Provided in the present invention are a
flue-gas-heat-storage-based
frequency regulation method and apparatus for a thermal
power unit including a low-temperature
economizer. The method comprises: in response to a power-grid
frequency deviation exceeding a dead zone, starting up a steam-
turbine governor system, and on the basis of the steam-
turbine governor system and the power-grid
frequency deviation, calculating an expected power increment of a thermal
power unit, an expected frequency variation of a condensate-water throttling
condensate pump, and an expected fan frequency variation of a variable-frequency
fan in a flu gas duct; on the basis of the expected frequency variation of the condensate-water throttling
condensate pump and the expected fan frequency variation, controlling one or a combination of a flow-regulating valve in a condensate and extraction direction, a flow-regulating valve in a condensate and
flue gas direction, and the fan frequency of the variable-frequency
fan in the
flue gas duct, so as to obtain a
power control result; and when the
power control result satisfies the requirement of the expected power increment of the thermal
power unit, obtaining a
frequency regulation result after the completion of
frequency regulation. The present invention solves the problems in the prior art of the frequency regulation capability and utilization of flue-gas
waste heat being insufficient.
