Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of heat exchange station control technology, specifically relating to a heat exchange station control method and system based on artificial intelligence. Background Technology

[0002] Heat exchange stations are typically located at the end of a heating (or cooling) system, close to the user area. Their main function is to transfer the heat from the centrally supplied primary heat medium (such as high-temperature water or steam) to the secondary heat medium (usually lower-temperature water) through heat exchange equipment. The heated secondary heat medium is then delivered to the user terminals (such as radiators, floor heating, air conditioning units, etc.) to meet the user's needs for heating, domestic hot water, or air conditioning.

[0003] Traditional heat exchange station control methods often rely on manual experience or simple preset programs, making it difficult to adapt to complex and dynamically changing actual heating demands. For example, changes in outdoor weather conditions (temperature, humidity, wind speed, etc.), the actual usage of buildings (indoor temperature, building type, etc.), and the operating status of the heating network itself (supply and return water temperature, flow rate, pressure, etc.) all significantly affect heating load and effectiveness. Traditional control methods cannot perceive these changes in real time and accurately, and make optimal adjustments, potentially leading to insufficient or excessive heating, resulting in energy waste, decreased user comfort, and increased operating costs.

[0004] In recent years, with the development of artificial intelligence technology, especially the application of deep learning and reinforcement learning in the control of complex systems, new ideas have been provided for solving the problems of heating system regulation. However, how to effectively integrate various real-time monitoring data, construct a model that can reflect the dynamic characteristics of the heating system, and generate a regulation strategy that takes into account both global optimization and local adaptability on this basis remains a challenging technical problem.

[0005] The shortcomings of existing technology: 1) Reliance on a single data source: Existing technologies rely solely on the operating data of the heat exchange station itself (such as supply and return water temperature, flow rate, and pressure), while ignoring key external factors that affect the heating effect. They cannot accurately judge changes in environmental heat dissipation and cannot directly understand the user's comfort needs and actual heat loss.

[0006] 2) Limited Model Predictive Capability: Existing load forecasting methods based on statistical regression, time series analysis, or simple physical models often struggle to accurately capture the complex nonlinear relationships between heating load and multiple factors such as weather, building characteristics, and user behavior. Prediction errors are significant, especially under special circumstances such as sudden weather changes, where prediction accuracy drops drastically.

[0007] 3) Lack of adaptive control strategies: Existing technologies still employ PID control, fuzzy control, or simple logic judgment based on preset rules. These strategies are often static and cannot be dynamically adjusted according to real-time changes in load, weather, and user needs. Summary of the Invention

[0008] To address the problems of existing technologies, such as reliance on a single data source, limited model prediction capabilities, and lack of adaptive control strategies, this invention aims to provide an artificial intelligence-based control method and system for heat exchange stations.

[0019] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention provides an artificial intelligence-based heat exchange station control method and system. By collecting real-time data from multiple dimensions, including meteorological data, room temperature data, and heat exchange station operation data, and constructing a dynamic topology map, it can more comprehensively and accurately grasp the current state of the heating system and changes in the external environment. This overcomes the limitations of a single data source and provides a more reliable and refined data foundation for subsequent prediction and decision-making, making control more targeted. The invention employs a deep learning-based heating load prediction model, which can learn and capture the complex nonlinear relationships between multiple factors such as meteorological data, room temperature data, and heat exchange station status and the load. Compared to traditional models, it has higher prediction accuracy, especially performing better in dealing with complex situations such as sudden weather changes. It provides more reliable future load expectations, enabling control strategies to make more reasonable preparations and adjustments in advance, reducing supply-demand mismatch. The control strategy generation model, built based on reinforcement learning algorithms, can generate control strategies based on real-time prediction results and heat exchange station operation data. Data is used to generate dynamic control strategies that not only consider the current state but also adapt to future changes. These strategies are no longer rigid preset programs but dynamically optimized, highly adaptable, and high-quality policies that can more effectively balance heating performance and energy consumption. A hierarchical reinforcement learning strategy is employed, establishing regional and individual-level agents and considering different sets of optimization objectives. Regional-level agents are responsible for global coordination and optimization, while individual-level agents perform fine-tuning based on regional guidance and heat exchange station conditions. This achieves a good combination of global optimization and local adaptation, avoiding the drawbacks of simple unified control or completely decentralized control, and improving the collaborative efficiency and overall performance of heat exchange station control throughout the heating area. Through more accurate prediction and more optimized, adaptive, and coordinated control, energy waste can be significantly reduced, the overall operating cost of heating stations can be lowered, and heating quality can be improved, ensuring user comfort. Other beneficial effects of the present invention will be further explained in the specific embodiments. Attached Figure Description

The invention employs a deep learning-based heating load prediction model, which can learn and capture the complex nonlinear relationships between multiple factors such as meteorological data, room temperature data, and heat exchange station status and the load. Compared to traditional models, it has higher prediction accuracy, especially performing better in dealing with complex situations such as sudden weather changes. It provides more reliable future load expectations, enabling control strategies to make more reasonable preparations and adjustments in advance, reducing supply-demand mismatch. The control strategy generation model, built based on reinforcement learning algorithms, can generate control strategies based on real-time prediction results and heat exchange station operation data. Data is used to generate dynamic control strategies that not only consider the current state but also adapt to future changes. These strategies are no longer rigid preset programs but dynamically optimized, highly adaptable, and high-quality policies that can more effectively balance heating performance and energy consumption. A hierarchical reinforcement learning strategy is employed, establishing regional and individual-level agents and considering different sets of optimization objectives. Regional-level agents are responsible for global coordination and optimization, while individual-level agents perform fine-tuning based on regional guidance and heat exchange station conditions. This achieves a good combination of global optimization and local adaptation, avoiding the drawbacks of simple unified control or completely decentralized control, and improving the collaborative efficiency and overall performance of heat exchange station control throughout the heating area. Through more accurate prediction and more optimized, adaptive, and coordinated control, energy waste can be significantly reduced, the overall operating cost of heating stations can be lowered, and heating quality can be improved, ensuring user comfort.
