Description

Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

In the absence of further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprises a ..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device that includes the element.
[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a schematic diagram of the architecture of a dynamic reactive power support system for a thermal power unit based on a double-fed system. The dynamic reactive power support system for the thermal power unit includes: a BEST machine 11, a feedwater pump 12 and a double-fed system 13.
[0039] One end of the BEST machine 11 is connected to one end of the water supply pump 12 .
[0040] The BEST machine 11 is used to drive the water supply pump 12 and adjust the speed of the water supply pump 12 when the speed regulation of the double-fed system 13 fails. The water supply pump 12 is used to transport water.
[0041] It should be noted that the BEST machine 11 does not participate in speed regulation under normal circumstances, or when the BEST machine 11 has no steam source, the water feed pump is regulated by the double feed system 13. When the speed regulation of the double feed system 13 fails and cannot drive the water feed pump 12, the BEST machine 11 serves as a supplementary speed regulation means to drive the water feed pump.
[0042] The surplus power after the BEST machine 11 is delivered to the water feed pump 12 can be used to generate electricity and connect to the grid, thus reducing the plant's electricity consumption rate and increasing power generation revenue.
[0043] Further, see Figure 2 The BEST machine 11 is provided with a steam inlet valve 21 .
[0044] The steam inlet valve 21 is used to adjust the rotation speed of the water feed pump 12 and improve the operating efficiency of the BEST machine 11 .
[0045] It is understandable that when the dual-fed system 13 drives the feedwater pump 12 , the steam inlet valve 21 is fully opened or maintains a relatively large opening to reduce the loss of the steam inlet airflow, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the BEST machine 11 .
[0046] In addition, the BEST machine 11 can operate under rated design conditions with high thermal efficiency. Due to the stable operating conditions, the service life of the BEST machine 11 is increased.
[0047] Further, combined Figure 2 For the contents shown, see Figure 3 The BEST machine 11 is provided with a steam extraction port 31 and a steam exhaust port 32 .
[0048] The steam extraction port is used to extract part of the steam from the BEST machine 11 ; and the steam exhaust port discharges unnecessary steam from the BEST machine 11 .
[0049] Optionally, the steam extraction port and the steam inlet can be connected to a heater or a heat network. The number of steam extraction stages of the steam extraction port can be set according to actual conditions.
[0050] It is understood that by adjusting the opening degree of the steam extraction port, the steam flow rate in the BEST machine 11 can be adjusted, thereby controlling the load of the BEST machine 11. When the load decreases or needs to be adjusted, the steam extraction port can reduce the steam flow rate in the BEST machine 11 to avoid overloading or overloading of the BEST machine 11.
[0051] It should be noted that when the load of the BEST machine 11 is reduced or the steam pressure needs to be reduced, the steam pressure inside the BEST machine 11 can be adjusted through the exhaust port to prevent the adverse effects of excessively high or low pressure on the BEST machine 11.
[0052] The other end of the BEST machine 11 is connected to one end of a double-fed system 13 , and the other end of the double-fed system 13 is connected to one end of a power grid 14 .
[0053] The double-fed system 13 is used to drive the water supply pump 12 and to provide active power and reactive power to the power grid 14 .
[0054] It is understandable that the double-fed system 13 can provide active power to the grid 14, and can also absorb active power to drive the feedwater pump 12. In particular, during the cold start of the unit, the feedwater pump 12 is driven by the double-fed system 13.
[0055] Optionally, the double-fed system 13 can provide inductive or capacitive reactive power to the power grid 14, increase the dynamic voltage support means of the generator set, and alleviate the contradiction between the generator set's responsive voltage support and stable economic operation.
[0056] It should be noted that the BEST machine 11, the feedwater pump 12 and the doubly fed system 13 are connected by the same shaft system or through a coupling.
[0057] Further, combined Figure 3 For the contents shown, see Figure 4 The doubly-fed system 13 includes a doubly-fed motor 41 and a bidirectional converter 42 .
[0058] One end of the BEST machine 11 is connected to one end of the doubly-fed electric machine 41 .
[0059] The doubly-fed motor 41 is used to drive the water pump 12 by adjusting the motor speed.
[0060] It is understandable that when the BEST machine 11 has no steam source, the doubly-fed motor 41 operates in the motor mode, adjusts the motor speed, and drives the water feed pump 12 to operate.
[0061] It should be noted that the BEST machine 11 does not participate in speed regulation normally, and only participates when a speed regulation failure occurs in the doubly fed generator 41. The feedwater pump speed is adjusted by adjusting the opening of the steam inlet valve 21 to change the feedwater pump load power.
[0062] In addition, when the output mechanical power of the BEST machine 11 is greater than the load power consumed by the water feed pump 12 , the remaining power of the shaft system is converted into electric power by the doubly-fed motor 41 and transmitted to the grid 14 .
[0063] The rotor winding of the doubly-fed generator 41 is connected to one end of the bidirectional converter 42 , and the stator winding of the doubly-fed generator 41 is connected to one end of the power grid 14 .
[0064] The bidirectional converter 42 is used to adjust the rotation speed of the doubly-fed generator 41 and provide active power and reactive power to the power grid 14 .
[0065] It can be understood that the rotor winding of the doubly fed motor 41 is connected to the bidirectional converter 42, and the electrical part of the rotor winding realizes excitation. The power difference between the BEST machine 11 and the water supply pump 12 is absorbed or provided through excitation regulation, and the differential power is exchanged with the power grid 14, thereby realizing load regulation of the water supply pump 14.
[0066] In addition, the operation of the doubly fed generator 41 as a motor in motor mode and the operation of generating electricity and connecting to the grid are automatically controlled by the bidirectional converter 42 by exciting the rotor of the doubly fed generator 41. The goal is to adjust the operating speed of the water supply pump 12 to match the water supply demand of the unit and generate electricity and connect to the grid with the remaining power, thereby reducing the plant's power consumption rate and increasing the income from electricity sales.
[0067] The other end of the bidirectional converter 42 is connected to the power grid 14 .
[0068] It should be noted that when the grid 14 requires voltage regulation, the bidirectional converter 42 can change the magnitude of the excitation current to change the voltage output of the doubly-fed generator 41. At the same time, the grid-side portion of the bidirectional converter 42 can also send reactive power to the grid 14 to regulate the voltage of the grid 14. When the reactive power provided by the doubly-fed generator 41 and the bidirectional converter 42 is insufficient to meet the dynamic voltage regulation requirements of the grid 41, the voltage regulation function of the generator set supplements this, thereby improving the reactive power response capability of the generator set and ensuring efficient, stable and economical operation of the generator set.
[0069] Further, combined Figure 4 For the contents shown, see Figure 5 The dynamic reactive power support system of the thermal power unit further includes: a transformer 51 and a medium-voltage plant power grid 52.
[0070] The other end of the power grid 14 is connected to one end of a transformer 51 , and the other end of the transformer 51 is connected to one end of a medium-voltage auxiliary power grid 52 .
[0071] The transformer 51 is used to transmit excess active power to the medium-voltage auxiliary power grid 52 .
[0072] Optionally, the 14th power grid is a low-voltage plant power grid.
[0073] It should be noted that the doubly-fed generator 41 can be connected to the low-voltage plant power grid. While reducing the cost of the doubly-fed system 13, the generated power can also be consumed locally, improving power efficiency. When there is surplus power, it is sent to the medium-voltage plant power grid 52 by the transformer 51, which can effectively reduce the plant power consumption rate.
[0074] Further, combined Figure 5 For the contents shown, see Figure 6 The dynamic reactive power support system of the thermal unit also includes: an energy management system 61 and a main generator 62.
[0075] The energy management system 61 is configured to send a reactive power difference instruction to the main generator 62 upon receiving status information of insufficient reactive power compensation sent by the double-fed system.
[0076] The reactive power coordination control between the double-fed system 13 and the main generator 62 is achieved through the energy management system 61 .
[0077] It is understandable that when the reactive power compensation capability of the double-fed system 13 is insufficient, the insufficient capability status will be sent to the energy management system 61, and the energy management system 61 will send the reactive power difference instruction to the main generator for reactive power difference compensation.
[0078] The main generator 62 is used to perform reactive power compensation on the medium-voltage auxiliary power grid 14 according to the reactive power difference instruction when receiving the reactive power difference instruction.
[0079] Furthermore, the dynamic reactive support system of the thermal unit also includes: a power plant.
[0080] The energy management system 61 is configured to send a reactive power compensation instruction to the double-fed system 13 upon receiving the reactive power compensation instruction sent by the external power grid.
[0081] The energy management system 10 adjusts the reactive power output of the power plant through reactive compensation instructions (ie, AVC instructions) sent by the external power grid.
[0082] The double-fed system 13 is used to adjust the reactive power output by the power plant to compensate the medium-voltage auxiliary power grid 14 when receiving a reactive power compensation instruction.
[0083] Furthermore, the dynamic reactive support system of the thermal unit also includes: a boiler.
[0084] The feed water pump 12 is connected to the boiler.
[0085] Among them, the boiler is used to heat water, that is, to heat water to a high temperature or high pressure state.
[0086] It is understandable that when the doubly-fed generator 41 operates in motor mode to drive the feedwater pump 12, it can operate as an electric feedwater pump when the generator set has no starting steam source to ensure that the boiler can be normally filled with water.
[0087] In summary, the dual-fed system drives the feedwater pump, thereby regulating its speed to ensure normal boiler water filling. The BEST unit is only used to regulate the feedwater pump speed in the event of a dual-fed system failure. In this utility model, excess steam power is generated and fed to the grid through the dual-fed system. This avoids load fluctuations and, consequently, does not affect the thermal power generator set, ensuring stable operation of the thermal power generator set.
