Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of industrial intelligent computing technology, specifically to a boiler water-cooled wall temperature prediction system and method for dynamic load changes. Background Technology
[0002] Under the overarching context of "dual carbon" (carbon diversification and energy conservation), with the increasing proportion of renewable energy power generation, coal-fired units are undertaking more tasks related to deep peak shaving and rapid load changes. During dynamic load changes, boiler operating conditions such as fuel quantity, air supply volume, burner operation mode, and feedwater parameters change continuously, leading to unsteady changes in furnace combustion organization, flue gas temperature field, and heat flux density on the flue gas side of the water-cooled walls. As a crucial component of the boiler's evaporative heating surface, the water-cooled wall's wall temperature level directly affects tube wall strength, overheating risk, and safe unit operation.
[0003] Currently, power plant sites primarily rely on temperature monitoring points located locally on the water-cooled walls to monitor wall temperature. However, water-cooled walls have a large area, numerous tube panels, and uneven heat load distribution, making it difficult for a limited number of monitoring points to reflect the spatial distribution of the overall furnace water-cooled wall temperature and the hot spot migration process. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods can simulate furnace combustion, flue gas flow, and heat flux density distribution on heated surfaces in relatively detailed terms. However, if a complete transient CFD calculation is performed for every moment of a dynamic load change process and repeatedly coupled and iterated with the water-side heat transfer model, the computational load is large and time-consuming, making it difficult to meet the needs of extensive operating condition analysis and rapid on-site prediction.
[0004] Meanwhile, existing data-driven methods can establish rapid prediction models using historical temperature fields or operating parameters. However, directly predicting high-dimensional wall temperature fields over time is difficult, and it easily overlooks physical factors such as water-cooled wall heat flux input, water-side enthalpy propagation, working fluid property changes, and tube wall thermal inertia. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a boiler water-cooled wall temperature prediction system and method for dynamic load changes, combining heat flux density field, physical heat transfer calculation, and deep learning prediction to achieve rapid prediction of water-cooled wall temperature field and over-temperature risk under unknown dynamic operating conditions. Summary of the Invention

[0068] This method also includes a verification step: for some representative dynamic variable load conditions, the dynamic wall temperature field obtained in step S3 is compared with the Fluent-UDF online coupling calculation results or the wall temperature measured at the field points based on the same boundary conditions to verify the error, which is used to correct the thermal inertia time constant. And empirical parameters for heat transfer calculation in the Nusselt number correlation.
[0069] UDF is a wall temperature calculation program based on C language programming. At each time step, UDF reads the heat flux density on the flue gas side of the water-cooled wall and calculates the working fluid state and wall temperature on the water side according to the feed water flow rate, temperature and pressure. Then, the wall temperature is returned to Fluent as the wall boundary, realizing bidirectional iteration of flue gas side heat flux and water side wall temperature. The online coupling calculation result of Fluent-UDF is the wall temperature field obtained by this bidirectional iteration process.
[0070] Unlike the present invention, which uses a heat flux density field and a one-dimensional water-side model to quickly calculate the wall temperature, Fluent-UDF simultaneously couples furnace combustion, flue gas flow, and wall heat transfer. While this involves a larger computational load, it provides a more complete physical process and can serve as a high-fidelity verification result under representative operating conditions. The dynamic wall temperature field obtained in step S3 is compared with the Fluent-UDF coupled calculation result under the same boundary conditions, spatial location, and time point. The resulting error is used to correct the aforementioned thermal inertia time constant. The Nusselt number correlation empirical coefficient is used to improve the accuracy of the wall temperature calculation and prediction results of this invention.
[0071] During model training, a convolutional autoencoder can be trained first to accurately reconstruct the two-dimensional wall temperature field. Then, the low-dimensional features output by the encoder and the operating control parameters are input into the GRU time-series prediction model for training. Alternatively, the convolutional autoencoder and GRU can be jointly fine-tuned after initial training. The training loss includes the low-dimensional feature prediction error and the wall temperature field error after decoding, thus balancing the accuracy of spatial distribution reconstruction and the accuracy of dynamic trend prediction. Example 1
[0072] The prediction method of this invention first obtains the transient computational fluid dynamics (CFD) wall calculation results and DCS or user operating control parameters. The heat flux density field obtained from the transient CFD includes at least the water-cooled wall position, area, heat flux density, and time step information; the operating control parameters include at least the unit load, load change rate, burner operating status, feedwater flow rate, feedwater temperature, and pressure. After aligning the above data according to a unified time series, a two-dimensional unfolding process is performed according to the furnace wall position, tube panel geometry, and water-cooled wall unfolding method. The unfolded heat flux density field is then weighted and reconstructed, and area conservation correction is applied to obtain the flue gas-side dynamic thermal boundary corresponding to the two-dimensional calculation region of the water-cooled wall.
[0073] After obtaining the two-dimensional heat flux density field, the water-cooled wall is divided into multiple heat-receiving computational units i based on the arrangement of the water-cooled wall tubes and the direction of the working fluid flow. These heat-receiving computational units are discrete heat-receiving units formed along the geometric position of the water-cooled wall and the direction of the working fluid flow, used for physical calculations and water-side state progression; they differ from... Figure 1 The system's functional modules, such as the data acquisition and standardization module and the physical wall temperature calculation module, are shown. The heat flux density on the flue gas side within each heated calculation unit is integrated using an area-weighted method to obtain the heat absorption power of that calculation unit at the corresponding time step.
[0074] Subsequently, using the heat absorption power of each heated calculation unit as the thermal boundary for water-side heat transfer calculation, a one-dimensional finite volume calculation is established along the working fluid flow direction. Inlet enthalpy and water-side state variables are transferred between adjacent heated calculation units according to the flow direction, and the working fluid enthalpy, temperature, pressure, and thermophysical parameters are updated based on mass and energy conservation. Density, specific heat capacity, viscosity, and thermal conductivity are obtained by looking up or interpolating based on the working fluid state, and the convective heat transfer coefficient inside the pipe is calculated using the Reynolds number, Prandtl number, and Nusselt number correlation formula. Furthermore, combining the convective heat transfer resistance inside the pipe and the thermal conductivity resistance of the pipe wall, an iterative update method with thermal inertia is used to obtain the dynamic wall temperature field.
[0075] After obtaining the historical dynamic wall temperature field, training samples are constructed using the historical water-cooled wall temperature field and operating control parameters. The training samples are organized according to a sliding time window, where the wall temperature field and corresponding operating parameters of the past L time steps are used as input, and the wall temperature field of the next K time steps are used as prediction labels. The two-dimensional wall temperature field is spatially reduced by a convolutional autoencoder to extract low-dimensional state features that characterize the spatial temperature distribution and local hot spots.
[0076] The low-dimensional features extracted by the convolutional autoencoder are fused with control variables such as load change rate, burner operating status, feedwater flow rate, feedwater temperature, and pressure, and then input into the GRU time-series prediction model to obtain a low-dimensional feature sequence for future time periods. The decoder of the convolutional autoencoder then decodes these future low-dimensional features to reconstruct the dynamic wall temperature field under unknown dynamic load conditions, and outputs the predicted results for maximum wall temperature, over-temperature location, over-temperature risk, and wall temperature distribution. Example 2
[0077] The verification module can use the online coupled calculation results of Fluent-UDF under representative operating conditions or the wall temperature measured at field points as the verification basis. Under the same operating boundary conditions, Fluent-UDF independently calculates the high-fidelity dynamic wall temperature field. The verification module receives the Fluent-UDF wall temperature field and the wall temperature field calculated or predicted by this invention, and compares the errors according to the same spatial location and timestamp. The errors are then used to correct the thermal inertia time constant and the empirical coefficient of the heat transfer correlation. This verification process is used to improve the reliability of the model and does not require a complete online coupled calculation at every time step. Example 3
[0078] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the wall temperature prediction process combining a convolutional autoencoder and a GRU according to the present invention. Figure 3 As shown, the deep learning prediction process begins with the wall temperature field and operating parameters output from the sample database. First, a time window is constructed to form the historical wall temperature state. Then, the two-dimensional wall temperature field is compressed into the current low-dimensional features by the encoder of the convolutional autoencoder. The GRU time series prediction module predicts the future low-dimensional features based on the historical low-dimensional state and operating control parameters. Finally, the future low-dimensional features are restored to the wall temperature field by the decoder of the convolutional autoencoder, and the result output module outputs the maximum wall temperature, over-temperature risk, and prediction results. Example 4
[0079] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the mapping relationship between CFD wall mesh elements and regular mesh elements in this invention. For example... Figure 4 As shown, for each regular grid cell Using its center as a reference, select CFD wall mesh elements f within a neighborhood radius R, based on the distance between the center of the regular mesh element and the center of each CFD wall mesh element. By combining the area and heat flux density of the CFD wall mesh cells, a weighted calculation is performed, thereby mapping the CFD wall calculation results to regular mesh cells to form a regularized two-dimensional heat flux density field.
[0080] When in use, the working principle of this invention can be summarized as the technical path of "physical calculation to generate high-fidelity samples → spatial dimensionality reduction to extract core features → temporal prediction mapping dynamic evolution → high-fidelity verification closed-loop correction".
[0081] Specifically, this invention first obtains the unstructured wall heat flux density field calculated by transient CFD, and then normalizes it into a time-aligned, spatially regular two-dimensional dynamic heat flux density field through area-weighted interpolation and global area conservation correction. This normalization process ensures the integrity and consistency of the thermal boundary data.
[0082] Secondly, based on the standardized heat flux density field, the heat-receiving calculation units divided along the working fluid flow direction of the water-cooled wall are used as discrete control volumes. The working fluid state is advanced by solving the mass conservation and energy conservation equations. Combined with the calculation of the convective heat transfer coefficient inside the pipe and the iterative update of the pipe wall thermal inertia, a physically driven dynamic wall temperature field is obtained. This physical calculation process fully considers the changes in working fluid properties with pressure and enthalpy, the heat transfer characteristics under different flow states, and the hysteresis effect of pipe wall heat capacity on wall temperature changes, ensuring the physical consistency of the sample data.
[0083] Then, a convolutional autoencoder is used to spatially reduce the dimensionality of the high-dimensional wall temperature field, extracting low-dimensional feature vectors that characterize the spatial temperature distribution and local hotspots. These low-dimensional feature vectors, along with the operating control parameters, are then input into a GRU time-series prediction model to predict the low-dimensional feature vectors for future time steps. Finally, the wall temperature field is reconstructed using a decoder. This "spatial dimensionality reduction + time-series prediction" architecture effectively solves the problems of parameter explosion and training difficulties caused by direct prediction of high-dimensional fields.
[0084] Finally, the verification module uses high-fidelity Fluent-UDF coupled calculation results or field measurement data to correct the thermal inertia time constant and heat transfer correlation empirical parameters in the physical calculation module, forming a closed-loop optimization of "physical calculation - data prediction - verification correction", which ensures the continuous accuracy and generalization ability of the system.
[0085] Based on the above principles, this invention can shorten the wall temperature field prediction time while ensuring calculation accuracy, and realize rapid and accurate prediction of the water-cooled wall temperature field under variable load conditions, providing technical reference for the safe operation of power plants in deep peak shaving and rapid load change processes.
