摘要: 【目的】先进绝热压缩空气储能(advanced adiabatic compressed air energy storage,AA-CAES)作为大规模储能中的重要支撑技术,是提高电网新能源消纳能力的有效手段。然而,压缩机在启动过程易出现喘振和阻塞等不良动态,给压缩系统的启动阶段带来安全隐患。为此,以AA-CAES系统压缩机高效启动为目标,针对工程实际中防喘阀灵活调节受限的问题,提出了考虑可变流量控制的压缩机启动策略。【方法】建立了压缩机变工况动态模型并对防喘阀进行建模,利用最小二乘法对喘振阻塞进行刻画。基于防喘阀的调节潜力,提出了一种考虑流量调节灵活性的压缩机启动策略,并通过仿真验证了该启动策略的有效性。【结果】相比于防喘阀全开的常规防喘振操作,将喘振裕度调整为75%,可以在减少冗余安全裕度的前提下使压缩机效率提升1%以上。【结论】所提策略能够使压缩机具备一定的安全运行裕度且提升其效率,实现了压缩机的安全高效启动。

Abstract: [Objectives] As an important supporting technology for large-scale energy storage, advanced adiabatic compressed air energy storage (AA-CAES) is an effective means to improve the grid’s capacity for renewable energy consumption. However, compressors are prone to adverse dynamics such as surge and choke during startup, posing safety hazards to the compression system. Therefore, aiming for the high-efficiency startup of AA-CAES system compressors and addressing the limited flexibility of anti-surge valves in practical engineering, a compressor startup strategy considering variable flow control is proposed. [Methods] A dynamic model of the compressor under variable operating conditions is established, and the anti-surge valve is modeled. The phenomena of surge and choke are characterized using the least squares method. Based on the adjustment potential of the anti-surge valve, a startup strategy considering flow regulation flexibility is proposed, and its effectiveness is validated through simulation. [Results] Compared to the conventional anti-surge operation with the anti-surge valve fully open, adjusting the surge margin to 75% can improve compressor efficiency by over 1% while reducing redundant safety margins. [Conclusions] The proposed strategy enables the compressor to maintain certain safety margins while achieving efficiency improvement, realizing safe and efficient compressor startup.
