Specific embodiments of the present application are described hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings; however, it is to be understood that the disclosed embodiments are merely exemplary of the application, which can be embodied in various forms. Well-known and/or repeated functions and structures have not been described in detail so as to not unnecessarily obscure the present application with unnecessary or unnecessary detail. Therefore, specific structural and functional details disclosed herein are not to be interpreted as limiting, but merely as a basis for the claims and as a representative basis for teaching one skilled in the art to variously employ the present application in virtually any appropriately detailed structure.
The specification may use the phrases "in one embodiment," "in another embodiment," "in yet another embodiment," or "in other embodiments," which may each refer to one or more of the same or different embodiments in accordance with the application.
The embodiment of the invention provides a method for controlling the running temperature of an electrolytic cell, which can be applied to an electrolytic cell 1 with a data acquisition component, a control unit and a corresponding execution component, and specifically can automatically monitor the temperature of the electrolytic cell 1 through the data acquisition component (which can be a temperature acquisition device) and transmit the monitored data to the control unit, the control unit executes a cell temperature control logic and controls the action of the execution component based on the received monitored data, and the execution component can be a refrigerant flow controller 6, a refrigerant 7 generation device and the like, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, the method specifically comprises the following steps:
acquiring the actual temperature before the electrolytic cell 1 and the actual temperature after the electrolytic cell, which are acquired by a data acquisition component;
if the difference value between the actual temperature before the tank and the preset temperature before the tank is in a preset range, adjusting the flow and/or the temperature of the refrigerant 7 to control the liquid inlet temperature of the electrolyte 4; specifically, in the actual operation process, because the cooling water film regulating valve adopts PID control, when the actual temperature in front of the tank does not reach the set value, the film regulating valve actually starts to operate, for example, the set temperature is 90 ℃, the actual temperature is around 85 ℃, the opening degree of the film regulating valve has been gradually increased from 0, that is, PID regulation is advanced, and further the preset range can be set to-10 to 10 degrees, that is, when the absolute value of the difference between the actual temperature and the temperature in front of the preset tank is less than 10 degrees, the flow rate and/or the temperature of the refrigerant 7 is adjusted to control the liquid inlet temperature of the electrolyte 4.
In the current iteration period, determining the opening degree of a controller for adjusting the refrigerant 7 based on the actual temperature before the tank and the preset temperature before the tank; in this embodiment, when the temperature of the electrolyte needs to be lowered or raised, the cooling water flow is generally increased or decreased by using a method of adjusting the opening of the membrane regulating valve, and in addition, the temperature of the refrigerant can be adjusted, or the heat exchange area can be adjusted (for example, only one heat exchanger is started at the beginning, and one heat exchanger is started again when heat exchange needs to be increased), or the heat exchange coefficient can be adjusted (the flow of the electrolyte is increased), or other heat exchange methods can be started, such as air cooling, to adjust the temperature of the electrolyte.
And when the subsequent iteration period of the current iteration period starts, determining the set tank front temperature after the iteration based on the acquired actual tank rear temperature, the preset tank rear temperature, the correction coefficient and the set tank front temperature in the previous iteration period, and adjusting the opening of the controller of the refrigerant 7 based on the set tank front temperature after the iteration.
In the above embodiment, the difference between the actual temperature before the bath and the preset temperature before the bath is within the preset range may be that the absolute value of the difference between the actual temperature before the bath and the preset temperature before the bath is within a set temperature range, and the set temperature range may be selected from 0 to 10 degrees, or may be set from 0 to 100 degrees, which is not limited herein. For example, if the preset pre-bath temperature is set to 90 degrees and the control method is to perform the iterative process at the beginning, the actual pre-bath temperature can be set to normal temperature when the electrolytic bath starts to operate, for example, 25 degrees, at this time, the set temperature range can be known to be 0-65 degrees, but if the control method starts to perform the iterative process when the actual pre-bath temperature is normal temperature, the iterative process is calculated for a long time, and the iterative process has been calculated for many times during the process that the actual pre-bath temperature reaches the preset pre-bath temperature, and the obtained calculated value has a limited beneficial effect on the actual temperature control of the electrolytic bath; through a plurality of tests, it can be finally determined that better control effect can be obtained by controlling the operation temperature when the actual temperature before the tank is close to the preset temperature before the tank, and unnecessary iterative processing calculation in the early stage can be reduced, so that the difference value between the actual temperature before the tank and the preset temperature before the tank can be set in a preset range of-10 ℃ to 10 ℃, namely, the set temperature range is 0-10 ℃.
As can be seen from the above technical solutions, the control method provided in the above embodiments of the present invention specifically adopts a periodic iteration mode, and the specific control logic is as follows: the method comprises the steps of presetting the temperature before the electrolytic cell 1 and the temperature after the electrolytic cell 1 as a preset temperature before the electrolytic cell and a preset temperature after the electrolytic cell, which can be respectively marked as T front temperature and T rear temperature, further enabling a control unit to automatically monitor and collect the actual temperature before the electrolytic cell (Tfront) and the actual temperature after the electrolytic cell (Trear) through a data collection device, controlling the opening degree of a refrigerant flow controller 6 by comparing the actual temperature before the electrolytic cell and the preset temperature before the electrolytic cell in the current iteration period, and when the next iteration period S begins, multiplying the difference value between the actual temperature after the electrolytic cell (Trear) and the preset temperature after the electrolytic cell (Trear) by a correction coefficient alpha, iterating the preset temperature before the electrolytic cell according to subtraction logic to obtain the preset temperature before the electrolytic cell after the iteration (which can be marked as T front temperature'), namely,
before T,' -alpha.before T (after T and after T),
then, in the iteration cycle, the control unit controls the action of the execution component (controls the refrigerant flow controller 6) by comparing the actual temperature before the tank (Tfront) with the set temperature before the tank (Tfront') after the iteration, so as to adjust the flow or temperature of the refrigerant 7 and further adjust the liquid inlet temperature of the electrolyte 4, thereby realizing the stable control of the operation temperature of the electrolytic tank.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the correction coefficient is used to control the speed of adjusting the temperature of the electrolytic cell 1, and the correction coefficient is not less than 0, and can be set according to the actual speed of adjusting the temperature of the electrolytic cell 1.
Further, in this embodiment, the data acquisition device employs a temperature sensor, for example, the temperature sensor may employ a platinum resistor, and is respectively installed at an inlet and an outlet of the electrolyte 4 of the electrolytic cell 1, wherein the outlet includes a hydrogen outlet and an oxygen outlet, the data acquisition device is configured to send a temperature signal to the control unit, for example, the temperature signal may be a 4-20 ma signal, and of course, the temperature signal may also be sent as a voltage signal of 0-5V, or a photoelectric signal, a network transmission signal, and the like. In addition, in this embodiment, the mode that the temperature measuring device is installed outside the pipeline can be adopted to realize temperature measurement, and in addition, an infrared temperature measuring gun can be adopted to collect temperature signals.
Meanwhile, in this embodiment, the control unit at least includes a PLC, a safety grid, a relay, and an electrical converter, which are electrically connected, wherein the PLC may be replaced with a DCS or a single chip microcomputer to perform control.
In this embodiment, the heat exchange unit 3 of the electrolytic cell 1 is a heat exchanger, and the heat exchanger may be a tube type heat exchanger as an example, wherein the electrolyte 4 flows through a tube side of the tube type heat exchanger, and the refrigerant 7 flows through a shell side of the tube type heat exchanger. The refrigerant 7 adopts industrial cooling water, and the industrial cooling water flows through the tube type heat exchanger to cool the electrolyte 4. In this embodiment, the heat exchange unit 3 may also be a floating head heat exchanger, a plate heat exchanger, or the like, which is not specifically limited herein, and the refrigerant 7 may also be any one of chilled water, ethanol, and kerosene.
In addition, in this embodiment, the controller of the cooling medium 7 is configured to continuously adjust the flow rate of the cooling medium 7, so as to adjust the temperature of the electrolyte 4, and the controller may be a membrane regulating valve, for example.
The embodiment can improve the control precision and sensitivity of the operation temperature of the electrolytic cell, avoid the large fluctuation of the cell temperature and improve the operation safety and stability of the electrolytic cell 1. Furthermore, because the temperature of the electrolytic cell 1 is relatively stable, the operation temperature of the electrolytic cell 1 can be properly increased, and the energy consumption in the electrolytic process can be reduced.
For facilitating understanding of the above technical solution, as an example, the preset pre-bath temperature (tparf) set by the user is 75 ℃, the preset post-bath temperature (tparf) is 90 ℃, the iteration period S is 120S, and the correction coefficient α is 1, specifically:
when the electrolysis equipment is just started, the control unit acquires the actual pre-tank temperature (before T) through the data acquisition part at the pre-tank temperature monitoring point 55, acquires the actual post-tank temperature (after T) at the post-tank temperature monitoring point 22, and at the moment, the flow controller 6 of the refrigerant does not act when the temperature before T is less than that before T.
Along with the extension of the operation time, the temperature before the actual bath (before T) and the temperature after the actual bath (after T) are gradually increased, when | before T-before T is set to | be less than or equal to 10 ℃, the control unit controls the refrigerant flow controller 6 to act to start cooling the circulating electrolyte 4, and simultaneously, a timer in the control logic of the control unit starts timing.
When S < 120S, the preset T is set to be 75 ℃, the control unit controls the opening degree of the refrigerant flow controller 6 by comparing the preset T with the preset T, and further adjusts the preset T to gradually converge towards the preset T.
When the iteration period S is 120 seconds, at this time, S is 120 seconds, which is an example value, in the actual operation process, the electrolyte may flow from the electrolytic cell 1 to the electrolytic cell 1 for 2 minutes to 20 minutes, if 10 minutes, but the iteration period is 120 seconds (2 minutes), then 5 iterations are performed in the pre-cell temperature accumulation before the post-cell temperature of the electrolytic cell 1 reacts, for example, 5 times of 5 ℃ in the case, and the pre-cell temperature set value may reach 100 degrees, which is unreasonable, so the iteration period is very important, and then the upper and lower limits of the pre-cell temperature set value are set in the actual application process.
In some embodiments of the invention, the time of the iteration cycle is not less than the time of the electrolyte 4 flowing from the front of the cell to the back of the cell 1.
Before T, execution iteration is set, and the iteration algorithm is as follows:
before T,' -before T, - (after T-after) x 1,
that is, the set pre-tank temperature after iteration is tparf', and the operating logic of the control method is described here assuming three cases:
1. after T is less than T, if after T is 85 ℃, then before T is 75- (85-90) × 1 is 80 ℃, at this time, the set temperature before the cell after iteration is increased, and the control unit controls the opening degree of the refrigerant flow controller 6 to be reduced, so that the liquid inlet temperature of the electrolyte 4, namely the actual temperature before the cell (before T), is increased, and thus the temperature of the electrolyte 4 at the outlet of the electrolytic cell 1, namely the actual temperature after the cell (after T), is increased, and is set to be close to the rear T;
2. after T is set to T, then before T is set to 75- (90-90) × 1 is set to 75 ℃, at this time, the set pre-tank temperature after iteration is unchanged, the control unit controls the opening of the refrigerant flow controller 6 to be unchanged, the actual pre-tank temperature (before T) and the actual post-tank temperature (after T) are unchanged, and the system temperature stably operates;
3. after T > after T, if after T is 95 ℃, then before T is 75- (95-90) × 1 is 70 ℃, at this time, the set pre-tank temperature after iteration is decreased, and the control unit controls the opening degree of the refrigerant flow controller 6 to be increased, so that the feed temperature of the electrolyte 4, that is, the actual pre-tank temperature (before T), is decreased, and the temperature of the electrolyte 4 at the outlet of the electrolytic tank 1, that is, the actual post-tank temperature (after T), is decreased, and is set closer to the rear T.
After the next iteration period is reached, the iteration is continued before T, and the control unit controls the operation state of the electrolytic cell 1 according to the change of the opening degree of the refrigerant flow controller 6 controlled by the operation logic. After a plurality of iteration cycles, the actual post-bath temperature (post-T) of the electrolytic bath 1 tends to the pre-set post-bath temperature (post-T), so that the stable control of the operation temperature of the electrolytic bath is realized.
The embodiment of the invention also provides a control unit for the operation temperature of the electrolytic cell, which comprises:
data acquisition means for acquiring an actual pre-cell temperature and an actual post-cell temperature of the electrolytic cell 1;
the control unit is used for sending a control signal to a controller of the refrigerant 7 when the difference value between the actual temperature before the tank and the preset temperature before the tank is within a preset range so as to adjust the flow and/or the temperature of the refrigerant 7 to control the liquid inlet temperature of the electrolyte 4, and determining the opening of the controller for adjusting the refrigerant 7 based on the actual temperature before the tank and the preset temperature before the tank in the current iteration cycle; and when the subsequent iteration period of the current iteration period starts, determining the set tank front temperature after iteration based on the acquired actual tank rear temperature, the preset tank rear temperature, the correction coefficient and the set tank front temperature in the previous iteration period, and sending an opening degree adjusting instruction to the controller of the refrigerant 7 based on the set tank front temperature after iteration.
In some embodiments of the invention, the time of the iteration cycle is not less than the time of the electrolyte 4 flowing from the front of the cell to the back of the cell 1.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the data acquisition device employs temperature sensors, which may employ platinum resistors, and are respectively installed at the inlet and the outlet of the electrolyte 4 of the electrolytic cell 1, and the data acquisition device is configured to send a temperature signal to the control unit, which may be a 4-20 ma signal, for example.
