Abstract:

The integration of heat pump can realize heat-power decoupling, and would influence the energy consumption characteristics of combined heat and power cogeneration plants (CHP). Therefore, a 350MW CHP unit was taken as a reference case, and the off-design calculation models of CHP unit and the heating calculation models of heat pump were established. The minimum power load rate and the coal consumption rate of the CHP plants with steam extraction and heat pump to supply heat were compared. The influences of the heat pump performance coefficient, the power load rate and the heat load rate on energy consumption characteristics of CHP plants were also studied. Results show that the compression heat pump can save energy on benchmark condition and its power load regulation range is also greater. The coal saving rate increases with the increase of αCOP1 and heat load rate, and decreases as power load rate increases. When the αCOP1 is 6.119, the heat load rate is 2.5, and the electric load rate is 0.8, the coal saving rate is 2.60%.
