Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for starting up a once-through steam generator with a combustion chamber having a number of burners for a fossil fuel, the gas-tight surrounding wall of which is formed from at least approximately vertically arranged evaporator tubes which pass through from the bottom upwards become. It further relates to an apparatus for performing the method.
- a circulating stream is usually superimposed on the continuous flow of the evaporator of the continuous steam generator - and often also a flue gas-heated preheater or economizer arranged in the continuous steam generator - during start-up in order to cool it reliably by correspondingly high speeds in the pipes.
- the minimum flow consisting of continuous flow and superimposed circulation flow in the case of vertically arranged pipes in the peripheral walls of the combustion chamber is between 25% and 50% of the full load flow. This means that during the start-up process the steam generator load must first be increased to at least 25% to 50% before the efficient continuous operation with its high steam outlet temperatures is achieved.
- the amount of the flow medium to be delivered by a feed pump is therefore preferably kept constant for starting and in a load range below a certain limit load of 50% of the full load.
- the feed flow of the feed pump is equal to the evaporator throughput.
- the circulation circuit to be installed for the start-up process which usually comprises at least one circulation pump with appropriate accessories or a waste heat exchanger, is associated with a high level of technical complexity and therefore high investment costs required. These investment costs increase sharply with the realization of high and very high vapor pressures.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of specifying a method and a device for operating a once-through steam generator with low start-up losses. This is to be achieved with little technical effort in a device suitable for carrying out the method.
- this object is achieved according to the invention in that the evaporator throughput is set as a function of the quantity of fuel supplied to the or each burner per unit of time, the evaporator throughput rate proportional to the heat output in the combustion chamber.
- the evaporator throughput i.e. the amount of the medium supplied to the evaporator and flowing through it is set within a narrow tolerance band in the procedure according to the invention.
- the invention is based on the knowledge that a once-through steam generator can also be started up with a rapidly increasing firing rate, since its relatively thin-walled components allow high temperature change speeds. Due to the small storage mass of the evaporator, rapid steam formation occurs, as a result of which superheater heating surfaces provided for the superheating are well cooled.
- the invention is based on the consideration that even with very low mass flow densities and at the same time high heat flow densities, there is very good heat transfer from a pipe wall to the flow medium if a so-called ring flow is formed.
- Recent studies on the internal heat transfer in vertical pipes have surprisingly confirmed the formation of such a ring flow, even at very low mass flow densities, in which a large proportion of water in the flow medium formed by a water-water / steam mixture on the pipe wall is always present is transported. This also leads to the above-mentioned good heat transfer at a minimum current which is below about 25% of the full load flow, ie the evaporator throughput at 100% load.
- the described thermal engineering phenomenon is implemented particularly favorably in the method for operating a once-through steam generator during start-up if, based on a minimum throughput of the evaporator of less than 15%, preferably less than 10%, e.g. 5% of the full-load throughput, the evaporator throughput deviates only in a narrow range from the percentage of the combustion heat output related to full-load.
- the evaporator throughput is expediently limited to 5% to 10% of the full-load throughput. This ensures a uniform upward flow in all evaporator tubes right from the start.
- the evaporator throughput is set in such a way that the percentage evaporator throughput based on the full load throughput is within a certain range equal to the percent of the combustion heat output based on full load.
- the range is preferably between 3 to 8% above and between 2 to 3% below the percentage of the combustion heat output which increases over time. This condition of an asymmetrical bandwidth applies in particular to a combustion heat output in which a stable combustion is ensured.
- the gas-tight surrounding wall of which is formed from at least approximately vertically arranged evaporator tubes through which the medium can flow from bottom to top solved by a controller module for setting the Amount of medium supplied to the evaporator per unit of time as a function of the quantity of fuel supplied to the or each burner per unit of time.
- the controlled variable is expediently the evaporator throughput, i.e. the amount of feed water supplied to the evaporator on the medium side per time unit.
- the controller module is therefore connected in an advantageous embodiment to an actuator connected to a feed water line leading into the evaporator and to a first flow sensor connected to the feed water line and to a second flow sensor connected to a or each burner fuel line.
- the advantages achieved by the invention are, in particular, that the start-up losses decrease during a start-up process of a continuous steam generator due to an evenly increasing evaporator throughput with the thermal output of the furnace, since even with low load, an efficient continuous operation is achieved.
- the circulation pumps or waste heat exchangers can advantageously be omitted, so that the investment costs are reduced and the system availability is increased.
- FIG. 1 schematically shows a once-through steam generator with a vertical throttle cable and a start-up control device
- Figure 2 is a start-up diagram for an evaporator throughput and a heat output.
- the vertical throttle cable of the steam generator 1 according to FIG. 1 with a rectangular cross section is formed by a surrounding wall 2 which merges into a trihedral bottom 3 at the lower end of the gas cable.
- Evaporator tube 4 of the surrounding wall 2 are connected gas-tightly on their long sides, e.g. welded.
- the bottom 3 comprises a discharge opening 3a for ashes, not shown.
- the lower region of the peripheral wall 2 forms the combustion chamber 6 of the continuous steam generator 1, which is provided with a number of burners 5.
- the medium side, i.e. Evaporator tubes 4 of the surrounding wall 2 through which feed water or a water / water / steam mixture flows in parallel, from bottom to top, or one behind the other in the case of evaporator tube groups, are at their inlet ends to an inlet header 8 and at their outlet ends an outlet header 10 connected.
- the inlet header 8 and the outlet header 10 are located outside the throttle cable and are e.g. each formed by an annular tube.
- the inlet header 8 is connected via a line 12 and a header 14 to the outlet of a high-pressure preheater or economizer 15.
- the heating surface of the economizer 15 is arranged in a space of the surrounding wall 2 above the combustion chamber 6.
- the economizer 15 is connected on the input side via a collector 16 to a feed water tank 18, which is connected in a manner not shown to a steam turbine via a condenser and is therefore connected to its water-steam cycle.
- the outlet header 10 is connected via a water-steam separation vessel 20 and a line 22 to a high-pressure superheater 24, which is arranged within the peripheral wall 2 between the economizer 15 and the combustion chamber 5.
- the high-pressure superheater 24 is connected on the output side to a high-pressure part of the steam turbine via a collector 26 during operation. Between the high-pressure superheater 24 and the economizer 15, an intermediate superheater 28 is provided within the peripheral wall 2 and is connected via collectors 30, 32 between the high-pressure part and a medium-pressure part of the steam turbine.
- a motor-operated feed water pump 34 and a heat exchanger 36 heated by steam D for feed water preheating, as well as a valve 38 and a flow sensor 40 are connected.
- the flow sensor 40 is used to determine the amount of feed water S carried out per unit of time via the feed water line 17.
- the amount of feed water S conducted per unit of time via the line 17 corresponds to the feed water quantity supplied from the evaporator tubes 4 and thus the evaporator throughput.
- Another flow sensor 42 is connected to a fuel line 44, which opens into the burner 5 via sub-lines 46.
- a valve 48 for adjusting the amount of fuel B supplied to the or each burner 5 per unit time is connected into the fuel line 44.
- the flow sensors 40 and 42 are connected to a controller module 54 via signal lines 50 and 52 into which converters 51 and 53 are connected.
- the controller module 54 is connected to the valve 38 via a line 56.
- the regulator module 54 can alternatively also be connected to the motor-operated feed water pump 34 via a line 56 'shown in broken lines.
- the controller block 54 and the Flow sensors 40, 42 and the valve 38 used to adjust the amount of feed water S are part of a control device 58 for starting the continuous steam generator 1.
- the feed water pump 34 itself can also be changed by changing its speed to adjust the amount of the over Feed water line 17 guided feed water S can be used.
- the control device 58 is used to adjust the evaporator throughput as a function of the amount of fuel supplied to the or each burner 5 per unit of time during a start-up process.
- the controller module 54 is supplied with the current value of the quantity of the evaporator, i.e. the evaporator, via the signal line 50, measured by means of the flow sensor 40. the evaporator tubes 4, supplied per unit time of the feed water S.
- This value supplied to the controller module 54 by the flow sensor 42 corresponds to the current evaporator throughput VD (FIG. 2).
- the current value of the combustion heat output FW (FIG. 2) in the combustion chamber 6 is fed to the controller module 54 via the signal line 52.
- the amount of the fuel B supplied to the burners 5 via the fuel line 44 at the current time is determined by means of the flow sensor 42.
- This fuel throughput is converted by means of the converter 53 into the corresponding combustion heat output FW.
- a control variable SG is determined in the control module 54 from a comparison of the current combustion heat output FW and the current evaporator throughput VD, which controls the valve 38 or the speed of the feed water pump 34 via line 56 or 56 '.
- the amount of the feed water S fed via the feed water line 17 and thus the evaporator throughput VD is set proportionally to the combustion heat output FW in the combustion chamber 6, the evaporator throughput VD serving as a control variable.
- the time-dependent course of the evaporator throughput VD and the combustion heat output FW is shown in FIG. 2. While the abscissa represents the time axis, percentages are plotted on the ordinate that relate to the maximum evaporator throughput (evaporator throughput at 100% load) and the maximum combustion heat output (combustion heat output at 100% load).
- a minimum throughput of less than 15% of the throughput at 100% load is preferably already set.
- this minimum throughput is within a bandwidth BD of 5% to 10% of the throughput at 100% load, i.e. the maximum Verdampfer ⁇ throughput VD.
- This minimum throughput of 5% to 10% of the maximum evaporator throughput VD is set at the start of the start-up process.
- the first burner 5 is ignited at a point in time, the firing heat output FW initially rising suddenly.
- the combustion heat output FW initially increases in steps. From a furnace heat output FW of approximately 6% of the maximum furnace heat output, the furnace heat output FW increases continuously over time t. With the continuous increase in the combustion heat output FW, the evaporator throughput VD is also continuously increased.
- the evaporator throughput VD is preferably set such that the percentage evaporator throughput VD related to the throughput at full load within the bandwidth BD of 5% to 10% of the throughput at full load is equal to the percentage firing heat output FW related to full load, ie 100% load .
- the bandwidth BD within which the evaporator throughput VD increases with the combustion heat output FW over time, is limited by an upper limit line OG and a lower limit line UG.
- the evaporator throughput VD is preferably set to increase in time with the combustion heat output FW during the start-up process.
- the bandwidth BD - as can be seen in FIG.
- the bandwidth BD is 5%, so that an upward deviation A 0 from the combustion heat output FW by 3% and a deviation A u from the combustion heat output FW downwards by 2% is permissible.
- the amount of the feed water S supplied to the evaporator 4 per unit of time is therefore set by means of the control device 58 such that the evaporator throughput deviates from the percentage firing heat output FW only in a narrow range of preferably 5% to 10%. Even with a minimum throughput of less than 15%, i.e. Even if the evaporator throughput VD is limited to preferably 5% to 10% of the throughput at full load at the start of the start-up process, a uniform upward flow in all evaporator tubes 4 is ensured. Such a start-up behavior keeps start-up losses particularly low, since the low-load continuous operation is achieved with low efficiency.
- Circulation pumps or waste heat exchangers that have been used up to now can be dispensed with in this start-up method.
- water can be fed back into the feed water tank 18 and thus into the water-steam circuit directly via a return line 62, into which a valve 63 is connected, without additional pumps. Since there is therefore also a return of the feed water S from the water-steam separation vessel 20 in the direction of flow of the feed water S in front of the evaporator 4 or in front of the economizer 15 and thus behind the feed water container 18 can be dispensed with, a particularly simple regulation of the start-up process is achieved.
