Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Regelung eines Verbrennungsprozesses, mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffs des Anspruches 1 sowie ein Regelkreis mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffs des Anspruches 8.The invention relates to a method for controlling a combustion process, with the features of the preamble of
Bei einem bekannten Verfahren dieser Art wird entweder automatisch auf Soll-Werte der Zustandsvariablen geregelt, indem die Ist-Werte mit den Soll-Werten verglichen und gegebenenfalls Aktionen, normalerweise Stelleingriffe, durchgeführt werden, oder auf eine Stabilität des Verbrennungsprozesses geregelt, indem Aktionen nur in geringem Umfang durchgeführt werden.In a known method of this type, either the setpoint values of the state variables are automatically regulated by comparing the actual values with the setpoint values and, if appropriate, performing actions, normally control interventions, or regulating the stability of the combustion process, by performing actions only in small scale.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art zu verbessern. Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 und durch einen Regelkreis mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 8 gelöst. Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.The present invention has for its object to improve a method of the type mentioned. This object is achieved by a method having the features of
Dadurch, dass zeitweilig von der Führungsregelung zu einer Störungsregelung gewechselt wird, gemäß welcher Aktionen auswählt werden, um Zustände des Systems in der Anlage anzufahren, bei denen die Zustandsvariablen innerhalb vorgegebener Grenzen gezielt vom optimalen Soll-Wert abweichen, werden zusätzliche Informationen beschafft, die eine verbesserte Regelung ermöglichen. Insbesondere kann dadurch vermieden werden, dass der Zustand des Systems in einem lokalen Minimum verharrt. Derartige Aktionen würden weder bei der Regelung auf Soll-Werte, welche gerade den Soll-Wert anstrebt, noch - da sie größere Änderungen des Zustandes anstreben - bei der Regelung auf die Stabilität des Verbrennungsprozesses durchgeführt werden. Es sind Kombinationen der beiden Regelungsfälle in der Art von Kompromissen möglich.By temporarily switching from the lead control to a fault control, according to which actions are selected to start states of the system in the plant in which the state variables within specified limits deliberately deviate from the optimum target value, additional information is obtained, the one allow for improved regulation. In particular, it can be avoided that the state of the system remains at a local minimum. Such actions would neither regulate to setpoint values which are currently targeting the set point, nor - as they seek greater changes in the state - control the stability of the combustion process be performed. Combinations of the two control cases are possible in the way of compromises.
Die Informationsbeschaffung kann in einer ordentlichen Störungsregelung regelmä-ßig und in möglichst umfassender Breite erfolgen. Zusätzlich (oder gegebenenfalls alternativ) können in einer außerordentlichen Störungsregelung bestimmte Bereiche von Zuständen intensiver getestet werden.Information can be procured regularly and in as wide a range as possible in a regular system of disruptions. In addition (or alternatively, if necessary), in an extraordinary disturbance regulation, certain regions of states may be more intensively tested.
Die Erfindung kann bei verschiedenen stationären thermodynamischen Anlagen, insbesondere Kraftwerken, Müllverbrennungsanlagen und Zementwerken, eingesetzt werden.The invention can be used in various stationary thermodynamic systems, in particular power plants, waste incineration plants and cement works.

Eine Anlage 1, beispielsweise ein Kohle-, Öl- oder Gaskraftwerk, eine Müllverbrennungsanlage oder ein Zementwerk, umfasst einen Ofen 3, worunter auch ein Rost verstanden werden soll, wenigstens eine Beobachtungsvorrichtung 5, welche das Innere des Ofens 3 (bzw. den Rost) bildlich erfassen kann, vorzugsweise weitere Sensoren 7, wenigstens eine Stellvorrichtung 9, und einen Rechner 11, an welchen die Beobachtungsvorrichtung(en) 5, weiteren Sensoren 7 und Stellvorrichtung(en) 9 angeschlossen sind.A
Dem Ofen 3 wird Brennstoff oder anderes umzusetzendes Material, kurz als Gut G bezeichnet, beispielsweise Kohle, Öl, Gas, Müll, Kalk oder dergleichen, sowie Primärluft (bzw. -sauerstoff) und Sekundärluft (bzw. -sauerstoff), kurz als Luft L bezeichnet, zugeführt, wobei diese Zufuhr durch die vom Rechner 11 ansteuerbaren Stellvorrichtungen 9 gesteuert wird. Im Ofen 3 findet ein Verbrennungsprozess statt. Der dadurch erzeugter Flammenkörper F (sowie gegebenenfalls Emissionen der Wände des Ofens 3) wird von den Beobachtungsvorrichtungen 5 laufend erfasst. Die Beobachtungsvorrichtungen 5 umfassen jeweils neben einem die Wand des Ofens 3 durchdringenden optischen Zugang, wie beispielsweise einer Lanze oder einer in der
Die Bilder des Flammenkörpers F (und der eventuellen Emissionen der Wände des. Ofens 3) werden im Rechner 11 ausgewertet, beispielsweise nach einem Eigenwert-Verfahren, das in der
Durch den Ofen 3 als (Regel-)Strecke, die Beobachtungsvorrichtung(en) 5 und die weiteren Sensoren 7, den Rechner 11 und die Stellvorrichtungen 9 wird ein Regelkreis definiert. Es kann auch ein konventioneller Regelkreis nur mit Ofen 3, Sensoren 7, Rechner 11 und Stellvorrichtungen 9 und ohne die Beobachtungsvorrichtung(en) 5 vorgesehen sein, dessen Regelung nur wenige Zustandsvariablen st berücksichtigt (d.h. niederdimensional ist) und dann durch die Einbeziehung der Beobachtungsvorrichtung(en) 5 optimiert wird. Das System in der Anlage 1 ist beispielsweise auf bestimmte Soll-Werte oder auf einen stabilen Prozess (d.h. einen ruhigen, quasistationären Betrieb der Anlage 1) hin regelbar. In beiden Fällen werden der durch die Ist-Werte der Zustandsvariablen s(t) beschriebene Zustand bewertet und gegebenenfalls geeignete Stellaktionen (Stelleingriffe), kurz als Aktionen ai bezeichnet, ausgewählt, welche von den Stellvorrichtungen 9 auszuführen sind. Neben der Zufuhr von Gut G und Luft L können weitere Tätigkeiten von Stellvorrichtungen 9 und gegebenenfalls auch eine Probenentnahme eine Aktion ai in erfindungsgemäßen Sinne sein. Auch Störungen können als ungewollte Aktionen ai behandelt werden. Es sind einstellbare Kombinationen der beiden vorgenannten Regelungsfälle denkbar, die dann Kompromisse darstellen.Through the
Die Bewertung des Zustandes und die Auswahl der geeigneten Aktionen ai kann beispielsweise gemäß einem Verfahren erfolgen, wie es in der
Vorzugsweise sind im Rechner 11 drei (oder vier) Prozessmodelle (in jeweils einem eigenen neuronalen Netz) gespeichert, von denen je eines auf ein kurzes (t1-t0), ein (oder zwei) mittleres (t2-t0) und ein längeres (t2-t0) Zeitintervall hin gelernte Verknüpfungen enthält. Entsprechend sind damit kurzfristige, mittelfristige und längerfristige Vorhersagen möglich. Die besagten Zeitintervalle bewegen sich je nach Anlage 1 zwischen etwa einigen Sekunden und einigen Stunden. Die Zustandsvariablen s(t) sollen und können in der Regel innerhalb bestimmter Grenzen, d.h. innerhalb eines Intervalls, variieren, beispielsweise zwischen einem unteren Grenzwert sl und einem oberen Grenzwert Sh um einen optimalen Soll-Wert So herum. Die Werte sl, sh und so können zeitabhängig sein. Die kurzfristigen, mittelfristigen und längerfristigen Vorhersagen dienen dazu, den Unterschied von s(t) zum optimalen Soll-Wert so (das Optimierungsziel rj wäre vorliegend beispielsweise, dass s(t) - so = 0 oder zumindest minimal wird) und die Einhaltung dieser Grenzen (Grenzwerte sl, sh) abzuschätzen und das voraussichtliche Erfordernis von Aktionen a' zu erkennen. Die zeitliche Entwicklung einer Zustandsvariable s(t) bis zum Zeitpunkt t = t0 sowie die kurzfristige Vorhersage für t = t1, die mittelfristige Vorhersage für t = t2 und die langfristige Vorhersage für t = t3 sind vereinfacht in
Zur Verbesserung der Genauigkeit werden nicht nur die Prozessmodelle durch die tatsächlichen Entwicklungen der Zustandsvariablen s(t) als Reaktion auf Aktionen a' laufend ergänzt, sondern es findet ein Wettbewerb mehrerer Prozessmodelle hinsichtlich der Qualität der Vorhersagen statt. Hierzu werden im Hintergrund alternative Prozessmodelle, beispielsweise mit anderen Topologien, aufgestellt und trainiert, deren Vorhersagen mit den aktuell verwendeten Prozessmodellen verglichen werden, um letztere gegebenenfalls zu ersetzen, wie es beispielsweise in der
Erfindungsgemäß ist ein Wechsel von der normalen Regelung, der sogenannten Führungsregelung, zu einer Störungsregelung (und zurück) möglich, bei welcher der Rechner 11 Testsignale abgibt, damit - ohne Rücksicht auf die Optimierungsziele rj - verschiedene Aktionen a' vorgenommen werden, um in verschiedene Richtungen gezielt zunächst benachbarte (d.h. zum jeweils aktuellen Zustand bezüglich der Zustandsvariablen s(t) benachbarte) Zustände anzufahren und vorzugsweise - durch sukzessive Aneinanderreihung des Anfahrens - auch entfernter gelegene Zustände zu erreichen. Um den Betrieb der Anlage 1 nicht zu behindern oder gar zu stören, werden allerdings nur Zustände innerhalb der Grenzen (Grenzwerte sl, sh) der Zustandsvariablen s(t) als Ziel ausgewählt, d.h. nur Aktionen ausgewählt, auf die hin die Zustandsvariablen s(t) voraussichtlich innerhalb ihrer Grenzen bleiben.According to the invention, a change from the normal control, the so-called command control, to a fault control (and back) is possible, in which the
Der Rechner 11 startet eine "ordentliche" Störungsregelung regelmäßig, beispielsweise ca. alle sieben Tage, spätestens jedoch alle vier Wochen, wobei möglichst viele, vorzugsweise innerhalb der Grenzen möglichst gleichmäßig verteilte Zustände angefahren werden. Wenn bei der Regelung häufig die gleiche Problematik auftritt, startet der Rechner 11 eine "außerordentliche" Störungsregelung. Eine solche Problematik liegt beispielsweise vor, wenn die Zustandsvariablen s(t) häufig zu einer Grenze (Grenzwerte sl, sh) hin tendieren, d.h. der Mittelwert driftet, und/oder häufig Aktionen a' notwendig sind, um Abweichungen auszugleichen, und/oder sonstige Unvereinbarkeiten der Regelungen auf Soll-Werte (Optimierungsziele rj) und auf einen stabilen Prozess auftreten. Bei der außerordentlichen Störungsregelung können besonders Zustände angefahren werden, die auf die auslösenden Problematik abgestimmt sind, beispielsweise je nach Lösungsstrategie in Richtung der Problematik oder genau entgegengesetzt gewählt werden.The
