[0002] A large amount of secondary energy is generated in the main process production of a steel plant, including blast furnace gas, converter gas, coke oven gas and the like. The gas is widely used in various production lines, and finally the surplus gas is consumed by a boiler. However, the mixed gas entering the boiler has dynamic changes, such as changes in the proportions of different gases and changes in the calorific value of the mixed gas, which makes the actual heat provided by the gas in a unit time not necessarily reach the required heat. Therefore, it is necessary to dynamically adjust the gas inlet quantity in the boiler. In the existing process, the adjustment mainly relies on manual experience, and the adjustment precision is not enough. The actual heat provided by the gas in a unit time cannot reach the required heat, which easily causes fluctuations in the parameters of the boiler and increases the risk of the system.

The outlet of pipe 40 is connected to the inlet of mixed gas pipe 20. A second valve 410 is installed on converter gas pipe 40. A controller is electrically connected to the first valve 210, the first flow meter 220, the first calorific value meter 230, and the second valve 410.

[0020] It should be noted that when the actual heat provided by the gas in the boiler body 10 per unit time reaches the required heat, it can mean that the actual heat and the required heat are close in magnitude.

[0023] It should be noted that the first sub-valve 2110 can be used for adjusting the upper layer flow of the mixed gas, and the second sub-valve 2120 can be used for adjusting the lower layer flow of the mixed gas.
[0024] Referring to Figure 3 As shown in the drawings, the number of the first sub-valve 2110, the second sub-valve 2120, the first sub-inlet, the second sub-inlet, the second mixed sub-pipeline 250, the third mixed sub-pipeline 260 and the fourth mixed sub-pipeline 270 is 2.
[0025] Referring to Figure 3 As shown in the drawings, the boiler system further includes: a coke oven gas pipeline 50, an outlet of the coke oven gas pipeline 50 being connected with the second inlet of the boiler body 10, the coke oven gas pipeline 50 being provided with a third valve 510, a second flow meter 520 and a second calorific value instrument 530, wherein the third valve 510 is close to the outlet of the coke oven gas pipeline 50, and the second flow meter 520 and the second calorific value instrument 530 are close to the inlet of the coke oven gas pipeline 50.
[0026] It should be noted that during the operation of the boiler body 10, adjustment of different gas flow rates will be involved, and adjustment of different gas flow rates will affect the actual heat provided by the gas to the boiler body 10. In order to ensure that the actual heat reaches the required heat, a series of complex adjustments need to be made to the valve. First, the converter gas regulation will be explained: In some embodiments, the controller is further configured to: if the converter gas regulation signal is monitored, obtain a first target flow rate of the converter gas in the converter gas pipeline 40; based on the required heat, the first target flow rate, the current detection flow rate of the first flow meter 220, the current detection heat value of the first heat value instrument 230, the current detection flow rate of the second flow meter 520, and the current detection heat value of the second heat value instrument 530, adjust the opening of the first sub-valve 2110, the second sub-valve 2120 and the second valve 410, so that the actual heat provided by the gas to the boiler body 10 in a unit of time reaches the required heat.
[0027] For the above-mentioned embodiment of monitoring the converter gas regulation signal, the controller is further configured to: determine a first target opening based on the first target flow rate; control the opening of the second valve 410 to adjust to the first target opening at a preset rate; during the adjustment to the first target opening, based on the current detection flow rate of the first flow meter 220, the current detection heat value of the first heat value instrument 230, the current detection flow rate of the second flow meter 520, and the current detection heat value of the second heat value instrument 530, determine the first actual heat provided by the gas to the boiler body 10 in a unit of time; based on the first actual heat and the required heat, adjust the opening of the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120.
[0028] In some embodiments, based on the current detection flow rate of the first flow meter 220, the current detection heat value of the first heat value instrument 230, the current detection flow rate of the second flow meter 520, and the current detection heat value of the second heat value instrument 530, the first actual heat provided by the gas to the boiler body 10 in a unit of time can be: the product of the current detection flow rate of the first flow meter 220 and the current detection heat value of the first heat value instrument 230 is taken as the first heat provided by the gas in the mixed gas pipeline 20 to the boiler body 10; the product of the current detection flow rate of the second flow meter 520 and the current detection heat value of the second heat value instrument 530 is taken as the second heat provided by the gas in the coke oven gas pipeline 50 to the boiler body 10; the sum of the first heat and the second heat is taken as the first actual heat.
[0029] In some embodiments, based on the first actual heat and the required heat, adjusting the opening degrees of the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120 can be: taking the difference between the first actual heat and the required heat as a heat deviation; if the heat deviation is within a preset deviation range, maintaining the opening degrees of the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120 unchanged; if the heat deviation is greater than an upper limit value of the preset deviation range, reducing the opening degrees of the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120; if the heat deviation is less than a lower limit value of the preset deviation range, increasing the opening degrees of the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120; wherein the preset deviation range represents that the numerical value of the first actual heat is close to the numerical value of the required heat.
[0030] It should be noted that in the process of adjusting to the first target opening degree, the current detection flow of the first flow meter 220, the current detection heat value of the first calorimeter 230, the current detection flow of the second flow meter 520, and the current detection heat value of the second calorimeter 530 need to be obtained in real time, so that the first actual heat can be determined in real time, and the opening degrees of the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120 can be adjusted in real time, thereby ensuring the adjustment accuracy of the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120, and improving the adjustment accuracy of the gas inflow in the boiler. In addition, the embodiment of the present application limits the adjustment of the opening degree of the second valve 410 to the first target opening degree at a preset rate, thereby avoiding the rapid adjustment of the valve and the imbalance of the adjustment speed of the valve, and ensuring that the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120 can be adjusted in time according to the second valve 410, so that the actual heat provided by the gas in the boiler body 10 in a unit time reaches the required heat, thereby improving the adjustment accuracy of the gas inflow in the boiler.
[0031] The coke oven gas adjustment will be described below: In some embodiments, the controller is further configured to: if the coke oven gas adjustment signal is monitored, obtain a second target flow of the coke oven gas in the coke oven gas pipeline 50; based on the required heat, the second target flow, the current detection flow of the first flow meter 220, the current detection heat value of the first calorimeter 230, the current detection flow of the second flow meter 520, and the current detection heat value of the second calorimeter 530, adjust the opening degrees of the first sub-valve 2110, the second sub-valve 2120, and the third valve 510, so that the actual heat provided by the gas in the boiler body 10 in a unit time reaches the required heat.
[0032] In the above embodiment of monitoring the coke oven gas adjustment signal, the controller is further configured to: determine a second target opening degree based on the second target flow rate; control the opening degree of the third valve 510 to adjust to the second target opening degree at a preset rate; during the adjustment to the second target opening degree, determine a second actual heat provided by the gas to the boiler body 10 per unit time based on the current detected flow rate of the first flow meter 220, the current detected heat value of the first heat value meter 230, the current detected flow rate of the second flow meter 520, and the current detected heat value of the second heat value meter 530; and adjust the opening degrees of the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120 based on the second actual heat and the required heat.
[0033] In some embodiments, the determination of the second actual heat provided by the gas to the boiler body 10 per unit time based on the current detected flow rate of the first flow meter 220, the current detected heat value of the first heat value meter 230, the current detected flow rate of the second flow meter 520, and the current detected heat value of the second heat value meter 530 can be: taking the product of the current detected flow rate of the first flow meter 220 and the current detected heat value of the first heat value meter 230 as the first heat provided by the gas in the mixed gas pipeline 20 to the boiler body 10; taking the product of the current detected flow rate of the second flow meter 520 and the current detected heat value of the second heat value meter 530 as the second heat provided by the gas in the coke oven gas pipeline 50 to the boiler body 10; and taking the sum of the first heat and the second heat as the second actual heat.
[0034] In some embodiments, the adjustment of the opening degrees of the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120 based on the second actual heat and the required heat can be: taking the difference between the second actual heat and the required heat as a heat deviation; maintaining the opening degrees of the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120 unchanged if the heat deviation is within a preset deviation range; reducing the opening degrees of the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120 if the heat deviation is greater than an upper limit value of the preset deviation range; and increasing the opening degrees of the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120 if the heat deviation is less than a lower limit value of the preset deviation range; wherein the preset deviation range represents that the numerical values of the second actual heat and the required heat are close.
[0035] It should be noted that in the process of adjusting to the second target opening, the current detection flow of the first flow meter 220, the current detection heat value of the first calorimeter 230, the current detection flow of the second flow meter 520, and the current detection heat value of the second calorimeter 530 need to be obtained in real time, so that the second actual heat can be determined in real time, and the opening of the first sub valve 2110 and the second sub valve 2120 is adjusted in real time, thereby ensuring the adjustment accuracy of the first sub valve 2110 and the second sub valve 2120, and thereby improving the adjustment accuracy of the gas inlet quantity in the boiler. In addition, the embodiment of the present application limits the opening of the third valve 510 to adjust to the second target opening according to the preset rate, which avoids the speed of adjusting the valve too fast and the speed of adjusting the valve being unbalanced, thereby ensuring that the first sub valve 2110 and the second sub valve 2120 can be adjusted in time according to the third valve 510, so that the actual heat provided by the gas in the boiler body 10 in unit time reaches the required heat, thereby improving the adjustment accuracy of the gas inlet quantity in the boiler.
[0036] It should be noted that in manual adjustment, this process requires higher experience and skills of the operator, and the operation is complicated. For example, when the gas pressure fluctuates suddenly or the calorific value changes, the operator needs to quickly identify the problem and manually adjust the valve opening to ensure the stability of the boiler operating parameters. However, since the operator cannot monitor all parameter changes in real time and continuously, and manual adjustment has a certain lag, it may cause the boiler operating condition to fluctuate, and even affect the stability of the steam output. In addition, in the case of specific requirements for the overall proportion of coal gas in coal gas scheduling, the operator also needs to manually adjust the supply amount of different coal gas according to the change of coal gas ratio. This process not only consumes time and effort, but also easily leads to inaccurate adjustment due to the negligence or judgment error of the operator, thereby affecting the operating efficiency and safety of the boiler. Overall, the existing technology relies on manual operation, which has many inconveniences, including complicated operation, response lag, and insufficient adjustment accuracy, which is difficult to meet the requirements of modern industrial production for the efficiency, stability and safety of boiler operation. Specifically, the timeliness of manual adjustment is poor. The existing technology relies on manual operation, and the operator cannot monitor the changes of the boiler operating parameters in real time and continuously. When the gas pressure fluctuates suddenly or the gas calorific value rises, it cannot respond as quickly as an automatic control system. This lag may cause the boiler operating condition to deteriorate, and cause the overall adjustment of the gas medium balance to lag, affecting the stability and efficiency of the system. Then, the accuracy of manual adjustment is insufficient. Since it relies on manual operation, the existing technology cannot accurately adjust the gas supply and air volume according to the change of gas calorific value and the change of coal gas ratio. This inaccurate adjustment may not be able to quickly meet the user's demand, thereby reducing the efficiency of the unit operation, and even may cause safety accidents, threatening the safety of equipment and personnel. Finally, the labor cost is high and the risk of misoperation is large. In the context of reducing staff and increasing efficiency, the existing technology requires a dedicated person to monitor and adjust the boiler, which not only increases the number of post personnel, but also puts higher requirements on the experience and skills of the operator. At the same time, manual operation is prone to misoperation due to fatigue or negligence, increasing the probability of accidents, further affecting the safety and economy of the system. The operation is complicated and inefficient. Manual operation requires the operator to constantly monitor, judge and manually adjust the valve opening, which is complicated and inefficient. Especially in the case of specific requirements for the overall proportion of coal gas in coal gas scheduling, the operator needs to adjust frequently, which not only consumes time and effort, but also is difficult to ensure the accuracy and consistency of the adjustment. Therefore, the present embodiment of the application proposes the above-mentioned automatic control method.
[0037] It should be noted that when the unit load is maintained in a stable state, the blast furnace gas is the basic fuel, there is no separate valve control, only the total amount of gas can be adjusted, and it cannot be cut off alone. The amount of coke oven gas and converter gas can be adjusted from 0 to the maximum design amount. The system can learn and predict the current total fuel demand amount through historical data, and automatically adjust the amount of gas entering the boiler through the change of the actual calorific value, as follows: when adjusting the amount of coke oven gas, the coke oven gas calorific value remains unchanged, the mixed gas calorific value formed by the converter gas and the blast furnace gas remains unchanged, the corresponding valve of the coke oven gas flow control and the corresponding valve of the mixed gas flow control are adjusted, and the corresponding valve of the converter gas flow control remains unchanged. When adjusting the amount of converter gas, the coke oven gas calorific value remains unchanged, the mixed calorific value of converter gas and blast furnace gas changes accordingly, the corresponding valve of the converter gas flow control and the corresponding valve of the mixed gas flow control are adjusted, and the corresponding valve of the coke oven gas flow control remains unchanged. The data learning model can be introduced into the control system in the embodiment of the application, and can be continuously optimized and iterated during operation, can predict the valve opening, increase the feedforward control, and avoid the system parameter oscillation caused by manual feedback control.
[0038] It should be noted that the valve of the embodiment of the application can realize the function of flow control, the controller of the embodiment of the application can be a controller based on a DCS control system, further, the second valve 410 and the third valve 510 can keep the valve position unchanged before and after automatic control, the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120 can be controlled by the DCS control system after automatic control is put into operation, and keep the final valve position after exiting. Further, when the coke oven gas flow needs to be adjusted, the target value of the coke oven gas flow can be input on the DCS host computer in communication with the DCS control system, the automatic control device for automatic control obtains the signal, and then obtains the real-time flow signal through the DCS control system, so that the third valve 510 is adjusted to the target value at a preset rate. When the real-time flow of the coke oven gas reaches the target value, the position of the third valve 510 remains constant until a new target value is input next time. During the change of the third valve 510, the automatic control device can calculate the predicted position of the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120 in real time through the prediction model, and transmit the valve position signal to the DCS control system for valve position control. At this time, the position of the second valve 410 remains constant (the flow and calorific value of the mixed gas will change to a certain extent).
[0039] Further, when the converter gas flow needs to be adjusted, the converter gas is mixed with the blast furnace gas in advance and enters the boiler through the same burner by the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120. When the amount of converter gas changes, the automatic control device calculates the calorific value of the mixed gas and the mixed gas flow to predict the positions of the first sub-valve 2110 and the second sub-valve 2120. In order to reduce iterative calculation, the converter gas usage adjustment adopts a valve position control mode, that is, the target position of the second valve 410 is input on the DCS host computer, and after the automatic control device obtains the signal, the opening of the second valve 410 is controlled at a preset rate through the DCS control system. When the target value is reached, the position of the second valve 410 remains constant until the next new target value is input.
[0040] It should be noted that the coke oven gas flow and the converter gas flow are usually adjusted at different times. Further, when the unit needs to adjust the load, the first sub-valve 2110, the second sub-valve 2120, the second valve 410 and the third valve 510 are taken out of the automatic control, and the load is adjusted manually. After the adjustment is completed, the first sub-valve 2110, the second sub-valve 2120, the second valve 410 and the third valve 510 can be put into automatic control again, and the automatic control device can run again. The automatic control system for adjusting gas of a steel enterprise gas generator unit provided in the embodiment of the application can obtain gas related information through the automatic control device, automatically adjust the gas quantity by combining DCS, improve the operation efficiency, avoid the fluctuation of the power generation load of the unit caused by the adjustment of the gas, and improve the overall power generation efficiency of the unit.
