Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of boiler technology, specifically to a boiler thermal system and its control method. Background Technology
[0002] Boilers generally use a natural circulation system. Deoxygenated water is pressurized by the boiler feed pump and sent into the steam drum. Then, it is distributed to the evaporator through the downcomer at the bottom of the steam drum. The steam-water mixture generated after heating rises into the steam drum through the riser and is separated by the steam-water separator in the steam drum. The water falls into the lower part of the steam drum and is redistributed to the evaporator through the downcomer for circulation heating. The separated steam is introduced into the superheater through the steam pipe at the top of the steam drum for further heating to produce qualified steam. This part of the steam is used as the main steam for power generation by the steam turbine generator.
[0003] In existing technologies, waste heat flue gas from annealing kilns and other sources is used to preheat boiler feedwater to increase evaporation. However, in actual operation, the temperature and flow rate of the waste heat flue gas flue gas flue gas flue significantly. This fluctuation directly leads to unstable outlet water temperature of the heat exchanger, which in turn causes frequent changes in the heat load of the evaporator: when the flue gas temperature drops sharply, the heat absorbed by the evaporator decreases, causing a sudden drop in evaporation; when the flue gas temperature rises sharply, it may cause the evaporator to operate under overload. At the same time, the drastic fluctuations in water temperature not only reduce the boiler thermal efficiency, but may also cause oscillations in the steam drum water level or loss of control of steam parameters, seriously affecting the stability of power generation.

[0022] To make the technical solution of this application clearer and easier to understand, the following describes a boiler thermal system and its control method provided by the embodiments of this application.
[0023] Example 1 like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a boiler thermal system, including: Boiler 1; Steam drum 2 has its input end connected to boiler 1 via a first main line, and its output end connected to superheater 6; a downcomer is provided at the bottom of steam drum 2 and an upcomer is provided at the top. The flue gas heat exchange device includes a first flow channel 3 and a flue gas flow channel 4 that are isolated from each other; the first flow channel 3 has a first input end and a first output end, the first input end is connected to a downcomer through a first pipe 13; the first output end is connected to an evaporator 7 through a second pipe 14, and the output end of the evaporator 7 is connected to a riser; the flue gas heat exchange device is configured to use the waste heat flue gas in the flue gas flow channel 4 to heat the medium flowing through the first flow channel 3; The heat storage buffer assembly includes a pressure tank 10 and an isolation heat exchanger 9 disposed inside the pressure tank 10. The input end of the isolation heat exchanger 9 is used to input waste heat flue gas, and the output end of the isolation heat exchanger 9 is connected to the input end of the flue gas passage 4. A temperature sensor is provided at the output end of the isolation heat exchanger 9 to detect the temperature of the output flue gas. The pressure tank 10 has a first inlet at the top and a first outlet at the bottom. The first outlet is connected to the first main line via a first branch line. A flow regulating device 12 is installed on the first branch line to control the flow rate of the medium input into the pressure tank 10. The first outlet is connected to the first pipeline 13. The heat storage buffer assembly is configured to adjust the fluctuation of the waste heat flue gas through the medium in the pressure tank 10, so that the temperature of the flue gas output to the flue gas flow channel 4 remains stable.
[0024] Specifically, this system includes a boiler 1, a steam drum 2, and a first main line connecting the steam drum 2 and the boiler 1. The downcomer at the bottom of the steam drum 2 and the riser at the top form a circulation base. The flue gas heat exchange device adopts a first flow channel 3 and a flue gas flow channel 4 that are isolated from each other. The first flow channel 3 has a first input end and a first output end. The first input end is connected to the downcomer through a first pipe 13, and the first output end is connected to the evaporator 7 through a second pipe 14. The output end of the evaporator 7 is connected back to the riser to form a closed loop, so that the waste heat flue gas in the flue gas flow channel 4 can continuously heat the circulating medium in the first flow channel 3. Specifically, in this embodiment, the isolation heat exchanger 9 is in the form of a coil heat exchanger. When the medium flowing out from the first branch is injected into the pressure tank through the first inlet, it will come into contact with the surface of the coil heat exchanger and then exchange heat with the flue gas flowing inside the coil heat exchanger; In this embodiment, an induced draft fan 11 is provided at the output end of the flue gas duct 4. The function of the induced draft fan 11 is to provide power for the flue gas in the flue gas duct 4, guide the flue gas to be discharged smoothly, ensure the stable flow of waste heat flue gas in the flue gas duct 4, and help the smooth operation of the entire waste heat utilization and thermal cycle system. Specifically, during system operation, the initial opening value of the preset flow regulating device (in this embodiment, the initial opening value is 20%) is used to allow a portion of the medium to enter the pressure tank through the first branch and exchange heat with the flue gas inside the isolation heat exchanger 9. The temperature sensor monitors the flue gas temperature output from the isolation heat exchanger 9 in real time, calculates the difference between it and the set temperature as the deviation value, and determines the opening adjustment value of the flow regulating device based on the deviation value to accurately control the flow rate of the medium diverted from the boiler 1 to the pressure tank 10. When the deviation value is greater than 0 (i.e., the actual flue gas temperature is higher than the set temperature), the opening adjustment value is increased. In this embodiment, for every 1°C increase, the opening value increases by 0.8%. When the deviation value is less than 0 (i.e., the actual flue gas temperature is lower than the set temperature), the opening adjustment value is decreased. In this embodiment, for every 1°C decrease, the opening value decreases by 0.8%. In this embodiment, the flow regulating device is a proportional valve. As the medium is injected into the pressure tank 10, the medium and the flue gas inside the isolation heat exchanger 9 continuously exchange heat, thereby keeping the flue gas temperature output to the flue gas flow channel 4 stable. The flue gas, after being stabilized and kept at a constant temperature, enters the flue gas flow channel 4 and undergoes efficient heat exchange with the medium in the first flow channel 3. The heated medium is then transported to the evaporator 7 through the first pipeline 13, where it absorbs heat to generate a uniform steam-water mixture. This mixture is then returned to the steam drum 2 via the riser pipe to complete the steam-water separation. The separated saturated steam is then introduced into the superheater 6 for further heating to form superheated steam with stable parameters. Working principle: This application adjusts the fluctuations of waste heat flue gas by supplying a medium into the pressure tank 10, thereby stabilizing the flue gas temperature input to the flue gas pipeline from the isolation heat exchanger. This effectively suppresses drastic changes in flue gas temperature and significantly reduces the problem of frequent fluctuations in the heat load of the evaporator 7 caused by fluctuations in waste heat flue gas. The stabilized flue gas temperature ensures uniform heating of the medium in the first flow channel 3, which not only avoids the risk of sudden drops in evaporation or overload operation, but also fundamentally suppresses the phenomenon of water level oscillation in the steam drum 2 and uncontrolled steam parameters. This design improves the thermal efficiency of the boiler 1 while enhancing the operational stability of the power generation system, enabling waste heat flue gas to be efficiently and reliably converted into evaporation gain in the boiler 1.
[0025] In some embodiments, the flue gas heat exchanger also has a second flow channel 5, which has a second input end and a second output end. The second input end is connected to the output end of the evaporator 7 via a third pipe 15, and the second output end is connected to the riser via a fourth pipe 16. The flue gas heat exchanger is also configured to use the waste heat flue gas from the flue gas flow channel 4 to heat the medium flowing through the second flow channel 5.
[0026] Specifically, the flue gas heat exchange device is also equipped with a second flow channel 5. The second input end of the second flow channel 5 is connected to the output end of the evaporator 7 through the third pipe 15, and the second output end is connected back to the riser pipe through the fourth pipe 16. The steam-water mixture output by the steamer flows into the second flow channel 5, and the waste heat flue gas in the flue gas flow channel 4 is used to reheat the steam-water mixture, thereby increasing its temperature and vaporization efficiency, and thus significantly improving the evaporation capacity of the boiler 1.
[0027] In some embodiments, an economizer 8 is connected in parallel to the second pipeline 14, a first valve 17 is provided between the input end of the economizer 8 and the second pipeline 14, a second valve 18 is provided between the output end of the economizer 8 and the second pipeline 14, and a third valve 19 is provided on the second pipeline 14 between the first valve 17 and the second valve 18.
[0028] Specifically, an economizer 8 is installed between the heat exchanger and the evaporator 7. It can recover waste heat from the flue gas to preheat the medium entering the evaporator 7, allowing the medium to absorb more heat and improve the energy quality input to the evaporator 7. It can also stabilize the temperature of the medium entering the evaporator 7, avoiding problems such as disordered heat load and unstable evaporation caused by large temperature fluctuations, and ensuring stable operation of the evaporator 7. Furthermore, it can reduce heat loss from the flue gas through waste heat recovery, improve the overall thermal efficiency of the boiler 1, help improve the evaporation rate and steam quality of the boiler 1, and optimize the thermal performance of the boiler 1. Specifically, to further optimize heat utilization and enhance system adjustment flexibility, an economizer 8 is connected in parallel to the second pipeline 14. A first valve 17 is installed between the input end of the economizer 8 and the second pipeline 14 to control the on / off state of the input end of the economizer 8. A second valve 18 is installed between the output end of the economizer 8 and the second pipeline 14 to control the on / off state of the output end of the economizer 8. At the same time, a third valve 19 is installed on the second pipeline 14 between the first valve 17 and the second valve 18. When the system activates the economizer 8 as needed, the third valve 19 can be closed and the third valve 19 opened. The first valve 17 and the allowance valve allow the medium flowing through the second pipeline 14 to first enter the economizer 8, improve the energy state of the medium, and then flow back to the second pipeline 14 and into the evaporator 7, thereby enhancing heat recovery. If the economizer 8 needs maintenance or does not need to be used, the first valve 17 and the second valve 18 are closed and the third valve 19 is opened, allowing the medium to flow directly along the second pipeline 14, ensuring that the basic process of the system is not affected. This adapts to different operating conditions and helps the boiler 1 system achieve a better balance between waste heat utilization and flexible equipment control, thereby improving overall energy efficiency and operational stability.
[0029] In some embodiments, a fourth valve 20 is provided on the first pipeline 13 near the first input end, and a fifth valve 21 is provided on the second pipeline 14 near the first output end.
[0030] Specifically, a fourth valve 20 is installed on the first pipeline 13 near the first input end, and a fifth valve 21 is installed on the second pipeline 14 near the first output end. When the system is running normally, the fourth valve 20 and the fifth valve 21 are opened to ensure the smooth flow of the medium in the first flow channel 3.
[0031] In some embodiments, a first bypass is connected between the first pipeline 13 and the second pipeline 14, and the first bypass is located between the input end of the fourth valve 20 and the output end of the fifth valve 21, and a sixth valve 22 is provided on the first bypass.
[0032] Specifically, when the boiler 1 system is under specific operating conditions, the medium can be diverted or supplemented across pipelines by operating the sixth valve 22. If it is necessary to reduce the flow rate of the medium flowing through the first flow channel 3, the sixth valve 22 can be opened to allow some of the medium to flow directly from the first pipeline 13 through the first bypass into the second pipeline 14, reducing the total amount of medium entering the flue gas heat exchanger. In conjunction with the opening adjustment of the fourth valve 20 and the fifth valve 21, the load of the flue gas heat exchanger can be flexibly controlled. When the flue gas heat exchanger needs to be temporarily isolated due to a fault, after closing the fourth valve 20 and the fifth valve 21, the sixth valve 22 can be opened to allow the medium to maintain the basic connection between the first pipeline 13 and the second pipeline 14 through the first bypass, ensuring that the main steam-water circulation process is not interrupted, buying time for system fault diagnosis and equipment repair, and avoiding the shutdown of the entire boiler 1 thermal system due to the maintenance of a single piece of equipment. This improves the continuity and reliability of system operation and helps boiler 1 to have stronger adjustment resilience and risk resistance when dealing with complex operating conditions in waste heat utilization scenarios.
[0033] In some embodiments, a seventh valve 23 is provided on the second pipeline 14 near the input end of the evaporator 7, and an eighth valve 24 is provided on the third pipeline 15 near the output end of the evaporator 7.
[0034] Specifically, a seventh valve 23 is installed on the second pipeline 14 near the input end of the evaporator 7, and an eighth valve 24 is installed on the third pipeline 15 near the output end of the evaporator 7. When the system is running normally, the seventh valve 23 and the eighth valve 24 are opened to ensure the smooth flow of the medium in the evaporator 7.
[0035] In some embodiments, a second bypass is connected between the second pipeline 14 and the third pipeline 15, and the second bypass is located between the input end of the seventh valve 23 and the output end of the eighth valve 24, and a ninth valve 25 is provided on the second bypass.
[0036] Specifically, when evaporator 7 needs to be quickly isolated for maintenance due to a malfunction, after closing the seventh valve 23 to cut off the medium input and closing the eighth valve 24 to block the medium output, the ninth valve 25 is opened to allow the second pipeline 14 and the third pipeline 15 to maintain basic connectivity through the second bypass, ensuring that the medium circulation in the second flow channel 5 is uninterrupted. This buys time for troubleshooting and maintenance of evaporator 7, and at the same time prevents the complete shutdown of the boiler 1 waste heat utilization and steam-water circulation system due to the abnormality of a single piece of equipment. This improves the system's resilience in dealing with sudden equipment situations and helps boiler 1 maintain relatively stable heat output and waste heat recovery efficiency even under fluctuating waste heat flue gas conditions, even with partial equipment maintenance.
[0037] In some embodiments, a tenth valve 26 is provided on the third pipeline 15 near the second input end, and an eleventh valve 27 is provided on the fourth pipeline 16 near the second output end.
[0038] Specifically, a tenth valve 26 is installed on the third pipeline 15 near the second input end, and an eleventh valve 27 is installed on the fourth pipeline 16 near the second output end. During normal system operation, the tenth valve 26 and the eleventh valve 27 are opened to ensure that the steam-water mixture flows smoothly into the second flow channel 5. It is then reheated by the waste heat flue gas in the flue gas flow channel 4, and then efficiently returned to the riser pipe through the fourth pipeline 16, continuously improving the temperature and vaporization efficiency of the steam-water mixture and helping the boiler 1 to steadily increase its evaporation capacity.
[0039] In some embodiments, a third bypass is connected between the third pipeline 15 and the fourth pipeline 16, and the third bypass is located between the input end of the tenth valve 26 and the output end of the eleventh valve 27, and a twelfth valve 28 is provided on the third bypass.
[0040] Specifically, when the flue gas heat exchanger needs to be temporarily isolated for maintenance due to a malfunction, after closing the tenth valve 26 to cut off the medium input and closing the eleventh valve 27 to block the medium output, the twelfth valve 28 is opened to allow the third pipeline 15 and the fourth pipeline 16 to maintain basic connectivity through the third bypass. This ensures that the circulation of the steam-water mixture from the evaporator 7 to the riser is uninterrupted, buying time for troubleshooting and maintenance of the flue gas heat exchanger. At the same time, it prevents the waste heat utilization and steam-water circulation system of boiler 1 from being completely disrupted due to the abnormality of a single piece of equipment. This improves the system's resilience in the face of sudden equipment conditions and helps boiler 1 maintain a relatively stable heat output and secondary heating efficiency even under fluctuating waste heat flue gas conditions, even with localized flow channel maintenance. This optimizes the overall energy efficiency and operational reliability of boiler 1.
[0041] Example 2 like Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a control method for a boiler thermal system, using a boiler thermal system provided in Embodiment 1, including the following steps: S1: The initial opening value of the preset flow regulating device is used to allow part of the medium to enter the pressure tank through the first branch. Specifically, before the system starts running, the initial opening value of the flow regulating device 12 is preset (in this embodiment, the initial opening value is 20%). Based on this opening, the boiler feedwater will be proportionally diverted to the first branch, and part of the medium will be transported to the pressure tank 10 through the first branch to prepare for the subsequent absorption of waste heat flue gas fluctuations and stabilization of flue gas temperature, thereby realizing the initial filling and flow pre-allocation of the medium in the tank.
[0042] S2: The flue gas temperature output from the isolated heat exchanger is obtained in real time through a temperature sensor; Specifically, by using a temperature sensor installed at the output end of the isolation heat exchanger 9, the temperature of the flue gas discharged from the isolation heat exchanger 9 is continuously and in real time acquired. This temperature is a key parameter reflecting the state of the waste heat flue gas after preliminary heat exchange, providing a basis for subsequent judgment of flue gas fluctuations and adjustment of flow rate, and ensuring that the system can detect changes in flue gas temperature in a timely manner.
[0043] S3: Calculate the deviation between the flue gas temperature and the set temperature, and determine the opening adjustment value of the flow regulating device based on the deviation value; Specifically, the actual flue gas temperature monitored by the temperature sensor is compared with the system set temperature, and the difference between the two is calculated as the deviation value. Based on the deviation value, the opening adjustment value of the flow adjustment device is determined to precisely control the flow rate of the medium diverted from boiler 1 to pressure tank 10. When the deviation value is greater than 0 (i.e., the actual flue gas temperature is higher than the set temperature), the opening adjustment value is increased. In this embodiment, the opening value increases by 0.8% for every 1°C increase. When the deviation value is less than 0 (i.e., the actual flue gas temperature is lower than the set temperature), the opening adjustment value is decreased. In this embodiment, the opening value decreases by 0.8% for every 1°C decrease. S4: Dynamically adjust the opening of the flow regulating device according to the opening adjustment value to control the flow rate of the medium entering the pressure tank through the first branch; Specifically, the opening of the flow regulating device 12 is dynamically adjusted according to the opening adjustment value. If the deviation value is greater than 0 (the actual flue gas temperature is higher than the set temperature), the opening is increased to allow more medium to flow into the pressure tank 10 through the first branch, thereby enhancing the heat exchange between the medium and the flue gas in the isolation heat exchanger 9 and reducing the flue gas temperature. If the deviation value is less than 0 (the actual flue gas temperature is lower than the set temperature), the opening is decreased to reduce the amount of medium flowing into the tank, weakening the heat exchange effect and increasing the flue gas temperature. Through continuous dynamic adjustment, the flow rate of the medium entering the pressure tank 10 through the first branch is precisely controlled, thereby achieving preliminary intervention in flue gas temperature fluctuations.
[0044] S5: Adjust the fluctuation of waste heat flue gas in the isolation heat exchanger by the medium in the pressure tank, so that the flue gas temperature output from the isolation heat exchanger to the flue gas flow channel remains stable. Specifically, the medium flowing into the pressure tank 10 exchanges heat with the waste heat flue gas in the isolation heat exchanger 9. Since the medium has a certain heat capacity, it can absorb heat from the flue gas (when the flue gas temperature is too high) or release heat to the flue gas (when the flue gas temperature is too low). With the help of this heat exchange, the temperature and flow fluctuations of the waste heat flue gas are buffered. Ultimately, the flue gas temperature output from the isolation heat exchanger 9 to the flue gas flow channel 4 is maintained in a stable range, laying the foundation for subsequent efficient heat exchange.
[0045] S6: Input flue gas with a stable temperature into the flue gas flow channel to heat the medium flowing through the first flow channel and increase its temperature; Specifically, the flue gas at a stable temperature after the fluctuations are smoothed is transported to the flue gas flow channel 4. Inside the flue gas flow channel 4, the flue gas exchanges heat with the medium in the first flow channel 3. The heat of the flue gas is transferred to the medium, significantly increasing the temperature of the medium and providing a high-temperature and stable input medium for the evaporator, thus ensuring the heat exchange efficiency of the evaporator.
[0046] S7: The heated medium is heated by the evaporator to generate a steam-water mixture, which is then separated by the steam drum to form steam and input into the superheater.
[0047] Specifically, the heated medium flows into the evaporator 7, absorbs heat in the evaporator 7, and generates a steam-water mixture. The steam-water mixture enters the steam drum 2 through the riser pipe, and the steam-water is separated by the built-in steam-water separator in the steam drum 2.
