Abstract:As a "bridge" connecting inter-regional and user-side integrated energy systems, the coordinated configuration and operation of a district thermal-electricity integrated energy system is a topic worthy of attention. A thermal network model considering variable flow direction regulation operation is established, which is transformed into second-order cone form by relaxed combination with penalty function. Further combined with other equipment and power grid flow models, a collaborative optimal allocation model is established. The device configuration strategy under this model can simultaneously optimize the location and capacity of multiple device access nodes. The results show that compared with traditional allocation strategies, the allocation strategy that simultaneously considers both equipment capacity and node location can reduce equipment capacity redundancy and lower planning and operating costs. The thermal network model with variable flow direction can provide more flexible operation modes to increase the flexibility of equipment configuration and obtain configuration solutions with lower costs.
