Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of high-temperature geothermal field heat storage engineering testing, and in particular to a device and method for measuring non-condensable gas in high-temperature geothermal fluid. Background Art

[0002] Scaling is a common phenomenon in geothermal systems during operation, and they all face the problem of scaling in wellbores and pipe networks. In the shallow geothermal wells of Yangbajing Geothermal Field, a typical geothermal field in Tibet, the scaling type is mostly carbonate scaling, which has seriously affected the production of Yangbajing Geothermal Field. Other geothermal fields in the Tibetan Plateau also have scaling problems. In order to solve the problem of scaling prevention and scale inhibition of high-temperature geothermal wells, it is necessary to add scale inhibitors below the flash surface. Therefore, the determination of the flash surface position is an urgent issue. Many scholars at home and abroad have conducted research on flash trends and scaling positions, and analyzed that the main influencing factors are the heat storage pressure, flow rate and carbon dioxide content in the fluid.

[0003] Carbonate scale generally occurs near and above the flash surface in the wellbore, usually in the presence of calcium-rich high CO 2 Fluid lean CO 2 Fluids are more likely to deposit calcite and CO must be monitored during production 2 Changes in concentration can be used to adjust the amount and location of antiscalant addition.

[0004] In addition, in the power generation system, a relatively high concentration of non-condensable gas refers to the general term for gases that cannot condense into liquid form with water vapor during the cooling process of geothermal fluids. The main components are carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, hydrogen, methane, nitrogen, helium, argon, etc. During the discharge of non-condensable gas, steam will be taken away, reducing the thermal conversion efficiency of the unit. Therefore, the content of non-condensable gas must be accurately measured during the capacity testing and production process of high-temperature geothermal fields. Summary of the invention

[0005] One of the purposes of the present invention is to provide a device for measuring non-condensable gas in high-temperature geothermal fluid to solve the above-mentioned problem.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: a device for measuring non-condensable gas in high-temperature geothermal fluid, comprising a steam-water separator, wherein the outlet end of the steam-water separator is respectively connected to a liquid phase cooling pool and a gas phase cooling pool, the other end of the liquid phase cooling pool is connected to a non-condensable gas collecting device through a liquid phase water inlet pipe, the other end of the gas phase cooling pool is also connected to a non-condensable gas collecting device through a gas phase water inlet pipe, and the non-condensable gas collecting device is connected to a water collecting tank through a water outlet pipe, wherein the non-condensable gas collecting device comprises a non-condensable gas collecting tank located at the upper part and an inlet and outlet water regulating tank located at the lower part, the condensable gas collecting tank is connected to the inlet and outlet water regulating tank through a connecting calibrated tube, and the inlet and outlet water regulating tank is provided with two water inlets and one water outlet, wherein the two water inlets are respectively connected to the liquid phase water inlet pipe and the gas phase water inlet pipe, and the one water outlet is connected to the water outlet pipe.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution, a pressure gauge and a thermometer A are provided on the steam-water separator.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution, the condensed gas collection tank and the inlet and outlet water regulating tank are both cylindrical tank bodies.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution, a liquid-phase water inlet three-way valve is provided on the liquid-phase water inlet pipe, a gas-phase water inlet three-way valve is provided on the gas-phase water inlet pipe, and a water outlet piston valve is provided on the water outlet pipe.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution, a liquid-phase water inlet external discharge pipe connected to the liquid-phase water inlet three-way valve and a gas-phase water inlet external discharge pipe connected to the gas-phase water inlet three-way valve are also provided.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution, an external protection frame is further provided on the outside of the condensed gas collection tank and the inlet and outlet water regulating tank.

[0012] The second object of the present invention is to provide a method for measuring non-condensable gas of high-temperature geothermal fluid using the above-mentioned device, and the technical solution adopted is as follows:

[0013] (1) Before measurement, turn the non-condensable gas collection device upside down, fill it with liquid from the outlet pipe connected to the inlet and outlet water regulating tank, open the two water inlets to exhaust the gas in the device, and then put the non-condensable gas collection device upright;

[0014] (2) Open the main valve, connect the liquid phase water inlet three-way valve and the gas phase water inlet three-way valve to the corresponding external drain pipes to drain water, and after the temperature and pressure of the steam-water separator are stable, connect the liquid phase water inlet three-way valve and the gas phase water inlet three-way valve to the inlet and outlet water regulating tanks, and connect the condensed liquid, water vapor and non-condensable gas to the non-condensable gas collection device;

[0015] The non-condensable gas is collected at the top of the non-condensable gas collection tank, and the liquid is discharged into the water collection tank from the bottom of the inlet and outlet water regulating tank;

[0016] The water level in the water collecting tank is consistent with the middle scale height of the connected scale tube, and the outlet pipe is immersed below the water surface of the water collecting tank before the measurement is completed;

[0017] After the gas-water interface reaches the connecting graduated tube (the graduated tube is used to measure the volume of the gas in the non-condensable gas collection tank, and the amount is read by the scale, and the specific range of the scale is 7480mL~7550mL), close the liquid phase water inlet three-way valve and the gas phase water inlet three-way valve at the same time, and make the three-way valve drain water laterally; after the gas and liquid in the non-condensable gas collection device are completely separated and the liquid level in the connecting graduated tube is stable, close the water outlet piston valve; finally, close the main valve;

[0018] (4) After closing the outlet piston valve, collect the liquid in the outlet pipe into the water collecting tank;

[0019] (5) Record data: Simultaneously record the temperature of the non-condensable gas collection tank (T) and the scale on the connected scale tube (V 气 ); use an electronic scale to measure the weight of the discharged liquid (V 水 ) (i.e., the weight of the liquid in the sump); and record the atmospheric pressure (P);

[0020] (6) Data analysis: Based on the composition and volume of the non-condensable gas, the average molecular weight of the gas with a volume ratio exceeding 1% is calculated, and the mass ratio of the non-condensable gas in the geothermal fluid is further calculated.

[0021] As a preferred technical solution, in step (6), the data analysis includes:

[0022] 1) Laboratory analysis of non-condensable gas components, calculation of the average molecular weight of the gas, only the gas with a volume fraction exceeding 1% is calculated;

[0023] The specific analysis method is to use a gas chromatograph in the laboratory, instrument model: PE.Clarus600, determination method: GB / T 13610 Natural gas component analysis gas chromatography method;

[0024] It should be noted that the reason why only gases with a volume fraction of more than 1% are calculated is that the effect of gases with a volume fraction of less than 1% on the calculated gas average molecular weight is less than 0.01, and has no significant effect on the measurement accuracy.

[0025] The calculated average molecular weight (M ra ) is:

[0026]

[0027] Among them, M i is the molecular weight of the i-th gas, V i is the volume ratio of the i-th gas.

[0028] 2) Calculate the mass of non-condensable gas according to the ideal gas state equation. The calculation formula is:

[0029] M 气 =M ra P 气 V 气 / (RT) (2)

[0030] Where M 气 Represents the mass of non-condensable gas, in kg;

[0031] M ra Represents the average molecular weight of non-condensable gas;

[0032] P 气 Represents the atmospheric pressure measured on site, in Pa;

[0033] V 气 Represents the volume of non-condensable gas measured on site, in m 3 ;

[0034] R represents the proportionality constant, 8.314 J / (mol·K);

[0035] T represents the temperature of the non-condensable gas storage tank measured on site, in K;

[0036] According to the non-condensable gas mass and liquid weight (V 水 ), calculate the mass ratio of non-condensable gas in the liquid phase (n l ), the calculation formula is:

[0037] n l =M 气 / ( M 气 +V 水 ) (3).

[0038] The measuring device of the present invention separates, cools and compresses the geothermal fluid, and then enters the non-condensable gas collection device, converts the collected non-condensable gas into gas mass, measures the mass of the drainage in the water collecting tank, and calculates the mass ratio of the non-condensable gas.

[0039] The device and method provided by the present invention for measuring non-condensable gas in high-temperature geothermal fluids measure the weight ratio of non-condensable gas, which is of great significance for the design of high-temperature geothermal units, the research work on scale prevention and inhibition of geothermal wells, and the injection amount and injection position of scale inhibitors.

[0040] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are: the non-condensable gas measurement device and method of the present invention can obtain accurate and reliable non-condensable gas mass concentration data in the fluid, and is suitable for the fields of single well productivity testing, geothermal resource assessment, geothermal field production monitoring, etc. of high-temperature geothermal fields.

[0060] Example 2

[0061] The method for measuring non-condensable gas of high-temperature geothermal fluid using the device of Example 1 comprises the following steps:

[0062] (1) Before measurement, the non-condensable gas collection device 9 is inverted, and liquid is poured into the water outlet pipe 20 located in the middle of the inlet and outlet water regulating tank 12. The two water inlet three-way valves 15 for the liquid phase and 16 for the gas phase are opened to exhaust gas, and the gas in the device is completely exhausted;

[0067] (6) After the gas-water interface reaches the connecting graduated tube 11, close the liquid phase water inlet three-way valve 15 and the gas phase water inlet three-way valve 16 at the same time, so that the two three-way valves can drain water laterally; after the gas and liquid in the non-condensable gas collection device 9 are stable and the liquid level in the connecting tube 11 is stable, close the water outlet piston valve 19; finally, close the main valve 1;

[0071] (1) The non-condensable gas collection device 9 is preferably filled with water that is cooled from the geothermal well, so as to avoid scaling caused by contact between waters of different water chemical components;

[0072] (2) After the steam-water separator 2 runs stably, the non-condensable gas collecting device 9 is fed with water again, and the valve opening sequence is: first open the water outlet piston valve 19, and then simultaneously open the liquid phase water inlet three-way valve 15 and the gas phase water inlet three-way valve 16; when the measurement is finished, the valve closing sequence is: simultaneously close the liquid phase water inlet three-way valve 15 and the gas phase water inlet three-way valve 16, and then close the water outlet piston valve 19 after the gas-liquid interface of the connected calibration tube 11 is stable;

According to laboratory analysis, the gas with a volume ratio exceeding 1% is CO 2 、N 2 and O 2 , whose volume ratios are 0.752, 0.165, and 0.0533, respectively. The average molecular weight (M) is calculated by the above formula (1): ra ) is 40.82;

[0081] (2) Calculate the mass of non-condensable gas based on the ideal gas state equation

[0082] M 气 =M ra P 气 V 气 / (RT) (2)

[0083] According to the mass of carbon dioxide and the weight of liquid (V 水 ), calculate the mass ratio of non-condensable gas in the liquid phase (n l );

[0084] n l =M co2 / (M co2 +V 水 ) (3)
