TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] As one of important auxiliary systems of thermal power plant, the feed water system of most units currently mainly has feed water pump and feed water pump turbine unit, which bears the continuous supply of feed water to the boiler and provides desuperheating water to the boiler reheater and the high-pressure bypass device of steam turbine. Nowadays, many units are only provided with a single 100% capacity feed water pump set, and its reliability is particularly important. Once the feed water system is abnormal, it will directly lead to shutdown, which seriously affects the safety and economy of the unit. With the continuous increase of new energy power generation proportion, the power supply structure has undergone profound changes, and frequent wide-load adjustment of coal-fired generating units has become a normal state, which puts forward higher requirements for the safe and stable operation of key equipment of power plant, especially for feed water pump turbine. The adjustment range is wider and the adjustment frequency is more frequent, so the reliability and economic operation are more and more prominent.
[0003] However, at present, the maintenance plan of the feed water system of many coal-fired power plants is still implemented according to experience. This maintenance mode has some problems, mainly as follows: (1) The running time of calendar days is used to determine the maintenance cycle, without considering the actual operation characteristics of the unit, and there is over-maintenance; (2) Single-dimensional state evaluation is carried out, and the traditional method is mainly based on vibration monitoring and other physical parameters to evaluate the reliability, without quantitative analysis of economic indicators such as equipment maintenance cost and energy loss, which makes it difficult to balance safety and economy in operation and maintenance decision-making; (3) Usually, maintenance is carried out at the same time as the main equipment maintenance, without considering the deterioration law of the thermal performance of the unit and the economic efficiency of the maintenance, and the maintenance work is organized before the feed water system is in normal operation. This kind of unified maintenance interval regardless of the type of equipment, manufacturer and operation reliability of the equipment, etc. has some unscientific and unreasonable situations.
[0004] Facing the change of power supply structure, the utilization hours of coal-fired units decrease year by year, and in the areas where new energy is abundant, coal-fired units are often in shutdown state. Arranging maintenance cycle according to calendar years leads to great waste of resources. In addition, due to factors such as rising coal prices, the profitability of power generation enterprises is weakened. Under the condition that the equipment is in normal operation, it is an effective way for power generation enterprises to reduce costs and increase efficiency to reasonably optimize and adjust the maintenance cycle by comprehensively judging the reliability and economy of the equipment.

[0038] When the feedwater system is running normally, with the running time, the cylinder efficiency of the feedwater pump turbine decreases, more steam is needed to drive the feedwater pump, which leads to the decrease of the main steam turbine power generation and the increase of the boiler coal consumption. If maintenance is implemented, the cylinder efficiency of the feedwater pump turbine is improved, the coal consumption is reduced, the power generation cost is reduced, and the maintenance benefit is brought. The change of power supply coal consumption is calculated by the equivalent enthalpy drop method to master the influence of the feedwater pump turbine cylinder on economy: Step 221; steam extraction equivalent enthalpy drop and steam extraction efficiency : ; .

[0041] Step 224, the direct coal consumption reduction amount , the heat corresponding to the reduced steam: ; converted into the coal consumption reduction amount (direct coal consumption reduction amount): ; Step 225, the indirect coal consumption reduction amount , the main steam turbine increases a part of power generation because of the reduction of steam extraction amount: ; Step 226, the reduced part of coal consumption of the increased power generation: ; represents the low calorific value of coal.
[0042] The total coal consumption reduction amount is: ; Step 227, maintenance benefit: ; represents the coal-in price; represents the operation time; represents the total power of the power plant.
[0043] Step 228, under the premise that the equipment is normal, from the perspective of thermal economy, if the maintenance benefit is less than the maintenance cost, the feed water pump turbine can continue to operate, and if the maintenance benefit increases to equal or greater than the maintenance cost with the increase of the operation time, the maintenance should be considered.
[0044] The application proposes a dynamic comprehensive evaluation method combining reliability and economic analysis framework, realizes scientific and quantitative evaluation of the equipment state by constructing a multi-dimensional evaluation index system. According to the actual operation of the equipment, the maintenance cycle of the feed water pump turbine is determined from the economic point of view on the premise that the reliability index does not decrease, human intervention is reduced, and a multi-dimensional dynamic interactive model is realized to realize holographic evaluation of the equipment state. At the reliability modeling level, a multi-physical field coupling model is proposed to realize state prediction under the synergistic action of multiple factors. At the same time, the economic analysis method is used to assist operation and maintenance from the perspective of maintenance cost and energy saving benefit, and the equipment state parameters are converted into economic indicators in real time. When the equipment is running normally and the reliability has not decreased obviously, the preliminary economic index basis is provided for the decision maker.
[0045] Compared with the traditional periodic maintenance or passive maintenance method, the method provides a feed water pump turbine reliability state priority method on the one hand, and provides an economic auxiliary decision-making idea on the basis of normal equipment index and stable operation on the other hand. This technical path not only prolongs the service value of the equipment, but also reduces the economic loss caused by unplanned shutdown.
[0046] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the application, and it should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled persons in the technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the application, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered as the protection scope of the application.
