The following describes example embodiments of the present disclosure in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 schematically shows a flowchart of a cooling tower control method 100 according to a first embodiment of the present disclosure.
Referring to fig. 1, a cooling tower control method 100 may include:
step S102, acquiring environmental temperature and humidity data of a space where each cooling tower in the central air conditioning system is located;
step S104, obtaining the total water demand data of the cooling water of the host in the central air conditioning system;
step S106, calculating cooling tower starting number data according to the cooling water total water demand data, and controlling to increase or decrease the starting number of the cooling tower according to the cooling tower starting number data;
and S108, calculating an optimal cooling water supply temperature value according to the environmental temperature and humidity data, and controlling and adjusting a cooling tower fan rotating speed output value according to the optimal cooling water supply temperature value.
Next, each step of the cooling tower control method 100 will be described in detail.
In step S102, environmental temperature and humidity data of a space where each cooling tower in the central air conditioning system is located is obtained.
The cooling tower is a device which uses water as a circulating coolant, absorbs heat from a system and discharges the heat to the atmosphere so as to reduce the water temperature; the cold is an evaporation heat-dissipating device which utilizes the principles of evaporation heat dissipation, convection heat transfer, radiation heat transfer and the like of heat taken away by evaporation heat generated in industry or refrigeration air conditioner to reduce water temperature by utilizing the heat exchange after water is in flowing contact with air to generate steam, so as to ensure the normal operation of a system. Cooling towers are typically installed outdoors, such as on the roof of a house. In step S102, a temperature and humidity sensor is disposed on a roof of the cooling tower to obtain environmental temperature and humidity data of a space where the cooling tower is located, and the environmental temperature and humidity data is used for calculating a wet bulb temperature of the cooling tower. Wet bulb temperature represents the lowest temperature that water can reach by evaporation at a certain point for a certain time. I.e. the lowest temperature to which the water may be cooled in the cooling tower, i.e. the lowest limit value for the outlet water temperature of the cooling tower. The outlet water temperature of the cooling tower cannot be practically equal to or lower than the wet bulb temperature, and is generally higher than the wet bulb temperature by more than 4 ℃, namely, the approximation degree is more than or equal to 4 ℃. The smaller the approximation, the more difficult it is to reach. The determination of the wet bulb temperature of the cooling tower is closely related to the setting of the optimal cooling temperature of the cooling tower.
Step S104, obtaining the total water demand data of the cooling water of the host in the central air conditioning system.
In general, the total cooling water volume of a plurality of cooling towers in a central air conditioning system is related to the cooling capacity requirement of a host machine. Because the water distribution amount of each cooling tower has a limit water amount interval, in step S104, the total water amount requirement data of the cooling water of the host is obtained, so as to determine how many cooling towers should be opened to match the refrigeration requirement of the host.
And S106, calculating cooling tower starting number data according to the cooling water total water demand data, and controlling to increase or decrease the starting number of the cooling tower according to the cooling tower starting number data.
And (3) according to the total water demand data of the main machine cooling water obtained in the step S104, the total cooling water demand of the cooling towers can be converted, and the number of the cooling towers which are started can be calculated by dividing the total cooling water quantity by the minimum uniform water distribution quantity of each cooling tower. And the total controller is arranged to receive the cooling tower start number instruction and then control to increase or decrease the start number of the cooling tower, so that the traditional manual setting method is replaced by a system automatic control mode to match the heat exchange capacity of the cooling tower, and the effect of lowest system energy consumption is achieved.
And S108, calculating an optimal cooling water supply temperature value according to the environmental temperature and humidity data, and controlling and adjusting a cooling tower fan rotating speed output value according to the optimal cooling water supply temperature value.
And S108, determining the wet bulb temperature of the cooling towers according to the detected environmental temperature and humidity data of each cooling tower, writing a conversion formula of the wet bulb temperature and the optimal cooling water supply temperature into a controller operation program, and calculating the optimal cooling water supply temperature value of each cooling tower according to the relation between the water outlet temperature of the cooling towers and the heat exchange area so as to control the rotating speed of each cooling tower fan, thereby automatically optimizing the cooling water supply temperature and realizing the lowest total energy consumption of the system.
According to the cooling tower control method, the environmental temperature and humidity data of the space where each cooling tower is located in the central air conditioning system and the total water quantity demand data of the cooling water of the main machine in the central air conditioning system are obtained, the cooling tower opening number data is calculated according to the total water quantity demand data of the cooling water, the starting number of the cooling towers is controlled to be increased or decreased according to the cooling tower opening number data, the optimal cooling water supply temperature value is calculated according to the environmental temperature and humidity data, and the cooling tower fan rotating speed output value is controlled and adjusted according to the optimal cooling water supply temperature value. The cooling tower control method and the control system can intelligently and efficiently control the operation of the cooling tower, fully utilize the heat exchange capacity and the heat exchange area of the cooling tower by using the optimal control strategy, and realize the lowest total energy consumption of the system.
Fig. 2 schematically illustrates a flow chart of a cooling tower control method 200 in a second embodiment of the present disclosure.
Referring to fig. 2, the second embodiment cooling tower control method 200 in fig. 2 differs from the first embodiment cooling tower control method 100 in fig. 1 in that step S210 is added: and acquiring water inlet temperature data and water outlet temperature data of the cooling tower, calculating a water inlet temperature adjustment value of a host according to the water inlet temperature data and the water outlet temperature data, and adjusting and controlling the opening of a bypass valve connected between a water inlet end and a water outlet end of the cooling tower through the water inlet temperature adjustment value of the host.
The bypass valve is arranged between the water inlet end and the water outlet end of the cooling tower and is used for controlling the cooling water temperature flowing into the host machine, and the water temperature flowing into the host machine cannot be lower than the lowest bearable value of the host machine. Therefore, if the outlet water temperature sensor detects that the cooling water temperature entering the host machine is too low, the opening degree of the bypass valve needs to be increased, and part of the cooling water is directly circulated back to the host machine without radiating heat through the cooling tower. Therefore, step S210 can obtain the water inlet temperature data and the water outlet temperature data of the cooling tower, calculate the water inlet temperature adjustment value of the host according to the water inlet temperature data and the water outlet temperature data, and adjust and control the opening of the bypass valve connected between the water inlet end and the water outlet end of the cooling tower through the water inlet temperature adjustment value of the host, thereby ensuring that the bypass valve can be automatically opened under the conditions of cool weather and low water supply temperature of the cooling water, improving the water inlet temperature of the host, and avoiding the shutdown condition of the host.

Referring to fig. 3, the cooling tower control method 300 of the third embodiment in fig. 3 differs from the cooling tower control method 200 of the second embodiment in fig. 2 in that step S312 is added: and acquiring icing detection data of an air inlet window of the cooling tower, and judging whether a reverse deicing mode of the cooling tower fan needs to be started or not according to the icing detection data.
In winter, the phenomenon that the air inlet window of the cooling tower is frozen often occurs, which can seriously affect the operation of the cooling tower. Step S312 is to set an electronic icing detector on the air inlet window of the cooling tower, if the air inlet window of the cooling tower is iced, the reversing deicing mode of starting the fan of the cooling tower can be automatically controlled, deicing is carried out by reversing the fan for a certain time until the mode of forward running of the fan is automatically restored after the icing condition is detected to be eliminated.

When the cooling tower fails, for example, the cooling tower has overlarge circulating water quantity, insufficient ventilation quantity of the cooling tower, overhigh water inlet temperature of the cooling tower, short circuit of air suction and exhaust of the cooling tower, overhigh outdoor wet bulb temperature of the cooling tower, or the cooling tower fan has the faults of reduced fan rotating speed, damaged fan blades and the like, the step S414 can automatically detect the faults of the fan and the cooling tower, automatically acquire fault data of the cooling tower and the cooling tower fan and send an alarm prompt to the operation total station.
