Dynamic simulation reveals impacts of heat extraction on frequency regulation in a 300 MW power unit.
This study conducts an in-depth analysis of the dynamic characteristics of a single reheat steam turbine generator unit and its speed control system under variable operating conditions. A comprehensive simulation model was constructed to comprehensively evaluate the impact of the heat extraction system on the dynamic behavior of the unit, which integrates the speed control system, actuator, single reheat steam turbine body, and once-through boiler dynamic coupling. This model focuses on revealing the mechanism of the heat extraction regulation process on the core operating parameters of the unit and the system frequency regulation capability. Based on the actual parameters of a 300 MW heat unit in a power plant in Guangxi, the dynamic response of the established model under typical dynamic conditions such as extraction flow regulation, primary frequency regulation response, and load step disturbance was simulated and experimentally verified. The results show that the model can accurately characterize the dynamic characteristics of the heat unit under variable operating conditions, and the simulation results are in good agreement with the actual engineering, with errors within an acceptable range, effectively verifying the dynamic performance of the heat system module and the rationality of its control parameter design. This study provides a reliable theoretical basis and model support for the accurate simulation of the dynamic behavior of heat units in the power system and the design of optimization control strategies for system frequency regulation.
