Atomized spray assembly for water-gas well

Abstract

The invention discloses an atomizing spray assembly for water and gas wells, which includes a core body and a casing. The end of the casing is provided with a spray hole, and an inner conical surface is arranged at one end of the core body. The inner conical surface and the inner wall of the casing The air inlet cavity is formed, and the other end of the core body has a through hole facing the jet hole, and a plurality of swirl vanes are installed on the inner wall of the through hole, and the through hole and the inner wall of the core body form a swirl flow cavity, in the middle of the core body An annular convection groove is provided, and two air holes are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the convection groove. When the gas-liquid two-phase mixture in the gas well starts to rise under the push of the pressure in the well, the gas-liquid mixture enters the intake cavity and then compresses its volume through the inner conical surface, thereby increasing the flow velocity of the gas-liquid mixture. When the mixture enters the swirl cavity, the fluid and the swirl blades are in contact with each other, and the fluid is driven to rotate by the swirl blades, and finally the gas-liquid mixture is thrown out of the jet hole by the centrifugal force generated by the rotation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of downhole gas production, in particular to an atomized spray assembly for water and gas wells. Background technique [0002] At the beginning of a small amount of liquid accumulation at the bottom of the gas well, the liquid in the wellbore can be taken out of the wellbore by the gas using its own upward force, and the gas well can still produce normally. The gas flow rate is called the liquid-carrying critical flow rate of the gas well; when the actual flow rate of the gas in the wellbore is lower than the critical flow rate, the gas flow cannot take the liquid in the well out of the wellhead by its own lifting force. In the prior art, a straight nozzle is usually used, and the liquid obtains greater kinetic energy after being pressurized. After passing through the nozzle, the liquid will be ejected at a high speed. Under the interaction of the surface tension, viscosity and air resistance of the liquid, the liquid...

Problems solved by technology

In the prior art, a straight nozzle is usually used, and the liquid obtains greater kinetic energy after being pressurized. After passing through the nozzle, the liquid will be ejected at a high speed. Under the interaction of the surface tension, viscosity and air resistance of the liquid, the liquid will The dripping, smooth flow, and wavy flow gradually change to the spray flow, and finally realize the two-phase separation of gas and liquid; but because the water flow discharged from the direct injection nozzle has surface tension, it needs to continuously flow downhole during the process of the liquid turning into a spray flow. Only by pressurizing can the liquid be ejected at a high speed and rub against the surrounding air to separate and atomize, and the higher the downhole air pressure, the lower the safety and reliability faced during gas production, which can easily lead to safety accidents
