Background
Surging is an inherent property of a centrifugal compressor, is closely related to the rotating speed and the flow of the compressor, when the high-low pressure difference of a system exceeds the limit lift of the compressor at the current rotating speed, airflow at an outlet of an impeller cannot be smoothly discharged, high-pressure gas in a condenser flows back to the compressor until the pressure in the condenser is reduced to be lower than the pressure at the outlet of the compressor, at the moment, the backflow is stopped, the airflow flows forward under the action of the impeller, and the periodic oscillation phenomena of the airflow, the current, the pressure and the like occur in the whole system in cycles, and the surging is called. Meanwhile, when the air suction flow of the impeller is too small and deviates from the designed working condition, the air flow direction deviates from the geometric angle of the impeller, and when the flow is reduced to a certain critical value, the separation and diffusion loss are increased sharply, the lift of the compressor is greatly reduced, and the surge phenomenon also occurs.
In order to prevent the compressor from surging, a common method for the frequency converter set at present is to arrange a surge preventing line. A surge line of the compressor is formed by using a pressure ratio (condensing pressure/evaporating pressure) as an abscissa and a surge frequency corresponding to each pressure ratio as an ordinate, and a partial frequency is added to the surge line as a safety margin, thereby forming a surge prevention line of the unit. In the unit operation process, the condensing pressure and the evaporating pressure of the unit are obtained through the pressure sensor, the current compressor operation pressure ratio is calculated, the pressure ratio is substituted into the anti-surge line formula, the minimum frequency of the unit operating under the pressure ratio is calculated, and the actual operation frequency of the unit cannot be smaller than the minimum frequency calculated by the anti-surge line, so that the unit is prevented from surging.
In practice, the load demand on the units varies, and therefore it is often desirable to have a wide operating range for the units. Along with the change of the load and the working condition of the unit, the running pressure ratio of the compressor also changes, and the current anti-surge control method has the following problems: 1. because the surge-proof line is fitted through a single formula, the surge-proof line and the surge line cannot be completely matched, and the precision is poor, so that the running range of the unit is narrowed; 2. the operation range of the unit is narrowed, when the unit needs small load operation, the operation can be realized only by closing guide vanes, opening a bypass and even starting and stopping the unit, and the energy efficiency of the unit is greatly reduced; 3. the suction volume of the compressor is reduced by closing the guide vane, the load of the unit is reduced, the change range of the opening of the guide vane is 0% -100%, the opening of the guide vane and the suction flow are not in a linear change relation, the suction flow is too small, the compressor is easy to surge, and the reliability of the unit cannot be guaranteed.
