[0002] In a central heating system, as a key node connecting the primary heat network and the user side, the operation control of a heat exchange station directly affects the energy efficiency level and operation stability of the heating system. The secondary side circulating pump, as the main power equipment in the heat exchange station, is responsible for driving hot water to circulate between user buildings to meet the heat load requirements of radiators or floor heating systems at the end of each building. The adjustment of its operating frequency is not only related to the comfort of the building room temperature, but also directly determines the energy consumption level and operation economy of the system.
[0003] In current engineering practices, the control methods of secondary side circulating pumps mainly rely on fixed-frequency operation or simple PID control. Some systems make rough adjustments according to the temperature difference between the supply and return water or the supply water pressure on the secondary side. These traditional control methods have the advantages of simple implementation and rapid response, but generally have the following limitations: lack of the ability to perceive the dynamic changes of the system heat load, unable to accurately adjust the pump speed according to the actual demand at the end, prone to "over-supply" or "under-supply" phenomena, affecting heating comfort; the pump frequency setting depends on manual experience or on-site trial adjustment, lacking a real-time adaptive mechanism, with a fixed adjustment strategy, and difficult to cope with the complex and changeable characteristics of the system operation state; the control target is single, usually only focusing on the supply water temperature or pressure difference, and failing to incorporate the energy efficiency characteristics of the pump into the optimization target, resulting in the long-term operation of the circulating pump in an inefficient working condition and serious energy waste; traditional control is difficult to uniformly consider the two goals of "load matching" and "energy efficiency optimization", and it is difficult to achieve a balance between system adjustment and energy conservation.

[0027] Specifically, the specific heat capacity of the water in the radiator is about 10 times that of its steel shell. Therefore, the steel shell is ignored to establish a dynamic heat transfer model of the radiator. The temperature distribution on the surface of the radiator decreases along the vertical direction and is uniformly distributed in the horizontal direction. Its heat dissipation process can be simplified to one-dimensional heat transfer. The building end heat transfer model includes: ; In the formula, T(t, y) is the temperature distribution of the radiator in the vertical direction, in °C; t is the time, in s; y is the position of the radiator in the vertical direction, Y is the height of the radiator, in m; V is the volume of the radiator, in m³; q(t) is the volume flow rate of the water flowing through the radiator at time t, in m³ / s; K is the heat transfer coefficient of the radiator, in W / (m²·°C); F is the heat exchange area of the radiator, in m²; c is the specific heat capacity of water, in kJ / (kg·°C); ρ is the density of water, in kg / m³; T in is the indoor temperature of the building room, in °C.
[0028] Specifically, the building energy balance model includes the external wall energy balance equation, the internal wall energy balance equation, and the indoor air energy balance equation; among them, For the external wall (including the roof), only one-dimensional heat transfer in the thickness direction is considered.

[0031] To achieve the active optimization control of the circulation pump operation, it is necessary to first obtain the predicted value of the building load. The building terminal load directly determines the required heat and circulation flow of the system. In this invention, multiple linear regression is used to perform short-term prediction on the load, providing a basis for subsequent pump control decisions. Multiple linear regression constructs a linear combination model to fit the relationship between the building heat load at the terminal and a set of influencing factors. Specifically, the building load prediction model includes: ; In the formula, is The predicted heating load of the building at time t, in kW; is The actual heating load of the building at time t, in kW; is The indoor temperature of the building at time t, in °C; is The solar radiation intensity at time t, in W / m²; is The outdoor relative humidity at time t, in %; are the coefficients to be estimated by the model, is the residual term, following a normal distribution; wherein, the calculation formula for the actual heating load of the building includes: ; In the formula, is The actual heating load of the building at time t, in kW; is the specific heat capacity of water, in kJ / (kg·°C); is the density of water, in kg / m 3 ; is the flow rate of the circulation pump, in m 3 / s; is The supply water temperature on the secondary side at time t, in °C; is The return water temperature on the secondary side at time t, in °C.
[0032] The coefficients to be estimated by the model are determined through training with historical operation data. Specifically, the initial building load prediction model is trained with historical operation data. When sufficient data for the current heating season is collected, a new model is continuously regressed using the new data, and the weather forecast data for the next time step and the indoor data for the current time step are input to predict the building load for the next time step. The prediction results will be directly input into the reinforcement learning controller to assist in optimizing the pump speed control strategy.
[0033] Specifically, the circulation pump performance model includes: ; In the formula, is the efficiency of the circulation pump, in %; is the flow rate of the circulation pump, in m 3 / s; is the head of the circulation pump, in m·H2O; is the head coefficient of the circulation pump, is the effective power of the circulation pump, in kW; is the density of water, in kg / m 3 ; is the acceleration due to gravity, 9.81 m / s²; is the shaft power of the circulating pump, with the unit of kW; is the motor efficiency of the circulating pump, with the unit of %; is the electric power of the circulating pump, with the unit of kW; is the ratio of the operating frequency to the rated frequency of the circulating pump.
[0034] Specifically, in order to enable the deep reinforcement learning algorithm to effectively explore and optimize the operating state of the circulating pump, a numerical model of the circulating pump performance curve is established, the head expression of the circulating pump at different flow rates is established, and the response model of the reinforcement learning interaction environment is constructed therefrom. At a certain constant frequency, binomial fitting is used to obtain the flow-head characteristic curve of the circulating pump: ; In actual projects, variable-frequency circulating pumps are generally used for secondary network circulating pumps to reduce transmission and distribution energy consumption. According to the similarity law, when the same circulating pump operates at variable speed, the performance parameters between similar operating points satisfy the following formula: ; where the subscript 0 represents the parameters of the circulating pump at the rated frequency of 50 Hz, and no subscript represents the parameters of the circulating pump at the operating frequency. is the rotational speed of the circulating pump, is the frequency of the circulating pump. is the frequency ratio, representing the ratio of the operating frequency to the rated frequency of the circulating pump. Substituting the proportional relationship of each parameter of the circulating pump in Equation (2) into Equation (1), the flow-head relationship formula of the variable-frequency circulating pump is obtained: ; The effective power of the circulating pump indicates that the total energy obtained by the fluid passing through the pump per unit time is: ; The shaft power of the circulating pump indicates that the mechanical power transmitted by the motor to the shaft of the circulating pump is: ; Using the efficiency of the circulating pump indicates the degree to which the input shaft power is utilized by the fluid as: ; By using binomial fitting, the flow-efficiency characteristic curve of the circulating pump is obtained as: ; In the formula, A, B, and C are the efficiency coefficients of the circulating pump.
[0035] At different frequencies, the flow rate and pressure passing through the operating point are binomially fitted to obtain the system resistance characteristic curve. The system resistance characteristic curve reflects the relationship between the flow resistance in the pipe network and the flow rate, and the resistance pressure drop is proportional to the square of the flow rate: ; In the formula: is the system at the flow rate The required head below, unit: m·H2O; is the system resistance coefficient, comprehensively reflecting the influence of pipeline length, diameter, local resistance, valve opening, etc. on water flow, unit: s 2 / m 5 .
[0036] Specifically, the neural network control model includes a policy network Actor and a value network Critic; among them, the policy network is a policy network, which inputs the current system state and outputs continuous actions, that is, the control frequency of the circulating pump, including two layers of fully connected networks and one layer of rectified linear unit activation network (Rectified Linear Unit, ReLU); the value network includes a value function network, which inputs and actions, and outputs the Q value (i.e., the future cumulative reward estimate) of this action in this state, and is a three-layer structure.
[0037] Reinforcement learning is an intelligent learning method that learns the optimal behavior strategy by interacting with the environment, continuously trying mistakes and accumulating experience. Its basic idea comes from the "reward and punishment mechanism" in psychology: the intelligent agent tries different actions, and gradually improves the behavior strategy according to the rewards or punishments given by the environment to maximize the long-term cumulative return. The embodiment of the present invention adopts the Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG) algorithm to realize the adaptive operating point control of the circulating pump. DDPG is a reinforcement learning method based on the actor-critic structure and is suitable for continuous action space scenarios. The control variable of the circulating pump is the frequency conversion frequency, which is a typical continuous control problem, so it is particularly suitable to adopt DDPG.

[0039] The action of the agent in the neural network control model, that is, how the agent controls the environment. In the embodiments of the present invention, the action is the frequency increment of the circulation pump, specifically including: ; Wherein, is the adjustment increment of the circulation pump frequency at time, in Hz; is the maximum frequency change step allowed for the action, in Hz; is the change amount of the circulation pump frequency.
[0040] The reward function of the agent in the neural network control model will significantly affect the convergence of the deep reinforcement learning and the final control performance, and determine the control optimization goal. The goal of the embodiments of the present invention is to make the circulation pump operate in the high-efficiency area on the premise of matching the terminal heat load. Specifically, the reward function includes: ; Wherein, is the reward function at time, is the actual heat load of the building at time, in kW; is the weighting coefficient.
[0041] Specifically, the neural network control model further includes environmental feedback: the neural network control model receives the frequency , and obtains the flow rate and the head by using the flow rate-head characteristic curve of the circulation pump and the system characteristic curve, and further calculates the effective power ; obtains the operating efficiency of the circulation pump at the current flow rate by using the flow rate-efficiency characteristic curve of the circulation pump, and further calculates the electric power of the circulation pump through the effective power; calculates the return water temperature of the least-utilized user as the building return water temperature and the indoor temperature of the least-utilized user by means of the building terminal radiator model and the least-utilized user of the building through the current flow rate and the supply water temperature , and further calculates the actual heat load of the building and predicts the building heat load at the next moment.
[0042] Specifically, the update strategy of the Actor-Critic structure in the neural network control model is as follows: Initialize the experience pool Replay Buffer, and randomly explore and collect , in each round, sample a training batch from the experience pool and update the Critic network. The goal is to minimize the temporal difference error: ; Wherein, is the loss function of the Critic network; are the parameters to be optimized by the Critic network; is the size of the sampled batch; is the state of the i-th piece of experience data; is the action of the i-th piece of experience data; is the value estimation of the current Critic network for ; value estimation; is the target value of the i-th piece of experience; .
[0043] Wherein, is the immediate reward obtained from the i-th piece of experience; is the discount factor, which controls the influence degree of future rewards; is the next state after executing the action at the i-th step; is the action given by the target Actor network at ; is the value evaluation of the target Critic network for ; value evaluation; are the parameters of the target Actor and target Critic networks respectively.
[0044] Use policy gradient to optimize the Actor network. The goal is to maximize the value given by the Critic network: ; Wherein, is the gradient of the objective function (total expected reward) of the policy network with respect to its parameter ; are the parameters of the Actor network; is the size of the sampled batch; is the value function given by the Critic network; is the gradient of the function with respect to the action a, and is calculated on the action output by the current policy of the Actor network; is the gradient of the action output by the policy network with respect to its parameter; is the policy objective function.
[0045] Specifically, the soft replacement of the target network includes: To ensure stable training, a target network is introduced. It is updated smoothly and iteratively, following the main network slowly to avoid drastic oscillations during the policy update process: ; wherein, are the parameters of the target network; are the parameters of the current main network; is the soft update factor.
[0046] The training of the neural network control model goes through multiple rounds, repeating the sampling - update - soft replacement process. When the average reward rises steadily and the control frequency tends to be reasonable, it indicates that the policy converges. The finally derived Actor network can be used as the control policy to output the frequency output frequency in real - time systems according to the state, for real - time adjustment of the circulating pump.
[0047] The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for adaptively optimizing the characteristics of a circulating pump in a heat exchange station. A neural network model composed of a policy network (Actor) and a value network (Critic) is constructed to control the frequency of the circulating pump in real - time for efficient energy - saving operation. The system state design covers the key parameters of the circulating pump operation, including flow rate, pressure difference, frequency, electric power, supply and return water temperatures, and building predicted heat load, constituting the state vector perceived by the agent at each control step. The control action is set as the adjustment increment of the pump frequency to guide the dynamic adjustment of the operating point of the circulating pump. The reward function combines two objectives: load tracking accuracy and operation efficiency deviation, aiming to guide the system to operate in the efficient range while meeting the heat load demand. The environmental model provides a real - interaction environment by feedbacking various state information based on the flow - head characteristic curve, flow - efficiency characteristic curve, system resistance curve, building terminal model, and building user model of the pump. During the training process, the experience replay mechanism and the temporal difference method are used to update the Critic network, the Actor network is optimized by policy gradient, and at the same time, a target network is introduced for soft replacement to enhance the stability and convergence of the training. When the average reward of the agent tends to be stable and the control behavior is reasonable during the training process, it indicates that the policy converges. The finally trained Actor network can be deployed as an online control policy to output the frequency of the circulating pump according to the real - time state, realizing the efficient and adaptive operation of the system.
