Case study on improving reliability of heating branch network
Propose the method of adding chain branches between the main lines of the branched heating network,transforming the branched heating network into a circular heating network,in order to improve the reliability level of the heating network.On the basis of summarizing and sorting out the calculation methods of reliability indicators for domestic heating networks,a distance correction factor is introduced to adjust the reliability contribution.Optimization calculations were conducted on the reliability indicators of a certain branch heating network,and through comparative analysis,the optimal number and location of chain branches were proposed.As a result,the reliability indicators of the network were improved by 12.53%,reaching over 90%,greatly enhancing its reliability level.
