Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of heat supply systems, in particular to a control method and device for a sustainable renewable energy heat supply system. BACKGROUND

[0002] The trend of replacing traditional energy with renewable energy is gradually emerging. Renewable energy refers to energy that is continuously replenished and regenerated through natural processes within a short period of time, including water energy, wind energy, solar energy, biomass energy, geothermal energy, and ocean energy.

[0003] However, the above-mentioned renewable energy inevitably has the defect of being unsustainable, resulting in low utilization rate and a large amount of energy waste.

[0004] At the same time, such renewable energy and its heat supply technology generally have inherent intermittency and volatility defects, mainly manifested as "day / night and seasonal supply and demand imbalance". For example, air energy: the ambient air temperature fluctuates greatly with day and night and seasons, directly affecting the efficiency of air source heat pumps; solar energy: directly dependent on light intensity and duration, with day and night alternation, sunny and cloudy changes, and seasonal differences; wind energy / water energy: although not the main force for direct heating, if used to drive heat pumps or heating, its output is also limited by natural conditions.

[0005] Therefore, the instability of renewable energy leads to a mismatch between energy supply and heat load demand in time; in order to overcome this core challenge, not only is it necessary to release the converted and stored energy according to the demand in different time periods or continuously, but also it is necessary to have a high-efficiency, large-capacity heat storage type heat supply system.

[0006] Subsequently, various technical solutions for energy storage have emerged, but these existing technical solutions all have the following defects:

[0007] 1. Energy storage is not timely;

[0008] 2. Energy loss is large during energy storage;

[0009] 3. The stored energy cannot be provided to the next stage in time or continuously;

[0010] For example, in the patent technical solutions with publication numbers CN108917229A, CN114593477A, CN117273329A, etc., attention is paid to controlling the heat storage and release of the heat supply system using electricity prices, water level thresholds, environmental temperatures, or predicted weather changes. There is always a "time difference" between the heat storage and release action and the change in user demand, and the defect of continuous energy release has not been solved.

[0011] The patent technical solution with the publication number CN109084359A focuses on using solar heat or using solar heat combined with conventional energy to supply heat, which maximizes the use of solar energy, but still cannot solve the problem of spatial separation between solar heat supply and user demand changes, and still has the above defects.

[0012] The core contradiction of the heat supply system as a high-inertia thermodynamic system is that the user demand change rate (minute level) >> system heat storage and release response rate (30 minute level); and the existing control method lacks real-time dynamic closed-loop feedback, and is always "chasing demand", which leads to user immediate heat shortage due to heat storage of the heat supply system invading direct heat supply, and continuous user heat shortage due to demand peak after heat release of the heat supply system. SUMMARY

[0102] 2.4.3, when η≥η0, the bidirectional charging and discharging heat module 2 is in standby state in discharging mode.

[0103] In some examples, the total return water temperature threshold T0 is in the range of 41-45℃.

[0104] In some examples, the direct heating efficiency threshold η0 is a direct heating efficiency value determined according to the coefficient of performance COP and the integrated part load performance coefficient IPLV specified in GB 19577-2024 “Energy Efficiency Limits and Energy Efficiency Grades for Heat Pumps and Water Chillers”.

[0105] In some examples, the bidirectional heat charging and discharging module 2 is composed of a heat storage tank 21, a heat exchanger 22, a heat storage pump 23, a valve V1, a valve V2, a valve V3, a valve V4, a valve V5, and a valve V5; wherein the high-temperature fluid port of the heat storage tank 21 is in fluid communication with the secondary side high-temperature port 223 of the heat exchanger 22 through the valve V5, the low-temperature fluid port of the heat storage tank 21 is in fluid communication with the secondary side low-temperature port 224 of the heat exchanger 22 through the valve V6, the suction end of the heat storage pump 23 is in fluid communication with the high-temperature fluid port through the valve V1, the suction end of the heat storage pump 23 is also in fluid communication with the low-temperature fluid port through the valve V2, the discharge end of the heat storage pump 23 is in fluid communication with the secondary side high-temperature port 223 through the valve V3, and the discharge end of the heat storage pump 23 is in fluid communication with the secondary side low-temperature port 224 through the valve V4; when the heat storage pump 23 is running, the valves V1, V3, and V6 are open, and the valves V2, V4, and V5 are closed, the heat discharging mode of the bidirectional heat charging and discharging module 2 is activated; when the heat storage pump 23 is running, the valves V1, V3, and V6 are closed, and the valves V2, V4, and V5 are open, the heat charging mode of the bidirectional heat charging and discharging module 2 is activated.

[0106] In some examples, the heat exchanger 22 includes at least one plate heat exchanger; when there are multiple plate heat exchangers, each plate heat exchanger is provided with a primary side high-temperature port 221, a primary side low-temperature port 222, a secondary side high-temperature port 223, and a secondary side low-temperature port 224; wherein in the heat charging mode, the high-temperature water flowing into the primary side high-temperature port 221 is heat transferred to the secondary side and heats the low-temperature heat storage fluid flowing into the secondary side low-temperature port 224, which is discharged from the secondary side high-temperature port 223, and the low-temperature water after heat transfer is discharged from the primary side low-temperature port 222; in the heat discharging mode, the secondary side high-temperature port 223 delivers high-temperature heat storage fluid into the heat exchanger 22, which is heat transferred to the primary side and heats the low-temperature water flowing into the primary side low-temperature port 222, which is discharged from the primary side high-temperature port 221 into the heating pipe network 12, and the low-temperature heat storage fluid after heat exchange is discharged from the secondary side low-temperature port 224.

[0107] It should be noted that the naming of the four ports of the heat exchanger 22 is based on its fixed structural position in the heat exchanger 22, regardless of the direction of fluid flow; in the charging or discharging mode, the same port can be dynamically used as an inlet or outlet, without the need to redefine the name, and only needs to connect the corresponding high / low temperature fluid pipeline according to the current working condition.

[0108] It should also be noted that the charging or discharging mode is in the opposite direction of the water and the heat storage fluid in the plate heat exchanger 22 to ensure the heat exchange quality.

[0115] In some examples, the suction end of the heating pump 14 is further provided with an electronic descaler to avoid the entry of hard water into the return water pipe and scaling under the action of heat.

[0116] In some examples, in order to more accurately collect the heating heat energy, i.e. the flow of the heating pipe network 12, a remote heat meter and a flow meter are arranged on the heating pipe network 12.

[0117] The embodiment also provides a control device of the sustainable renewable energy heating system, which comprises:
