Description

Genetic algorithm-based boiler operation optimization method, device and system, electronic equipment and storage medium Technical Field The invention relates to the technical field of circulating fluidized bed boiler control, in particular to a boiler operation optimization method, device and system based on a genetic algorithm, electronic equipment and storage medium. Background A Circulating Fluidized Bed (CFB) boiler is widely used in the fields of electric power and industrial heat supply as a combustion apparatus with high efficiency and cleanliness. To further reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions, flue Gas Recirculation (FGR) techniques are introduced into CFB boiler systems to reduce the combustion zone temperature and oxygen concentration by recirculating a portion of the low temperature flue gas to the furnace to inhibit NOx production. However, the introduction of flue gas recirculation increases the variables of the boiler system, the coupling relation among multiple variables such as coal feeding, air distribution, recirculation and the like is complex, and higher requirements are put on operation control. At present, CFB boiler operation optimization with flue gas recirculation mainly relies on empirical adjustment by operators or single loop PID control based on fixed rules. The method has the remarkable limitation that firstly, operators can only locally adjust according to a few key parameters (such as main steam temperature and oxygen amount), and the method is difficult to systematically and cooperatively optimize all adjustable variables such as coal feeding, primary and secondary air proportioning, flue gas recirculation amount and the like, and cannot realize global optimal operation aiming at comprehensive economy. Secondly, the response of manual operation is lagged and greatly influenced by personal experience, so that the running economy and stability of the boiler fluctuate. In addition, when boundary conditions such as boiler load, coal quality and the like are changed, the original experience or fixed control strategy is difficult to be quickly and adaptively adjusted, and a longer fumbling process is required. Some existing advanced optimization methods, such as offline models (for example, support vector machines) based on historical data training, also have the problem of insufficient adaptability, are difficult to make quick response and dynamic optimization on working conditions which change in real time, and are difficult to realize global minimization of the total operation cost of the boiler on the premise of meeting various safety and environmental protection constraints.
