[0025] The technical solutions of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0026] According to the example embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, this application provides an integrated control system for a power plant. This control system may include a substation network monitoring system 1, an electrical monitoring system 2, and a distributed control system 3. The substation network monitoring system 1, the electrical monitoring system 2, and the distributed control system 3 share a station control layer network.
[0027] For example, the substation network monitoring system 1 is equipped with a substation network monitoring host computer 10, the electrical monitoring system 2 is equipped with an electrical monitoring host computer 20, and the distributed control system 3 is equipped with a distributed control host computer 30. The substation network monitoring host computer 10, the electrical monitoring host computer 20, and the distributed control host computer 30 can be connected to the substation control layer network respectively.
[0028] For example, the control system also includes a lower-level machine, which can be connected to the station control layer network and connected to the booster station network monitoring upper-level machine 10, the electrical monitoring upper-level machine 20 and the distributed control upper-level machine 30 through the station control layer network.
[0029] For example, the lower-level machine may include a protocol converter 80, a protection and control device 40, an electrical protection device 50, an electrical redundancy controller 60, and a process redundancy controller 70. For example, the protocol converter 80 may be a 61850 protocol converter. The 61850 protocol converter can be connected to the station control layer network and the electrical redundancy controller 60. The protection and control device 40 may include a line protection and control device 41, a busbar protection and control device 42, and a transformer protection and control device 43. The electrical protection device 50 may include a generator-transformer unit protection device 51, a high-voltage plant auxiliary power integrated protection device 52, and a high-voltage motor protection device 53. The process redundancy controller 70 may be a boiler / turbine redundancy controller.
[0030] For example, the line protection and control device 41 can monitor the lines of the substation to provide overcurrent and overload protection. The busbar protection and control device 42 can monitor the busbars of the substation to identify overload, short circuit, grounding, and other faults, and then disconnect the faulty busbar. The transformer protection and control device 43 can monitor the transformers of the substation to protect and control them.
[0031] For example, the generator-transformer unit protection device 51 is used to protect the electrical equipment of the generator-transformer unit. The generator-transformer unit protection device 51 can issue a warning signal when a fault occurs in the generator-transformer unit, thereby identifying the specific generator-transformer unit where the fault has occurred. The high-voltage plant auxiliary power integrated protection device 52 can detect voltage abnormalities and current differentials in the power equipment, thereby determining the fault in the power equipment. The high-voltage motor protection device 53 may include overload protection, short-circuit protection, undervoltage protection, over-temperature protection, and other protection functions to monitor and protect the high-voltage motor.
[0032] For example, the substation network monitoring system 1 can communicate with the lower-level machine based on the IEC 61850 protocol. The substation network monitoring upper-level machine 10 can directly obtain data information from the protection and control device 40 and the electrical protection device 50 via the station control layer network using the IEC 61850 protocol to monitor the protection and control device 40 and the electrical protection device 50. The substation network monitoring upper-level machine 10 can also obtain data information from the plant power supply 61 through the electrical redundancy controller 60 based on the IEC 61850 protocol to monitor the plant power supply 61. The substation network monitoring upper-level machine 10 can also obtain data information from the thermal process equipment 71 through the boiler / turbine controller based on the IEC 61850 protocol to monitor the thermal process equipment 71.
[0033] For example, the electrical monitoring system 2 communicates with the lower-level machine based on the IEC 61850 protocol. The electrical monitoring upper-level machine 20 can directly obtain data information from the protection and control device 40 and the electrical protection device 50 via the station control layer network according to the IEC 61850 protocol to monitor the protection and control device 40 and the electrical protection device 50. The electrical monitoring upper-level machine 20 can obtain data information from the plant power supply 61 through the electrical redundancy controller 60 according to the IEC 61850 protocol to monitor the plant power supply 61. The electrical monitoring upper-level machine 20 can also obtain data information from the thermal process equipment 71 through the boiler / turbine controller according to the IEC 61850 protocol to monitor the thermal process equipment 71.
[0034] For example, the distributed control system 3 communicates with the electrical redundancy controller 60 and the process redundancy controller 70 based on the DCS internal protocol. The distributed control host computer 30 can obtain data information from the protection and control device 40 and the electrical protection device 50 through the station control layer network, the electrical redundancy controller 60, and the protocol conversion device 80 to monitor the protection and control device 40 and the electrical protection device 50. The distributed control host computer 30 can also obtain data information from the electrical redundancy controller 60 and the process redundancy controller 70 through the station control layer network based on the DCS internal protocol to monitor the electrical redundancy controller 60 and the process redundancy controller 70.
[0035] For example, the plant power supply 61 may include a low-voltage plant power supply and a high-voltage plant power supply. The low-voltage and high-voltage plant power supplies may be connected to the electrical redundancy controller 60 via fieldbus and / or hardwiring based on the Profibus-DP (Decentralized Peripheral) protocol. The thermal process equipment 71 may include a high-voltage motor, a low-voltage motor, actuators, and field instruments. The high-voltage motor may be hardwired to the process redundancy controller 70, and the low-voltage motor, actuators, and field instruments may be hardwired and / or connected to the process redundancy controller 70.
[0036] For example, the network architecture of the booster station network monitoring system 1 can be a server / client structure. The booster station network monitoring host computer 10 may include a booster station network monitoring server host computer 11, a booster station network monitoring operator station host computer 12, and a booster station network monitoring engineer station host computer 13. The booster station network monitoring engineer station host computer 13 and the booster station network monitoring operator station host computer 12 can monitor the slave computers through the booster station network monitoring server host computer 11.
[0037] The electrical monitoring host computer 20 may include an electrical monitoring operator station host computer 21 and an electrical monitoring engineer station host computer 22. The distributed control host computer 30 may include a distributed control operator station host computer 31, a distributed control engineer station host computer 32, and a distributed control historical station host computer 33.
[0038] According to the above embodiments, the host computer of the integrated power plant control system of this application collects data from the slave computers through the station control layer network, and achieves data fusion of the slave computers through the station control layer network multiplexing, reducing data transmission links and thus improving data transmission efficiency. The mutual monitoring of various subsystems of the integrated power plant control system does not require separate network deployment, thereby reducing the engineering cost of constructing the power plant control system. Furthermore, the subsystems of the integrated power plant control system do not require independent maintenance personnel, thus reducing maintenance costs.
[0039] By way of example, this application also provides an electrical system including the control system described above.
[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application.
