Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of new energy combined power generation, and in particular relates to a combined power generation system of ocean temperature difference energy and geothermal energy. Background technique
[0002] Energy is indispensable for human survival and economic development. 70% of the earth's surface area is ocean, and the ocean is a huge energy pool. About 2 / 3 of the energy injected by the sun into the earth's surface is used to heat the surface seawater, and the temperature difference between it and the deep water exceeds 20°C. Theoretically, hot water can be used for power generation at a temperature difference of 16.6°C, so tropical oceans with a latitude of 20 degrees north and south are suitable for temperature difference power generation. According to calculations, if half of the ocean surface between north and south latitudes is used for power generation, the water temperature will only drop by 1°C on avera...
