Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model mainly relates to the technical field of geothermal energy development, in particular to a coaxial heat exchange device for medium-deep geothermal energy. Background Art

[0002] As a widely distributed, abundant, safe, and stable renewable energy source, geothermal energy boasts high energy efficiency, strong reliability, low cost, and significant emission reduction advantages. It will play a vital role in my country's energy structure transformation. High-quality, clean geothermal energy development will contribute to achieving my country's "carbon peak" and "carbon neutrality" goals. Traditional geothermal energy development typically involves directly extracting high-temperature groundwater from shallow or deep formations, extracting heat through plate heat exchangers, and then reinjecting it. This approach involves large water intake, small heat exchange temperature differences, difficulty in tailwater reinjection, and the potential for damage to the underground environment, leading to ground collapse. Consequently, geothermal energy development and utilization are severely limited. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention is realized through the following technical solutions:

[0004] A coaxial heat exchange device for medium-deep geothermal energy includes a well pipe, characterized in that a connecting pipe is fixedly arranged on the top of the well pipe, an outer pipe is fixedly arranged on the top of the connecting pipe, a reducing pipe is fixedly arranged near the top of the outer pipe, an inner pipe is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the reducing pipe, a circulation pipe is arranged inside the inner pipe, the circulation pipe passes through the outer pipe and the reducing pipe, and spiral blades are arranged in an array on the outer circle of the circulation pipe.

[0005] A sealing sleeve is fixedly provided on the outer ring of the circulation pipe, and the outer ring of the sealing sleeve abuts against the outer pipe and the reducing pipe.

[0006] A water inlet pipe is fixedly arranged on the outer ring of the reducer, and the water inlet pipe passes through the side surface of the outer pipe.

[0007] The outer ring of the connecting pipe is symmetrically fixed with interfaces.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
