Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of flow field optimization of auxiliary pipe networks of power plants, and in particular to a method, system, equipment and medium for optimizing the number of guide plates in auxiliary pipe networks of power plants. Background Art
[0002] Existing power plant auxiliary piping networks are often equipped with right-angle or rounded bends. Airflow through these bends often experiences separation, backflow, and localized vortices, significantly increasing flow resistance and significantly deviating from a uniform cross-sectional velocity distribution. This not only increases system energy consumption and fan loads, but also easily causes uneven stress and vibration in downstream piping and heat exchange components, accelerating localized wear and affecting equipment stability and lifespan.
[0003] In order to improve the flow performance in the bend, engineering projects often add single or multiple guide plates in the corner area of the bend to guide the airflow to turn along the wall, so as to suppress flow separation and reduce velocity deviation. It is worth noting that although the number of guide plates has a positive effect on improving the flow performance, the performance improvement brought by it has a "diminishing returns" trend, that is, as the number of guide plates increases, the improvement in drag loss and velocity deviation gradually decreases. After reaching a certain number, it is difficult to obtain significant benefits by further adding plates. If this "diminishing returns" relationship is not reasonably evaluated, blindly adding guide plates will lead to increased structural complexity, manufacturing costs and maintenance difficulties, and even have a negative impact on the local flow field.
[0004] Therefore, although adding guide plates can improve the flow field to a certain extent, the selection of the number of guide plates currently relies mostly on empirical judgment or simple analogy with similar projects. There is a lack of systematic design process and performance optimization criteria and methods, especially the lack of quantitative analysis and guidance on the law of diminishing returns between the number of guide plates and flow performance improvements.

The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present application, and should not be construed as limiting the present application.
[0036] The following describes a method, system, device, and medium for optimizing the number of guide plates in a power plant auxiliary pipe network according to an embodiment of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings. In response to the problem of a lack of a systematic design process and performance optimization for the number of guide plates selected in the above-mentioned background technology, the present application provides a method for optimizing the number of guide plates in a power plant auxiliary pipe network, wherein a first three-dimensional model and a second three-dimensional model of a bend pipe structure in the power plant auxiliary pipe network are established, wherein the second three-dimensional model is provided with a plurality of guide plates; a computational fluid dynamics simulation is performed based on the first three-dimensional model to obtain a first simulation result of the bend pipe structure; a computational fluid dynamics simulation is performed based on the second three-dimensional model with different numbers of guide plates to obtain second simulation results with different numbers of guide plates; based on the first simulation result and the second simulation result with different numbers of guide plates, the along-line pressure loss reduction rate, the local pressure loss reduction rate, and the velocity deviation reduction rate of the bend pipe structure with different numbers of guide plates are calculated, and a target number of guide plates in the power plant auxiliary pipe network is determined based on the along-line pressure loss reduction rate, the local pressure loss reduction rate, and the velocity deviation reduction rate of the bend pipe structure with different numbers of guide plates.

It can effectively guide the design and modification of power plant auxiliary equipment pipelines and has broad application prospects.
[0037] Specifically, Figure 1 A flow chart of a method for optimizing the number of guide plates in a power station auxiliary equipment network provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, the method for optimizing the number of guide plates in the auxiliary pipe network of the power station includes the following steps:
[0039] In step S101, a first three-dimensional model and a second three-dimensional model of a curved pipe structure in a power station auxiliary equipment pipe network are established, wherein the second three-dimensional model is provided with a plurality of guide plates.
[0040] The bent pipe structure includes a right-angle bent pipe or a rounded-angle bent pipe.
[0041] Specifically, the present application establishes a three-dimensional model of the curved pipe structure of the auxiliary equipment pipeline network of the power station, constructs a first three-dimensional model for the curved pipe structure without guide plates, and constructs a second three-dimensional model for the curved pipe structure with different numbers of guide plates. For example, a second three-dimensional model of the curved pipe structure with 1 guide plate is constructed, a second three-dimensional model of the curved pipe structure with 2 guide plates is constructed, a second three-dimensional model of the curved pipe structure with 3 guide plates is constructed... and a second three-dimensional model of the curved pipe structure with N number of guide plates is constructed.
[0042] Optionally, in some embodiments, when establishing the first three-dimensional model and the second three-dimensional model of the curved pipe structure in the auxiliary pipe network of the power plant, it includes: meshing the corner area in the first three-dimensional model, and meshing the corner area and the guide plate in the second three-dimensional model.
[0043] Specifically, when establishing the first three-dimensional model and the second three-dimensional model of the elbow structure in the auxiliary equipment pipeline network of the power station, mesh division is performed, and the mesh of the corner area of the first three-dimensional model is encrypted, and the corner area and the guide plate in the second three-dimensional model are locally encrypted.
[0044] In step S102, computational fluid dynamics simulation is performed based on the first three-dimensional model to obtain a first simulation result of the curved pipe structure, and computational fluid dynamics simulation is performed based on the second three-dimensional model with different numbers of guide plates to obtain a second simulation result with different numbers of guide plates.
[0045] Optionally, in some embodiments, when performing computational fluid dynamics simulation on the curved pipe structure, the method includes: closing the Navier-Stokes equations using the Realizable k-ε turbulence model, and performing fluid dynamics simulation on the curved pipe structure using the closed Navier-Stokes equations.
[0046] Optionally, in some embodiments, the closed Navier-Stokes equations are:
[0047]
[0048] Where ρ is the fluid density, k is the turbulent kinetic energy, and u j is the average speed, x j is the jth direction in the Cartesian coordinate system, G k is the turbulent kinetic energy generation term caused by the mean velocity gradient, G b is the turbulent kinetic energy generated by buoyancy, ε is the turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate, Y M is the contribution of wave expansion in compressible turbulence to the overall dissipation rate, S k and Sε are user-defined source terms, σ ε is the turbulent Prandtl number of ε, σ k is the turbulent Prandtl number k, S is the modulus of the strain rate tensor, C2, C 1ε 、C 3ε , σ k , σ ε is a constant, ν is the kinematic viscosity, and η is a dimensionless parameter reflecting the relationship between S, k and ε. ij is the average strain rate, μ t is the turbulent viscosity, C μis the correlation coefficient of strain rate.
[0049] Among them, in some embodiments, the first simulation result includes the first inlet and outlet pressure drop, the pressure drop before and after the bend corner, and the standard deviation of the velocity of the downstream section of the bend corner; the second simulation result when different numbers of guide plates are set includes the second inlet and outlet pressure drop, the guide section pressure drop and the velocity standard deviation when different numbers of guide plates are set in the bend structure.
[0050] Specifically, the embodiment of the present application uses the Navier-Stokes equations to perform CFD simulation on the elbow structure without the guide plate, and obtains the total inlet and outlet pressure drop (i.e., the first inlet and outlet pressure drop) ΔP0 under the reference state, the total pressure drop before and after the elbow corner ΔPlocal,0, and the standard deviation of the cross-sectional velocity downstream of the elbow corner σ0, which are used to characterize the resistance loss and velocity non-uniformity. It should be noted that the boundary conditions of the CFD simulation are the mass flow inlet, the pressure outlet and the no-slip wall, and the CFD simulation selects the steady-state pressure-velocity coupling fully implicit coupled algorithm.
[0051] Multiple guide plates are sequentially arranged in the corner area of the elbow, and CFD simulation is performed using the Navier-Stokes equations under each arrangement condition to obtain the corresponding second inlet and outlet pressure drop ΔPN, guide section pressure drop ΔPlocal,N, and velocity standard deviation σN.
[0052] When "using the Realizable k-ε turbulence model to close the Navier-Stokes equations and using the closed Navier-Stokes equations for CFD simulation", the Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible fluid are expressed as follows:
[0053]
[0054] Where ρ is the fluid density, u is the velocity, t is the time, p is the pressure, μ is the dynamic viscosity, μ t is the turbulent viscosity, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and F is the body force.
[0055] In step S103, based on the first simulation result and the second simulation result when different numbers of guide plates are set, the along-the-line pressure loss reduction rate, the local pressure loss reduction rate and the speed deviation reduction rate when different numbers of guide plates are set in the bend structure are calculated, and the target number of guide plates for the power station auxiliary pipeline network is determined according to the along-the-line pressure loss reduction rate, the local pressure loss reduction rate and the speed deviation reduction rate when different numbers of guide plates are set in the bend structure.
[0056] Optionally, in some embodiments, the along-the-line pressure loss reduction rate, local pressure loss reduction rate and speed deviation reduction rate of the bend structure when different numbers of guide plates are set are calculated based on the first simulation result and the second simulation result when different numbers of guide plates are set, including: obtaining the along-the-line pressure loss reduction rate of the bend structure when different numbers of guide plates are set based on the difference between the first inlet and outlet pressure drops and the second inlet and outlet pressure drops; obtaining the local pressure loss reduction rate of the bend structure when different numbers of guide plates are set based on the difference between the pressure drops before and after the bend corner and the pressure drop of the guide section; obtaining the speed deviation reduction rate of the bend structure when different numbers of guide plates are set based on the difference between the velocity standard deviation of the downstream section of the bend corner and the velocity standard deviation.
[0057] It can be understood that according to the first inlet and outlet pressure drop ΔP0 and the second inlet and outlet pressure drop ΔP N The difference between the values of ΔP and ΔP is used to obtain the pressure loss reduction rate of the elbow structure when different numbers of guide plates are set. local,0 and the pressure drop in the diversion section ΔP local,N The difference between the values of σ0 and σ0 is used to obtain the local pressure loss reduction rate of the elbow structure when different numbers of guide plates are set. N The difference between the two values is used to obtain the velocity deviation reduction rate of the elbow structure when different numbers of guide plates are set.
[0058] The specific calculation formula is: along the resistance loss reduction rate = ((ΔP0-ΔP N ) / ΔP0)×100%;
[0059] Local resistance loss reduction rate = ((ΔP local,0 -ΔP local,N ) / ΔP local,0 )×100%;
[0060] Speed deviation reduction rate = ((σ0-σ N ) / σ0)×100%.
[0061] By analyzing the performance improvement changes brought about by the along-the-pipe pressure loss reduction rate, local pressure loss reduction rate, and velocity deviation reduction rate with the increase of the number of guide plates N, the inflection point N* of diminishing returns at which the performance improvement tends to saturation is determined, and the number of guide plates N* is used as the optimal number of guide plates arranged for the elbow structure. For example, a table of the along-the-pipe pressure loss reduction rate, local pressure loss reduction rate, and velocity deviation reduction rate of the elbow structure with different numbers of guide plates is obtained. When the along-the-pipe pressure loss reduction rate, local pressure loss reduction rate, and velocity deviation reduction rate of the elbow structure are all less than the preset values, the corresponding number of guide plates obtained from the constructed table is the target number of guide plates for the auxiliary pipe network of the power station.
[0062] In order to enable those skilled in the art to further understand the method for optimizing the number of guide plates of the auxiliary pipe network of the power station in the embodiment of the present application, the following is a detailed description with reference to specific embodiments. Figure 2 shown.
[0063] 1) Establish a three-dimensional model of the curved pipe structure of the power station auxiliary equipment pipeline network;
[0064] Specifically, the three-dimensional model of the curved pipe structure is based on a section of pipe at the outlet of a primary fan in a power station. Multiple three-dimensional geometric models with 0 to 6 guide plates were established using three-dimensional modeling software. Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the original elbow structure without guide plates. Figure 4 Schematic diagram of the elbow structure with four guide plates added.
[0065] 2) Using the Navier-Stokes equation, CFD simulation is performed on the elbow structure without the guide plate to obtain the total pressure drop ΔP0 at the inlet and outlet under the reference state and the total pressure drop ΔP before and after the elbow corner. local,0 and the standard deviation of the velocity in the downstream section of the elbow corner, σ0, which is used to characterize the resistance loss and velocity non-uniformity;
[0066] Specifically, before using the Navier-Stokes equations to perform CFD simulation on a curved pipe structure without guide plates, meshing is required, with a total of approximately 890,000 meshes.
[0067] The model and boundary conditions were set in Fluent software. The turbulence model was selected as Realizable k-ε, the inlet was a mass flow rate of 66.9 kg / s, the outlet was a pressure outlet boundary condition, and the wall was a no-slip wall condition.
[0068] Without setting the guide plate, the CFD simulation was performed using the Navier-Stokes equation, and the simulation results were as follows:
[0069] The total pressure drop of the first inlet and outlet ΔP0=155.18Pa;
[0070] Total pressure drop before and after the elbow corner ΔP local,0 =74.311Pa;
[0071] The standard deviation of the outlet section velocity σ0 = 5.9268 m / s.
[0072] 3) Multiple guide plates are sequentially arranged in the bend corner area, where the number of guide plates N is an integer between 1 and 6. CFD simulation is performed using the Navier-Stokes equation under each arrangement condition to obtain the total pressure drop ΔP corresponding to each different number of guide plates. N , pressure drop in the diversion section ΔP local,N, velocity standard deviation σ N ;
[0073] Specifically, before using the Navier-Stokes equations to perform CFD simulation on a curved pipe structure without guide plates, meshing is required, with a total mesh size of approximately 1 million.
[0074] The model and boundary conditions were set in Fluent software. The turbulence model was selected as Realizable k-ε, the inlet was a mass flow rate of 66.9 kg / s, the outlet was a pressure outlet boundary condition, and the wall was a no-slip wall condition.
[0075] At the corners of the elbow, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 guide plates were installed in sequence. CFD simulation was performed using Navier-Stokes. The following simulation results were obtained for each simulation:
[0076] The total pressure drop ΔP of the second inlet and outlet corresponding to each different number of guide plates N ;
[0077] Total pressure drop before and after the elbow corner ΔP local,N ;
[0078] Standard deviation of outlet section velocity σ N ;
[0079] 4) The total inlet and outlet pressure drop, the total pressure drop before and after the bend, and the standard deviation of the velocity in the downstream section of the bend obtained for different numbers of guide plates were plotted in a table, and three performance improvement indicators were calculated: the reduction rate of the drag loss along the way, the reduction rate of the local drag loss, and the reduction rate of the velocity deviation;
[0080] Specifically, based on the total inlet and outlet pressure drop ΔP when the number of guide plates is 0 to 6 N , Total pressure drop before and after the elbow corner ΔP local,N , standard deviation of outlet section velocity σ N Three performance improvement metrics are calculated:
[0081] Pressure loss reduction rate along the process = ((ΔP0-ΔP N ) / ΔP0)×100%;
[0082] Local pressure loss reduction rate = ((ΔP_local_0 - ΔP_local(N)) / ΔP_local_0) × 100%;
[0083] Speed deviation reduction rate = ((σ0-σ(N)) / σ0) × 100%;
[0084] From this, we can obtain a table of performance indicators of the elbow structure with different numbers of guide plates after CFD simulation, as shown in Table 1:
[0085] Table 1
[0086]
[0087]
[0088] 5) By analyzing the performance improvement rate changes of various performance indicators as the number of guide plates N increases, the inflection point of diminishing returns N* where the performance improvement tends to saturate is determined;
[0089] Specifically, the judgment criteria are based on the fact that the improvement of the three performance improvement indicators is lower than the preset threshold ε (ε = 6% in this embodiment). As can be seen from the table above, when the number of deflectors is 4, the reduction rate of the drag loss along the way is improved by 64.92%-61.98% = 2.94% compared to the number of deflectors is 3, the reduction rate of the local drag loss is improved by 50.14%-48.51% = 1.64%, and the reduction rate of the speed deviation is improved by 68.83%-63.74% = 5.09%, all of which are less than 6%. Therefore, the inflection point of diminishing returns N* = 4, where the performance improvement tends to saturate, is determined.
[0090] 6) Determine the number of guide plates N*=4 as the optimal number of guide plates for the elbow structure. As shown in Table 1, the resistance loss when N*=4 is significantly reduced compared to the original elbow structure. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, Figure 5 This is the velocity cloud diagram of the middle section of the original earthenware jar structure. Figure 6 The velocity cloud diagram of the middle section when N*=4 guide plates is added. The uniformity of the overall velocity field in the pipeline is greatly improved when N*=4.
[0091] According to the method for optimizing the number of guide plates in the auxiliary pipeline network of a power plant proposed in an embodiment of the present application, a first three-dimensional model and a second three-dimensional model of the curved pipe structure in the auxiliary pipeline network of the power plant are established, wherein the second three-dimensional model is provided with multiple guide plates; computational fluid dynamics simulation is performed based on the first three-dimensional model to obtain a first simulation result of the curved pipe structure, and computational fluid dynamics simulation is performed based on the second three-dimensional model with different numbers of guide plates to obtain second simulation results when different numbers of guide plates are set; based on the first simulation result and the second simulation result with different numbers of guide plates, the along-the-line pressure loss reduction rate, local pressure loss reduction rate and speed deviation reduction rate of the curved pipe structure with different numbers of guide plates are calculated, and the target number of guide plates for the auxiliary pipeline network of the power plant is determined according to the along-the-line pressure loss reduction rate, local pressure loss reduction rate and speed deviation reduction rate when different numbers of guide plates are set for the curved pipe structure. This solves the problem of lack of systematic design process and performance optimization in the selection of the number of guide plates. Through precise CFD simulation, the optimal configuration of the number of guide plates is determined, avoiding the uncertainty and inefficiency in traditional empirical design, improving the uniformity of fluid velocity in the pipeline, reducing the energy consumption of the system, and improving the stability and life of the equipment.
