| Summary: | Focusing on the power consumption of a regional multi-energy system with the characteristics of energy congestion in students’ dormitory buildings in the hot summer and warm winter regions of southern China, a practical regional multi-energy system consisting of three subsystems, namely an integrated screw chiller (ISC), a screw ground-source heat pump (SGSHP), and an air-source heat pump (ASHP), was optimised by the operation control strategy. The system’s power consumption and cooling/heating load characteristics during operation were analysed, and changes in the terminal air-conditioning load were simulated. Based on the dynamic cooling and heating load of the building, a two-stage loading strategy was proposed for optimising the system operation. Taking the load demand matching requirement of the system output and the terminal load demand as constraints, a simulation model of the system was developed using TRNSYS 16 software, and the changes in power consumption and the cooling/heating capacity before and after optimisation were analysed. The results show that the optimised system reduced annual power consumption by approximately 19% and increased condensation heat recovery by about 2.3%. The optimised operation control strategy was aligned well with the terminal cooling and heating demands. |
