Description
Technical Field

[0002] The vacuum system is an important part of the turbine condenser system. If the uncondensed gas cannot be discharged in time, it will not only occupy the steam side space of the condenser and affect the normal condensation of steam in the turbine exhaust, but also the oxygen and other gases in it will corrode the condenser heat exchange tube bundle and increase the supercooling of the condensate. In addition, oxygen dissolved in the condensate will also affect the quality of the condensate. In particular, when the air-cooled unit is started and operated normally, the volume to be vacuumed is huge, and the back pressure fluctuation of the unit is greatly affected by load changes, ambient temperature, wind speed, and wind direction. Ensuring the tightness and vacuum degree of the unit vacuum system is the key factor for the stable operation of the unit.
[0003] At present, most of the jet pumps in the condenser steam jet vacuum system of most power plants are fixed jet pumps. Under the condition of constant back pressure, the suction volume remains basically unchanged under different load conditions, which will cause over-pumping under low load conditions, that is, too much condenser steam-gas mixture is extracted, the vacuum is too high, and the power steam is wasted; on the other hand, if the vacuum is too high, the low-pressure cylinder exhaust steam will over-expand, which will reduce the efficiency and may even cause the low-pressure cylinder bearing vibration, seriously affecting the safety of the unit.

The drain of each condenser is returned to the condenser for recovery.
[0024] The first condenser 6 and the second condenser 7 of the vacuum system both have a water inlet for cooling water to enter and a water outlet for cooling water to be discharged. The water supply pipeline connected to the water inlet is provided with a pressure sensor 8, a temperature sensor 9 and a condenser cooling water inlet valve 16. The drainage pipeline connected to the water outlet is provided with a pressure sensor 8, a temperature sensor 9 and a condenser cooling water outlet valve 17. The water inlet and drainage pipelines of the condenser are arranged according to the prior art and will not be described in detail here. The pressure sensor 8 and the temperature sensor 9 monitor the temperature and pressure in the corresponding water inlet pipeline or water outlet pipeline, and transmit the data to an external DCS system.
[0025] Pressure sensors 8 and temperature sensors 9 are also provided on the air extraction pipelines of the jet pumps at each level of the vacuum extraction system. The pressure sensors 8 and temperature sensors 9 are transformed into transmitters for monitoring the temperature and pressure of the liquid in the cooling water pipeline and transmitting the data to an external DCS system. A condenser A side vacuum extraction valve 14 and a condenser B side vacuum extraction valve 15 are also provided on the first-level jet pump air extraction pipeline for adjusting the suction volume. The two vacuum extraction valves can be pneumatic valves or electric valves. When the system is in working state, the condenser A side vacuum extraction valve 14 and the condenser B side vacuum extraction valve 15 are opened, and when not in working state, they are closed.
[0026] The vacuum pumping system also includes an auxiliary steam manifold 2, which has a power steam pipeline 2.1. The power steam pipeline 2.1 is provided with a pressure sensor 8, a temperature sensor 9 and a power steam flow measurement device 11. The internal temperature and pressure of the power steam pipeline 2.1 are monitored by the pressure sensor 8 and the temperature sensor 9. The power steam flow measurement device 11 monitors the steam flow and transmits the data to the DCS system; the steam power steam pipeline 2.1 has a first branch 2.11 connected to the air inlet of the first-stage jet pump 3, a second branch 2.12 connected to the air inlet of the second-stage jet pump 4 and a third branch 2.13 connected to the third-stage jet pump 5, which serve as driving steam for each jet pump; each branch is provided with a pressure sensor 8 and a power steam regulating valve 10, and the pressure sensor 8 transmits the data to the DCS system. The control module reads data from the DCS system and issues instructions through the DCS system and the SIS system (safety instrument system) to control the opening and closing degree of the power steam regulating valve 10 corresponding to each pipeline, and control the steam pressure and flow entering the corresponding jet pump.
[0027] The third-stage condenser of the second condenser 7 of the vacuum pumping system has an exhaust pipeline for exhausting a small amount of non-condensable gas remaining inside it, and an adjustable valve 13 and a check valve (not marked in the figure) are arranged on the condensation exhaust pipeline.
[0028] The real-time data measured by the pressure sensor 8 and the temperature sensor 9 can monitor the unit's condenser vacuum, the pressures and temperatures of the condenser steam vacuum pumping system, and issue real-time instructions to automatically adjust the vacuum pumping system operation to achieve control over maintaining the unit's back pressure.
[0029] The control method of the condenser steam jet vacuum system is to obtain the pressure and temperature data of each pipeline through the set measuring points, and concentrate all point information on the DCS system for processing. The DCS system is an existing technology and will not be described in detail; the condenser steam jet vacuum system control system does not require the setting of a separate control cabinet. The control module reads the measuring point data from the DCS system, controls each valve according to the target back pressure value and the preset value of each level of steam extraction pressure, and adjusts the vacuum system in real time, so as to realize the rapid adjustment of the system air extraction volume according to the changes in unit load and back pressure.
[0030] When the unit is started, the condenser steam jet vacuum system and the standby vacuum pump operate simultaneously to quickly establish the unit vacuum; after the unit is operating normally, the condenser steam jet vacuum system maintains operation and the water ring vacuum pump is shut down as a standby; if the condenser steam jet vacuum system fails and stops operating, the standby vacuum pump is put into operation to maintain the safe operation of the unit.
[0031] When the system is operating normally, the control module automatically collects operating data through the temperature and pressure sensors or transmitters, compares it with the condenser target back pressure value set for the unit, and controls and adjusts the opening of the power steam regulating valves of each level of jet pumps in real time, adjusts the air extraction volume, makes the unit back pressure reach the set value, and ensures safe and stable operation of the unit.
[0032] After the system automatically gives the target value of the condenser back pressure, each actuator starts to adjust. In this link, the exhaust subcooling is introduced as negative feedback, and the appropriate exhaust subcooling is set to ensure the efficient operation of the steam jet vacuum system without over-extraction.
[0033] The specific control scheme is as follows:
[0034] (1) Setting the optimal power steam pressure value of each level of jet pump, and automatically adjusting the opening of the power steam regulating valve of each level of jet pump through the control module during operation, so that the jet pump operates in the optimal state;
[0035] (2) When the unit is started, the cooling water inlet and outlet valves are opened. The control module calculates the system water resistance according to the inlet and outlet water pressure, controls the opening of the cooling water inlet and outlet electric valves, and controls the water inlet flow. After the system cooling water runs normally, the control module sequentially puts the jet pumps of each level into operation;
[0036] (3) By monitoring the inlet and outlet temperatures and pressures of the three-stage jet pump 5, the control module controls and adjusts the opening of the corresponding power steam regulating valve 10 and the adjustable valve 13 provided on the condensate exhaust pipeline to ensure that the second condenser 7 operates at a slightly positive pressure and discharges the last non-condensable gas;
[0037] (4) By monitoring the inlet and outlet temperatures and pressures of the jet pumps at each level, the control module controls and adjusts the opening of the power steam regulating valve 10 of the jet pumps at each level to ensure that the pressure of the condensers at each level operates near the preset optimal value;
[0038] (5) When the unit load changes or the ambient temperature changes, the unit back pressure also changes accordingly. The control module monitors the condenser vacuum value in real time and sends instructions to each regulating mechanism to adjust the air extraction volume to quickly adapt to the changes and maintain the unit back pressure stable.
[0039] (6) When the condenser steam jet vacuum system is cut off, the control module issues a command to start the standby vacuum pump, and at the same time closes the condenser A side vacuum valve 14 and the condenser B side vacuum valve 15, the power steam inlet regulating valve 10 and the adjustable valve 13 of each level of jet pump.
[0040] (7) A standby water ring vacuum pump start-up switching module is provided to enable the selection of dual pumps to be put into operation or to interlock and start only one pump.
[0041] (8) By monitoring the vacuum status of condenser 1, when the vacuum degree is lower than the preset value, the standby water ring vacuum pump is started and the electric door at the vacuum pump inlet is opened.
[0042] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
