Abstract

Solar thermal power generation solves the problem of fluctuation and intermittency through energy storage system, and can bear the basic power load and peak load regulation. It is an important technical way for China's energy structure transformation. As a complex thermal system with multivariable disturbance, large inertia and large delay, the operation control of the solar field is a difficult issue. In this paper, the solar field of the first 50 MW trough solar thermal demonstration power plant in China is taken as the research object. Based on the topological structure and working principle of the solar field and the basic laws of optics and thermodynamics, the hydrodynamic calculation model and the heat transfer dynamic model are developed. The correctness of the model is verified by comparing the simulation results with the actual operation data. On this basis, the disturbance simulations are carried out. In addition, the dynamic response curves of step disturbance and the inertia time constant of the heat collecting loops are obtained. The conclusions of this paper have important guiding significance for the operation control strategy formulation and system optimization design of trough solar thermal power generation system.
