ENERGY-SAVING OPTIMIZATION FOR A PUMPING PLANT

摘要

A method (100) for determining a set of optimal operating parameters O for a pumping plant (1), the method comprising: • determining (110), from a set (3) of parallel pumps (3a-3c), a set of K possible scenarios S1-K, wherein each scenario indicates, for each pump (3a-3c) in the set (3), whether the pump (3a-3c) is running or not running; • optimizing (120), for each scenario S1-K, a set of operating parameters O; • determining (150), from the set of scenarios S1-K, the scenario S* with the lowest power consumption P_min,S1*; and • determining (160) the sought optimal operating parameters O to be: running the pumps (3a-3c) that are to be run according to the scenario S* at the operating parameters O_opt,S* found for the scenario S*, and not running the pumps (3a-3c) that are not to be run according to the scenario S*. A method (200) for operating the pumping plant (1).
