[0001] Cross-reference to related applications

[0002] This disclosure claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202411891165.2, filed on December 20, 2024, entitled "Energy-Saving Optimization Method for Refrigeration Room System Based on Hybrid Model", the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0003] This disclosure belongs to the field of energy-saving technology for refrigeration room cooling, and more specifically, relates to an energy-saving optimization method for refrigeration room systems based on a hybrid model. Background Technology

[0004] In recent years, with the rapid development of new-generation information technology, chiller rooms, as important infrastructure, serve as carriers for various applications such as big data, artificial intelligence, AR / VR, industrial IoT, smart cities, smart energy, smart finance, and 5G, resulting in explosive growth in their scale. Because chiller room servers and auxiliary equipment operate with high energy density and 24 / 7 uninterrupted operation, their energy consumption intensity is tens or even hundreds of times higher than that of conventional public buildings. Therefore, energy conservation in chiller rooms is particularly important.

[0005] Cooling rooms typically employ a cold source combined with a precision air conditioning system to cool the servers. The cold source system provides cooling capacity, which is then exchanged with the precision air conditioning system to deliver cool air. This cool air then exchanges heat with the server equipment to remove heat. However, traditional cooling technologies are increasingly unable to meet the growing demands for cooling and energy conservation. Traditionally, the cooling system for cooling equipment in computer rooms is regulated based on return air temperature to determine the start and stop of equipment operation. However, relying solely on return air temperature to determine equipment operation is often inaccurate, leading to energy waste. Therefore, optimizing the energy efficiency of cooling room systems has become an urgent technical problem to be solved in the current cooling of computer rooms.

[0109] Therefore, the total energy consumption expression is: Q = Q c +Q a +Q u .

[0110] In the formula, Q c Q a Q u These represent the energy consumption of the chiller, cooling tower, and air compressor, respectively, with Q being the total energy consumption.

[0111] It should be noted that historical operating data refers to various data recorded by the chiller room system during its past operation, including physical quantities such as temperature, flow rate, specific enthalpy, and energy efficiency ratio involved in the thermodynamic model.

[0112] Step S12: Construct an energy-saving optimization tree. Each node in the energy-saving optimization tree is mapped to a physical quantity node, such as the outlet specific enthalpy of the refrigerant, chilled water flow rate, return air temperature, etc.

[0113] Specifically, all nodes on the energy-saving optimization tree are divided into three layers: the top-level node maps to total energy consumption, representing the overall energy-saving target of the chiller room; the middle nodes represent the optimization targets of each subsystem, mapped to the energy consumption of chillers, cooling towers, and air handling units; and the bottom-level nodes represent specific optimization strategies for each subsystem, such as adjusting the temperature of chilled water, optimizing the flow rate of cooling water, and adjusting the air temperature delivered by the air handling units.

[0114] Step S13: Construct a component relationship diagram, where each node in the component relationship diagram is mapped to a physical quantity node.

[0115] The mechanistic framework also includes indirect factors that affect energy consumption, such as fluid dynamics models and air enthalpy variation models.

[0116] The fluid dynamics model expression for the chiller unit is as follows:

[0117] In the formula, ΔP c f is the frictional pressure drop of the chilled water along the flow path. c L represents the coefficient of friction on the chilled water side. c D is the length of the chilled water pipe. c Where ρ is the diameter of the chilled water pipe, ρ is the density of water, and v is the density of water. c This refers to the flow rate of the chilled water.

[0118] The expression for the air enthalpy change model of the air unit model is: (h oi -h oo )=C0×(T oi -T oo )+r v ×(w oi -w oo ).

[0119] In the formula, h oi ,h oo These are the inlet specific enthalpy and outlet specific enthalpy of the chilled water coil, r. v w represents the latent heat of vaporization of water. oi ,w oo These are the inlet air humidity and outlet air humidity of the chilled water coil, respectively.

[0120] It should be noted that the nodes in the energy-saving optimization tree are a subset of the nodes in the component relationship diagram. The nodes in the energy-saving optimization tree only contain physical quantities that directly affect energy-saving optimization, that is, physical quantities involved in the thermodynamic model, while the component relationship diagram also includes physical quantities involved in indirect factors affecting energy consumption.

[0121] In this embodiment, the bottom-level nodes can also be limited based on expressions in the mechanistic framework. Taking the thermodynamic model of the air handling unit model as an example, the intermediate nodes are mapped to Q. u This refers to the energy consumption of the air handling unit. The underlying nodes can be constrained based on expressions, as shown in the dashed box in Figure 2. The weight of edge w1 is l0×C0, while the weight of edge w 12 The weight is U u ×A u The weight of edge w0 is 1.

[0122] It should be noted that the above models (e.g., thermodynamic models, fluid dynamic models, and air enthalpy change models) are all idealized models. In practical applications, the energy-saving optimization process of a chiller room system must comprehensively consider a series of practical factors, including the specifications and performance of hardware equipment, the degree of equipment aging, failure rate, and operating status. Furthermore, external environmental factors, such as the impact of temperature, humidity, and wind speed on system performance, must also be considered, as these variables may affect the model's predictive accuracy and optimization effectiveness.

[0123] Therefore, in order to more comprehensively evaluate and optimize the energy efficiency of the system, deep learning networks can be combined to analyze these real-world data, extract key features, and build more accurate prediction models. This can not only enhance the model's adaptability to complex real-world scenarios, but also achieve more efficient resource allocation and fault early warning, thereby maximizing the energy-saving optimization effect of the chiller room in actual operation.

[0124] In the component relationship diagram, the weights from node a to node b represent the association between them, which can be obtained through simulation based on the finite element model of the chiller room system. For example, in the finite element model, the physical quantities corresponding to the aforementioned nodes a and b are set, then the physical quantity corresponding to node a is adjusted, and it is observed whether the physical quantities corresponding to other nodes will change accordingly. For example, the rate of change of node b can be used as the weight from node a to node b.

[0125] Step 2: Determine the component relationship feature representation by randomly traversing the nodes in the component relationship diagram.

[0126] Specifically, this includes steps 2.1 to 2.2:

[0127] Step 2.1: For each node in the component relationship diagram at each time step, perform the following: take any node as the first node of the path, and continuously traverse the next node randomly until the total length of the nodes in the path is n. Then, take the path as the feature vector corresponding to the first node.

[0128] The probability of random traversal depends on the weights of the edges in the component relationship graph, and the probability p of random traversal from node a to node b. a,b The expression is:

[0129] In the formula, w a,b and w a,i , where are the weights of the edge from node a to node b and the edge from node a to node i, respectively, and n represents the total number of nodes in the energy-saving optimization tree.

[0130] It should be noted that each node r can be represented as This represents the historical running data of node r at time t2, where i = 1, 2, ..., m, and m is the number of times collected in the historical data.

[0131] Step 2.2: Input the feature vector into the convolutional neural network for training.

[0132] Specifically, a convolutional neural network includes: a convolutional layer, a feature extraction layer, and a pooling layer. The convolutional layer is configured to convolve the feature vectors, the feature extraction layer is configured to extract high-frequency feature data from the convolution result, and the pooling layer is configured to calculate the component relationship feature representation from the high-frequency feature data.

[0133] Step 3: Substitute the component relationship feature representation into the graph neural network to calculate the feature graph matrix.

[0134] In this context, a graph neural network can be considered as a K-layer convolutional model, where K is the number of graph convolutional layers. The larger the value of K, the better the training effect and the longer the iteration time.

[0135] The expression for calculating the feature map matrix is:

[0136] In the formula, V l T Let T be the transpose of the component relationship feature corresponding to the l-th physical quantity in the component relationship diagram, where T is the transpose sign, l = 1, 2, ..., L, and L is the number of all physical quantities in the component relationship diagram. Let A be the adjacency matrix composed of adjacency vectors, and D be the diagonal matrix corresponding to the adjacency matrix, with diagonal values ​​d. k Z represents the number of elements in row k of A whose value is greater than 0.5, where ε is the activation function, which can be either the sigmoid function or the ReLU function. k Let W be the feature map matrix of the k-th layer, where k = 0, 1, 2, ..., K. k W represents the weight matrix of the k-th layer, obtained through training a graph neural network. k The model parameters of a graph neural network can be continuously optimized using algorithms such as backpropagation.

[0137] The adjacency matrix is ​​calculated using the energy-saving optimization tree, and its expression is: A = [a1, a2, ..., a...]. i ,…,a n ], a i =[δ 1i ,δ 2i ,…,δ ki ,…,δ ni ],

[0138] In the formula, a i and δ kiLet b represent the adjacency vector corresponding to the i-th node in the component relationship graph and its elements, respectively. k d represents the distance from the k-th node to the vertex in the energy-saving optimization tree. ik This represents the distance between the k-th node and the i-th node in the component relationship graph of the energy-saving optimization tree, where max(b) represents the distance between the k-th node and the i-th node. k ×d ik ) indicates (b k ×d ik The maximum value in ), and k = 1, 2, ..., n.

[0139] Step 4: Based on the feature map matrix and combined with the current running data, output the energy-saving optimization strategy.

[0140] Specifically, the energy-saving optimization strategy refers to the operating data of the chiller room system after energy-saving optimization, including physical quantities such as temperature, flow rate, specific enthalpy, and energy efficiency ratio involved in the thermodynamic model, as well as specific optimization strategies for each subsystem in the bottom nodes, such as adjusting the temperature of chilled water, optimizing the flow rate of cooling water, and adjusting the air temperature delivered by the air handling unit.
