Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention discloses a flood control method for pumped storage power stations that involves water exchange between the lower reservoir's sediment trap and a dedicated reservoir, belonging to the field of water conservancy engineering and pumped storage power station flood control design technology. Background Technology
[0002] A series of new energy sources, represented by wind power and photovoltaics, are developing rapidly, with their installed capacity continuously expanding. However, due to the randomness and poor regulation capabilities of new energy power generation, their large-scale development requires the construction of flexible regulating power sources and energy storage facilities to avoid the adverse effects of the randomness and volatility of new energy power generation on the power grid. Pumped storage power stations, due to their advantages such as flexible operation, mature technology, economic and environmental benefits, and the ability to provide rotational inertia to the power system, are currently the most suitable flexible regulating power source for large-scale development, especially when combined with wind and solar power generation.
[0003] Some pumped-storage power stations are located in areas with severe soil erosion. During operation, these stations face problems such as siltation encroaching on the effective reservoir capacity and severe wear and tear on the generating units, affecting the project's effectiveness. To mitigate the impact of siltation, pumped-storage power stations typically use a closed reservoir basin method to reduce the amount of silt entering the upper reservoir, while the lower reservoir usually employs methods such as constructing a silt-retaining dam upstream of the main dam and setting up flood discharge and silt-removal tunnels upstream of the dam to further reduce siltation.
[0004] To meet the reservoir's capacity regulation requirements, the distance between the silt-trapping dam and the river-blocking dam is typically quite long, resulting in a relatively long spillway and sediment discharge tunnel upstream of the silt-trapping dam. In some pumped-storage power station designs, to reduce tunnel size and investment while ensuring engineering safety, the design standards for the spillway and sediment discharge tunnel are sometimes lower than those for the water-blocking structures. Simultaneously, to ensure the safety of the silt-trapping dam, spillways and other water-discharging structures are included. This design creates a hydraulic connection between the dedicated reservoir and the silt-trapping reservoir, leading to water exchange between the two reservoirs at high water levels. Furthermore, the pumping and power generation processes of pumped-storage power stations are primarily controlled by the power grid, introducing uncertainty. Therefore, when designing the flood control of the lower reservoir of a pumped storage power station with a silt-trapping dam, it is necessary to consider both the impact of power generation in the upper reservoir on flood regulation in the lower reservoir and the impact of water exchange between the silt-trapping dam and the dedicated reservoir. The superposition of multiple factors makes the calculation of flood regulation of the lower reservoir of a pumped storage power station with a silt-trapping dam significantly more difficult than that without a silt-trapping dam, and the flood control design of the lower reservoir has become one of the challenges faced in engineering design.
[0005] Existing mature flood control calculation methods for pumped storage power stations are mostly limited to single downstream reservoirs and are not applicable to pumped storage power stations where there is water exchange between the downstream sediment trap and the dedicated storage tank. For pumped storage power stations with sediment traps and water exchange between the sediment trap and the dedicated storage tank, flood control calculations for the downstream reservoir must be performed for two reservoirs: one is the sediment trap formed upstream of the sediment trap, and the other is the dedicated storage tank formed between the river dam and the sediment trap. Flood control calculations for the sediment trap need to consider factors such as the natural inflow flood process, the scheduling rules of the flood discharge and sediment removal tunnels, and the water exchange with the dedicated storage tank. Flood control calculations for the dedicated storage tank need to consider factors such as the downstream discharge from the upstream reservoir and the water exchange with the sediment trap. Furthermore, since the timing of the encounter between the natural flood and the downstream discharge from the upstream reservoir, as well as the circulating water volume in the dedicated storage tank, are random, from the perspective of ensuring project safety, it is necessary to find the most unfavorable encounter scenario and determine the design flood level and check flood level of the sediment trap and the river dam. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The main purpose of this application is to provide a solution to the problems in the prior art.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution: According to a first aspect of the present invention, the present invention claims protection for a flood control method for a pumped-storage power station involving water exchange between a lower reservoir and a dedicated reservoir, the method comprising: S1. Construct an engineering parameter database to structurally store the physical and hydraulic characteristic parameters of the pumped storage power station. The physical and hydraulic characteristic parameters include at least the natural flood hydrograph at the dam site, the storage capacity curve of the silt-trapping reservoir, the storage capacity curve of the dedicated reservoir, the discharge curve of the dam's spillway structure, the normal water level and the dead water level, and the rated power generation flow. S2, based on the parameters stored in the engineering parameter database, by discretizing and combining multiple uncertain factors affecting the flood control results, a state space set consisting of multiple independent calculation conditions covering all potential unfavorable combinations is constructed. S3, for each calculation condition in the state space set, nested iterative calculations are performed within the main time loop that advances over a preset time period to dynamically calculate the water balance between the sediment-trapping reservoir and the special reservoir throughout the flood process, analyze the dynamic water exchange between the two reservoirs through the spillway at the top of the sediment-trapping dam that is driven by the water level difference between the two, and output the highest water level of the sediment-trapping reservoir and the special reservoir during the entire flood process under each calculation condition; S4. Receive and store the highest water level under all calculation conditions, and after all calculation conditions are completed, determine the flood control high water level of the sediment-trapping reservoir and the flood control high water level of the special reservoir by performing a global maximum value search on all stored highest water levels of sediment-trapping reservoirs and the highest water levels of special reservoirs respectively.
[0008] Furthermore, the state space set constructed by S2 is spanned by at least three mutually orthogonal dimensions, namely: the initial water level of the dedicated reservoir, the start time of the power generation process of the upper reservoir, and the duration of the power generation process of the upper reservoir. The process of generating the state space set includes the following steps: Based on the dead water level and normal water level of the dedicated reservoir, and according to the preset water level spatial step size, the initial water level of the dedicated reservoir is discretized to generate an initial water level vector. Based on the total beneficial regulation capacity of the upper reservoir and the rated power generation flow of the generating units, the maximum continuous power generation duration is calculated. Combined with the total duration of the natural flood process line and the calculation period, by changing the starting position and sequence length of the continuous power generation sequence, a set of power generation flag matrices representing all possible power generation scheduling schemes is generated. Each of the power generation flag matrices is a one-dimensional binary vector, and its element values represent the start-up and shutdown status of the generating units in the corresponding period. The initial water level vector is combined with the set of power generation indicator matrices by performing a Cartesian product to generate the complete state space set.
[0009] Furthermore, the nested iterative calculations performed by S3 in each time period include an outer loop and an inner loop; The outer circulation is used to solve the exchange flow of the spillway of the silt-trapping dam at the end of the time period. The inner circulation is nested within the outer circulation and is used to solve the water level of the silt-trapping reservoir and the water level of the special reservoir at the end of the time period, respectively, given the exchange flow assumed by the outer circulation. The external circulation uses the spillway exchange flow rate at the end of the time period as the iteration variable, while the internal circulation uses the water level of the sediment trap and the water level of the special reservoir at the end of the time period as the iteration variables, respectively. Furthermore, when determining the actual discharge flow of the dam within a preset time period, S3 applies at least one of the following constraints: Downstream flood control safety constraints stipulate that the total downstream discharge through dam structures must not exceed the upstream natural flood discharge at any given time; or The power station's operational safety constraints are implemented by adjusting the outflow from the dam to ensure that the water level in the dedicated reservoir is never lower than the reservoir capacity corresponding to its dead water level at any time.
[0010] Furthermore, the method also includes: When the natural flood hydrograph input during the construction of the engineering parameter database is the design standard flood hydrograph, the flood control high water level finally determined by the method is the design flood level of the silt-blocking dam and the river-blocking dam. When the natural flood process line input during the construction of the engineering parameter database is the verification standard flood process, the flood regulation high water level finally determined by the method is the verification flood level of the silt-blocking dam and the river-blocking dam. When calculating the aforementioned check flood level, an additional safety control logic check is performed before the start of the calculation for each time period: Check the water level of the dedicated reservoir at the end of the previous period. If the water level has exceeded the calculated design flood level of the dedicated reservoir, then forcibly set the power generation flag matrix elements of the current and all subsequent periods to zero to simulate an emergency shutdown of the unit.
[0011] Furthermore, in step S1, the discharge capacity of the spillway connecting the sediment-trapping reservoir and the dedicated reservoir is a function of the head, which is jointly determined by engineering parameters such as the water level of the sediment-trapping reservoir, the water level of the dedicated reservoir, and the elevation of the weir crest or bottom plate of the spillway. When the spillway is a spillway, the head and discharge capacity are calculated as follows:
[0012] In the formula, The water head represents the flow rate; a positive value indicates that water flows from the sediment-trapping reservoir into the dedicated reservoir, while a negative value indicates that water flows from the dedicated reservoir into the sediment-trapping reservoir. For the water level of the silt-trapping reservoir, For the dedicated reservoir water level, The elevation of the spillway crest of the sand-blocking dam. To improve the spillway discharge capacity of the sand-blocking dam, This relates to the relationship between the spillway discharge capacity of the sand-blocking dam and the water head above the weir.
[0013] Furthermore, the power generation indicator matrix is a column vector with n terms, where a value of 1 represents power generation during a period and a value of 0 represents no power generation during a period. For unfavorable considerations, the value 1 should appear consecutively. The matrix must meet the following requirements:
[0014]
[0015] In the formula, d i This is the generator generation status identifier for time period i. This refers to the hydroelectric flow rate of the upper reservoir. W sfd The amount of water available for power generation in the upper reservoir. Q FD Rated power generation flow rate, For calculating the time period, v 2 ( Z n (This refers to the reservoir's normal water level and corresponding capacity.) v 2 ( Z 2,0(This refers to the water level of the dedicated reservoir at the initial calculation time.) Z 2,0 The corresponding storage capacity.
[0016] Furthermore, in step S3, the formula for calculating the power generation reference flow rate for the preset time period is: ; Q fdi This is the sum of the power generation flow from the previous period; In step S3, the amount of water required for pumped-storage power generation that the dedicated reservoir needs to retain needs to be considered, i.e., the minimum water volume in the dedicated reservoir at the end of the time period. The calculation formula is as follows:
[0017] Furthermore, in step S3, to avoid causing man-made flooding downstream, the flow rate discharged to the downstream of the dam must not exceed the natural flood flow rate before the preset time period, i.e., the maximum discharge flow rate of the spillway structure at the end of the time period. The calculation formula is as follows: .
[0018] In the formula, For natural flow processes, Q psi,末 This refers to the discharge capacity of the flood discharge and sediment flushing tunnel at the end of the period. Q xs2i,末0 This refers to the discharge capacity of the dam's spillway structure corresponding to the water level of the dedicated reservoir at the end of the time period.
[0019] Furthermore, in step S3, the formula for calculating the discharge flow at the end of the time period of the dam's spillway structure is as follows:
[0020] In the formula, The average discharge capacity of the spillway of the sand-blocking dam during different time periods. The initial water volume in the dedicated reservoir for that period. The initial discharge capacity of the dam's spillway structures during a given period.
[0021] This application discloses a flood control method for pumped-storage power stations involving water exchange between a lower reservoir and a dedicated reservoir. Belonging to the field of water conservancy engineering and pumped-storage power station flood control design technology, it aims to solve the problem that existing flood control calculation techniques struggle to handle dynamic water exchange and multiple uncertainties between the lower reservoir and the dedicated reservoir. The method involves constructing an engineering parameter database to structurally store the power station's physical and hydraulic characteristics; generating a state space set covering all potentially unfavorable combinations based on discretization principles; performing nested iterative calculations for each operating condition to dynamically calculate the water balance between the two reservoirs and the exchange flow driven by the water level difference; and finally determining the flood control high water level of the lower reservoir and the dedicated reservoir through a global search. This invention, by systematically considering the flood process, power generation scheduling, and inter-reservoir hydraulic connections, effectively improves the accuracy of flood control calculations and engineering safety, providing a reliable basis for the flood control design of the lower reservoir of pumped-storage power stations with sediment-trapping dams.

Z 1max , Z 2max ,Right now , When the design standard natural inflow into the sediment-trapping reservoir is used, it is the design flood level; when the verification standard natural inflow into the sediment-trapping reservoir is used, it is the verification flood level.
[0057] Furthermore, the state space set constructed by S2 is spanned by at least three mutually orthogonal dimensions, namely: the initial water level of the dedicated reservoir, the start time of the power generation process of the upper reservoir, and the duration of the power generation process of the upper reservoir. The process of generating the state space set includes the following steps: Based on the dead water level and normal water level of the dedicated reservoir, and according to the preset water level spatial step size, the initial water level of the dedicated reservoir is discretized to generate an initial water level vector. Based on the total beneficial regulation capacity of the upper reservoir and the rated power generation flow of the generating units, the maximum continuous power generation duration is calculated. Combined with the total duration of the natural flood process line and the calculation period, by changing the starting position and sequence length of the continuous power generation sequence, a set of power generation flag matrices representing all possible power generation scheduling schemes is generated. Each of the power generation flag matrices is a one-dimensional binary vector, and its element values represent the start-up and shutdown status of the generating units in the corresponding period. The initial water level vector is combined with the set of power generation indicator matrices by performing a Cartesian product to generate the complete state space set.
[0058] Furthermore, the nested iterative calculations performed by S3 in each time period include an outer loop and an inner loop; The outer circulation is used to solve the exchange flow of the spillway of the silt-trapping dam at the end of the time period. The inner circulation is nested within the outer circulation and is used to solve the water level of the silt-trapping reservoir and the water level of the special reservoir at the end of the time period, respectively, given the exchange flow assumed by the outer circulation. The external circulation uses the spillway exchange flow rate at the end of the time period as the iteration variable, while the internal circulation uses the water level of the sediment trap and the water level of the special reservoir at the end of the time period as the iteration variables, respectively. Furthermore, referring to Figure 2In this embodiment, when determining the actual discharge flow from the silt-trapping dam to the river-blocking dam within a preset time period, step S3 applies at least one of the following constraints: Downstream flood control safety constraints stipulate that the total downstream discharge through dam structures must not exceed the upstream natural flood discharge at any given time; or The power station's operational safety constraints are implemented by adjusting the outflow from the dam to ensure that the water level in the dedicated reservoir is never lower than the reservoir capacity corresponding to its dead water level at any time.
[0059] Furthermore, the method also includes: When the natural flood hydrograph input during the construction of the engineering parameter database is the design standard flood hydrograph, the flood control high water level finally determined by the method is the design flood level of the silt-blocking dam and the river-blocking dam. When the natural flood process line input during the construction of the engineering parameter database is the verification standard flood process, the flood regulation high water level finally determined by the method is the verification flood level of the silt-blocking dam and the river-blocking dam. When calculating the aforementioned check flood level, an additional safety control logic check is performed before the start of the calculation for each time period: Check the water level of the dedicated reservoir at the end of the previous period. If the water level has exceeded the calculated design flood level of the dedicated reservoir, then forcibly set the power generation flag matrix elements of the current and all subsequent periods to zero to simulate an emergency shutdown of the unit.
[0060] Furthermore, in step S1, the discharge capacity of the spillway connecting the sediment-trapping reservoir and the dedicated reservoir is a function of the head, which is jointly determined by engineering parameters such as the water level of the sediment-trapping reservoir, the water level of the dedicated reservoir, and the elevation of the weir crest or bottom plate of the spillway. When the spillway is a spillway, the head and discharge capacity are calculated as follows:
[0061] In the formula, The water head represents the flow rate; a positive value indicates that water flows from the sediment-trapping reservoir into the dedicated reservoir, while a negative value indicates that water flows from the dedicated reservoir into the sediment-trapping reservoir. For the water level of the silt-trapping reservoir, For the dedicated reservoir water level, The elevation of the spillway crest of the sand-blocking dam. To improve the spillway discharge capacity of the sand-blocking dam, The relationship between the spillway discharge capacity of the sand-blocking dam and the water head above the dam; Reference Figure 3 In this embodiment, the overflow section of the dam is shown in the schematic diagram, and the crest elevation of the weir is designed.
[0062] Furthermore, the power generation indicator matrix is a column vector with n terms, where a value of 1 represents power generation during a period and a value of 0 represents no power generation during a period. For unfavorable considerations, the value 1 should appear consecutively. The matrix must meet the following requirements:
[0063]
[0064] In the formula, d i This is the generator generation status identifier for time period i. This refers to the hydroelectric flow rate of the upper reservoir. W sfd The amount of water available for power generation in the upper reservoir. Q FD Rated power generation flow rate, For calculating the time period, v 2 ( Z n (This refers to the reservoir's normal water level and corresponding capacity.) v 2 ( Z 2,0 (This refers to the water level of the dedicated reservoir at the initial calculation time.) Z 2,0 The corresponding storage capacity.
[0065] Furthermore, in step S3, the formula for calculating the power generation reference flow rate for the preset time period is: ; Q fdi This is the sum of the power generation flow from the previous period; In step S3, the amount of water required for pumped-storage power generation that the dedicated reservoir needs to retain needs to be considered, i.e., the minimum water volume in the dedicated reservoir at the end of the time period. The calculation formula is as follows:
[0066] Furthermore, in step S3, to avoid causing man-made flooding downstream, the flow rate discharged to the downstream of the dam must not exceed the natural flood flow rate before the preset time period, i.e., the maximum discharge flow rate of the spillway structure at the end of the time period. The calculation formula is as follows: .
