Description
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

The present application is based on, and claims priority from, Taiwan Application Serial Number 102145679, filed on Dec. 11, 2013, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.


TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to a power supply and a control method for electrical energy management, and more particularly to the power supply and the corresponding electrical energy reservation method for variable speed blowing devices in which the regional demand control can achieved by evaluating criteria for the optimal regional demand.


BACKGROUND

The power supply and the control framework of conventional variable speed blowing devices shown in FIG. 1. When the blowing devices undergo a flow control to adjust the temperature according to a preset temperature, the central control system issues automatically speed commands of the blowing devices to all the control units of individual regional blowing devices, or speed commands are manually inputted to the control unit (for example, through the control panel to select a flow volume around strong, middle, and weak positions) such that the frequency-varying unit can adjusts the speed of the blowing device and the flow volume.


Currently, in majority of the conventional frequency-varying units, after the AC is transformed into a corresponding DC voltage by a power factor correction, a pulse width modulation (PWM) is performed to control the motor speed of the blowing device according to the speed commands. However, the conventional variable speed blowing devices under an electrical energy management control have at least the following shortcomings.


As shown, the renewable electrical energy source device is parallel coupled to the AC network via the current-varying and transforming unit, and thus does not directly provide power to the existing loads.


In the art, each blowing device or each appliance needs an accompanying AC power meter for measuring, and data of the power meter is forwarded to the electrical energy management system to generate a corresponding load command of the blowing device. The load command is then sent to the blowing devices for a control purpose by the communication unit. However, the total application cost is thus expensive due to the cost of installing the power meter, the usage of the communicative software and hardware, and the number of the blowing devices.


While in introducing the electrical energy management system to perform the demand control upon the blowing devices, if the total accumulative power consumption of the blowing devices exceeds the upper limit of the preset demand, a predetermined scheduling command for a regional priority load shedding, a circulating load shedding and so on would be generate and sent to the control unit of the corresponding blowing device via the communication unit. Thereafter, a speed reducing command would be performed to adjust the speed of the blowing device so as to reduce the load. Generally, the scheduling control command of the conventional variable speed blowing devices is less flexible and thus is opt to damage the original electrical energy management system even the preset speed command of the blowing device for the regional environmental conditions is obeyed. If the electrical energy management system fails, abnormal temperature changes such as over heat or over cool would happen to some regional environmental temperatures. Then, the total air-conditioning environment would present less comfort. Namely, the purpose of the demand control mechanism is not achieved.


SUMMARY

The present disclosure aims at the cost hike in power supply for a current power system, especially while in meeting an enlarged difference between the in-peak load and the off-peak load, by which the cost for providing power would be greatly increased by a huge investment paid for ensuring the power supply during the in-peak period. To ensure the power supply during the in-peak period, a big money will be invested to purchase sufficient facilities so as to afford the power demand during the short-term in-peak period. However, such a facility investment would seem to be redundant and thus uneconomic for the power demand in the off-peak period. Therefore, a power demand management upon the power system for reducing the cost of power supply anytime, increasing the facilities usage rate, and lowering the possibility of power shortage is definite important. Namely, by introducing the power demand management to the power system or power factory for efficiently controlling the electric load, the cost for power supply can be lowered, the shortage in power supply can be avoided, the fee for electricity to the consumers can be lowered, the usage rate of the facilities can be increased, the redundant power capacity during the off-peak period can be minimized, and the environmental pollution can be controlled.


In order to improve the demand control on the aforesaid conventional blowing devices, in which the AC power of the municipal power network is rectified by a power factor correction firstly so as to provide a constant terminal voltage to all the variable speed blowing devices and further the communication interface issues a speed command to proceed the speed control, a power supply for variable speed blowing devices is provided in this disclosure to integrate the DC/AC transformation and to dynamically vary terminal voltages. Also, an accompanying electrical energy management control method is provided to meet an optimal scheme for the maximum demand control.


The power supply and the electrical energy management method of this disclosure are applicable to the electrical energy-reserved control for variable speed blowing devices, in which the power supply include a rectification unit for performing the power factor correction, a DC voltage stabilizing unit, a control unit, an input unit, a communication unit, at least one DC voltage regulator unit with an electrical energy measuring function, and at least one set of variable speed blowing devices. The rectification unit and the DC voltage stabilizing unit of the power supply are energized by the municipal AC power network and a DC power source, respectively. The power supply can also have the renewable electrical energy source to supply power to the load via the DC voltage stabilizing unit. Namely, in this disclosure, both the rectification unit and the DC voltage stabilizing unit can be the power sources. The control unit utilizes input information of the input unit and the electrical energy measuring information of the at least one DC voltage regulator unit and further introduces the priority method to adjust the terminal voltages outputted from the at least one DC voltage regulator unit, such that the speeds of individual variable speed blowing devices can thus be controlled.


The control unit utilizes input information of the input unit and the electrical energy measuring information of the at least one DC voltage regulator unit and further introduces the priority method to adjust the terminal voltages outputted from the at least one DC voltage regulator unit, such that load shedding to the variable speed blowing devices can be performed so as to achieve the regional demand control.


The control unit can use the communication unit to output the electrical energy measuring information to a far-end electrical energy management system. Further, according to the optimal computation algorithms for system's electrical energy reservation, the optimal power consumption preset value of the blowing devices can be obtained. The optimal power consumption preset value of the blowing devices is then sent back to the control unit of the power supply so as to adjust the corresponding terminal voltages of the at least one DC voltage regulator unit. Then, the speed of the blowing device can be adjusted, and the optimal electrical energy-reserved control can be achieved. Hence, the power supply of this disclosure has functions at least in adjusting terminal voltages and in measuring the power consumption.


The electrical energy management method in this disclosure includes a step of the control unit accessing the preset demand's upper bound of the input unit, the priority information and the electrical energy measuring information of the at least one DC voltage regulator unit, and a step of the control unit introducing a modified priority computation method to calculate the modified power consumption preset value of the at least one DC voltage regulator unit. The foregoing computation method includes a step of the input unit giving priorities a1, a2, . . . , an for the at least one DC voltage regulator unit and the power demand's upper bound Pupp; a step of the control unit accessing the power consumption measuring information P1, P2, . . . , Pn and the total power consumption Psum (Psum=P1+P2+ . . . +Pn) of the at least one DC voltage regulator unit; a step of the control unit calculating the modified priorities b1, b2, . . . , bn and the sum of the modified priorities bsum (bsum=b1+b2+ . . . +bn),

Referring now to FIG. 2, a control framework of an embodiment of the variable speed blowing devices 1 for the power supply 2 is shown. The control framework includes at least one blowing device 1 (n shown in FIG. 2), a power supply 2, an electrical energy management system 3, and an environment-detecting information system 4.

Each of the DC voltage regulator units 26 is paired to a respective one of the blowing devices 1 and thus to energize the corresponding blowing device 1. Each of the flowing devices 1 further includes a control unit, an input unit, a frequency-varying drive unit and a motor. In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, the electrical energy management system 3 is signally connected with the environment-detecting information system 4 and the power supply 2, while the environment-detecting information system 4 is signally connected with the electrical energy management system 3.


The rectification unit 21 of the power supply 2 can be energized by the AC to perform the power factor correction so as to become a candidate of the DC source. The DC voltage stabilizing unit 22 can be energized by the DC to perform the voltage transformation so as to become another candidate of the DC source. The DC source is coupled with the DC voltage stabilizing unit 22 so as to supply power as a power source, or the renewable electrical energy source is coupled with the DC voltage stabilizing unit 22 to act as the DC source.

The control unit 23 utilizes the input information of the input unit 24 and the electrical energy measuring information of the at least one DC voltage regulator unit 26, and further introduces the priority method to adjust the output terminal voltages of the at least one DC voltage regulator unit 26 for controlling the operation of the variable speed blowing devices. The control unit 23 can also use the communication unit 25 to output the electrical energy measuring information to the far-end electrical energy management system, and also apply the electrical energy-reserved optimal computation method of the system to obtain the optimal power consumption preset values of the corresponding blowing devices. The optimal power consumption preset values are then forwarded back to the control units 23 of the power supply so as to adjust the terminal voltages outputted by the at least one DC voltage regulator unit 26, such that the speeds of the corresponding blowing devices can be adjusted, and the optimal regional electrical energy-reserved demand control can be achieved.

The power consumption of motor and the torque speed can be derived according to the following equations.






Ea=Ke×ωm





Pout=Tem×ωm


in which


Ea: terminal voltage, induced electromotive force


Ke: motor constant


ωm: motor speed


Pout: power consumption of motor


Tem: torque

In the figure, Ia stands for the field current, φf stands for the magnetic flux, and If stands for the armature current. Hence, if a specific speed region is assigned to be the domain of control, the power consumption of the motor can be adjusted to meet the terminal voltage (or, the programmable terminal voltage) so as to manage the motor. The control unit 23 has the power consumption preset value to be transformed into the DC voltage for the motor on the blowing device outputted from the at least one DC voltage regulator unit. The at least one DC voltage regulator unit outputs the DC voltage to the drive unit of the variable speed blowing device so as to make the blowing device achieve the operation of the preset power demand control.

In this embodiment, the control is performed as the far-end demand control externally in the electrical energy management system. While in performing the electrical energy management, the control unit 23 accesses the measuring electrical energy and the total output electrical energy outputted by the at least one DC voltage regulator unit, and the aforesaid two accessed information are immediately forwarded to the far-end electrical energy management system. The far-end electrical energy management system bases on the preset demand upper bound of the blowing devices, the output electrical energy of the at least one DC voltage regulator unit, the total output electrical energy thereof and the environmental detection information to obtain the optimal modified power consumption preset values after an optimal computation. Then, the far-end electrical energy management system sends the optimal modified power consumption preset values back to the control unit 23, and the control unit 23 transforms the modified power consumption preset values into the DC voltages outputted to the variable speed blowing devices from the at least one DC voltage regulator unit, referred to FIG. 4. In addition, the at least one DC voltage regulator unit is controlled to output the DC voltage to the drive unit of the variable speed blowing device, such that the controlled operation of the variable speed blowing device can be performed in accordance with the optimal computation of the electrical energy management system.

In this disclosure, the priorities a1, a2, . . . , an of the DC voltage regulator unit are all positive integrals, and the modified priorities b1, b2, . . . , bn are all positive reals.


In this disclosure, the optimal computation can be one of a gradient method, a simulated annealing method, a genetic algorithm, and a fuzzy algorithm.

(1) The power supply for variable speed blowing devices is compatible with both the AC source and the DC source, and is able to adjust dynamically the terminal voltages.

(4) The power supply of this disclosure includes plural electrical energy measuring functions, and thereby can reduce the cost by reducing the number of the communicative AC meters.


(5) In this disclosure, for the AC/DC transformation and the power factor correction are handled in the power supply, the cost of the blowing device can be reduced, the possibility of modularization can be increased, and the speed command of the blowing device can be realized by adjusting the terminal voltage of the power source so as to further reduce the cost of the blowing device by waiving the expense in communication.


(6) The electrical energy management method provided to the power supply of this disclosure can achieve the maximum demand control. For the demand control on the variable speed blowing devices is performed at the power supply (i.e. the power supply) in accordance with this disclosure, the complexity of the conventional electrical energy management in having the communication interfaces to couple the blowing devices in demand control and the accompanying cost in power meters, communication units, communicative platforms and demand controllers can be substantially reduced.
