Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of power generation units, and in particular to a thermal system of a coal-fired power unit and a control method, device, computer equipment, computer-readable storage medium, and computer program product thereof. Background Art

[0002] Power generation from a coal-fired power plant is a complex energy conversion process involving the interconversion of multiple energy forms. The steam turbine in a coal-fired power plant's thermal system is a crucial component of this energy conversion process, and its operating efficiency and performance directly impact the overall efficiency and performance of the unit. In the boiler, coal is fed into the combustion chamber and burned, releasing a large amount of heat energy. Condensate in the boiler is heated and evaporated by the heating surfaces, forming high-temperature, high-pressure steam. After entering the turbine pressure cylinder, the steam expands on each stage of the blades, driving their rotation and converting the thermal energy into mechanical energy. This mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy by a generator and then transmitted to the outside world via transmission lines, achieving thermal-to-electrical conversion within the turbine pressure cylinder.

[0003] When traditional units are built, the goal is usually to generate more power, so the rated operating conditions are usually used as the design benchmark for the high-pressure cylinder of the turbine. However, with the development of new energy and the construction of new power systems, coal-fired power has gradually shifted to a regulatory and guaranteed power source. Ultra-supercritical units with large steam inlet volume generally operate at medium and low loads.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0052] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application more clear, the following further describes this application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0053] The turbine pressure cylinder can be divided into high-pressure, intermediate-pressure, and low-pressure cylinders based on the steam inlet parameters. The high-pressure cylinder is located at the front of the turbine and is the initial stage for the main steam to enter the turbine pressure cylinder. The exhaust steam from the high-pressure cylinder enters the boiler reheater for heating before entering the intermediate-pressure cylinder to perform work. The exhaust steam from the intermediate-pressure cylinder enters the low-pressure cylinder. The exhaust steam from the low-pressure cylinder enters the condenser (the air-cooled island for air-cooled units) to condense into water before entering the heat recovery system and returning to the boiler.

[0054] Since the thermal system of traditional coal-fired power units is usually built with the goal of increasing power generation, the rated operating conditions are usually used as the design benchmark for the turbine pressure cylinder. That is, the high-pressure cylinder in a traditional steam turbine can only maintain efficient energy conversion under rated operating conditions. However, most units are currently operating at medium and low loads. Since the main steam parameters generated by the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit are different from the steam inlet volume, the steam inlet volume of the turbine pressure cylinder does not match the design value, which will lead to low thermal-electricity conversion efficiency of the turbine pressure cylinder.

[0055] In order to improve the thermal-electric conversion efficiency of the turbine pressure cylinder, such as Figure 1 As shown, the present application provides a thermal system 10 of a coal-fired power plant, which includes a boiler 11 , a pressure regulating device 12 and a steam turbine pressure cylinder 13 .

[0056] The pressure regulating device 12 is used to increase the steam pressure. The pressure regulating device 12 can be an active regulating turbine or a pre-mounted steam turbine, which is not limited here.

[0057] The first gas outlet 111 of the boiler 11 is communicated with the steam turbine pressure cylinder 13 through the pressure regulating device 12 , and the second gas outlet 112 of the boiler 11 is communicated with the steam turbine pressure cylinder 13 .

[0058] In this way, the exhaust steam in the boiler 11 can flow into the pressure regulating device 12 and the steam turbine pressure cylinder 13 through the first gas outlet 111 ; and the exhaust steam in the boiler 11 can flow into the steam turbine pressure cylinder 13 through the second gas outlet 112 .

[0059] The main steam in the boiler 11 flows into the pressure regulating device 12 through the first air outlet 111 of the boiler 11. The main steam is pressurized in the pressure regulating device 12 to form pressurized steam, which flows into the steam turbine pressure cylinder 13. The reheated steam in the boiler 11 flows into the steam turbine pressure cylinder 13 through the second air outlet 112 of the boiler 11. The steam turbine pressure cylinder 13 uses the pressurized steam and the reheated steam to perform thermoelectric conversion.

[0060] In this way, the main steam in the boiler 11 can be pressure-regulated by the pressure regulating device 12 before entering the turbine pressure cylinder 13. When the operating load of the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit is low, the main steam can be pressurized by the pressure regulating device 12, thereby increasing the steam inlet pressure of the turbine pressure cylinder 13, and to a certain extent improving the thermoelectric conversion efficiency of the turbine pressure cylinder 13 in the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit.

[0061] It is understandable that the operating load of a coal-fired power unit's thermal system is matched to the heat and power demand of its corresponding suppliers (e.g., residential users, industrial plant users, etc.). However, this heat and power demand is not fixed. Therefore, the coal-fired power unit's thermal system may operate in low-load, medium-load, or high-load conditions. However, when the load demand of the coal-fired power unit's thermal system meets the preset low-load condition, that is, when the coal-fired power unit's thermal system is in low-load conditions, the steam inlet to the turbine pressure cylinder in the coal-fired power unit's thermal system may not match the design value, resulting in low heat-to-electricity conversion efficiency in the turbine pressure cylinder. When the load demand of the coal-fired power unit's thermal system does not meet the preset low-load condition, that is, when the coal-fired power unit's thermal system is in high-load or medium-load conditions, the coal-fired power unit's thermal system may be unable to meet the load demand, resulting in the coal-fired power unit's thermal system being unable to meet the heat and power supply demand.

[0062] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 2The thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit further includes: a first valve 14 , a second valve 15 and a third valve 16 .

[0063] The first valve 14 is arranged between the first air outlet 111 of the boiler 11 and the first air inlet 131 of the turbine pressure cylinder 13, and is used to control the opening and closing of the passage between the first air outlet 111 of the boiler 11 and the first air inlet 131 of the turbine pressure cylinder 13; the second valve 15 is arranged between the first steam exhaust port 121 of the pressure regulating device 12 and the first air inlet 131 of the turbine pressure cylinder 13, and is used to control the opening and closing of the passage between the first steam exhaust port 121 of the pressure regulating device 12 and the first air inlet 131 of the turbine pressure cylinder 13; the third valve 16 is arranged between the first steam exhaust port 121 of the pressure regulating device 12 and the second air inlet 132 of the turbine pressure cylinder 13, and is used to control the opening and closing of the passage between the first steam exhaust port 121 of the pressure regulating device 12 and the second air inlet 132 of the turbine pressure cylinder 13.

[0064] Among them, the first valve 14, the second valve 15 and the third valve 16 can be stop valves, specifically, they have only two states: open and closed. The first valve 14, the second valve 15 and the third valve 16 can also be flow valves, specifically, they can achieve two states: open and closed by adjusting the opening of the flow valve (for example, when the opening of the flow valve is the maximum, the open state is achieved, and when the opening of the flow valve is the minimum, the closed state is achieved).

[0065] When the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power generation unit meets the preset low-load condition, the first valve 14 and the third valve 16 are in the closed state, and the second valve 15 is in the open state. When the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power generation unit does not meet the preset low-load condition, the first valve 14 and the third valve 16 are in the open state, and the second valve 15 is in the closed state.

[0066] The load demand status corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power plant is used to represent the load level corresponding to the heat and power demand of the supplier of the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power plant under real-time conditions. When the load level represented by the load demand status corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power plant is less than a preset load level threshold, it is determined that the load demand status corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power plant meets the preset low load condition. The preset load level threshold can be set by the user as needed, or it can correspond to the rated load level corresponding to the steam turbine pressure cylinder 13. Specifically, the preset load level threshold is less than the rated load level corresponding to the steam turbine pressure cylinder 13. For example, the preset load level threshold can be 70%, or other values, which are not limited here.

[0067] When the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit meets the preset low-load condition, all the main steam in the boiler 11 flows into the pressure regulating device 12, and all the main steam is pressurized in the pressure regulating device 12 to form pressurized steam, which flows into the first air inlet 131 of the turbine pressure cylinder 13 through the second valve 15.

[0068] In this way, when the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit is in a low-load operating condition, the pressure of the main steam can be increased to form boosted steam, so that the pressure of the steam entering the turbine pressure cylinder 13 is as high as possible, thereby improving the thermoelectric conversion efficiency of the turbine pressure cylinder 13 to a certain extent.

[0069] When the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit does not meet the preset low-load condition, a portion of the main steam in the boiler 11 flows into the pressure regulating device 12, and a portion of the main steam is pressurized in the pressure regulating device 12 to form pressurized steam, which flows into the second air inlet 132 of the turbine pressure cylinder 13 through the third valve 16, while another portion of the main steam flows into the first air inlet 131 of the turbine pressure cylinder 13 through the first valve 14.

[0070] In this way, when the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is in a high-load operating condition, steam can be added to the turbine pressure cylinder 13 through the pressure regulating device 12, thereby ensuring the steam intake in the turbine pressure cylinder 13, and thus enabling the turbine pressure cylinder 13 to meet the thermal power supply requirements, that is, enabling the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit to meet the thermal power supply requirements.

[0071] In one embodiment, the steam turbine pressure cylinder 13 includes a high-pressure cylinder and multiple groups of medium- and low-pressure cylinders connected in sequence, each group of medium- and low-pressure cylinders includes one medium-pressure cylinder and two low-pressure cylinders; the ratio between the multiple groups of medium- and low-pressure cylinders corresponds to the historical load demand distribution information of the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit corresponding to the environment in which it is located.

[0072] The historical load demand distribution information represents the distribution of load demand levels for the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit at a given moment in time. The ratios between multiple groups of intermediate and low-pressure cylinders represent the steam inlet information ratios between these groups. The ratios between multiple groups of intermediate and low-pressure cylinders include at least one of the intake volume ratio, the load ratio, and the flow area ratio. The sum of all the ratios between these groups is 1.

[0073] Take the example of setting up two sets of medium and low pressure cylinders, refer to Figure 3The turbine pressure cylinder 13 includes a high-pressure cylinder 1301, a first intermediate-pressure cylinder 1302, a second intermediate-pressure cylinder 1303, a first low-pressure cylinder 1304, a second low-pressure cylinder 1305, a third low-pressure cylinder 1306 and a fourth low-pressure cylinder 1307. The air inlet of the first intermediate-pressure cylinder 1302 is connected to the air inlet of the second intermediate-pressure cylinder 1303, the air inlet of the first intermediate-pressure cylinder 1302 is connected to the air inlet of the first low-pressure cylinder 1304 and the air inlet of the second low-pressure cylinder 1305 respectively, the air inlet of the second intermediate-pressure cylinder 1303 is connected to the air inlet of the third low-pressure cylinder 1306 and the air inlet of the third low-pressure cylinder 1307 respectively. The air inlet of the fourth low-pressure cylinder 1307 is connected, the first valve 14 is arranged between the first air outlet of the boiler 11 and the first air inlet 131 of the high-pressure cylinder 1301, the second valve 15 is arranged between the first steam exhaust port 121 of the pressure regulating device 12 and the first air inlet 131 of the high-pressure cylinder 1301, the third valve 16 is arranged between the first steam exhaust port 121 of the pressure regulating device 12 and the second air inlet 132 of the high-pressure cylinder 1301, and the second air inlet of the boiler 11 is respectively connected to the air inlets of the first intermediate-pressure cylinder 1302 and the second intermediate-pressure cylinder 1303.

[0074] Among them, the ratio between the first intermediate pressure cylinder 1302 and the second intermediate pressure cylinder 1303, the ratio between the first low pressure cylinder 1304 and the third low pressure cylinder 1306, and the ratio between the second low pressure cylinder 1305 and the fourth low pressure cylinder 1307 are equal. For example, the ratio between the above three groups of pressure cylinders can be 5:5, 4:6, or 7:3, etc., which is not limited here.

[0075] When the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit meets the preset low-load condition, all the main steam in the boiler 11 flows into the pressure regulating device 12, all the main steam is pressurized in the pressure regulating device 12 to form pressurized steam, and the pressurized steam flows into the first air inlet 131 of the high-pressure cylinder 1301 through the second valve 15. The high-pressure cylinder 1301 uses the pressurized steam for thermoelectric conversion; when the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit does not meet the preset low-load condition, part of the main steam in the boiler 11 flows into the pressure regulating device 12, part of the main steam is pressurized in the pressure regulating device 12 to form pressurized steam, and the pressurized steam flows into the second air inlet 132 of the high-pressure cylinder 1301 through the third valve 16, while the other part of the main steam flows into the first air inlet 131 of the turbine pressure cylinder 13 through the first valve 14, and the high-pressure cylinder 1301 uses the pressurized steam and part of the main steam for thermoelectric conversion.

[0076] The reheated steam in the boiler 11 flows into the first intermediate pressure cylinder 1302, the second intermediate pressure cylinder 1303, the first low pressure cylinder 1304, the second low pressure cylinder 1305, the third low pressure cylinder 1306 and the fourth low pressure cylinder 1307 through the second air outlet of the boiler 11. The first intermediate pressure cylinder 1302, the second intermediate pressure cylinder 1303, the first low pressure cylinder 1304, the second low pressure cylinder 1305, the third low pressure cylinder 1306 and the fourth low pressure cylinder 1307 use the reheated steam to perform thermoelectric conversion.

[0077] Among them, the high-pressure cylinder 1301, the first intermediate-pressure cylinder 1302, the second intermediate-pressure cylinder 1303, the first low-pressure cylinder 1304, the second low-pressure cylinder 1305, the third low-pressure cylinder 1306 and the fourth low-pressure cylinder 1307 are axially connected in sequence.

[0078] In this way, the high-pressure cylinder 1301, the first intermediate-pressure cylinder 1302, the second intermediate-pressure cylinder 1303, the first low-pressure cylinder 1304, the second low-pressure cylinder 1305, the third low-pressure cylinder 1306 and the fourth low-pressure cylinder 1307 can realize the conversion between thermal energy and mechanical energy through sequential axial connection, and then the conducted mechanical energy can be converted into electrical energy through the generator.

[0079] In one embodiment, the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power generation unit further includes: a plurality of fourth valves.

[0080] Multiple fourth valves are respectively arranged between the second air outlet 112 of the boiler 11 and the intermediate pressure cylinders in the multiple groups of intermediate and low pressure cylinders (such as the first intermediate pressure cylinder 1302 and the second intermediate pressure cylinder 1303 mentioned above), and are used to adjust the opening of the passage between the second air outlet 112 of the boiler 11 and the intermediate pressure cylinders.

[0081] The greater the valve opening of the fourth valve is, the greater the opening of the passage between the second gas outlet 112 of the boiler 11 and the intermediate pressure cylinder is.

[0082] In one embodiment, the number of the fourth valves is consistent with the number of the groups of intermediate and low pressure cylinders, and each fourth valve is disposed between the intermediate pressure cylinder in each group of intermediate and low pressure cylinders and the second gas outlet 112 of the boiler 11 .

[0083] Take the example of setting up two sets of medium and low pressure cylinders, refer to Figure 4 A fourth valve 17 is provided between the second air outlet 112 of the boiler 11 and the first intermediate pressure cylinder 1302, for adjusting the opening of the passage between the second air outlet 112 of the boiler 11 and the first intermediate pressure cylinder 1302; another fourth valve 17 is provided between the second air outlet 112 of the boiler 11 and the second intermediate pressure cylinder 1303, for adjusting the opening of the passage between the second air outlet 112 of the boiler 11 and the second intermediate pressure cylinder 1303.

[0084] In this way, the steam intake amount of the first intermediate pressure cylinder 1302 and the second intermediate pressure cylinder 1303 can be adjusted through the fourth valve 17, and then the steam intake amount of the first low pressure cylinder 1304 and the second low pressure cylinder 1305 connected to the first intermediate pressure cylinder 1302 can be adjusted, as well as the steam intake amount of the third low pressure cylinder 1306 and the fourth low pressure cylinder 1307 connected to the second intermediate pressure cylinder 1303 can be adjusted.

[0085] In one embodiment, the ratio between the steam turbine pressure cylinder 13 and the pressure regulating device 12 corresponds to the load demand condition of the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit.

[0086] Among them, the ratio between the turbine pressure cylinder 13 and the pressure regulating device 12 includes at least one of the intake volume ratio between the turbine pressure cylinder 13 and the pressure regulating device 12, the load ratio between the turbine pressure cylinder 13 and the pressure regulating device 12, and the flow area ratio between the turbine pressure cylinder 13 and the pressure regulating device 12.

[0087] It is understandable that when the load demand corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit does not meet the preset low-load conditions, there is a risk that the turbine pressure cylinder 13 cannot meet the thermal power supply requirements. At this time, the turbine pressure cylinder 13 can operate at the rated operating condition (maximum operating condition), and the pressure regulating device 12 has a portion of the main steam allocation and supplementary steam for the turbine pressure cylinder 13. Then, although the turbine pressure cylinder 13 can meet the thermal power supply requirements, the thermal power conversion efficiency of the turbine pressure cylinder 13 may still be low.

[0088] In one embodiment, the steam intake of the high-pressure cylinder 1301 in the steam turbine pressure cylinder 13 is greater than the steam intake of the pressure regulating device 12 .

[0089] In this way, the steam intake of the turbine pressure cylinder 13 can be increased to a certain extent. However, when the difference between the steam intake of the high-pressure cylinder 1301 and the steam intake of the pressure regulating device 12 is not large, the thermoelectric conversion efficiency of the turbine pressure cylinder 13 is still low.

[0090] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 5 The thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit also includes a fifth valve 18; the fifth valve 18 is arranged between the first gas outlet 111 of the boiler 11 and the air inlet of the pressure regulating device 12, and is used to control the opening of the passage between the first gas outlet 111 of the boiler 11 and the air inlet of the pressure regulating device 12.

[0091] Among them, when the load level represented by the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit is not lower than the load level corresponding to the rated operating condition of the turbine pressure cylinder 13, the turbine pressure cylinder 13 is in the rated operating condition, and the valve opening of the fifth valve 18 corresponds to the load level difference value. The load level difference value is the difference between the load level represented by the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit and the load level corresponding to the rated operating condition of the turbine pressure cylinder 13. The higher the load level difference value, the greater the valve opening of the fifth valve 18.

[0092] In this way, it is possible to ensure both high thermoelectric conversion efficiency of the steam turbine pressure cylinder 13 and satisfy the thermoelectric supply requirements.

[0093] In one embodiment, the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit further includes a first generator, and the pressure regulating device 12 is connected to the first generator. When the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit does not meet the preset low-load condition, the first generator uses the heat loss between the pressure regulating device 12 and the turbine pressure cylinder 13 to perform thermoelectric conversion.

[0094] In this way, the heat loss between the pressure regulating device 12 and the turbine pressure cylinder 13 can be utilized through the first generator and converted into electrical energy, which can reduce the energy loss of the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit to a certain extent.

[0095] In one embodiment, the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit further includes a high-pressure heating device, which is connected to the second steam exhaust port 122 of the pressure regulating device 12 .

[0096] Among them, when the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit does not meet the preset low-load condition, the high-pressure heating device is in the open state.

[0097] In this way, when the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit does not meet the preset low-load condition, the exhaust steam temperature of the pressure regulating device 12 is low, and the temperature of the mixed water formed by mixing the condensate and the exhaust steam of the pressure regulating device 12 is low. Therefore, the above-mentioned mixed water is heated by the high-pressure heating device to ensure the return water temperature of the boiler 11.

[0098] In one embodiment, the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit further includes a condenser, which is connected to the third exhaust port 123 of the pressure regulating device 12 .

[0099] When the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit is in an accident condition, the exhaust steam of the pressure regulating device 12 flows into the condenser through the third exhaust port 123 . The accident condition is an abnormal operating condition.

[0100] In this way, the normal operation of the pressure regulating device 12 under accident conditions can be guaranteed.

[0101] In one of the detailed embodiments, taking the arrangement of two sets of medium and low pressure cylinders as an example, referring to Figure 6 The air inlet of the first intermediate pressure cylinder 1302 is connected to the air inlet of the second intermediate pressure cylinder 1303, the air inlet of the first intermediate pressure cylinder 1302 is connected to the air inlet of the first low pressure cylinder 1304 and the air inlet of the second low pressure cylinder 1305 respectively, the air inlet of the second intermediate pressure cylinder 1303 is connected to the air inlet of the third low pressure cylinder 1306 and the air inlet of the fourth low pressure cylinder 1307 respectively, the first valve 14 is set between the first air outlet of the boiler 11 and the first air inlet 131 of the high pressure cylinder 1301, the second valve 15 is set between the first exhaust port 121 of the pressure regulating device 12 and The third valve 16 is arranged between the first air inlet 131 of the high-pressure cylinder 1301 and the first exhaust port 121 of the pressure regulating device 12 and the second air inlet 132 of the high-pressure cylinder 1301.

[0102] Among them, when the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit meets the preset low-load condition, all the main steam in the boiler 11 flows into the pressure regulating device 12, and all the main steam is pressurized in the pressure regulating device 12 to form pressurized steam, and the pressurized steam flows into the first air inlet 131 of the high-pressure cylinder 1301 through the second valve 15, and the high-pressure cylinder 1301 uses the pressurized steam to achieve thermoelectric conversion through the second generator 23; when the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system 10 of the coal-fired power unit does not meet the preset low-load condition, a part of the main steam in the boiler 11 flows into the pressure regulating device 12, and a part of the main steam is pressurized in the pressure regulating device 12 to form pressurized steam, and the pressurized steam flows into the second air inlet 132 of the high-pressure cylinder 1301 through the third valve 16, and the other part of the main steam Steam flows into the first air inlet 131 of the steam turbine pressure cylinder 13 through the first valve 14, and the high-pressure cylinder 1301 uses the supercharged steam and part of the main steam to achieve thermoelectric conversion through the second generator 23; the heat loss between the pressure regulating device 12 and the high-pressure cylinder 1301 is achieved through the first generator 22 to achieve thermoelectric conversion; the reheated steam in the boiler 11 flows into the first intermediate-pressure cylinder 1302, the second intermediate-pressure cylinder 1303, the first low-pressure cylinder 1304, the second low-pressure cylinder 1305, the third low-pressure cylinder 1306 and the fourth low-pressure cylinder 1307 through the second air outlet of the boiler 11, and the first intermediate-pressure cylinder 1302, the second intermediate-pressure cylinder 1303, the first low-pressure cylinder 1304, the second low-pressure cylinder 1305, the third low-pressure cylinder 1306 and the fourth low-pressure cylinder 1307 use the reheated steam to achieve thermoelectric conversion through the second generator 23.

[0104] Based on the same inventive concept, in one embodiment, Figure 7 As shown, a method for controlling the thermal system of a coal-fired power plant is provided, which is applied to Figures 1 to 6 The controller of the thermal system of a coal-fired power plant shown in FIG. is used as an example for explanation. The controller is electrically connected to each valve in the thermal system of the coal-fired power plant to adjust the valve opening of each valve. The controller is also electrically connected to each component in the thermal system of the coal-fired power plant to control each component. The method comprises the following steps:

[0105] Step 702: Obtain thermal power demand information of the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit.

[0106] The thermal power demand information is used to characterize the thermal power supply demand of the supplier corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit, and the thermal power demand information is used to characterize at least one of the electricity demand and the water demand temperature.

[0107] As an embodiment, step 702 includes: the controller obtains heat and power demand information of the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit from a management server of the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit.

[0108] Step 704: Determine the load demand status information corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit based on the thermal power demand information.

[0109] The load demand status information is used to characterize the load level required for the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit to operate, for example, 40%, 80%, 100%, or 105%, etc., which is not limited here.

[0110] As an embodiment, step 704 includes: based on the thermal power demand information, evaluating the thermal power demand corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit, wherein the thermal power demand includes at least one of the electricity demand and the water demand temperature, and obtaining a mapping relationship between the thermal power demand and the load degree represented by the load demand status information, wherein specifically, the higher the thermal power demand, the greater the load degree represented by the load demand status information, and the mapping relationships between the electricity demand and the water demand temperature and the load degree represented by the load demand status information can be the same or different, and there is no limitation here; through the mapping relationship, the thermal power demand corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is mapped to the load demand status information corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit.

[0111] Step 706 , based on the load demand information, control the pressure regulating device in the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit to pressurize the main steam discharged from the boiler to obtain pressurized steam.

[0112] As an embodiment, step 706 includes: determining a boost parameter of a pressure regulating device based on load demand status information, wherein the lower the load level represented by the load demand status information, the higher the boost level corresponding to the boost parameter of the pressure regulating device; and controlling the pressure regulating device in the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit to boost the main steam discharged from the boiler based on the boost parameter to obtain boosted steam.

[0113] Step 708: Control the steam turbine pressure cylinder in the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit to perform thermoelectric conversion using the pressurized steam and the reheated steam discharged from the boiler.

[0114] As an embodiment, step 708 includes: controlling the steam turbine pressure cylinder in the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit to convert the heat energy in the pressurized steam and the reheated steam discharged from the boiler into electrical energy.

[0115] In the above embodiment, the thermal power supply demand of the supplier corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is first quantified using thermal power demand information, thereby defining the load demand status information corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit. Then, according to the load demand status information, the pressure regulating device can be controlled to pressurize the main steam discharged from the boiler to obtain pressurized steam, so that the pressurizing action matches the load demand status information corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit, thereby increasing the steam inlet pressure of the turbine pressure cylinder and improving the thermoelectric conversion efficiency of the turbine pressure cylinder in the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit.

[0116] In one of the embodiments, the above method also includes: if it is detected that the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit meets the preset low load condition, then the first valve and the third valve are controlled to be closed, and the second valve is controlled to be opened; if it is detected that the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit meets the preset low load condition, then the second valve is controlled to be closed, and the first valve and the third valve are controlled to be opened.

[0117] In this way, when the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is in a low-load condition, the pressure of the main steam can be increased to form boosted steam, so that the pressure of the steam entering the turbine pressure cylinder is as high as possible, and the thermoelectric conversion efficiency of the turbine pressure cylinder can be improved to a certain extent; when the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is in a high-load condition, the turbine pressure cylinder can be supplemented with steam through the pressure regulating device to ensure the steam intake in the turbine pressure cylinder, so that the turbine pressure cylinder can meet the thermal power supply requirements, and the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit can meet the thermal power supply requirements.

[0118] In one embodiment, historical load demand distribution information of the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit corresponding to the environment in which it is located is obtained, and multiple groups of intermediate and low pressure cylinders are selected from multiple preset intermediate and low pressure cylinders based on the historical load demand distribution information.

[0119] Furthermore, based on the historical load demand distribution information, multiple groups of medium and low pressure cylinders are selected from multiple preset medium and low pressure cylinders, including: locating the load demand degree with the most distribution conditions from the historical load demand distribution information, and selecting multiple groups of medium and low pressure cylinders from multiple preset medium and low pressure cylinders based on the load demand degree with the most distribution conditions. Specifically, the sum of the proportions between all the selected multiple groups of medium and low pressure cylinders is 1, and there is a group of medium and low pressure cylinders among the multiple groups of medium and low pressure cylinders whose corresponding proportion is the same as the load demand degree with the most distribution conditions.

[0120] In this way, it is ensured that when designing multiple groups of medium and low pressure cylinders, the historical load demand distribution of the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit corresponding to the environment in which it is located is taken into consideration, so that when the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is in operation, there is at least one group of medium and low pressure cylinders that can operate at its rated load, ensuring the thermoelectric conversion efficiency of at least one medium and low pressure cylinder in the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit.

[0121] In one embodiment, the valve control opening of each fourth valve is determined based on the load demand status information, wherein the valve control opening can be a target value of the valve control or an adjustment value of the valve control, which is not limited here; according to the valve control opening of each fourth valve, each fourth valve is controlled separately, wherein the closer the rated load level of the medium and low pressure cylinders corresponding to the fourth valve is to the load level represented by the load demand status information, the larger the valve control opening of the fourth valve.

[0122] In this way, it can be ensured that the steam intake amount of the medium and low pressure cylinders is greater when the corresponding rated load level is closer to the load level represented by the load demand status information, that is, the closer the medium and low pressure cylinders are to the rated power when the corresponding rated load level is closer to the load level represented by the load demand status information, thereby ensuring the thermoelectric conversion efficiency of the medium and low pressure cylinders to a certain extent.

[0123] In one embodiment, the valve control opening of the fifth valve is determined according to the load demand status information, and the fifth valve is controlled according to the valve control opening of the fifth valve.

[0124] Furthermore, based on the load demand status information, the valve control opening of the fifth valve is determined, including: determining the difference between the load degree represented by the load demand status corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit and the load degree corresponding to the rated operating condition of the turbine pressure cylinder, obtaining the load degree difference value, and determining the valve control opening of the fifth valve based on the load degree difference value, wherein the higher the load degree difference value, the larger the valve control opening of the fifth valve.

[0125] In this way, both high thermoelectric conversion efficiency of the steam turbine pressure cylinder and meeting the thermoelectric supply requirements can be ensured.

[0126] In one embodiment, when the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit does not meet the preset low load condition, the first generator is controlled to perform thermoelectric conversion on the heat loss between the pressure regulating device and the turbine pressure cylinder.

[0127] The load demand status corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is used to represent the load level corresponding to the thermal power demand of the supplier of the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit under real-time conditions. When the load level represented by the load demand status corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is less than a preset load level threshold, the load demand status corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is determined to meet the preset low load condition. The preset load level threshold can be set by the user as needed, or it can correspond to the rated load level corresponding to the steam turbine pressure cylinder. Specifically, the preset load level threshold is less than the rated load level corresponding to the steam turbine pressure cylinder. For example, the preset load level threshold can be 70%, or other values, which are not limited here.

[0128] In one of the embodiments, when the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit does not meet the preset low-load condition, the high-pressure heating device is controlled to perform heating.

[0129] In this way, when the load demand condition corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit does not meet the preset low-load condition, the exhaust steam temperature of the pressure regulating device is low, and the temperature of the mixed water formed by mixing the condensate and the exhaust steam of the pressure regulating device is low. Therefore, the above-mentioned mixed water is heated by the high-pressure heating device to ensure the return water temperature of the boiler.

[0130] In one embodiment, when the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is in an accident condition, the pressure regulating device is controlled to discharge the exhaust steam into the condenser.

[0131] In this way, the normal operation of the pressure regulating device can be guaranteed under accident conditions.

[0132] In one of the detailed embodiments, the thermal power demand information of the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is obtained; based on the thermal power demand information, the load demand status information corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is determined; according to the load demand status information, the pressure regulating device in the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is controlled to pressurize the main steam discharged from the boiler to obtain pressurized steam; the turbine pressure cylinder in the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is controlled to use the pressurized steam and the reheated steam discharged from the boiler to perform thermoelectric conversion; if it is detected that the load demand status corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit meets the preset low load condition, the first valve and the third valve are controlled to be closed, and the second valve is controlled to be opened; if it is detected that the load demand status corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit meets the preset low load condition, the second valve is controlled to be closed, and the first valve and the third valve are controlled to be opened; the historical load demand distribution information of the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit corresponding to the environment is obtained, and according to the historical load demand distribution information, multiple groups of medium and low pressure cylinders are selected from multiple preset medium and low pressure cylinders; according to the load demand status information, the Determine the valve control opening of each fourth valve, wherein the valve control opening can be a target value for valve control or an adjustment value for valve control, which is not limited here; control each fourth valve separately according to the valve control opening of each fourth valve, wherein the closer the rated load degree of the medium and low pressure cylinders corresponding to the fourth valve is to the load degree represented by the load demand status information, the larger the valve control opening of the fourth valve; determine the valve control opening of the fifth valve according to the load demand status information, and control the fifth valve according to the valve control opening of the fifth valve; when the load demand status corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit does not meet the preset low load condition, control the first generator to convert the heat loss between the pressure regulating device and the turbine pressure cylinder into thermoelectricity; when the load demand status corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit does not meet the preset low load condition, control the high-pressure heating device to heat; when the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is in an accident condition, control the pressure regulating device to discharge the exhaust steam into the condenser.

[0133] In this way, the thermal power supply demand of the supplier corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit is first quantified using thermal power demand information, thereby defining the load demand status information corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit. Then, according to the load demand status information, the pressure regulating device can be controlled to pressurize the main steam discharged from the boiler to obtain pressurized steam, so that the pressurizing action matches the load demand status information corresponding to the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit, thereby increasing the steam inlet pressure of the turbine pressure cylinder and improving the thermoelectric conversion efficiency of the turbine pressure cylinder in the thermal system of the coal-fired power unit.

[0134] It should be understood that, although the steps in the flowcharts of the above embodiments are shown in sequence as indicated by the arrows, these steps are not necessarily performed in the order indicated by the arrows. Unless otherwise specified herein, there is no strict order restriction on the execution of these steps, and these steps can be performed in other orders. Moreover, at least a portion of the steps in the flowcharts of the above embodiments may include multiple steps or multiple stages, and these steps or stages are not necessarily performed at the same time, but can be performed at different times. The execution order of these steps or stages is not necessarily to be performed in sequence, but can be performed in turn or alternately with other steps or at least a portion of steps or stages in other steps.
