Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of geothermal resource development, and in particular relates to a single-well circulating hydrothermal underground heat extraction system and method. Background Art

[0002] As global energy demand grows, clean energy is gradually gaining more and more attention. Geothermal energy, as a renewable, clean and stable energy resource, is gaining more and more attention and application around the world.

[0003] As a clean and renewable way of utilizing energy, underground heat exchange has received extensive attention in recent years. Compared with the traditional air source heat pump system, the underground heat exchange system has the advantages of more stable heat source temperature, higher thermal efficiency, and less energy consumption. In the underground heat exchange system, hot water circulates through the U-shaped pipe buried underground to transfer heat, exchange heat with the surrounding soil underground, and then transfers it back to the ground for heating or cooling.

[0004] In underground heat exchange systems, the single-well circulation mode is a commonly used system form. Injection of water from different layers in the same well is mostly done directly by drilling holes in the well body. Although the pressure is increased by a ground pressure pump, it is still difficult to obtain a high pressure after thousands of meters. In addition, the material and pressure limitations of the well body and pipe wall make the water flow farther laterally. The existing vertical pipes in different layers in the prior art are close to the heat collector, which can easily cause the seepage water to flow along the well wall, resulting in safety problems of the well, and also cause thermal short circuit problems.

[0050] The heat pump system 6 has a hot water inlet and a cold water outlet. The hot water inlet is connected to the upper end of the inner tube 4, and the cold water outlet is connected to the upper end of the outer ring tube 2. The heat pump system 6 is used for heat exchange with the hot water storage.

[0051] It should be noted that the arrangement of the first transverse pipe 3 and the second transverse pipe 5 avoids the wellbore safety problem that may be caused by the flow scouring along the well wall caused by the long-term direct water injection of the vertical pipe in the traditional technology. It also effectively expands the amount and area of ​​water involved in the circulation, and solves the thermal short circuit problem caused by the cold water reflux in the vicinity caused by the long-term direct water injection of the vertical pipe in the traditional technology.

[0069] Step 5: The system is running, the lifting pump 82 and the submersible pump 81 are turned on, and the hot water enters the heat pump system 6 from the second aquifer through the second transverse pipe 5 and the inner pipe 4. The heat pump system 6 is used to supply the demand side after heat exchange with the hot storage water with a higher temperature; after a period of time, the circulation pump 83 is turned on, and the hot storage water with a lower temperature after heat exchange is injected into the first aquifer through the outer ring pipe 2 and the first transverse pipe 3, and then penetrates into the second aquifer through the weak permeable layer. During this period, sufficient heat exchange is completed with the formation to increase its own temperature, replenish the water volume pumped out of the second aquifer, and maintain its temperature field and pressure field.

[0070] Repeat the operation steps to achieve continuous heat extraction.

A single-well circulating hydrothermal underground heat extraction system as claimed in claim 6, characterized in that: The circulating pump group comprises: Submersible pumps (81), the number of which corresponds to the number of the second transverse pipes (5), and are arranged one-to-one in a side of the second transverse pipe (5) close to the inner pipe (4), and the submersible pumps (81) are used to pump the hot water stored in the second aquifer into the second transverse pipe (5); A lifting pump (82), the water inlet of which is connected to the inner pipe (4) and the water outlet of which is connected to the heat pump system (6), is used to lift the hot stored water to the ground; A circulation pump (83) has a water inlet connected to the heat pump system (6) and a water outlet connected to the outer ring pipe (2), and is used to discharge the hot stored water after heat exchange into the outer ring pipe (2).

8. A single-well circulating hydrothermal underground heat extraction method, characterized in that: Using the underground heat extraction system described in any one of claims 1 to 7 to extract heat comprises the following steps: Determine the drilling position of the geothermal well, drill the well, lower the vertical casing and fix it; use the downhole diverter to perform side drilling and window opening in the formation at the first horizontal pipe depth position, complete the second opening drilling operation, and lower the horizontal casing; use the downhole diverter to perform side drilling and window opening in the formation at the second horizontal pipe depth position, complete the second opening drilling operation, and lower the horizontal casing; The second transverse pipe (5), the first transverse pipe (3), the inner pipe (4), and the outer annular pipe (2) are sequentially lowered, and the thermal insulation material is laid; the space between the second transverse pipe (5) and the inner pipe (4), and the space between the first transverse pipe (3) and the outer annular pipe (2) are sequentially sealed; Connect the heat pump system (6) with the outer ring pipe (2) and the inner pipe (4) to complete the connection and fixation of the ground system: Operation: hot water enters the heat pump system (6) from the second aquifer through the second transverse pipe (5) and the inner pipe (4). The heat pump system (6) is used to exchange heat with the hot storage water with a higher temperature and then supply it to the demand side. The hot storage water with a lower temperature after the heat exchange is injected into the first aquifer through the outer ring pipe (2) and the first transverse pipe (3), and then penetrates into the second aquifer through the weakly permeable layer. During this period, sufficient heat exchange is completed with the formation to increase its own temperature, replenish the amount of water pumped out of the second aquifer, and maintain its temperature field and pressure field. Repeat the operation steps to achieve continuous heat extraction.
