Then, step 508 is performed to detect the power consumption W generated by all the inverter fans in the fan group. Times the sum of power consumption of the power consumption W of this group, all the fan system frequency generated by the fan.
藉由進行步驟502至步驟508,以取得出口水溫T cwout 、入口水溫T 1~T N 、空氣溫度T air 、空氣濕度H和耗電功率W等冷卻水塔相關數據。接著,進行步驟510,藉由式(1)以得到預測出口水溫T' cwout 。 By performing steps 502 to 508, cooling tower related data such as the outlet water temperature T cwout , the inlet water temperature T 1 to T N , the air temperature T air , the air humidity H, and the power consumption W are obtained. Next, step 510 is performed to obtain the predicted outlet water temperature T ' cwout by the formula (1).
接著,進行步驟512,根據在步驟510中得到的預測出口水溫T' cwout 調整風扇組的操作,以控制冷卻水塔的出口水溫。詳細而言,在步驟512中,首先設定冷卻水塔的上限出口水溫T d ,接著藉由式(2)計算出預測耗電功率W'。在式(2)中,預測耗電功率W'的預測時間點與預測出口水溫T' cwout 的預測時間點相同。風扇組的調整操作頻率F adj 為預測耗電功率W'的函數。因此,在計算出預測耗電功率W'後, 利用調整操作頻率F adj 和預測耗電功率W'的函數關係,將預測耗電功率W'轉換為調整操作頻率F adj ,然後再依據調整操作頻率F adj 控制風扇組的操作,例如調整風扇組中每一變頻風扇的開關狀態或轉速。 Next, in step 512, the prediction of the outlet water temperature T obtained in step 510 'cwout adjust the operation of the fan groups to control the outlet temperature of the cooling towers. Specifically, in step 512, first sets the upper limit of the cooling tower outlet water temperature T d, is then calculated by the formula (2) the predicted power consumption W '. In the formula (2), the predicted power consumption W 'predicted time point and the prediction of the outlet temperature T' of the same cwout predicted time point. The adjustment operating frequency F adj of the fan group is a function of the predicted power consumption W ′. Therefore, after calculating the predicted power consumption power W ′, the predicted power consumption power W ′ is converted into the adjustment operation frequency F adj by using the function relationship between the adjustment operation frequency F adj and the predicted power consumption power W ′, and then according to the adjustment operation. The frequency F adj controls the operation of the fan group, for example, adjusting the switching state or the rotational speed of each inverter fan in the fan group.
藉由進行本發明的前饋控制方法500,可使冷卻水塔在預測出口水溫T' cwout 不超過上限出口水溫T d 的前提下,有效降低風扇組的耗電功率,減少風扇組過度運轉所產生的額外功率消耗,進而達成節能的功效。此外,前饋控制方法500亦提供操作的便利性,使用者只需要設定上限出口水溫T d ,便可自動控制風扇組以最有效率的方式運作。 Feedforward control method of the present invention is performed by 500, can predict the cooling tower outlet water in the premise T 'cwout not exceed the upper limit temperature T d of the outlet to effectively reduce power consumption of the fan assembly, the fan assembly to reduce overrunning The extra power consumption generated, in turn, achieves energy savings. In addition, feed forward control 500 also provides a convenient method of operation, the user only needs to set the upper limit of the outlet water temperature T d, the control will automatically set the fan operating in the most efficient manner.
應注意的是,式(1)中係數a、b、c i 、d、e和f的值可根據不同情況做對應調整,例如預測出口水溫T' cwout 和出口水溫T cwout 的時間間隔、冷卻水塔內水槽尺寸或系統穩定時間等。此外,在其他實施例中,步驟502可改變為偵測冷卻水塔中水槽內的水溫。 It should be noted that the values of the coefficients a , b , c i , d , e and f in the formula (1) can be adjusted according to different situations, for example, the time interval between the predicted outlet water temperature T ' cwout and the outlet water temperature T cwout is predicted . , the size of the water tank in the cooling tower or the system stabilization time. Moreover, in other embodiments, step 502 can be changed to detect the temperature of the water in the sink in the cooling tower.
