TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of steel industry scheduling method, and particularly relates to a steel industry power grid interaction whole-process scheduling method based on mixed integer linear programming. BACKGROUND
[0002] Currently, a relatively mature optimization framework has emerged for scheduling production processes in the steel industry, with significant progress particularly in key processes such as sintering, hot rolling, and continuous casting. However, these methods generally focus on optimizing within-process time costs, equipment losses, or local energy consumption. Their optimization scope is limited to the static scenario of a single process, failing to plan scheduling for the entire steel industry production process. In the context of market-oriented energy pricing reform, time-of-use electricity pricing (TOU) mechanisms, through price signals, guide industrial users to participate in demand-side response and have become a key policy tool for addressing the spatiotemporal mismatch between electricity supply and demand. Existing methods demonstrate that deep coupling of TOU electricity pricing with industrial energy systems can effectively tap into the regulatory potential of flexible loads, confirming the leverage value of TOU electricity pricing in energy cost optimization. However, these approaches have not been fully extended to cross-process, multi-energy flow coordination scenarios, nor have they thoroughly quantified the dynamic game between electricity price fluctuations and production flexibility. Coordinated optimization of multi-energy coupled systems is a key approach to addressing the dual constraints of energy costs and carbon emissions. The key lies in deeply exploring the cross-scale interactions of multiple energy flows. Existing methods have proven that the flexibility and economy of the energy system can be significantly improved through the coordinated design of electricity-gas-heat multi-energy complementarity and flexible production regulation. However, there is a general lack of modeling methods for the dynamic coupling of energy flows in the entire process of ironmaking-steelmaking-rolling, and the real-time coordination mechanism of grid demand response instructions and production flexibility parameters has not been deeply integrated. In the field of grid demand response, many research results have laid the foundation for the construction of an interactive coordination mechanism between the steel industry and the grid. Although existing scheduling calculation methods have made significant progress in the interactive coordination mechanism between the steel industry and the grid, they have the following limitations: (1) Single process optimization limitations: Existing research mostly focuses on the static optimization of single processes such as sintering and steelmaking, and lacks coordinated scheduling of the entire process of ironmaking-steelmaking-rolling, resulting in limited overall energy efficiency and cost optimization. (2) Insufficient application of time-of-use electricity price mechanism: The coupling of time-of-use electricity price and production scheduling is limited to the local energy system, and has not been extended to the cross-process-multi-energy flow coordination scenario, and the dynamic game relationship between electricity price fluctuations and production flexibility has not been quantified. (3) Lack of dynamic coupling of energy flows: The existing multi-energy coupling model lacks the modeling of the dynamic interaction mechanism of energy flows (gas, steam, etc.) throughout the entire process, and cannot achieve accurate matching of energy supply and demand between processes. (4) Single dimension of grid interaction: The existing research on grid demand response has not constructed a multi-dimensional coupling model of "process-energy-grid", resulting in the steel industry's potential as an adjustable load not being fully tapped. (5) Inefficient processing of complex constraints: Traditional models have difficulty processing nonlinear coupling constraints such as gas generator start-up and shutdown, fuel input, etc., resulting in low solution efficiency and inability to support real-time scheduling needs. (6) Lack of real-time coordination mechanism: The existing methods do not integrate the minute-level coordinated optimization of grid demand response instructions and production flexibility parameters, making it difficult to dynamically respond to price fluctuations in the electricity spot market.

[0029] In summary, the embodiment constructs a dynamic management model of energy storage equipment through (1)-(5) above, providing a physical basis for subsequent optimization models.
[0030] Example 3 In this embodiment, a multi-energy coupling collaborative optimization model is further constructed based on Example 2, i.e., S2 is specifically: A. Blast furnace gas is the core secondary energy of the whole process of the steel industry, and its dynamic supply and demand balance is the key link of energy scheduling. The gas is produced from blast furnace ironmaking and is consumed by sintering process, blast furnace self-use, steel heating and gas power generation. In order to guarantee the energy utilization efficiency and system stability, the model needs to meet the real-time supply and demand balance: (18) In the formula, denotes the scheduling period the output of blast furnace gas, denotes the scheduling period the blast furnace gas demand of sintering machine, denotes the scheduling period the blast furnace gas demand of hot blast furnace in blast furnace ironmaking system, denotes the scheduling period the blast furnace gas demand of heating furnace, denotes the scheduling period the gas demand of baking ladle, denotes the scheduling period the blast furnace gas demand of the first set of gas power generation units.
[0031] B. Gas power generation is the core energy conversion node of multi-energy coupling system, which realizes the efficient conversion of clean energy through cascade utilization of blast furnace gas and converter gas. According to the time-of-use electricity price strategy, multiple sets of gas power generation units dynamically adjust the output: in the peak period of electricity price, they are preferentially operated at full load to replace high-priced purchased electricity, and in the valley period, they are coordinated with gas tank to realize gas storage and buffering. The output model is as follows: (19) In the formula, denotes the scheduling period the power generation of the first set of gas power generation units. , respectively represent the calorific value of blast furnace gas and the calorific value of converter gas, , respectively represent the conversion efficiency of blast furnace gas and the conversion efficiency of converter gas; (20) In the formula, denotes the scheduling period The The power generation of the coal-fired generator set, denotes the scheduling period step.
[0032] C. Waste heat power generation is a key link in the energy cascade utilization of the steel industry. By recovering waste heat steam from the converter steelmaking and rolling process, it is converted into electric energy to replace high-priced purchased electricity. The waste heat power generation set dynamically adjusts the output according to the real-time state of the steam bin and the time-of-use electricity price strategy: during the peak period of electricity price, it runs at full load to maximize the benefit, and during the valley period, it buffers the steam supply and demand fluctuations through the steam bin.

[0033] (22) In the formula, denotes the scheduling period The The power generation of the coal-fired generator set.
[0034] D. The power supply and demand balance of the whole process of the steel industry is the core of energy scheduling, and its dynamic coordination needs to integrate purchased electricity, self-generation and electric consumption of each process. Among all the equipment, it is particularly pointed out that the refining furnace decides whether to start according to the order demand. The global balance equation of the power bus is as follows: (23) (24) In the formula, denotes the scheduling period The total power consumption of the scheduling period, denotes the scheduling period The power consumption of the sintering system, denotes the scheduling period The power consumption of the coal mill, denotes the scheduling period The power consumption of the blast furnace ironmaking system, denotes the scheduling period The power consumption of the converter steelmaking system, denotes the scheduling period The power consumption of the refining furnace, denotes the scheduling period The power consumption of the continuous casting system, denotes the scheduling period Power consumption of steel rolling system, Indicates the scheduling period The power consumption of the heating furnace, Indicates the scheduling period Power consumption of the oxygen production system; (25) Where, Indicates the scheduling period The total power generation, Indicates the scheduling period Photovoltaic power generation.
[0035] Example 4 In this embodiment, based on the models in Examples 2 and 3, the objective function and constraints are set, that is, S3 is specifically: The core goal of full-process economic scheduling in the steel industry is to achieve coordinated optimization of minimizing total operating costs and maximizing overall benefits through multi-energy coupling and time-sharing response strategies. The objective function integrates material costs, basic electricity costs, purchased electricity costs, and product benefits to construct the following mathematical expression: (26) Where, Indicates the The unit price of the material, No. Material scheduling period The consumption, Indicates the scheduling period The purchased electricity price, Indicates the scheduling period of purchased electricity, represents the photovoltaic electricity price, Indicates the selling price of finished steel. Indicates the scheduling period The output of finished steel, Indicates the selling price of by-product steel slag, Indicates the scheduling period The output of by-product steel slag, Indicates the selling price of the by-product slag, Indicates the scheduling period The output of by-product water slag; b. The dynamic management of energy storage devices in the whole process of steel industry should strictly follow the capacity and flow constraints to ensure the continuity of production and the physical feasibility of energy scheduling. The storage capacity constraint defines the buffering capacity of the device to avoid overstocking or supply interruption caused by over-limit; the flow constraint ensures the conservation and timing of material flow through the dynamic balance equation. The model realizes the coordination of constraints through the following mechanisms: the constraint conditions of energy storage devices in S3 and the power constraint conditions of key devices, which are specifically: Storage capacity constraint: (27) wherein, denotes the scheduling period the input quantity of the first warehouse, , denotes the lower limit and the upper limit of the input quantity of the first warehouse, respectively.

(29) wherein, denotes the scheduling period the output quantity of the first warehouse, , denotes the lower limit and the upper limit of the output quantity of the first warehouse, respectively. Gas power generation constraint: (30) wherein, denotes the lower limit and the upper limit of the power of the first gas power generation unit during the scheduling period, respectively. The waste heat steam power generation constraint is represented as: (31) wherein, denotes the lower limit and the upper limit of the power of the first waste heat power generation unit during the scheduling period, respectively.
[0037] Example 5 The embodiment is based on examples 1-4, and the embedded demand response load adjustment model, S4, is as follows: The steel industry participates in the supply and demand interaction of the power grid, and dynamically optimizes the operation time sequence of high-energy-consuming equipment through time-of-use price signals to reduce the cost of purchased electricity and improve the flexibility of power grid interaction. The model is driven by grid dispatching instructions, identifies the flexibility potential of adjustable load equipment, and builds a collaborative strategy for load transfer and power reduction.

[0039] Suppose that in this time window, the steel industry needs to reduce the power , and the adjusted load is: (35) In the formula, represents the purchased electricity quantity in the dispatching period in response to the grid dispatching instruction, and the objective function is updated accordingly.

The model introduces binary variables to represent the start-stop state of the equipment, continuous variables to represent the output level of the equipment, uses the large M linearization technology to process the nonlinear constraints, and solves by means of the branch and bound algorithm to ensure the global optimality of the model. The model is solved by calling the Gurobi solver for optimization calculation. The method effectively coordinates the start-stop and output scheduling of the equipment, and meets the flexibility and economic demand of the steel enterprise in participating in the supply-demand interaction of the grid.

[0045] Taking the typical day power grid dispatching scenario in Qujing City, Yunnan Province as an example, during the period of 00:15 to 08:00, the dispatching center sends demand response instructions to the industrial users based on the time-of-use electricity price mechanism and the load peak-valley characteristics, requiring them to actively reduce the electricity purchase load by 20 MW.
[0046] Based on the analysis and verification of the conditions provided above, as shown in Figure 3 , after the response of the grid coordinated dispatching, the purchased power is reduced during the period of responding to the grid dispatching instructions, although it is in the low electricity price period. The average electricity purchase amount shows a phased increase, indicating that during the daytime and evening peak period, the steel plant actively responds to the grid demand, not only meeting its own high energy consumption production, but also providing emergency peak shaving or frequency modulation capacity to the grid, thereby significantly improving the dispatching flexibility and grid compatibility. Figure 4 Based on the comparative study of Figure 5 , the dynamic response characteristics of the power generation and consumption of the steel industry under the interactive coordinated dispatching of the power grid are revealed. Figure 4 By comparing Figure 5 , it can be seen that the power consumption and power consumption remain balanced, indicating that although the purchased power decreases on average after responding to the grid instructions, the power generation of the unit does not decrease significantly, but is compensated by internal units such as coal gas power generation and waste heat power generation, which shows that while reducing the purchased power, the internal units can quickly adjust the output, thereby avoiding the gap in power generation caused by the reduction of purchased power. It can be seen that after responding to the dispatching instructions, the steel plant suppresses the night purchased power through internal unit power generation and energy storage reverse output, and maintains stable power supply in each link, without causing fluctuations in the power demand of the production process, which means that the dynamic balance of internal power generation and consumption is not out of balance due to the sudden reduction of purchased power. Figure 6 It reveals the dynamic situation of various types of energy storage devices in the steel industry under the interactive coordinated dispatching of the power grid, and verifies that under the interactive coordinated dispatching mode of the power grid, by reasonably utilizing the adjustment effect of energy storage devices, the relationship between production and power load can be effectively balanced, and the active response to the dispatching instructions of the power grid can be realized. Figure 7 It reveals the characteristics of production benefit and cost control of the steel industry under the interactive coordinated dispatching of the power grid. Figure 7 It can be seen that the main product revenue shows significant dependence on the dispatching mode, and the stage jump in its revenue also corresponds to the change in the capacity of the billet, further verifying the feasibility of the invention.
[0047] The scheduling method provided by the application fully integrates the material flow and energy flow coupling characteristics of the whole process of the steel industry, and constructs a multi-energy collaborative optimization model covering multiple processes such as sintering, ironmaking, steelmaking and rolling. The model takes 'process collaboration and energy complementation' as the framework. Firstly, dynamic balance equations of key energy storage devices such as sintering bin, coal bin, billet storage, converter gas tank and waste heat steam bin are established. Through the time-of-use electricity price response mechanism, the low valley energy storage and peak energy release strategy are optimized, the cost of purchased electricity is reduced, and the energy buffer capacity is improved. Secondly, a dynamic supply and demand model of secondary energy such as blast furnace gas and waste heat steam is constructed. The output optimization of coal gas power generation and waste heat power generation is integrated to realize the collaboration of energy cascade utilization and power grid demand response. Then, a whole-process scheduling model based on mixed integer linear programming (MILP) is designed. Binary variables are introduced to represent the start-stop state of the equipment (such as sintering machine, coal mill and generator set). The nonlinear coupling constraints of gas input and power generation output are linearized by the big M method to ensure the solvability of the model. Next, the power grid interaction instructions (such as load transfer and peak regulation demand) are embedded in the constraint system to establish the linkage mechanism of sinter direct supply, coal powder ratio optimization and billet storage regulation and storage, and realize the minute-level collaborative scheduling of 'process-energy-power grid'. Finally, the Gurobi solver is called to efficiently solve the large-scale MILP model, and generate a globally optimal scheduling scheme within a minute time scale, and verify the comprehensive benefits in reducing operating costs (including material, electricity and by-product income), improving multi-energy collaborative efficiency and responding to power grid demand.
