Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of monitoring and control of blast furnace ironmaking process, and in particular to a real-time monitoring and control system, method and method for blast furnace temperature and a method for predicting blast furnace temperature. Background Technology

[0002] The blast furnace is the core equipment in steel production, and the stability of its temperature directly affects the quality of molten iron, energy consumption, and production safety. As blast furnace ironmaking technology develops towards larger scale, higher efficiency, and greater intelligence, higher demands are placed on the precise sensing and real-time control of the production process.

[0003] Currently, traditional blast furnace temperature monitoring mostly uses thermocouple temperature measurement. Some studies have also attempted to incorporate infrared temperature measurement and acoustic temperature measurement technologies. However, due to the complex environment inside the blast furnace, including high temperatures, dust, and corrosive gases, existing technologies generally suffer from the following drawbacks: On the one hand, existing temperature measurement technologies struggle to balance response speed and measurement accuracy, making it impossible to accurately capture rapid dynamic changes in temperature within the blast furnace. Contact-based temperature measurement methods, such as thermocouples, have a measurement lag of 3-5 minutes, failing to meet the timeliness requirements of real-time control.

[0004] On the other hand, existing temperature measurement technologies have significant shortcomings in terms of measurement accuracy and anti-interference capability under complex working conditions. For example, thermocouple measurement is easily affected by electromagnetic interference, which can lead to data deviation. Its measurement accuracy is significantly affected by factors such as material oxidation and thermoelectric characteristic drift, and its service life is short, requiring frequent replacement.

[0005] On the other hand, control strategies based on existing temperature measurement technologies often rely on lagging furnace temperature measurements, making it difficult to achieve precise control of the blast furnace's thermal state.

[0006] Therefore, the traditional blast furnace temperature monitoring methods suffer from problems such as slow response, low measurement accuracy, and weak anti-interference ability, making it difficult to meet the real-time control requirements of blast furnace production. How to provide a real-time monitoring and control system for blast furnace temperature that can perform high-precision real-time measurement of blast furnace temperature and achieve precise control of blast furnace equipment is a technical problem that needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0007] In view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, this application provides a real-time monitoring and control system for blast furnace temperature, which can perform high-precision real-time measurement of blast furnace temperature and realize precise control of blast furnace equipment.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the first aspect of this application provides a real-time monitoring and control system for blast furnace temperature, comprising: The sensing transmission unit is used to acquire temperature signals through the fiber optic sensing unit and transmit the temperature signals to the data acquisition and preprocessing module through the fiber optic cable. The data acquisition and preprocessing module is used to receive the temperature signal, preprocess it to obtain temperature data, and send it to the furnace temperature monitoring and visualization module. The furnace temperature monitoring and visualization module is used to receive the temperature data and display the temperature data in a visual form; The furnace temperature control module is used to receive the temperature data and control the blast furnace equipment according to the temperature data through a fuzzy PID control algorithm.

[0009] As described above, by acquiring temperature signals through high-temperature resistant, interference-resistant, and corrosion-resistant fiber optic sensing units, the accuracy deficiencies of existing temperature measurement technologies are overcome. This technology demonstrates excellent performance, particularly in high-temperature and harsh environment monitoring, enabling high-precision real-time measurement of blast furnace temperature. Given the complex spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of blast furnace temperature, fuzzy PID control is used to achieve precise control of the blast furnace equipment, preventing amplified temperature fluctuations due to untimely adjustments.

[0010] As one possible implementation of the first aspect, it also includes: a furnace temperature prediction module, which is used to call the temperature data from the data acquisition and preprocessing module, and based on the temperature data, use an autoregressive integral moving average model to perform fitting calculations to obtain the predicted furnace temperature value at future times; The predicted furnace temperature is used to assess the operating status of the blast furnace or, together with the temperature data, serves as input to the fuzzy PID control algorithm.

[0011] As shown above, due to the significant temperature differences along the height of the blast furnace, the hearth region has the highest and most stable temperature (1450-1550℃), while the blocky zone has a lower temperature (800-1000℃). The temperature near the furnace wall is low, while the temperature at the furnace center is high; therefore, the blast furnace temperature exhibits a gradient distribution within the furnace. Furthermore, the furnace temperature is also affected by factors such as raw materials, blast air supply, and charging, resulting in dynamic fluctuations with a fluctuation period of 30-60 minutes and an amplitude of 20-40℃. Therefore, using the aforementioned autoregressive integral moving average model to fit and calculate the blast furnace temperature curve can yield more accurate predicted furnace temperature values. By knowing the temperature change trend in advance, the current blast furnace operating status can be analyzed and evaluated, providing users with early warning or optimization information. Simultaneously, the predicted furnace temperature can also be used to incorporate fuzzy PID control algorithms, enabling control actions to begin before substantial temperature deviations occur, effectively reducing control lag.

[0012] As one possible implementation of the first aspect, the predicted furnace temperature is fitted and calculated according to the following formula: ; in, Indicates the future Predicted furnace temperature at any given time; They represent the current time. , the previous moment ,...,forward The actual furnace temperature value at any given time, i.e., the temperature data; The autoregressive coefficients are obtained by fitting the above formula; They represent the current time. , the previous moment ,...,forward The deviation between the predicted furnace temperature and the actual furnace temperature at any given time; The moving average coefficient is obtained by fitting the above formula; The constant term is obtained by fitting the above formula.

[0013] As described above, by employing the autoregressive integral moving average model to perform set calculations on the predicted furnace temperature values, the linear trend and periodic fluctuations in the blast furnace temperature data are captured, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the prediction results.

[0014] As one possible implementation of the first aspect, the optical fiber sensing unit is arranged in a multi-point layer according to the internal region of the blast furnace, which includes: hearth region, dripping zone, softening zone, and blocky zone.

[0015] As shown above, by deploying the technology in layers and multiple points in different process areas, the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of temperature inside the blast furnace can be fully captured, overcoming the limitations of traditional single-point temperature measurement and providing a rich and comprehensive data source for the entire system.

[0016] As one possible implementation of the first aspect, the optical fiber sensing unit adopts a Raman scattering optical fiber temperature sensor; the optical fiber is a high-temperature resistant quartz optical fiber, and the outer layer is wrapped with a corrosion-resistant stainless steel protective sleeve.

[0017] As described above, distributed temperature measurement using Raman scattering fiber optic temperature sensors, compared to other fiber optic sensing technologies, offers advantages such as a wide temperature range (-200-1700℃), resistance to electromagnetic interference, dust, and corrosive gases, high accuracy (±0.5℃), and fast response (less than 0.5 seconds), meeting the requirements for blast furnace temperature monitoring. The use of high-temperature resistant quartz optical fibers and stainless steel protective sleeves ensures stable signal transmission, guaranteeing the entire monitoring system's ability to adapt to the harsh operating conditions of the blast furnace and achieve long-term, maintenance-free stable operation.

[0018] As one possible implementation of the first aspect, the fuzzy PID control algorithm uses the following formula for control: ; in, The adjustment amount of the hardware controlling the blast furnace equipment at time t; for The deviation between the actual furnace temperature and the preset furnace temperature at any given time; The proportionality coefficient is adjusted using fuzzy rules. The integral time constant is adjusted using fuzzy rules; The differential time constant is adjusted using fuzzy rules.

[0019] Therefore, by introducing fuzzy control rules on the basis of traditional PID control, the dynamic adjustment of PID parameters by fuzzy inference can improve control accuracy and response speed. When faced with different magnitudes of deviations and rates of change, it can automatically achieve the best balance between response speed and stability.

[0020] The second aspect of this application provides a method for real-time monitoring and control of blast furnace temperature, implemented through the system described in the first aspect, including the following steps: Temperature signals are acquired through an optical fiber sensing unit and transmitted to a data acquisition and preprocessing module via optical fiber. Temperature data is obtained after preprocessing the temperature signal; The temperature data is displayed in a visual format; The blast furnace equipment is controlled using a fuzzy PID control algorithm based on the temperature data.

[0021] As a possible implementation of the second aspect, it also includes: Based on the temperature data, the furnace temperature prediction value at future times is obtained by fitting and calculating using an autoregressive integral moving average model. The predicted furnace temperature is used to assess the operating status of the blast furnace or, together with the temperature data, serves as input to the fuzzy PID control algorithm.

[0022] The third aspect of this application provides a method for predicting blast furnace temperature, which involves collecting and preprocessing blast furnace internal temperature data using the system described in the first aspect. Based on the temperature data, the furnace temperature prediction value at future times is obtained by fitting and calculating using an autoregressive integral moving average model. The predicted furnace temperature is used to assess the blast furnace's operating status or to provide a basis for decision-making regarding blast furnace temperature control.

[0041] In some embodiments, the data acquisition and preprocessing module reads data from the sensing and transmission unit at fixed acquisition intervals. Further, the sampling interval can be configured differently according to the dynamic characteristics of different process zones in the blast furnace. For example, in the hearth zone and reaction zone where temperature fluctuations are more severe, the sampling interval can be set to 1-2 seconds to capture rapid temperature changes; in the upper part of the relatively stable blocky zone, the sampling interval can be set to 5-10 seconds to balance the amount of data and the system processing load.

[0042] In some embodiments, the system further includes: a furnace temperature prediction module, configured to retrieve the temperature data from the data acquisition and preprocessing module, and based on the temperature data, perform fitting calculations using an autoregressive integral moving average model to obtain a predicted furnace temperature value for future times; the predicted furnace temperature value is used to evaluate the operating status of the blast furnace or, together with the temperature data, serves as the input to the fuzzy PID control algorithm.

The predicted furnace temperature can be compared with a preset threshold or range. When the furnace temperature exceeds the threshold or range, a warning message will be displayed to the user to indicate that there is a furnace temperature risk at the time of the predicted furnace temperature.

[0054] In some embodiments, the furnace temperature monitoring and visualization module further includes a control component for displaying the control strategy of the furnace temperature control module, and for interacting with the blast furnace equipment by human control and sending control commands.

[0055] The furnace temperature control module is used to receive the temperature data and control the blast furnace equipment according to the temperature data through a fuzzy PID control algorithm.

All control execution hardware is connected to the software system via an industrial Ethernet network, supporting real-time reception and execution of control commands.

[0060] The second embodiment of this application provides a real-time monitoring and control system for blast furnace temperature. The following will refer to... Figure 2a The diagram shown is used for illustration.

[0061] Blast furnaces are the core equipment in steel production. Currently, traditional blast furnace temperature monitoring mostly uses thermocouple temperature measurement. This method is affected by the complex environment inside the blast furnace, such as high temperature, dust, and corrosive gases. It has problems such as a measurement lag time of up to 3-5 minutes, susceptibility to electromagnetic interference leading to data deviation, and short service life requiring frequent replacement.

[0062] Traditional blast furnace temperature monitoring methods suffer from problems such as slow response, low measurement accuracy, and weak anti-interference capabilities, making it difficult to meet the real-time control requirements of blast furnace production. This application employs fiber optic sensing technology to achieve precise monitoring and control of blast furnace temperature based on its spatiotemporal distribution characteristics.

[0063] The blast furnace temperature monitoring and control system described in this application consists of a hardware system and a software system. The hardware system includes an optical fiber sensing unit, a (transmission) optical fiber, data transmission hardware, and control execution hardware. The software system includes a data acquisition and preprocessing module, a furnace temperature monitoring and visualization module, a furnace temperature prediction module, and a furnace temperature control module. The optical fiber sensing unit and the (transmission) optical fiber together constitute the sensing and transmission unit.

[0064] The fiber optic sensing unit uses a Raman scattering fiber optic temperature sensor. Based on Raman scattering fiber optic sensing technology, it is suitable for a wide temperature range (-200-1700℃), is resistant to electromagnetic interference, dust and corrosive gases, has high accuracy (±0.5℃), and fast response speed (less than 0.5 seconds), meeting the requirements for blast furnace temperature monitoring.

[0065] Due to the complex spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of blast furnace temperature, the temperature varies significantly along the height direction, with the highest and most stable temperature in the hearth region (1450-1550℃), and lower temperatures in the blocky zone (800-1000℃). Temperatures are lower near the furnace wall and higher at the furnace center, forming a temperature gradient. Therefore, sensors are deployed in a multi-point, layered manner. Eight sensing points are evenly distributed along the circumference of hearth region 1, each penetrating 30cm into the hearth wall to monitor the temperature of the core area. In the dripping zone 2 and softening zone 3, a layer of four sensing points is arranged every 1.5m along the blast furnace height, for a total of six layers, to monitor temperature changes in the upper and middle parts of the furnace. Three sensing points are arranged radially in the blocky zone, located near the furnace wall to monitor the radial temperature gradient. Figure 2b As shown. (wherein) The (transmission) optical fiber uses high-temperature resistant quartz optical fiber, and is wrapped with a corrosion-resistant stainless steel protective sleeve to prevent the optical fiber from being damaged by high-temperature dust and corrosive gases, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the sensing unit.

[0066] The data transmission hardware employs an industrial-grade fiber optic transceiver combined with shielded twisted-pair cables. Temperature signals collected by the fiber optic sensing unit are transmitted via quartz fiber to the fiber optic transceiver outside the furnace, and then the shielded twisted-pair cables transmit the signals to the data storage hardware. The data storage hardware uses an industrial-grade server, configured with a 2TB SSD and a 16TB HDD. The SSD stores the real-time furnace temperature data to meet real-time retrieval requirements, while the HDD stores historical data for subsequent data analysis and traceability.

[0067] The control execution hardware is responsible for receiving control commands generated by the software system. This part mainly includes the hot air regulating valve, oxygen flow controller, and pulverized coal injection controller. The hot air regulating valve is an electric regulating valve, which controls the furnace temperature by adjusting the hot air temperature and flow rate; the oxygen flow controller is a mass flow controller, which optimizes combustion efficiency by adjusting the oxygen content, thereby regulating the furnace temperature; the pulverized coal injection controller is an S7-1200 programmable logic controller, which changes the heat input in the furnace by adjusting the pulverized coal injection rate. All control execution hardware is connected to the software system via industrial Ethernet, supporting real-time reception and execution of control commands.

[0068] The software's data and preprocessing module acquires furnace temperature data from the fiber optic sensing unit in real time from the hardware system and processes it to address packet loss and noise issues, providing high-quality data. The preprocessed data is then stored in the hardware and transmitted to the furnace temperature monitoring and visualization module and the prediction module in the software system.

[0069] The furnace temperature monitoring and visualization module adopts a B / S architecture, allowing staff to access it via a browser for easy operation. The module interface includes a real-time temperature value area displaying the sensor number, location, temperature, temperature deviation, and operating status in a table. A high-key alarm is triggered when the temperature deviation exceeds ±5℃ or the predicted temperature exceeds the threshold range. The temperature curve area plots temperature change curves for different sensor areas, supporting comparative analysis. The blast furnace 3D model area constructs a 1:1 scale 3D model, using colors to indicate different temperature ranges. Staff can rotate and zoom the model to view the temperature at each location, enabling comprehensive furnace temperature monitoring.

[0070] The furnace temperature prediction module uses an ARIMA (Autoregressive Integral Moving Average) model based on time series to construct the furnace temperature prediction model. This model is suitable for processing time series data with linear trends and periodic fluctuations. For blast furnace temperatures that are affected by factors such as raw materials, air supply, and material distribution, exhibiting dynamic fluctuations with a fluctuation period of 30-60 minutes and an amplitude of 20-40℃, the ARIMA model can effectively capture its dynamic change patterns.

[0071] The furnace temperature prediction formula is as follows: ; in, Indicates the future The predicted furnace temperature at any given time is used to determine whether the future furnace temperature will exceed the set range, providing a basis for subsequent control module adjustments; in this embodiment, the predicted furnace temperature is used... The timeframe is 5 minutes, meaning the furnace temperature is predicted 5 minutes in advance. They represent the current time. , the previous moment ,...,forward The actual furnace temperature value at any given time, which comes from the historical furnace temperature data preprocessed by the software system, is the basic input temperature data for model prediction. The autoregressive coefficients are obtained by fitting the above formula; They represent the current time. , the previous moment ,...,forward The deviation between the predicted furnace temperature and the actual furnace temperature at any given time is q = 2 in this embodiment. The moving average coefficient is obtained by fitting the above formula; The constant term is obtained by fitting the above formula.

[0072] In practical applications, the furnace temperature prediction module retrieves the preprocessed furnace temperature data (a total of 12 data points) from the data storage hardware every 5 minutes, substitutes it into the above formula to calculate the predicted furnace temperature value for the next 5 minutes, and compares the predicted value with the set furnace temperature threshold (upper limit 1550℃, lower limit 1450℃). If the predicted value exceeds the threshold range, the prediction result is immediately sent to the furnace temperature monitoring and visualization module.

[0073] The furnace temperature control module adopts a fuzzy PID control algorithm. Combining the nonlinear and time-varying characteristics of blast furnace temperature, it introduces fuzzy control rules on the basis of traditional PID control, and dynamically adjusts PID parameters through fuzzy inference to improve control accuracy and response speed.

[0074] The core formula for furnace temperature control is the output formula of the PID controller, that is, the formula for calculating the adjustment amount of the control execution hardware: ; in, The adjustment amount of the hardware controlling the blast furnace equipment at time t; for The deviation between the actual furnace temperature and the preset furnace temperature at any given time, if This indicates that the furnace temperature is too low, and it is necessary to increase the heat input (increase the hot air temperature, increase the oxygen flow rate, or increase the pulverized coal injection rate). This indicates that the furnace temperature is too high and heat input needs to be reduced. This is the proportionality coefficient, which determines the system's response speed to deviations. The larger the value, the faster the system response; however, excessively large values ​​can easily lead to system oscillations. This can be addressed by using fuzzy rules based on... The size is dynamically adjusted when hour, We set it to 1.2 to speed up the response; when hour, Use 0.8 to ensure system stability; The integral time constant is used to eliminate the static error of the system. The smaller the value, the stronger the integral effect; similarly, by adjusting through fuzzy rules, when... hour, To reduce the integral effect and avoid overshoot, use 100s. hour, Set the time to 50s to enhance the integration effect and eliminate errors; The differential time constant is used to predict the trend of deviation changes, adjust the control quantity in advance, and avoid system overshoot.
