threshold respectively.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, if the floating span of the throttle steam flow of the unit during the floating of the operating load during the operation of the unit exceeds the flow floating span threshold, or the buffer duration between the floating moment of the operating load and the floating moment of the throttle steam flow of the unit during the operation of the unit does not exceed the buffer duration threshold, then mark the operation process of the current unit as a high-impact process, and perform real-time adjustment of the main steam pressure when the unit load floats during the high-impact process; If the floating span of the throttle steam flow of the unit during the floating of the operating load during the operation of the unit does not exceed the flow floating span threshold, and the buffer duration between the floating moment of the operating load and the floating moment of the throttle steam flow of the unit during the operation of the unit exceeds the buffer duration threshold, then mark the operation process of the current unit as a negative-impact process, and perform adaptive adjustment of the main steam pressure when the unit load floats during the high-impact process.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the sliding pressure control process is as follows: Collect the operation data of the unit according to the operation process of the unit, where the operation data is represented as the coal consumption of the unit and the real-time power generation at each operation moment; perform numerical ratio calculation according to the coal consumption and power generation to obtain the coal-to-production ratio; And compare according to the coal-to-production ratio at each operation moment during the operation process to obtain the operation pressure value and valve opening degree corresponding to the operation moment when the coal-to-production ratio exceeds the set threshold, and collect the operation pressure value and valve opening degree at each operation moment according to the floating of the coal-to-production ratio to construct a pressure curve and a valve opening curve.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, according to the analysis of the pressure curve, determine the optimal main steam pressure setting value in different load intervals at each operation moment to form an optimized pressure setting curve; at the same time, perform synchronous analysis according to the pressure setting curve and the valve opening curve, and infer whether the current pressure setting curve can be adapted according to the numerical range of the valve opening curve. If not, perform numerical adjustment on the pressure setting curve and construct a curve with the adjusted value, marked as the actual sliding pressure control curve; send the pressure setting curve and the actual sliding pressure control curve to the administrator terminal together, and the administrator terminal performs sliding pressure control on the unit operation after receiving it.

Those skilled in the art will explicitly and implicitly understand that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.
[0018] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, for the bypass control method of a thermal power plant based on a DCS system, the specific bypass control method process is as follows: Characteristic analysis: Analyze the characteristics of the unit, infer the influence of the current unit operating conditions on the main steam pressure setting through the unit characteristic analysis, perform the influence assessment of the main steam pressure setting to adjust the pressure of the unit, and ensure the high efficiency of the main steam pressure regulation; Sliding pressure control: Obtain the optimal operating pressure and valve characteristics of the unit through tests, and at the same time re-optimize and determine a reasonable sliding pressure curve. The unit operating mode is changed from constant pressure operation to sliding pressure operation, which can reduce throttling losses and improve the economy of the unit while maintaining relatively high parameters, and further save coal and reduce consumption; Control efficiency analysis: Infer whether there is an impact on the operation of the unit through the analysis of efficiency data, and at the same time be able to infer whether the efficiency of the sliding pressure control meets the requirements of pressure regulation according to the real-time energy consumption analysis of the unit, so as to improve the working efficiency of the entire unit; The process of characteristic analysis is as follows: Collect the floating span of the throttle flow of the unit during the floating of the operating load during the operation of the unit, and at the same time obtain the buffer duration between the floating moment of the operating load and the floating moment of the throttle flow of the unit during the operation of the unit, and compare the floating span of the throttle flow of the unit during the floating of the operating load during the operation of the unit and the buffer duration between the floating moment of the operating load and the floating moment of the throttle flow of the unit during the operation of the unit with the flow floating span threshold and the buffer duration threshold respectively: If during the operation of the unit, when the operating load fluctuates, the floating span of the throttle steam flow of the unit exceeds the flow floating span threshold, or when the operating load fluctuates during the operation of the unit, the buffer duration between the moment of the operating load fluctuation and the moment of the throttle steam flow fluctuation of the unit does not exceed the buffer duration threshold, it is inferred that the operating characteristics of the unit are affected by high load. Mark the operating process of the current unit as a high-impact process, and perform real-time adjustment of the main steam pressure when the unit load fluctuates during the high-impact process; If during the operation of the unit, when the operating load fluctuates, the floating span of the throttle steam flow of the unit does not exceed the flow floating span threshold, and when the operating load fluctuates during the operation of the unit, the buffer duration between the moment of the operating load fluctuation and the moment of the throttle steam flow fluctuation of the unit exceeds the buffer duration threshold, it is inferred that the operating characteristics of the unit are affected by low load. Mark the operating process of the current unit as a negative-impact process, and perform adaptive adjustment of the main steam pressure when the unit load fluctuates during the high-impact process; among them, real-time adjustment means that after the load fluctuates, real-time adjustment is carried out according to the set adjustment span, and adaptive adjustment is gradually carried out according to the real-time operating state after the load fluctuates; Please refer to Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the sliding pressure control process is as follows: Collect the unit operation data according to the unit operation process, where the operation data is represented as the coal consumption and real-time power generation of the unit at each operation moment; calculate the numerical ratio according to the coal consumption and power generation to obtain the coal-to-production ratio. When calculating the ratio of coal consumption to power generation, only the numerical values are calculated, regardless of the influence of inconsistent units; And compare the coal-to-production ratio at each operation moment during the operation process to obtain the corresponding operation pressure value and valve opening degree at the operation moment when the coal-to-production ratio exceeds the set threshold. Collect the operation pressure value and valve opening degree at each operation moment according to the fluctuation of the coal-to-production ratio, and construct a pressure curve and a valve opening curve; According to the analysis of the pressure curve, determine the optimal main steam pressure setting value in different load intervals at each operation moment to form an optimized pressure setting curve; at the same time, perform synchronous analysis according to the pressure setting curve and the valve opening curve, and infer whether the current pressure setting curve can be adapted according to the numerical range of the valve opening curve. If it is not adapted, adjust the numerical value of the pressure setting curve and construct a curve with the adjusted numerical value, which is marked as the actual sliding pressure control curve; send the pressure setting curve and the actual sliding pressure control curve to the administrator terminal together, and the administrator terminal performs sliding pressure control on the unit operation after receiving it; The control efficiency analysis process is as follows: Obtain the span value of the decrease in the average consumption-production ratio before and after the implementation of sliding pressure control during the operation of the unit. At the same time, obtain the increase span of the peak power generation corresponding to the coal consumption per unit volume after the sliding pressure control during the operation of the unit. Compare the span value of the decrease in the average consumption-production ratio before and after the implementation of sliding pressure control during the operation of the unit and the increase span of the peak power generation corresponding to the coal consumption per unit volume after the sliding pressure control during the operation of the unit with the average decrease span threshold and the peak increase span threshold respectively: If the span value of the decrease in the average consumption-production ratio before and after the implementation of sliding pressure control during the operation of the unit does not exceed the average decrease span threshold, or the increase span of the peak power generation corresponding to the coal consumption per unit volume after the sliding pressure control during the operation of the unit does not exceed the peak increase span threshold, it is inferred that the sliding pressure control efficiency during the operation of the unit is unqualified, and the current actual sliding pressure control curve is lowered; If the span value of the decrease in the average consumption-production ratio before and after the implementation of sliding pressure control during the operation of the unit exceeds the average decrease span threshold, and the increase span of the peak power generation corresponding to the coal consumption per unit volume after the sliding pressure control during the operation of the unit exceeds the peak increase span threshold, it is inferred that the sliding pressure control efficiency during the operation of the unit is qualified, and the current actual sliding pressure control curve is gradually adjusted towards the pressure setting curve, and the adjustment stops when the real-time operating consumption-production ratio increases; When the present invention is in use, characteristic analysis: conduct characteristic analysis on the unit, infer the influence of the current unit operating conditions on the main steam pressure setting according to the unit characteristic analysis, and conduct pressure adjustment of the unit through the influence evaluation of the main steam pressure setting; sliding pressure control: obtain the optimal operating pressure and valve characteristics of the unit through experiments, and at the same time re-optimize and determine a reasonable sliding pressure curve, and change the unit operating mode from constant pressure operation to sliding pressure operation; control efficiency analysis: infer whether there is an influence on the operation of the unit through efficiency data analysis, and at the same time be able to infer whether the efficiency of the sliding pressure control meets the requirements of pressure regulation according to the real-time energy consumption analysis of the unit.
