Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of power plant instrumentation control technology, and relates to a three-level control and benchmarking management method and system for generator set water and steam instruments. Background Technology

[0002] The current management system for water and steam instruments in thermal power units suffers from severe hierarchical fragmentation. Data collaboration and efficient management are impossible between the group, regional, and grassroots power plant levels. Grassroots power plants can only record instrument data (such as daily extreme values ​​and number of malfunctions) in Excel spreadsheets, manually summarizing it to the regional company by the 5th of each month. The regional company then reorganizes the data from each grassroots unit (e.g., standardizing the statistical format) and reports it to the group headquarters by the 10th of each month—the entire data aggregation process takes over a week, and data accuracy relies on manual verification (in one quarter, a regional company's instrument normality rate deviated by 3% due to three grassroots power plants failing to report data). Furthermore, there is a lack of real-time data sharing channels between the three levels. The group headquarters cannot monitor the instrument status of grassroots power plants in real time. During one group inspection, it was discovered that a silicon content instrument at a grassroots power plant had malfunctioned and shut down for two days, but neither the regional company nor the group was aware of this in time, leading to the power plant operating with substandard water and steam quality, affecting unit safety.

[0003] The lack of a benchmarking management system further leads to uneven operation and maintenance levels: Currently, the effectiveness of instrument operation and maintenance in grassroots power plants can only be evaluated through "experience-based judgment," lacking scientific benchmarking indicators and analytical methods. For example, power plant A's instrument fault repair time is 4 hours, while power plant B's is 12 hours. However, due to the lack of a unified standard for calculating "fault repair time" (power plant A counts from the occurrence of the fault to the completion of the repair, while power plant B counts from the creation of the work order), it is impossible to objectively compare the operation and maintenance efficiency of the two. Furthermore, a benchmarking dimension of "instrument status - unit adaptation" has not been established. For instance, the support rate of instrument data for unit deep adjustment (the number of times deep adjustment parameters are adjusted based on instrument data / the total number of deep adjustments) of a certain power plant reaches 90%, while that of another power plant is only 60%. However, due to the lack of benchmarking analysis, the power plant with the low support rate cannot identify its own shortcomings and continues to use the old operation and maintenance model, resulting in a 1g / kWh increase in coal consumption during unit deep adjustment compared to the power plant with the high support rate.

[0004] The lack of visualization and control capabilities exacerbates decision-making delays: Instrument monitoring at grassroots power plants often uses local 2D interfaces, displaying only data from their own plant; regional companies need to open multiple Excel spreadsheets to compare data from various power plants. For example, to view the "ranking of instrument uptime rates for power plants within the region," they must manually calculate the uptime rate (number of uptime instruments / total number of instruments) for 10 power plants, then sort and organize the data, taking 1.5 hours; the group headquarters lacks an overall visualization interface, only able to understand the overall instrument status of power plants nationwide through static reports, unable to intuitively identify "regional disparities" (e.g., 95% uptime rate in the eastern region, 88% in the western region), resulting in a lack of data support for group-level operation and maintenance resource allocation (e.g., spare parts coordination, technical support)—once, a power plant in the western region urgently needed silicon content instrument sensors, but the group failed to promptly grasp the spare parts reserves in that region, and it took 3 days to transport spare parts from the east, delaying fault handling.

[0005] Furthermore, the lack of benchmarking for unit adaptability also leads to instrument data failing to effectively support the needs of the new power system: Currently, there are no benchmarking indicators such as "impact rate of instrument failure on unit deep dispatch capability" (number of times the unit could not perform deep dispatch due to instrument failure / total number of deep dispatches). One power plant was fined for failing to execute deep dispatch instructions from the grid dispatching system multiple times due to this impact rate being as high as 8% (the industry average is 3%). However, because it did not benchmark against other power plants, the root cause of the problem could not be found (subsequent investigation revealed that the power plant's instrument calibration cycle was too long, resulting in inaccurate measurement data). Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a three-level control and benchmarking management method and system for water and steam instruments in generator sets. This method and system are applicable to the collaborative control and benchmarking optimization of water and steam instruments at the group level, regional level, and grassroots power plant level.

Build a benchmarking system; Benchmarking and optimization of each grassroots power plant are carried out based on the aforementioned grassroots power plant-level data and benchmarking system; benchmarking and optimization of each regional company are carried out based on the aforementioned regional company-level data and benchmarking system.

[0008] Furthermore, the grassroots power plant-level data includes measurement data, status data, and operation and maintenance data of the grassroots power plant.

[0011] Furthermore, the indicators in the benchmarking system include status benchmarking indicators, data benchmarking indicators, and unit adaptation benchmarking indicators.

[0012] Furthermore, the status benchmarking indicators include instrument normal operation rate, fault repair time, and calibration cycle compliance rate; The data benchmarking indicators include measurement data accuracy and data completeness. The unit adaptation benchmarks include the impact rate of instrument failures on the unit's deep adjustment capability and the support rate of instrument data for the unit's rapid start-up and shutdown.

[0013] This invention discloses a three-level control and benchmarking management system for generator set water and steam instruments, comprising: The data acquisition module is used to collect data at the grassroots power plant level, regional company level, and group headquarters level. The first construction module is used to build a grassroots power plant-level dashboard based on grassroots power plant-level data; to build a regional company-level dashboard based on regional company-level data; and to build a group headquarters-level dashboard based on group headquarters-level data.

[0028] Example 1 The generator set water and steam instrument three-level control and benchmarking management method of the present invention includes the following steps: 1) Three-level data acquisition and transmission steps: Construct a three-tiered data transmission architecture at the grassroots, regional, and group levels to achieve real-time collection and secure transmission of all data: Data acquisition at the grassroots power plant level: Deploy local data acquisition terminals (hardware configuration: CPU Intel Core i5, memory 8GB, hard drive 500GB SSD, operating system Windows Server 2019), and collect data through the following methods: Measurement data: pH value, hydrogen conductivity value, silicon content, etc. are collected from the OPC UA interface of the SIS system at a frequency of 1 time / minute, and the data accuracy is retained to 2 decimal places; Status data: The instrument controller's Modbus-TCP interface is used to collect operating status (0-normal, 1-warning, 2-fault), fault repair time (fault occurrence time - repair completion time), and calibration records (calibration time, calibration deviation). The data is collected once every 5 minutes. Operation and maintenance data: Spare parts replacement records (spare parts model, replacement time), inspection records (inspection personnel, problems found), and unit adaptation data (number of times instrument failures prevented in-depth adjustments, number of times start-up and shutdown parameters were adjusted based on instrument data) are collected from the grassroots power plant operation and maintenance management system in real time (recorded immediately when they occur). The collected data is stored in a local database (MySQL, using master-slave backup) in the format of "instrument ID-data type-timestamp" and uploaded to the regional company via a dedicated VPN (Virtual Private Network, encrypted IPsec protocol). The upload frequency is: real-time data once per minute, and summary data (such as daily statistics) once per day.

[0029] Regional company-level data processing and transmission: Deploy a regional data center (server configuration: CPU Intel Xeon E5, memory 32GB, hard disk 2TB SSD, database uses PostgreSQL cluster), and after receiving data uploaded by each grassroots power plant, perform the following processing: Data cleaning: Remove invalid data (such as measured values ​​exceeding the instrument range, timestamp deviation > 10 seconds), and complete missing data (using linear interpolation, missing duration < 30 minutes). Data aggregation: Data within the region is aggregated by "day / week / month" (e.g., daily aggregation of instrument uptime and average fault repair time for each power plant); the processed data is stored in the regional database (retained for 1 year) and uploaded to the group headquarters via the group's dedicated fiber optic cable (1000Mbps bandwidth). Upload frequency: real-time data once every 5 minutes, aggregated data once a day. Data is encrypted with SSL 3.0 before transmission to ensure data security.

[0030] Group headquarters-level data storage and management: Deploy a group-level data platform (using a Hadoop distributed architecture, with a storage capacity of 100TB and support for horizontal scaling), receive data uploaded by regional companies, and build a four-level data index of "group-region-grassroots-instrument," supporting quick queries by "region, power plant, instrument type, and time range." At the same time, establish a data quality monitoring mechanism to automatically verify data integrity (data upload rate of each grassroots power plant ≥99%) and accuracy (deviation between measurement data and laboratory test values ​​≤5%) daily, and trigger early warnings for substandard data (pushed to regional company data administrators).

[0031] 2) Construct a three-level unified data dashboard; A data dashboard titled "One-Stop View of Water Vapor Instrumentation" was built using WebGL technology to achieve visualization and data drill-down for three-level control. Basic power plant-level dashboards: Display dimensions include: Instrument Distribution Visualization: Using the power plant site plan as a background, the installation locations of all water and steam instruments are marked at a 1:1 scale (e.g., the condenser outlet of Unit #1, the economizer inlet of Unit #2). Instrument status is indicated by color (green - normal, yellow - warning, red - fault). Clicking on the instrument icon will bring up the "Instrument Details Window" (including the measurement trend chart of the past 24 hours, status change records, remaining lifespan, and number of unresolved faults). Key data statistics: Displays core indicators such as "Daily instrument normality rate", "Average fault repair time", and "Number of exceedances". When an indicator is abnormal (such as normality rate <95%), it will flash to remind you. Task Management: Displays pending maintenance work orders (including work order ID, instrument ID, fault type, and deadline), and supports work order retrieval and status updates.

[0032] Regional company-level dashboards: Display dimensions include: Overall regional status: Displays the "Total number of instruments", "Number of normal instruments", "Number of warning instruments", and "Number of fault instruments" within the region. It also calculates the region's instrument uptime rate (number of normal instruments / total number of instruments) and displays it using dashboard charts. Benchmarking of grassroots power plants: The bar chart displays the comparison of core indicators of each grassroots power plant (such as instrument uptime, fault repair time, and data integrity rate), and supports sorting by indicator (such as sorting by uptime from high to low). Anomaly Focus: Highlights power plants with "more than 3 faulty instruments" or "normal rate <90%". Clicking on the power plant name will drill down to the power plant's basic dashboard. Trend Analysis: Displays the weekly / monthly trends of core indicators within the region (such as changes in instrument normality rate over the past 4 weeks), and supports prediction of trends for the next week (based on a linear regression algorithm).

[0033] Group headquarters-level dashboard: Display dimensions include: Group Overview: With a map of China as the background, the locations of regional companies are marked, and the regional instrument uptime is indicated by color (red <90%, yellow 90%-95%, green >95%). Hovering the mouse over the area displays "Total Number of Instruments", "Number of Faults", and "Mean Time to Repair". Regional Benchmarking Ranking: The benchmarking results of each regional company are displayed in a table or radar chart (including status benchmarking, data benchmarking, and unit adaptation benchmarking scores). The score is calculated as follows: (actual value of each indicator / industry excellent value) × weight (status benchmarking weight 40%, data benchmarking weight 30%, unit adaptation weight 30%). Key monitoring: List areas with "fault repair time > 8 hours" and "unit compatibility impact rate > 5%". Click on an area to drill down to the area dashboard, and then drill down to the base dashboard. Resource scheduling: Displays the spare parts reserve status of each region (such as the number of sensors in stock and the number available for allocation), and supports the issuance of group-level spare parts scheduling instructions (such as transferring 5 silicon content sensors from the eastern region to the western region).

[0034] 3) Establish a benchmarking system: Construct a three-dimensional benchmarking indicator system of "status-data-unit adaptation", and clarify the definition, calculation method and evaluation criteria of each indicator: Status benchmarking indicators: Instrument normal operation rate: defined as "total duration of instruments operating normally within the statistical period / (total number of instruments × duration of the statistical period) × 100%", where the statistical period is divided into daily (24 hours), monthly (30 days), and quarterly (90 days); evaluation criteria: excellent > 98%, good 95%-98%, qualified 90%-95%, unqualified < 90%; Fault repair time: defined as "the sum of (repair completion time - fault occurrence time) of all faults within the statistical period / total number of faults". The fault occurrence time is based on the instrument triggering the fault signal, and the repair completion time is based on the maintenance personnel marking "completed" on the platform; evaluation criteria: excellent < 4 hours, good 4-6 hours, qualified 6-8 hours, unqualified > 8 hours; Calibration cycle compliance rate: defined as "the number of instruments that have completed calibration according to the standard calibration cycle within the statistical period / the total number of instruments × 100%". The standard calibration cycle is set according to the instrument type (pH instrument 7 days, hydrogen conductivity instrument 14 days, silicon content instrument 30 days); evaluation criteria: excellent > 98%, good 95%-98%, qualified 90%-95%, unqualified < 90%.

[0035] Data benchmarking indicators: Measurement data accuracy: defined as "the number of times the measured value deviates from the laboratory test value by ≤5% within the statistical period / the total number of tests × 100%", with laboratory tests conducted once daily and compared synchronously with instrument measurements; evaluation criteria: Excellent >97%, Good 95%-97%, Pass 92%-95%, Unpass <92%; Data completeness rate: defined as "the amount of valid data collected within the statistical period / the amount of data that should be collected × 100%", where valid data refers to data with a quality label of "0-valid" and the amount of data that should be collected = the total number of instruments × the statistical period × the collection frequency; evaluation criteria: excellent > 99%, good 98%-99%, qualified 95%-98%, unqualified < 95%.

[0036] Unit adaptation benchmarks: Impact rate of instrument failure on unit deep dispatch capability: defined as "the number of times the unit could not execute deep dispatch commands due to instrument failure within the statistical period / the total number of deep dispatch commands × 100%", where deep dispatch commands refer to dispatch commands that reduce the load to below 50% of the rated load; evaluation criteria: excellent <2%, good 2%-5%, qualified 5%-8%, unqualified >8%; The support rate of instrument data for rapid start-up and shutdown of the unit is defined as "the number of unit start-ups and shutdowns based on instrument data adjustment parameters within the statistical period / the total number of start-ups and shutdowns × 100%", where the adjustment parameters include start-up and shutdown rate and water quality conditioner addition amount; evaluation criteria: excellent > 90%, good 80%-90%, qualified 70%-80%, unqualified < 70%.

[0037] 4) Benchmarking analysis and optimization steps: Establish a closed-loop benchmarking management process: "regular benchmarking - difference analysis - optimization and improvement - results promotion". Regular benchmarking: Monthly benchmarking: Before the 5th of each month, grassroots power plants shall complete the internal benchmarking of the previous month (such as the benchmarking of instruments in each workshop), generate the "Monthly Benchmarking Report of Grassroots Power Plants", and submit it to the regional company; the regional company shall complete the benchmarking of grassroots power plants in the region before the 10th of each month, generate the "Regional Monthly Benchmarking Report" (including the ranking of each power plant and the analysis of differences), and submit it to the group headquarters; Quarterly benchmarking: Before the 15th of the first month of each quarter, the group headquarters completes the benchmarking of all regional companies across the country, generates the "Group Quarterly Benchmarking Report", and holds a benchmarking meeting (offline + online) to announce the benchmarking results and commend outstanding regions / power plants.

[0038] Difference analysis: Indicator Difference Identification: For units with lower rankings (such as power plants with the lowest normal operation rate in the region), analyze the reasons for the differences in benchmark indicators one by one. For example, if a power plant has a long fault repair time (10 hours), data tracing reveals that: there is insufficient spare parts reserve (only 2 sensors are in stock, which is lower than the standard of "1 spare part for every 5 instruments") and insufficient skills of maintenance personnel (only 1 out of 3 maintenance personnel is proficient in repairing imported instruments). Root cause analysis: Using the "fishbone diagram" analysis method, we dig out the root causes from five dimensions: "people, machines, materials, methods, and environment"—for example, the root cause of insufficient spare parts is "the cumbersome spare parts procurement process in grassroots power plants (requiring 5 approval steps and taking 7 days)", rather than simply "insufficient budget".

[0039] Optimization and Improvement: Develop solutions: Develop targeted optimization solutions based on the root causes of the differences—for example, insufficient spare parts: regional companies establish a "regional spare parts sharing warehouse" (stocking commonly used spare parts, such as sensors and electrodes), and simplify the procurement process of grassroots power plants to "3 approval steps, with a time of ≤3 days"; insufficient operation and maintenance skills: the group organizes "imported instrument repair training courses" once a month, and those who pass the assessment are allowed to work. Tracking Implementation: The optimized plan clearly defines the "responsible department, completion deadline, and acceptance criteria." For example, the regional spare parts sharing warehouse needs to be built within 2 months, and the acceptance criteria are "common spare parts coverage rate ≥90% and dispatch time <24 hours." The regional company tracks the progress of the plan weekly and triggers an early warning when the standards are not met.

[0040] Promotion of Results: Experience distillation: Summarize the operation and maintenance experience of outstanding units (such as the operation and maintenance model of a power plant that combines "instrument inspection + remote diagnosis", which has increased the normal operation rate to 99%), and form standardized cases (including implementation steps, resource requirements, and effect data). Group Promotion: Promote best practices through the group's intranet, training meetings, on-site visits, etc., such as organizing regional companies to learn from excellent power plants or recording operation videos and uploading them to the group's training platform; at the same time, incorporate mature experience into the "Group Water and Steam Instrument Operation and Maintenance Standards" and enforce their implementation (such as incorporating "calibrating pH instruments every 7 days" into the standards).

[0041] Example 2 Taking a certain region of Huaneng Group (including 5 grassroots power plants, each equipped with 20-30 water and steam instruments) as an example, the implementation process is as follows: Level 3 data collection: Grassroots power plants: Collect instrument status (e.g., 23 out of 25 instruments in #1 power plant are normal, and 2 are in warning mode), measurement data (e.g., average silicon content of 15μg / L), and operation and maintenance data (average fault repair time of 8 hours), and upload them to the regional company via an SSL encrypted network; Regional Company: Compile data from 5 grassroots power plants (regional instrument normality rate 92%) and upload it to the group headquarters; Group Headquarters: Receives data from 10 regions across the country and establishes a group database; Data dashboard construction: Grassroots dashboard: 3D display of the distribution of instruments in power plant #1, with 2 early warning instruments marked in red (sensor aging), showing the trend of silicon content measurement data; Regional dashboard: Displays the ranking of instrument uptime of 5 power plants (#3 power plant 98% first, #5 power plant 85% last), and you can drill down to view specific faulty instruments in #5 power plant; Group dashboard: Displays the ranking of instrument normalization rate in 10 regions (6th in this region), and indicates the difference between this region and the first place (6%). Application of benchmarking system: Status benchmark: The repair time for the fault at power plant #5 is 12 hours (8 hours for the region), because spare parts need to be transferred from the regional warehouse, which takes 4 hours. Data benchmarking: The accuracy of measurement data at power plant #2 was 88% (regional average 95%), due to the excessively long calibration cycle (3 months / time, compared to the standard of 1 month / time). Unit adaptation standards: #4 Power plant instrument failures have a 5% impact rate on deep adjustment (regional average 2%), due to frequent failures of silicon content instruments; Optimization and Improvement: For Power Plant #5: A spare parts warehouse was set up at Power Plant #5 in the region, reducing the fault repair time to 6 hours; For Power Plant #2: The calibration cycle was mandated to be adjusted to one month, and the data accuracy rate was improved to 94%. For Power Plant #4: Promote the experience of "monthly inspection of silicon content instruments" from Power Plant #3, and solve the problem of frequent failures; Quarterly benchmarking: The instrument uptime rate in this region has increased to 96%, and the group ranking has risen to 3rd.

[0042] In summary, this invention addresses the disconnect and lack of benchmarking in the three-tiered management and control of water and steam instrumentation at the group, regional, and grassroots levels by constructing a collaborative management and benchmarking system. Technically, it establishes a three-tiered data link of "grassroots data collection - regional processing - group storage," collecting instrument measurement, status, operation and maintenance, and unit adaptation data, ensuring security through encrypted transmission. It constructs a unified three-tiered data dashboard to achieve instrument status visualization and data drill-down. It establishes a three-dimensional benchmarking system of "status (normality rate, fault repair time) - data (accuracy rate, completeness rate) - unit adaptation (deep-shift impact rate, start-up and shutdown support rate)," conducting regular monthly / quarterly benchmarking to analyze the root causes of discrepancies and develop optimization solutions (such as regional spare parts sharing and skills training), and promoting best practices. The core value lies in achieving three-tiered collaborative management and control, scientifically identifying operational and maintenance shortcomings through benchmarking, improving the efficiency of group-level water and steam instrumentation management and control, and supporting the safe operation of units and the deep peak-shaving needs under the new power system.

[0043] Example 3 The generator set water and steam instrument three-level control and benchmarking management system of the present invention includes: The data acquisition module is used to collect data at the grassroots power plant level, regional company level, and group headquarters level. The first construction module is used to build a grassroots power plant-level dashboard based on grassroots power plant-level data; to build a regional company-level dashboard based on regional company-level data; and to build a group headquarters-level dashboard based on group headquarters-level data. The second building module is used to construct the benchmarking system; The optimization module is used to benchmark and optimize each grassroots power plant based on the grassroots power plant-level data and benchmarking system; and to benchmark and optimize each regional company based on the regional company-level data and benchmarking system.

[0044] Furthermore, the indicators in the benchmarking system include status benchmarking indicators, data benchmarking indicators, and unit adaptation benchmarking indicators; The status benchmarking indicators include instrument normality rate, fault repair time, and calibration cycle compliance rate. The data benchmarking indicators include measurement data accuracy and data completeness. The unit adaptation benchmarks include the impact rate of instrument failures on the unit's deep adjustment capability and the support rate of instrument data for the unit's rapid start-up and shutdown.

[0045] The module division in this embodiment is illustrative and represents only one logical functional division. In actual implementation, other division methods may be used. Furthermore, the functional modules in each embodiment of this application can be integrated into a single processor, exist as separate physical entities, or be integrated into a single module.
