That is, during the initial operation stage of the cooling system, the inverter pump is preferentially started, wherein the predetermined flow rate may be the maximum flow rate that the inverter pump can provide.

Specifically, in the initial state of the cooling system, the opening degree of the static balance valve 11 is adjusted to enable the flow rate passing through each cooling branch to reach the design value, the static hydraulic imbalance phenomenon caused by the deviation of the resistance of each cooling branch from the design value is eliminated, and the opening degree of the static balance valve 11 is fixed to enable the cooling system to reach the static balance.
Further, on each cooling branch (specifically, between the inlet of each cooling branch and the heat generating component), a regulating valve 12 and a differential pressure controller 13 may be provided. The regulating valve 12 can regulate the flow rate required by the corresponding cooling branch in real time, and the pressure difference controller 13 is used for keeping the pressure difference between two ends of the regulating valve 12 constant.

The differential pressure controller 13 can adjust its opening degree according to the differential pressure across the regulating valve 12, thereby keeping the differential pressure across the regulating valve 12 constant.
Wherein the static balance valve 11 and the pressure difference controller 13 can be respectively arranged on two sides of the regulating valve 12, so that the static balance valve 11 can provide a pressure taking point for the pressure difference controller 13 to enable the pressure difference controller 13 to obtain the pressure on two sides of the regulating valve 12. However, when the pressure difference controller 13 is used to realize the pressure difference regulation across the regulating valve 12, an additional pressure measuring interface (not shown) may also be used instead of the static balancing valve 11, and when a pressure measuring interface is used, the pressure measuring interface and the pressure difference controller 13 are also respectively provided on both sides of the regulating valve 12.

Where air cooling is employed, the first temperature sensor 19 senses the temperature of the air (i.e., the return air temperature) while the hot side heat exchanger cools the air. When water cooling is employed, the hot-side heat exchanger directly cools a cooling medium (such as, but not limited to, water) flowing through the heat-generating component, and the first temperature sensor 19 detects the temperature of the cooling medium in the hot-side heat exchanger (i.e., the return water temperature). When different cooling modes are adopted, different first set temperatures T can be set01
After the variable frequency pump 1 and the regulating valve 12 on the corresponding cooling branch are opened for cooling, if the return air temperature or the return water temperature is still greater than the first set temperature T of the hot-end heat exchange device01The flow is increased by adjusting the regulating valve 12 on the respective cooling branch. When the increased total flow of the cooling medium is larger than the preset flow (namely when only the variable frequency pump 1 cannot meet the flow demand), the control unit controls and starts the constant speed pump 2 to enable the constant speed pump 2 and the variable frequency pump 1 to operate together; when the total flow rate of the increased cooling medium is still less than or equal toWhen the flow is fixed (namely, only the variable frequency pump 1 is used to meet the flow requirement), the control unit controls the variable frequency motor to increase the flow of the cooling medium output by the variable frequency pump 1 so as to meet the flow requirement of each cooling branch.
In the cooling system according to the utility model discloses a wind generating set's of embodiment, the part that generates heat can include the generator, converter and the cabin in the part that generates heat etc. correspondingly, two or more cooling branches can include the generator cooling branch road, the converter cooling branch road and the cabin cooling branch road of cooling the generator, converter and the cabin in the part that generates heat respectively. Similarly, the hot end heat exchanger device can comprise a generator hot end heat exchanger 14, a converter hot end heat exchanger 16 and a cabin hot end heat exchanger 17, wherein a low-temperature cooling medium enters the hot end heat exchanger, absorbs the heat of a heating component and then becomes a high-temperature cooling medium which flows out of the hot end heat exchanger.
Because the number of heating structures in the generator is large, a plurality of generator cooling branches which are connected in parallel are arranged on the generator cooling branches, and each branch is provided with a generator hot-end heat exchanger 14. Furthermore, a regulating valve 12 is provided on each of the plurality of generator cooling branches. In this way, the static balance valve 11 and the pressure difference controller 13 on the generator cooling branch may be disposed on the inlet side and the outlet side of the generator cooling branch, respectively.
Furthermore, according to the utility model discloses a wind generating set's cooling system is still including setting up the check valve 3 at the outlet side of inverter pump 1 and constant speed pump 2 respectively to prevent the coolant refluence that inverter pump 1 and constant speed pump 2 carried.

Wherein the filter 7 can filter out foreign particles in the cooling system, preventing damage to the cooling pump and clogging of the heat exchanger. The drain valve 8 is used for discharging the cooling medium in the system pipeline and the equipment. The shut-off valve 9 can shut off the flow of cooling medium in the line and close it when the system requires maintenance. In addition, a shut-off valve 9 can be arranged on both sides of the variable-frequency pump 1 and the constant-speed pump 2.

According to the utility model discloses an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1 for carry out refrigerated cold junction heat transfer device to the coolant medium who has carried out the heat exchange can be including two at least cold junction heat exchangers 18 of parallelly connected setting each other, and cold junction heat exchanger 18 can carry out the heat exchange with external atmosphere, makes the high temperature liquid temperature who flows out from hot junction heat exchanger 14, 16 and 17 reduce, and then cyclic utilization. The cold end heat exchanger 18 may be a variable frequency fan capable of adjusting frequency, or the air volume of the cold end heat exchanger 18 may be adjusted by a multi-speed motor.
Furthermore, the cooling system may further comprise a second temperature sensor 10 arranged at the inlet or outlet of the cooling pump. The second temperature sensor 10 may measure the temperature of the liquid supply of the cooling pump and feed back to the control unit. The cold side heat exchanger 18 may adjust the frequency of the fan motor via a frequency converter or may control the amount of air by varying the speed of the multi-speed motor based on the temperature of the feed liquid measured by the second temperature sensor 10. Specifically, the second set temperature T may be set as needed02When the liquid supply temperature is greater than or equal to a second set temperature T02In the meantime, the control unit controls and increases the air volume of the cold-end heat exchanger 18 to reduce the liquid supply temperature, thereby ensuring the cooling effect of the cooling system.
According to the utility model discloses an embodiment, first settlement temperature T01Greater than a second set temperature T02To ensure that the cooling medium can cool the heat generating component, the second set temperature is set in a manner similar to the first set temperatureAnd is not limited herein.
In addition, when the flow rate of the cooling medium changes as described above, the pressure difference between the supply pressure and the return pressure flowing through the cooling pump changes, and the frequency of the variable frequency pump 1 can be changed in real time according to the supply pressure difference, wherein the supply pressure refers to the pressure at the outlet of the cooling pump, and the return pressure refers to the pressure at the inlet of the cooling pump.
In addition, as shown in the drawings, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the variable frequency pump 1, the constant speed pump 2, the frequency modulator, the check valve 3, the pressure gauge 4, the pressure sensor 5, the constant pressure device 6, the filter 7, the liquid discharge valve 8, the shut-off valve 9, the second temperature sensor 10, the static balance valve 11, the regulating valve 12, the differential pressure controller 13 on the converter cooling branch and the engine compartment cooling branch, and the differential pressure controller 13 on the generator cooling branch can be integrated on the pump set, so that the pipeline layout of the cooling system is simplified, and the maintenance and the overhaul are facilitated. However, the components integrated on the pump group are not limited to the above-mentioned components, and one or more of the above-mentioned components may be separately provided or more components may be integrated on the pump group according to actual needs.
The operation of the entire system will be described in detail below.
In the initial state of the cooling system, the opening degree of the static balance valve 11 is adjusted to make the flow rate passing through each cooling branch reach the design value, and the opening degree of the static balance valve 11 is fixed to make the cooling system reach the static balance.
After the wind generating set starts to operate, the heat loads of the generator, the converter and the engine room are gradually increased, the return water temperature or the return water temperature sensed by the first temperature sensor 19 is gradually increased, and when the control unit receives that the return water temperature or the return water temperature fed back by the first temperature sensor 19 on a certain cooling branch is higher than a first set temperature T01When the cooling system runs, the variable frequency pump 1 and the regulating valve 12 on the cooling branch are controlled to be opened, the cooling medium circularly flows in the pipeline, and the cooling system starts to run.
Meanwhile, the hot end heat exchange device and the cold end heat exchange device start to operate, and the cooling medium passes through the hot end heat exchanger on the cooling branch to take away heat generated by the heating component. Meanwhile, the cooling medium is changed into high-temperature liquid and then flows through the cold-end heat exchange device (the cold-end heat exchanger 18) to radiate heat to the outside, the cooling medium is changed into low-temperature liquid again and flows back to the cooling pump to continue circulation, so that the heat of the heating component is continuously taken away, and the normal operation of the system is ensured.
In the process, the control unit continuously monitors the return air temperature or the return water temperature, and if the return air temperature or the return water temperature is still greater than the first set temperature T01The opening of the regulating valve 12 continues to increase, increasing the flow through the hot side heat exchanger. When the variable frequency pump 1 can not meet the flow demand, the constant speed pump 2 is started, and meanwhile, the rotating speed of the variable frequency pump is reduced. If the required flow rate continues to increase, the rotation speed of the variable frequency pump 1 continues to increase again until the flow rate provided by the cooling system is kept at the required total flow rate.
In addition, as the heat productivity of the heating component is increased, the air volume of the cold-end heat exchanger is gradually increased along with the rising of the outlet water temperature of the cold-end heat exchanger, so that the temperature of the cooling medium is reduced.
When the flow of the cooling system changes, the pressure difference between the liquid supply pressure and the liquid return pressure before and after the cooling pump also changes, and the control unit can adjust the frequency of the variable frequency pump according to the pressure difference. When the flow demand of the cooling system is reduced, the control unit can reduce the rotating speed of the variable frequency pump 1 by adjusting the frequency of the frequency converter to reduce the frequency, and adjust the flow supply, so that the requirement that the heat dissipation of a demand end is reduced is met, and meanwhile, the running energy consumption of the water pump is reduced due to the reduction of the flow.
Furthermore, the pressure of the cooling system is affected when the flow rate of each cooling branch is adjusted. The wind generating set has a plurality of heating components, namely a plurality of cooling branches. In general, the mutual interference of the adjustment of the flow rate makes it difficult to balance the system, and the cooling branches cannot achieve the required flow rate through the adjustment. And according to the utility model discloses an embodiment, the pressure drop that sets up the pressure differential controller 13 on each cooling branch road can utilize its self case changes and compensate the change of pipeline resistance to can keep its two pressure differences of getting between the pressure port (being located static balance valve 11 and pressure differential controller 13 respectively) unchangeable when the operating mode changes, namely, keep the pressure difference at governing valve 12 both ends unchangeable, like this, the flow through governing valve 12 only receives return air temperature or return water temperature's influence, and does not receive the influence of the cooling system pressure fluctuation that other cooling branch road's flow control arouses. In this way, the actual flow characteristics of the regulating valve 12 can be kept consistent with the ideal flow characteristics, and the regulating capacity of the regulating valve is greatly improved, so that the regulating valve can be regulated according to the change of the actual heat load of the parallel cooling branches to achieve the corresponding required flow.
In addition, during the period, the cold end heat exchange device adjusts the air volume in real time according to the temperature detected by the second temperature sensor, when the detected liquid supply temperature is greater than or equal to a second set temperature, the control unit controls to increase the air volume of the cold end heat exchanger, and when the detected liquid supply temperature is less than the second set temperature, the control unit controls to decrease the air volume of the cold end heat exchanger or keeps the air volume unchanged.
Further, although the cooling system according to the embodiment of the present invention is shown to include three cooling branches, it is not limited thereto, and the number of cooling branches may be increased or decreased according to actual needs, for example, a transformer cooling branch and a bearing cooling branch may be increased according to needs, and the like.
As described above, the differential pressure controller 13 and the regulator valve 12 are provided separately, however, they may be replaced by a valve body in which two functions are integrated, for example, the integrated valve body may be composed of a hydraulic automatic adjusting portion and an electric adjustable portion, but not limited thereto.
According to the utility model discloses an embodiment provides kinetic energy for the coolant circulation through adopting inverter pump and the parallelly connected mode of constant speed pump, and the cost of cooling pump is compared with whole inverter pump that use and has certain advantage, simultaneously make full use of inverter pump's variable flow function for but cooling system maximum limit ground adjusts coolant's flow, the energy consumption of at utmost reduction cooling pump.
In addition, the cooling air quantity of the cold-end radiator can be adjusted within the maximum range by adopting a variable frequency fan or other speed regulation fans, and the energy consumption of the cooling fan is reduced.
In addition, the flow of each parallel cooling branch is controlled and adjusted by adopting the adjusting valve and the differential pressure controller, the temperature of the liquid supply of each cooling branch can be accurately controlled according to the load change of each cooling branch of the wind generating set, so that the reliability of heating components such as a generator, a converter, a cabin and the like is improved, and the service life is prolonged.
According to the utility model discloses an embodiment, through the flow control valve member integration with each cooling branch road on the pump package, constitute an integrated unit that collects cooling pump, control valve, balanced valve as an organic whole, make cooling system pipeline layout simplify, and the maintenance of being convenient for overhauls.
In addition, according to the utility model discloses a cooling system fundamentally has overcome the water conservancy imbalance phenomenon, does not need the same form system of special design, practices thrift pipeline layout space, reduces the pipeline investment. Each cooling branch can be independently adjusted and not interfered with each other, so that the debugging process is greatly simplified.
