Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of valve control, and particularly relates to a device with heat exchanger flow resistance diagnosis function and a control method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] In an industrial cooling circulating water and chilled water system, a large number of heat exchangers at the end rely on heat exchange between primary refrigerant and secondary process medium to achieve temperature control. To achieve precise temperature control, a temperature control type dynamic balance valve is usually installed on the primary side return water pipeline of the heat exchanger, and the secondary side water supply temperature is monitored in real time to control the primary side flow in the opposite direction, so that the output temperature of the secondary side meets the process set value.

[0003] However, after long-term operation of the heat exchanger, scale, biological sludge or particle deposits inevitably accumulate on the inner wall of the flow passage, significantly reducing the heat transfer efficiency. In this process, to compensate for the heat transfer attenuation, the control system increases the valve opening to increase the primary side flow, which increases the valve opening and masks the performance degradation of the heat exchanger, and increases the primary side pumping energy consumption.

[0004] Currently, there are mainly two lagging methods for heat transfer attenuation. One is to install a differential pressure sensor on the primary supply and return water pipeline, and use the primary side differential pressure alarm method, but it only triggers when the heat exchanger is severely blocked, and cannot capture the early gradual change process of scale formation. The other way is to clean regularly, but this way may cause "excessive cleaning" or "insufficient cleaning", and also cannot dynamically match the real health status of the equipment.

[0005] Chinese invention patent CN111322447A dynamic flow balance and energy control integrated valve control method and valve realizes hydraulic balance control and energy control by integrating pressure / temperature sensor and orifice plate flow measurement, but does not involve heat exchanger flow resistance diagnosis function.

[0090] Wherein, W represents the instantaneous energy, Q represents the instantaneous flow, C represents the specific heat capacity of water, and |T2-T1| represents the water supply and return temperature difference. The instantaneous energy is used for valve display, which refers to the energy provided by the primary side of the heat exchanger / theoretically maximum energy that can be obtained by the secondary side.

[0093] Wherein, v represents the instantaneous flow rate, Q represents the instantaneous flow, and A represents the corresponding pipe cross-sectional area.

[0094] In the embodiment, the controller is used to select the pipe diameter D of the valve. Generally, the marked diameter on the V-type ball valve is selected. If the diameter is observed before and after the valve, the marked diameter on the V-type ball valve is enlarged by 1 gear. After selecting the corresponding diameter D, the heat exchanger primary side pipe diameter is DN200, then D=0.2m, A=πD 2 / 4=0.031416m 2 , and if the instantaneous flow Q provided by the current valve is 150m 3 / h, then the corresponding instantaneous flow rate v=Q / A=150 / 3600 / 0.031416=1.326m / s.

[0102] The comparison of the Reynolds coefficient with the first preset threshold value and the second preset threshold value obtains a real-time flow state. In the embodiment, the first preset threshold value is 2000, and the second preset threshold value is 4000. Then:

[0103] If Re < 2000, the real-time flow state is determined to be a "laminar flow state";

[0104] If 2000 < Re < 4000, the real-time flow state is determined to be a "transitional flow state";

[0105] If Re > 4000, the real-time flow state is determined to be a "turbulent flow state".

[0106] In the embodiment, when the real-time flow state is a "turbulent flow state" in step S300, the resistance coefficient is calculated according to the instantaneous flow and pressure value of the heat exchanger, and the design resistance coefficient is calibrated according to the resistance coefficient at the initial stage of operation, including:

[0112] The resistance coefficient in a preset time period is automatically recorded, and the average value of the resistance coefficient is calculated;

[0113] The average value of the resistance coefficient is calibrated as the design resistance coefficient for entry.

[0114] In the embodiment, the logarithmic mean temperature difference is calculated according to the water temperature value in step S400, and the design logarithmic mean temperature difference is calibrated according to the logarithmic mean temperature difference at the initial stage of operation, including the following steps:
