Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of building water supply energy-saving control, and in particular to a method, device and electronic equipment for controlling pressure stabilization and energy saving at the terminal of pressurized water supply in a building. Background Art

[0002] Existing methods for controlling pressurized water supply in buildings primarily rely on controlling the pressure at the main outlet of the pump group, known as the pump outlet pressure, to achieve pressurized water supply throughout the building. While this constant pressure control causes the pressure at the end of the water supply system to fluctuate with water consumption, this can negatively impact the user experience due to fluctuating water pressure at the end user. Furthermore, when water consumption is low, the excess pressure provided by the water supply system can waste energy.

[0003] Most existing technologies use multiple sources of energy for the PLC, such as adding solar energy and batteries to reduce the energy consumption of the control system; or, based on the water pressure after the pump, optimize the start and frequency of the pump group through PLC control to achieve reduced energy consumption in the water supply system; or, by adding pressure sensors and pressure-stabilizing tanks at the water supply end, through combined pump group control and terminal pressure-stabilizing tank water supply, meet the terminal pressure while reducing energy consumption. Existing technologies mainly focus on the control method of traditional post-pump pressure stabilization, achieving energy conservation and consumption reduction by adjusting and optimizing the start and frequency of the pump. However, by adding a large number of equipment, it increases the difficulty of operation and maintenance management and the difficulty of calculation, and lacks reliability.

[0032] The term "and / or" or "and / or" includes all combinations of any one or more of the associated listed items.

[0033] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a method for controlling pressure stabilization and energy saving at the terminal of a pressurized water supply in a building provided in an embodiment of this specification. The method may include: S110: Obtain the pressure value of the highest end and the pressure value of the second highest end; Optionally, a method for determining the sensor installation point corresponding to the highest end pressure value and / or the second highest farthest end pressure value includes: Get building floor plans; Identifying locations of all terminal water points based on the building floor plan; Based on the locations of all the terminal water use points, respectively determine the horizontal pipe length from each terminal water use point location to the water supply riser; The Darcy friction coefficient is matched based on the pipe type, and the pressure loss value of each end water point is determined based on the horizontal pipe length from the end water point to the water supply riser. The end water point position corresponding to the maximum pressure loss value is used as the sensor installation point.

[0034] In the specific implementation of this specification, Figure 2 As shown, the water pool 1 is connected to the pump group 2, the pump group 2 is respectively connected to the pump rear pressure sensor 4 and the total water meter 5, the pump rear pressure sensor 4 is connected to the control system 3, the control system 3 is respectively connected to the highest end pressure sensor 10 and the second highest farthest end pressure sensor 11, the total water meter 5 is respectively connected to the gate valve 6, the pressure reducing valve 7, the electric valve 8, the flow meter 9, the highest end pressure sensor 10, and the second highest farthest end pressure sensor 11, the gate valve 6 is respectively connected to the pressure reducing valve 7, the highest end pressure sensor 10, and the second highest farthest end pressure sensor 11, the pressure reducing valve 7 is connected to the electric valve 8, and the electric valve 8 is connected to the flow meter 9.

[0035] The pressure loss value at each terminal water use point is determined based on the horizontal pipe length from each terminal water use point to the water supply riser. That is, the pressure loss at each terminal point is calculated according to the formula ΔP = f×(L / D)×(ρv² / 2), where ΔP is the pressure loss value at the terminal water use point, f is the Darcy friction coefficient, L is the horizontal pipe length, D is the pipe diameter (obtained from the construction drawing database), v is the real-time flow velocity (collected by flow meter 9), and ρ is the water density.

[0036] S120: Determine whether the highest end pressure value or the second highest end pressure value satisfies a preset condition; In the specific implementation of this specification, it is to determine whether the pressure values transmitted by the highest end pressure sensor 10 and the second highest and farthest end pressure sensor 11 are missing or erroneous.

[0037] S130: When the highest end pressure value or the second highest end pressure value satisfies the preset condition, the highest end pressure value and the second highest end pressure value are compared, and the smaller value is selected as the most unfavorable control point; S140: The terminal pressure of the most unfavorable control point is controlled within a preset threshold value by regulating the pump group, thereby achieving pressure stabilization and energy-saving control at the terminal of the building's pressurized water supply.

[0038] Optionally, the preset threshold is 0.1MPa~0.15MPa.

[0039] Optionally, the S140 includes: When the terminal pressure of the most unfavorable control point is lower than the preset threshold, the operating frequency of the pump group is increased and / or the number of water pumps in the pump group is increased.

[0040] Optionally, the S140 further includes: When the terminal pressure of the most unfavorable control point is higher than the preset threshold, the operating frequency of the pump group is reduced and / or the number of water pumps of the pump group is reduced or stopped.

[0041] In the specific implementation of this specification, when the pressure falls below 0.1 MPa, the inverter output frequency is gradually increased. If the pressure is still insufficient even after the frequency reaches the upper limit, an additional water pump is started according to the first-in-first-out principle. When the pressure exceeds 0.15 MPa, the inverter output frequency is gradually reduced. If the pressure still exceeds the limit even after the frequency drops to the lower limit, a water pump is stopped according to the first-in-first-out principle. It is worth noting that the frequency reduction adjustment rate needs to be limited to a preset range to avoid water hammer.

[0042] Optionally, also include: Get the water outlet pressure value after the pump; When the highest terminal pressure value or the second highest farthest terminal pressure value does not meet the preset conditions, the pump group is regulated based on the water outlet pressure value after the pump to achieve pressure stabilization and energy-saving control of the building pressurized water supply terminal.

[0043] Optionally, also include: When the terminal pressure of the most unfavorable control point is higher than and / or lower than the preset threshold value and exceeds a preset time, the sound and light alarm is triggered.

[0044] In the specific embodiment of this specification, when the pressure after the pump exceeds the upper pressure limit, the control system opens the pressure reducing valve 7 to quickly release the pressure. Of course, when the terminal pressure of the most unfavorable control point is higher and / or lower than the preset threshold value and exceeds the preset time, the electric valve 8 is closed and the sound and light alarm is triggered.

[0045] Through the building pressurized storage and water supply test platform to simulate user water use experiments, the energy consumption difference between the pump outlet constant pressure and terminal pressure stabilization control methods was compared. In combination with the actual pilot project, the water consumption data of a residential area on a certain day was used to design the experiment. The water consumption curve is as follows Figure 3 shown.

[0046] The test consists of two parts: the pump outlet constant pressure test and the terminal pressure stabilization test. The specific pressure control comparison is shown in Table 1.

[0047] Table 1 Pressure control comparison table from Figure 4 From the pressure fluctuation law of the most unfavorable point at different times, it can be seen that the pressure fluctuation of the most unfavorable point in the two working conditions of constant pressure at the pump outlet changes greatly with the water use law. The greater the pump outlet pressure, the greater the pressure fluctuation at the most unfavorable point, and under low flow conditions, the terminal pressure at the most unfavorable point is greater, which is related to the reduction of head loss in the water supply system; most of the time when the pump outlet constant pressure is 0.35MPa, the pressure at the most unfavorable point exceeds 0.20MPa, which is higher than the design standard, and the pressure fluctuation range is 0.15MPa~0.25MPa, with a pressure fluctuation difference of 0.10MPa, while the pressure fluctuation range under the working condition of constant pressure at the pump outlet is 0.30MPa, with a pressure fluctuation difference of 0.15MPa~0.20MPa, and a pressure fluctuation difference of 0.5MPa, which is nearly half of the pressure fluctuation difference under the working condition of 0.35MPa; under the two working conditions of terminal pressure stabilization, the terminal pressure is stabilized by adjusting and controlling the pump outlet pressure, and the overall terminal pressure is relatively stable with changes in water use law. Figure 4By comparing the average pressure at the most unfavorable point and the minimum pressure at the most unfavorable point, it can be seen that under the condition of a constant pressure of 0.35 MPa at the pump outlet, the average pressure at the most unfavorable point is 0.217 MPa, which is 0.2 MPa higher than the design standard. Pressure reduction measures need to be taken, which will cause energy waste. The average pressure at the pump outlet constant pressure of 0.35 MPa is 0.038 MPa higher than the average pressure at the pump outlet constant pressure of 0.30 MPa. However, the minimum pressure values of the most unfavorable points under the two conditions of constant pressure at the pump outlet are relatively close, which are 0.159 MPa and 0.151 MPa respectively. The pump outlet constant pressure of 0.50 MPa is slightly higher than the pump outlet constant pressure of 0.45 MPa by 0.008 MPa. The terminal steady pressure condition is controlled at 0.15 MPa, and the minimum pressure is 0.141 MPa. The terminal steady pressure condition is controlled at 0.11 MPa, and the minimum pressure is 0.103 MPa, which meets the design standard requirement of 0.1 MPa.

[0048] from Figure 5 From the water pump frequency variation pattern, it can be seen that the water pump frequency of the four working conditions is consistent with the water use pattern, and the operating frequencies of the water pumps in different working conditions are as follows: pump outlet constant pressure 0.35MPa, pump outlet constant pressure 0.30MPa, terminal steady pressure 0.15MPa, terminal steady pressure 0.11MPa; the difference in water pump operating frequency is greater during low-peak water use periods (0:00~6:00 and 10:00~18:00), and smaller during peak water use periods (6:00~9:00 and 19:00~22:00). Figure 5 The variation pattern of the pump outlet pressure shows that the pump outlet pressure fluctuations are relatively large in the two working conditions of terminal pressure stabilization. The pump outlet pressure fluctuation range of the working condition of terminal pressure stabilization of 0.11 MPa is 0.22 MPa~0.25 MPa, and the pressure difference is 0.03 MPa; the pump outlet pressure fluctuation range of the working condition of terminal pressure stabilization of 0.15 MPa is 0.25 MPa~0.30 MPa, and the pressure difference is 0.05 MPa. The pressure value of the terminal pressure stabilization of 0.15 MPa is greater than 0.11 MPa. Comparing the pump outlet pressure fluctuation error with the pressure fluctuation error at the most unfavorable point, it is found that the pump outlet pressure fluctuation error of the working condition of terminal pressure stabilization of 0.15 MPa is consistent with the pressure fluctuation error at the most unfavorable point of the working condition of constant pressure of 0.30 MPa, both of which are 0.05 MPa.

[0049] from Figure 6 From the time variation of comprehensive efficiency, it can be seen that the time variation rules of comprehensive efficiency of the four working conditions are roughly the same, which is also consistent with the change of water use rules, and the comprehensive efficiency of the four working conditions is not much different. Figure 6The temporal variation in medium power shows that the operating power of the four operating conditions closely resembles the water usage patterns of residential users. However, during low-peak water usage periods (00:00-6:00 and 10:00-18:00), the operating power of the four operating conditions ranked from highest to lowest: constant pump outlet pressure of 0.35 MPa, constant pump outlet pressure of 0.30 MPa, terminal regulated pressure of 0.15 MPa, and terminal regulated pressure of 0.11 MPa. During peak water usage periods (6:00-9:00 and 19:00-22:00), the operating power of the four operating conditions varied slightly, which is related to the pumps operating in their high-efficiency range. The operating power of the pumps operating in the 0.15 MPa terminal regulated pressure condition was slightly higher than that of the 0.11 MPa terminal regulated pressure condition, and the higher the water flow rate, the closer the pumps approached their high-efficiency range. This indicates that when the terminal regulated pressure is lower, the pumps operating power decreases when operating in their low-efficiency range.

[0050] from Figure 7 From the 5-minute energy consumption variation patterns under the four working conditions, it can be seen that the variation patterns of the overall energy consumption under the four working conditions are similar to the water consumption patterns of residential users. However, during the low-peak water consumption period (0:00~6:00 and 10:00~18:00), the energy consumption under the two working conditions of constant pressure at the pump outlet is significantly higher than the energy consumption under the two working conditions of terminal pressure stabilization. During the peak water consumption period (6:00~9:00 and 19:00~22:00), the energy consumption under the two working conditions of constant pressure at the pump outlet is slightly higher than the energy consumption under the two working conditions of terminal pressure stabilization. This is mainly due to the change in the operating power of the water pump. Figure 7 The energy consumption per ton of water under different operating conditions shows that the two operating conditions with constant outlet pressure are similar. The energy consumption of the 0.35 MPa outlet constant pressure condition is 0.270 KWh / m3, which is higher than the 0.30 MPa outlet constant pressure condition (0.239 KWh / m3), indicating that higher pump outlet pressure increases energy consumption. The energy consumption per ton of water under the 0.15 MPa terminal pressure stabilization condition (0.221 KWh / m3) is 0.024 KWh / m3 higher than the 0.11 MPa terminal pressure stabilization condition (0.197 KWh / m3). The 0.11 MPa terminal pressure stabilization condition can save 10.86% energy compared to the 0.15 MPa terminal pressure stabilization condition. This shows that, assuming the terminal pressure meets the minimum design pressure, lower terminal pressure leads to greater energy savings. The pump outlet pressure fluctuation error for the 0.15 MPa terminal pressure stabilization condition mentioned above is consistent with the most unfavorable point pressure fluctuation error for the 0.30 MPa constant outlet pressure condition. A comparison of the energy consumption of the two conditions revealed that the energy consumption per ton of water for the 0.11 MPa terminal pressure stabilization condition differed by 0.018 KWh / m³ compared to the 0.30 MPa constant outlet pressure condition, representing a 7.5% energy saving compared to the latter. Although energy savings can be achieved by reducing the pump outlet pressure, seasonal changes in water usage patterns may create a risk of insufficient terminal water supply pressure. This risk of insufficient terminal pressure can be avoided through terminal pressure stabilization, achieving energy savings and consumption reductions.

[0051] In this invention, by dynamically monitoring the pressure values at the end of the highest floor of the building and the end of the longest branch of the horizontal pipeline on the second highest floor, the most unfavorable operating point in the actual pipeline network is selected as the control benchmark, and the terminal water pressure is accurately stabilized in the range of 0.1-0.15 MPa, solving the problem of poor water experience caused by fluctuations in the water outlet pressure of users; at the same time, by eliminating the excess pressure head in the pipeline network, energy waste during low flow periods is significantly reduced. When the terminal sensor fails, this method automatically switches to post-pump pressure control to ensure continuous water supply, and only requires the addition of two terminal pressure sensors, without the need for complex equipment such as a pressure regulating tank. This effectively avoids the operation and maintenance burden and reliability risks caused by the large-scale addition of equipment in the existing technology, and achieves a triple improvement in water comfort, energy economy, and system reliability.
