TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of energy-saving operation management of agricultural centrifugal pumps, and particularly relates to a pump efficiency calculation method and system for an agricultural irrigation electric centrifugal pump. BACKGROUND
[0002] The agricultural irrigation electric centrifugal pump is a common and important fluid conveying device, and is one of important energy consumption devices for agricultural production. Real-time grasping of the running efficiency of the centrifugal pump and timely discovery of abnormal changes in the efficiency are important contents of energy-saving and consumption-reducing management of agriculture and enterprises.
[0003] Due to the fact that the actual situation on site is not completely consistent with the expected situation of the centrifugal pump in design and selection, the efficiency of the centrifugal pump in actual operation may greatly deviate from the high-efficiency operation zone of the original design. The real-time monitoring device for the pump efficiency of the centrifugal pump can be installed to real-time grasp the running efficiency of the pump, and the pump in the low-efficiency operation zone can be timely adjusted according to the running efficiency, so that the energy consumption of enterprises in the fluid conveying link can be effectively reduced.

According to experience, many water pumps in such occasions are running in the non-high-efficiency zone, and even work in the low-efficiency state for a long time without knowing, which causes considerable energy loss in the agricultural field.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0057] In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, further detailed description will be made to the present application in combination with embodiments and drawings, the illustrative embodiments of the present application and the description thereof are only used to explain the present application, and do not limit the present application.
[0058] In order to solve the problem that small and medium-sized agricultural irrigation users cannot perform pump efficiency monitoring due to high cost, the present application provides a method for measuring efficiency of an agricultural irrigation electric centrifugal pump. Figure 1 A flowchart of the method for measuring efficiency of the agricultural irrigation electric centrifugal pump provided by the present application is shown in FIG. 1. Figure 1 The method for measuring efficiency of the agricultural irrigation electric centrifugal pump is introduced as follows.
[0059] S1, obtaining a first function relationship and a second function relationship matched with the centrifugal pump to be measured from a database.
[0060] In the specific implementation process, the first function relationship and the second function relationship associated with various types of centrifugal pumps are pre-stored in the database, and the matched first function relationship and the second function relationship can be found from the database according to the type of the centrifugal pump to be measured. The first function relationship is used to describe the mapping relationship between the pump head and the pump shaft power; and the second function relationship is used to describe the mapping relationship between the pump head and the pump efficiency.
[0061] In one possible embodiment, the database is established as follows:
[0062] Obtaining a performance data set of the centrifugal pump to be measured under a standard performance state; based on the performance data set, the first function relationship and the second function relationship are respectively established through mathematical fitting, and the key identification information of the centrifugal pump to be measured, the first function relationship and the second function relationship are associated and stored in the database.
[0063] In practical implementation, the centrifugal pump under test refers to a centrifugal pump of the same type as the one being tested, which has undergone standard performance testing. Standard performance conditions refer to the operating state of the centrifugal pump under test, determined through standard performance testing under the rated operating conditions (such as rated speed and pumping clean water) set by the manufacturer. The performance dataset includes multiple sets of one-to-one corresponding pump head, pump shaft power, and pump efficiency. Pump head refers to the energy increment gained per unit weight of liquid flowing through the centrifugal pump; pump shaft power refers to the input mechanical power required to drive the centrifugal pump shaft to rotate; pump efficiency is the ratio of the effective output power of the centrifugal pump (i.e., the water power converted into liquid energy) to the pump shaft power.
[0064] There are several ways to obtain performance datasets, which are described below:
[0065] The first method involves extracting the relationship data between pump head, pump shaft power, and pump efficiency from the performance parameter data or performance curves of the corresponding model of centrifugal pump provided by the manufacturer of the centrifugal pump being tested, in order to form a performance dataset.
[0066] The second method involves extracting the relationship data between pump head, pump shaft power, and pump efficiency from the test report issued by the testing unit after conducting standard performance tests on the centrifugal pump under test, in order to form a performance dataset.
[0067] After obtaining the performance dataset, the pump head As the independent variable, with the corresponding pump efficiency As the dependent variable, multiple groups in the performance dataset ( The data points are fitted with a univariate polynomial to obtain the first functional relationship, as shown below:
[0068]
[0069] In the formula: Pump shaft power; For pump head; c n Let be the constant coefficients determined through fitting, and n be the order of the polynomial.
[0070] After obtaining the performance dataset, the pump head As the independent variable, with the corresponding pump shaft power As the dependent variable, multiple groups in the performance dataset ( The data points are fitted with a univariate polynomial to obtain the second functional relationship, as shown in the following expression:
[0071]
[0072] In the formula, For pump efficiency; For pump head, is a constant coefficient determined by fitting; n is the order of the polynomial.
[0073] Through analysis of the actual pump performance curve, the order n of fitting is usually selected between 2 and 6, that is, the fitting accuracy can be ensured while overfitting is avoided. In general, when n≦6, the minimum variance of data fitting can meet greater than 0.99.
[0074] The first function relationship (pump head-pump efficiency relationship) and the second function relationship (pump head-pump shaft power relationship) fitted by the measured centrifugal pump, together with the key identification information (such as the manufacturer, pump model, and factory date) of the centrifugal pump, are stored as a complete record in the database of the network cloud platform. Through long-term accumulation, the reference performance function relationship (the first function relationship and the second function relationship) of centrifugal pumps of different manufacturers and different models is continuously stored in the database, and eventually a database covering almost all centrifugal pump manufacturers, pump models, and pump factory dates on the market is formed. Users can query, use, and download from the database through the network.
[0075] S2, obtaining the actual pump head of the centrifugal pump to be measured when running.
[0076] In a possible embodiment, the first fluid static pressure value of the first measuring point on the outlet pipe of the centrifugal pump to be measured and the second fluid static pressure value of the second measuring point on the inlet pipe are measured; the vertical height difference between the first measuring point and the second measuring point is obtained; and the actual pump head is calculated based on the first fluid static pressure value, the second fluid static pressure value, and the vertical height difference.
[0077] In the specific implementation process, the calculation formula of the actual pump head is as follows:
[0078]
[0079] wherein, is the actual pump head; is the first fluid static pressure value; is the second fluid static pressure value; is the vertical height difference.
[0080] S3, substituting the actual pump head into the first function relationship and the second function relationship respectively, to calculate the corresponding pump shaft power reference value and pump efficiency reference value.
[0081] In the specific implementation process, the actual pump head is substituted into the first function relationship to calculate the pump shaft power reference value corresponding to the actual pump head, and the actual pump head is substituted into the second function relationship to calculate the pump efficiency reference value corresponding to the actual pump head.
[0082] S4, obtaining the actual pump shaft power of the centrifugal pump when running.
[0083] In one possible embodiment, the electrical power of the drive motor connected to the centrifugal pump under test is measured; the motor efficiency of the drive motor and the transmission efficiency of the transmission device between the drive motor and the centrifugal pump under test are obtained; the electrical power, motor efficiency and transmission efficiency are multiplied to obtain the actual pump shaft power.
[0084] In practical implementation, the formula for calculating the actual pump shaft power is as follows:
[0085]
[0086] In the formula, This refers to the actual pump shaft power. The electrical power of the drive motor; The efficiency of the drive motor; The transmission efficiency of the transmission device.
[0087] Motor efficiency refers to the efficiency with which a drive motor converts input electrical energy into output mechanical energy. This efficiency value varies depending on the motor model, load rate, and manufacturer, typically ranging from 0.85 to 0.98. In practical applications, the motor efficiency can be obtained by consulting the corresponding product technical manual provided by the drive motor manufacturer.
[0088] In this embodiment of the application, the measured motor power ( ), and successively deduct the motor's own losses (from (reflection) and transmission losses (by) The reflection ultimately yields the actual mechanical power transmitted to the pump shaft. In this way, low-cost and highly feasible indirect measurement of pump shaft power can be achieved without the need to install expensive equipment such as torque sensors.
[0089] Different transmission methods have different transmission efficiencies. In one possible embodiment, the transmission efficiency is determined according to the following rules based on the type of transmission device:
[0090] When the transmission device is a direct-drive structure, the transmission efficiency is taken as 1.0;
[0091] When the transmission device is a coupling, the transmission efficiency is between 0.95 and 0.98.
[0092] When the transmission device is a V-belt, the transmission efficiency is between 0.9 and 0.95.
[0093] When the transmission device is a flat belt, the transmission efficiency is 0.85.
[0094] In the embodiments of the present application, the recommended efficiency value range of different transmission types (direct connection, coupling, triangular belt, flat belt) (such as 1.0 for direct connection, 0.95-0.98 for coupling, etc.) is defined in advance, and the complex field transmission loss evaluation is converted into a simple type selection and numerical substitution problem. The implementer does not need to perform professional testing or complex calculation, and can quickly and uniformly determine the transmission efficiency parameter, greatly reducing the complexity of field implementation and the technical requirements for the operator.
[0095] S5, based on the pump shaft power reference value, the pump efficiency reference value and the actual pump shaft power, the actual pump efficiency of the centrifugal pump to be measured is calculated and obtained.
[0096] In the specific implementation process, the calculation formula of the actual pump efficiency is as follows:
[0097]
[0098] Among them, is the actual pump efficiency; is the pump shaft power reference value; is the pump efficiency reference value; is the actual pump shaft power.
[0099] Taking the type of the measured centrifugal pump as an example, the type of the measured centrifugal pump is 8SA-10 (S200-63), the actual pump head of the measured centrifugal pump is 67mH2O, the power of the driving motor is 70.1kW, in the embodiment, the measured centrifugal pump and the driving motor adopt the direct connection mode of the coupling, therefore the value of the transmission efficiency is 0.97. In the embodiment, the driving motor adopts Y280S-2 type 75kW three-phase asynchronous motor, according to the product technical manual, the value of the motor efficiency is 0.92. The height difference between the first measuring point and the second measuring point is 0. Adopting the agricultural irrigation electric centrifugal pump efficiency measuring method provided in the present application, the pump shaft power reference value is 56.1kW, the pump efficiency reference value is 78.5%, and the actual pump efficiency of the measured centrifugal pump is 70.3%.
[0100] According to the principle of fluid mechanics, for a fluid conveying pipeline system with a certain state, the fluid pressure at the inlet of the pipeline and the pipeline flow rate present a monotonic corresponding relationship. For the actual pipeline system existing in the field, when the state of the flow control valve is unchanged, the pipeline flow rate should also be the same when the system inlet fluid pressure is the same. Therefore, the present application provides an agricultural irrigation electric centrifugal pump efficiency measuring method, which uses a comparative calculation method to calculate the efficiency of the actual centrifugal pump in the field by using part of the actual operating parameters of the pump measured on site according to the performance parameters of the same type standard centrifugal pump.
