Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a capacity configuration optimization method for equipment, in particular to a coordinated configuration optimization method and system for LNG cold energy cascade power generation-refrigeration and high-pressure gas storage tank capacity distribution rods for multi-energy microgrids. Background Art

[0002] Natural gas (NG), a clean energy source, is experiencing a significant increase in demand. For ease of storage, NG is often transported as liquefied natural gas (LNG). However, before use, LNG must be vaporized. During this vaporization process, each kilogram of LNG releases approximately 830 kJ of cold energy. Currently, LNG receiving stations are mostly located along coastal areas, utilizing seawater or air for vaporization. This not only wastes cold energy but also potentially pollutes the environment. Consequently, the recovery and utilization of LNG cold energy is attracting increasing attention from scholars.

[0003] To maximize the utilization of LNG cold energy, current mainstream technologies employ a cascaded approach. This involves dividing LNG cold energy into different cooling segments based on temperature zones and applying the energy from each segment to different applications. For example, air separation, carbon capture, and pulverization technologies primarily utilize cold energy from the deep cooling zone; power generation primarily utilizes cold energy from the deep and intermediate cooling zones; and air conditioning, refrigeration, and cold storage primarily utilize cold energy from the shallow cooling zone.

[0004] Although research on the cascade utilization of LNG cold energy has made great progress, there are still limitations. On the one hand, current research on the cascade utilization of LNG cold energy tends to focus on the design and simulation levels, and lacks research on capacity configuration and energy management optimization. On the other hand, the cascade utilization of LNG cold energy is limited by the demand for gas load. When the demand for gas load is high or low, it may lead to waste or shortage of cold energy, resulting in a decrease in the utilization rate of cold energy. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a method and system for the coordinated configuration optimization of LNG cold energy cascade power generation-refrigeration and high-pressure gas storage tank capacity distribution for multi-energy microgrids to improve the above-mentioned series of problems existing in the current cascade utilization of LNG cold energy.

[0183] (4.3) According to the above two-stage distributed blue rod collaborative configuration optimization method, the model is optimized and solved by calling Gurobi or Cplex solvers to obtain the optimal values ​​of decision variables for the distributed blue rod collaborative configuration optimization of multi-energy microgrid LNG cold energy cascade power generation-refrigeration and high-pressure gas storage tank capacity.

[0184] In order to verify the performance of the method of the present invention, a simulation experiment was conducted. The basic parameters selected include: (1) combining the typical daily output curve of renewable energy and load to obtain the average output of renewable energy and the average load of electric cooling in each hour. The typical daily output curve of renewable energy and load is as follows: Figure 3 As shown in Table 1, the renewable energy fluctuation is set to ±30% and the load fluctuation is set to ±10%; (2) the relevant parameters of the cold energy cascade utilization equipment, high-pressure gas storage tanks and microgrid energy consumption equipment are shown in Table 1; (3) the model parameters of the high-pressure gas storage tanks are shown in Table 2; (4) the transaction limit between the system and the main power grid is 10,000kW, and the reference value of the power grid electricity price is: the peak purchase price is 1.10 yuan / kWh, the normal purchase price is 0.70 yuan / kWh, the valley purchase price is 0.40 yuan / kWh, and the electricity sales price is 0.3 yuan / kWh; (5) the configuration and operation cost of the cold energy utilization equipment, the configuration cost of the cold energy power generation equipment is 7,000 yuan / kW, the operation cost is 0.4 yuan / kW, the configuration cost of the direct cooling equipment is 2,000 yuan / kW, and the operation cost is 0.2 yuan / kW.

[0190] Depend on Figure 2 It can be seen that coupling the cascade utilization of LNG cold energy with the energy management of multi-energy microgrids, considering the energy flow of electricity, cold and gas, reflects the coupling relationship between the cold energy utilization equipment and high-pressure gas storage tanks, distributed energy, and multi-energy conversion equipment in the system.

[0191] The Yalmip platform is used to build and solve the problem with Gurobi solver to obtain the optimal values ​​of decision variables for the coordinated configuration optimization of LNG cold energy cascade power generation-refrigeration and high-pressure gas storage tank capacity distribution. The energy balance is as follows: Figure 4-6 shown.

[0192] Depend on Figure 4It can be seen that the power flow after capacity optimization configuration is as follows: during the periods of 7-12 and 14-22, due to the higher electricity purchase price at this time, the LNG cold energy power generation power increases, which is equivalent to the rated operating power generation power of the gas turbine, greatly alleviating the system's power consumption pressure and reducing the system's carbon emissions.

[0193] Depend on Figure 5 It can be seen that the cooling power flow after capacity optimization configuration is as follows: during the periods of 7-10, 12-13, and 15-20, the cooling load demand increases. At this time, the LNG cooling power cooperates with the electric refrigeration machine to supply the cooling load demand. When the LNG cooling capacity is small, the cooling power is about 200kW, accounting for about 10% of the cooling load demand; when the LNG cooling capacity is large, the cooling power can reach 1000kW, which is a maximum of more than 50% of the cooling load demand. This shows that the LNG cooling link has the effect of supplementing the supply of cooling load demand, reducing the demand for electric cooling, that is, additional electricity consumption, and further optimizing energy utilization.

[0194] Depend on Figure 6 As can be seen, NG production fluctuates throughout the day, with higher daytime demand likely due to increased cooling demand or for micro-gas turbines. LNG gasification can largely meet the system's gas load. Furthermore, gas storage equipment stores gas during low-load periods and releases it during peak periods, balancing the system's natural gas supply.

[0195] The optimal capacity configuration of the high-pressure gas storage tank in the optimization result is 40m 3 The selection results indicate that eight No. 1 gas tanks will be constructed; the optimal capacity configuration for the LNG cold energy power generation equipment is 1790 kW; and the optimal capacity configuration for the LNG cold energy refrigeration equipment is 2000 kW. The total capacity configuration investment cost is 17.04 million yuan, and the total cost over the planning period is 255.29 million yuan. The total cost over the same planning period for a multi-energy microgrid system without LNG cold energy utilization equipment and high-pressure gas storage is 260.09 million yuan. This shows that the LNG cold energy cascade power generation and refrigeration system and high-pressure gas storage proposed in this method can improve the economic operation and energy efficiency of the multi-energy microgrid.
