This invention belongs to the field of buried
pipe backfilling technology, and relates to a backfilling structure and
layout method for medium-deep buried pipes with axial variable
thermal conductivity. The backfilling structure consists of an upper insulation section, a middle transition section, and a lower high-efficiency heat exchange section arranged sequentially from the surface to the well bottom. The depth range of each section increases sequentially, and the average
thermal conductivity of each section increases sequentially. The
layout method includes: obtaining and modeling basic parameters, establishing a material
library and parameterizing, constructing and solving an optimized model, interpreting the scheme, and designing segments. This invention can effectively suppress thermal short-circuiting at the
wellhead, significantly enhance deep heat extraction, improve
system performance, and extend the
sustainability of geothermal fields. Therefore, this invention reduces thermal disturbance in shallow strata, is conducive to the
thermal recovery of the rock and soil, and can slow down the performance degradation rate of the
system during long-term operation.
