Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of fluid control technology, and in particular to a multi-condition intelligent control system and method for a circulating water pump hydraulic butterfly valve. Background Technology
[0002] In industrial circulating water systems, hydraulic butterfly valves are key control devices whose performance directly affects the operating efficiency and safety of the entire system. Traditional hydraulic butterfly valve control systems mainly use simple on / off control or proportional control, which cannot adapt to complex and ever-changing operating conditions.
[0003] Existing circulating water pump hydraulic butterfly valve control systems have significant limitations when switching between multiple operating conditions. These limitations mainly manifest as delayed operating condition identification, rigid parameter adjustment, and lack of energy efficiency coordination. Traditional systems often use fixed thresholds or manual switching modes, which cannot identify the dynamic changes of complex operating conditions such as centrifugal pumps, axial flow pumps, or variable frequency speed regulation in real time. This results in parameters such as valve opening speed and holding pressure not being able to adaptively adjust according to actual operating conditions, often leading to energy waste or unstable operation. In addition, traditional systems lack system-level energy efficiency optimization mechanisms. The linkage control between pump sets and valves is limited to the basic start-stop level, failing to form a full-process energy efficiency coordination management system. This makes it difficult to achieve energy-saving goals and directly limits the flexibility and efficiency of the system in different operating scenarios.
[0004] To address the aforementioned shortcomings, this solution achieves fundamental improvements through a multi-condition adaptive control module. By integrating an intelligent condition identification unit, it utilizes high-precision pressure sensors, flow meters, and vibration sensors to collect system operation data in real time. Edge computing nodes, based on condition mode recognition algorithms, enable millisecond-level condition switching, accurately identifying operating modes such as centrifugal pumps, axial flow pumps, and variable frequency speed control. A parameter dynamic optimization unit, combining a digital twin model and neural network algorithms, dynamically adjusts parameters such as valve opening speed and holding pressure according to real-time operating conditions, ensuring the system is always in optimal operating condition. The energy efficiency collaborative management unit, through a power monitoring module and energy efficiency analysis chip, links pump sets and valves to achieve system-level energy efficiency optimization, eliminating energy waste caused by fixed parameters in traditional systems, improving the system's adaptability to multiple operating conditions, and significantly enhancing the system's flexibility and energy efficiency.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are: 1. Existing traditional circulating water pump hydraulic butterfly valve control systems have significant limitations when switching between multiple operating conditions. These limitations primarily manifest as delayed operating condition identification, rigid parameter adjustment, and a lack of energy efficiency coordination. Traditional systems often employ fixed thresholds or manual switching modes, failing to recognize the dynamic changes in complex operating conditions such as centrifugal pumps, axial flow pumps, or variable frequency speed control in real time. This results in parameters such as valve opening speed and holding pressure failing to adaptively adjust according to actual operating conditions, often leading to energy waste or operational instability. Furthermore, traditional systems lack a system-level energy efficiency optimization mechanism; the linkage control between pump units and valves is limited to basic start-stop levels, failing to achieve full-process energy efficiency coordination management and thus hindering the achievement of energy-saving goals. This directly limits the system's flexibility and efficiency under different operating scenarios. This solution addresses these limitations by implementing a multi-condition adaptive control module to achieve... This fundamental improvement integrates an intelligent operating condition identification unit, utilizing high-precision pressure sensors, flow meters, and vibration sensors to collect system operation data in real time. Edge computing nodes, based on operating condition mode recognition algorithms, enable millisecond-level operating condition switching, accurately identifying operating modes such as centrifugal pumps, axial flow pumps, and variable frequency speed control. A dynamic parameter optimization unit, combining a digital twin model and neural network algorithms, dynamically adjusts parameters such as valve opening speed and pressure holding based on real-time operating conditions, ensuring the system is always in optimal operating condition. The energy efficiency collaborative management unit, through a power monitoring module and energy efficiency analysis chip, links pump units and valves to achieve system-level energy efficiency optimization, eliminating energy waste caused by fixed parameters in traditional systems, improving the system's adaptability to multiple operating conditions, and significantly enhancing the system's flexibility and energy efficiency. 2. Existing traditional circulating water pump hydraulic butterfly valve control systems have significant shortcomings in fault diagnosis and fault tolerance. Fault diagnosis relies heavily on manual experience or basic sensor signals, lacking precise location capabilities, often resulting in misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis, leading to low maintenance efficiency. Furthermore, traditional systems lack self-recovery mechanisms; once a fault occurs, manual intervention or system shutdown for repair is required, severely impacting continuous system operation. This not only increases maintenance costs but also reduces system reliability and safety. This solution achieves a systemic improvement through a fault diagnosis and fault tolerance module, employing pressure pulse sensors, temperature field scanners, and leak detectors to monitor valve status parameters in all dimensions, combined with fiber optic... Displacement monitoring is achieved using grid sensing technology, accurately capturing minute leakage signals. The intelligent diagnostic unit integrates a fault diagnosis expert system and a signal analysis module, extracting fault characteristic frequencies through wavelet analysis algorithms to accurately locate the root causes of faults such as valve jamming and hydraulic lock failure, and triggering an alarm tiered controller to execute tiered early warnings. The fault-tolerant control unit constructs redundant hydraulic locks and emergency power modules, automatically switching to the redundant system when the main system fails. Seamless transfer of valve control is achieved through automatic valve group switching. This not only enables accurate fault location and rapid response, but also enhances the system's self-recovery capability through redundancy design, fundamentally improving the system's reliability and safety.
