Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of geothermal exploitation, and in particular relates to a deep and shallow thermal reservoir production interference simulation experimental system and an experimental method. Background Art

[0002] The development and utilization of geothermal energy is considered to be one of the most effective means to mitigate extreme climate phenomena. my country has abundant geothermal energy distributed from shallow to deep on land. At present, the development and utilization of geothermal energy in China is mainly based on the direct utilization of shallow geothermal energy, and the development and utilization of deep geothermal energy and hot dry rocks are also emerging. With the increasing demand and utilization of new energy, especially geothermal energy, in social development, how to mine these geothermal energies efficiently, sustainably and in an environmentally friendly way is the primary problem currently faced.

[0003] Although the development and utilization of geothermal resources in China has been relatively mature, people often only evaluate and develop deep heat reservoirs or shallow heat reservoirs independently, and rarely conduct in-depth research on the heat and mass transfer phenomena between shallow heat reservoirs and deep heat reservoirs in the same geothermal system. Some traditional views believe that the deep heat reservoir system and the shallow heat reservoir system are isolated from each other. However, some field pumping tests and geochemical analyses have shown that there is hydraulic connectivity between deep heat reservoirs and shallow heat reservoirs (such as a geothermal field in northern Beijing), and they may have the same recharge area; deep heat reservoirs provide upward flow channels and groundwater recharge channels for deep fluids through fault zones in tectonic active areas, and the degree of influence of deep heat reservoirs on shallow heat reservoirs is also significantly related to geological structures. In terms of energy supply, the energy of shallow heat reservoirs comes partly from solar radiation and partly from heat conduction in deep reservoirs. The degree of mutual influence between these deep and shallow heat reservoirs is often underestimated. Therefore, in the process of geothermal energy development, whether the development and utilization of deep geothermal resources will cause the depletion of shallow geothermal resources, whether the development and utilization of shallow geothermal resources will affect the sustainable supply of deep geothermal resources, and how shallow geothermal heating areas can use medium and deep heat to supplement shallow heat to solve the problem of thermal imbalance are issues waiting to be confirmed, which will affect the sustainable development of human society to a certain extent.

[0004] There are rich deep and shallow geothermal resources in some areas of China, such as the northern part of Beijing and Xiong'an New Area. Among them, in recent years, many areas have carried out comprehensive application projects of deep and shallow geothermal energy (such as the main building of the Beijing World Horticultural Exposition, Zhengzhou Kunpeng Software Town Fengxi New City, etc.). Therefore, recognizing the heat and mass transfer mechanism between deep and shallow heat reservoirs is of great significance for guiding the efficient development and utilization of geothermal energy. However, there is a lack of relevant research and experimental means. A new experimental method is needed to reveal the nature of production interference between deep and shallow heat reservoirs, and provide guidance for subsequent regulatory measures. Summary of the invention

[0063] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0064] Example 1

[0065] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a deep and shallow thermal reservoir production interference simulation experimental system includes a reservoir simulation system, an injection and production system, a heating system and a temperature monitoring system.

[0066] The reservoir simulation system includes a high-pressure sealed shell 101, a shallow simulation model 102, a barrier simulation model 103 and a deep simulation model 104 arranged in sequence from top to bottom in the high-pressure sealed shell 101, and a fracture simulation model 105 vertically arranged in the high-pressure sealed shell 101, the fracture simulation model 105 includes a permeable fissure 1051 connected to the shallow simulation model 102 and the deep simulation model 104 at the upper and lower ends respectively, and the shallow simulation model 102 and the deep simulation model 104 are both made of permeable materials.

[0067] The interlayer simulation model 103 is isolated from the shallow layer simulation model 102, the deep layer simulation model 104 and the crack simulation model 105 respectively. Specifically, there is no penetration between the interlayer simulation model 103 and the shallow layer simulation model 102, the deep layer simulation model 104 and the crack simulation model 105. In order to further reduce the interference between the models, an insulation layer can be set between the interlayer simulation model 103 and the shallow layer simulation model 102, the deep layer simulation model 104 and the crack simulation model 105.

[0068] The shallow simulation model 102 and the deep simulation model 104 are respectively filled with sand particles. The shallow simulation model 102 is a cuboid with a length, width and height of L, W and H1 respectively. The deep simulation model 104 is a cuboid with a length, width and height of L, W and H3 respectively.

[0069] The interlayer simulation model 103 is filled with an impermeable material, and the impermeable material is specifically a cement concrete material. In this embodiment, the crack simulation model 105 divides the inner cavity of the high-pressure sealed housing 101 into two parts, the left and right parts, and the interlayer simulation model 103 is a rectangular parallelepiped with length, width and height of L, Wa, H2 and L, Wb, H2 respectively located on both sides of the crack simulation model 105. Wa and Wb can be equal or unequal.

[0070] The deep layer simulation model 104 in the reservoir simulation system is placed at the bottom of the high pressure sealed housing 101, with the interlayer simulation model 103 arranged above it, and the shallow layer simulation model 102 arranged at the top. The fracture simulation model 105 penetrates the shallow layer simulation model 102, the interlayer simulation model 103, and the deep layer simulation model 104 from top to bottom.

[0071] In this embodiment, the high-pressure sealed shell 101 is made of high-pressure steel, and its internal length, width and height are L, W and H respectively. Its bottom and surroundings are welded together, and the top is a detachable steel cover, which is connected to the main body of the high-pressure sealed shell 101 by bolts.

[0072] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the deep and shallow thermal reservoir production interference simulation experimental system further includes an intermediate baffle 500 vertically arranged in the high-pressure sealing shell 101, and the fracture simulation model 105 is located in the intermediate baffle 500.

[0073] The middle baffle 500 includes a shallow permeation cavity 501, a non-permeation cavity 502 and a deep permeation cavity 503 which are sequentially connected from top to bottom.

[0074] A permeable grid-shaped baffle 600 is provided between the shallow permeation cavity 501 and the shallow simulation model 102 and between the deep permeation cavity 503 and the deep simulation model 104 .

[0075] The non-permeable cavity 502 corresponds to the barrier simulation model 103 , and a non-permeable baffle 700 is disposed between the non-permeable cavity 502 and the barrier simulation model 103 .

[0076] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the middle baffle 500 is a hollow cuboid structure with an opening upward, which is composed of a permeable grid-shaped left baffle 5001, a permeable grid-shaped right baffle 5002, an impermeable rear baffle 5003, an impermeable front baffle 5004, an impermeable baffle bottom 5005 and an impermeable slider 5006. The impermeable baffle bottom 5005 can be closed or open. Its height is equal to H1+H2+H3, its length is equal to L, and its width is equal to the distance between the permeable grid-shaped left baffle 5001 and the permeable grid-shaped right baffle 5002, which simulates the width of the permeable crack; the distance between the permeable grid-shaped left baffle 5001 and the permeable grid-shaped right baffle 5002 plus the widths Wa and Wb of the two cuboids of the interlayer simulation model 103, the sum of which is equal to the width W of the shallow simulation model 102.

[0077] The height of the non-permeable slider 5006 is equal to the height H2 of the barrier simulation model 103 , and its position in the entire reservoir simulation system is consistent with the position of the barrier simulation model 103 .

[0078] In this embodiment, the middle baffle 500 plays the role of supporting the shallow simulation model 102, the interlayer simulation model 103, and the deep simulation model 104, and its permeable grid-shaped left baffle 5001 and the permeable grid-shaped right baffle 5002 can prevent sand particles in the shallow simulation model 102 and the deep simulation model 104 from entering the gap between the permeable grid-shaped left baffle 5001 and the permeable grid-shaped right baffle 5002.

[0079] The fracture simulation model 105 is placed in the middle baffle 500 to simulate the fracture channel connecting the shallow simulation model 102 and the deep simulation model 104 .

[0080] like Figure 5 As shown, the fracture simulation model 105 further includes an impermeable fracture left baffle 1052 , an impermeable fracture right baffle 1053 , an impermeable fracture top baffle 1054 and an impermeable fracture bottom baffle 1055 .

[0081] The non-permeable fracture top baffle 1054 and the non-permeable fracture bottom baffle 1055 are spaced apart from each other, and the non-permeable fracture left baffle 1052 and the non-permeable fracture right baffle 1053 are spaced apart from each other.

[0082] The impermeable fracture left baffle 1052 , the impermeable fracture right baffle 1053 , the impermeable fracture top baffle 1054 and the impermeable fracture bottom baffle 1055 are spliced ​​together to form a permeable fracture 1051 .

[0083] Specifically, the sum of the height of the permeable fracture 1051 , the height of the impermeable fracture top baffle 1054 , and the height of the impermeable fracture bottom baffle 1055 is equal to the height of the middle baffle 500 .

[0084] The sum of the length of the permeable fracture 1051 , the length of the impermeable fracture rear baffle 5003 , and the length of the impermeable fracture front baffle 5004 is equal to the length of the intermediate baffle 500 .

[0085] The width of the permeable crack 1051, the width of the impermeable crack rear baffle 5003, the width of the impermeable crack front baffle 5004, the width of the impermeable crack top baffle 1054, and the width of the impermeable crack bottom baffle 1055 are all equal to the width of the gap between the permeable grid-like left baffle 5001 and the permeable grid-like right baffle 5002 in the middle baffle 500.

[0086] In this embodiment, the length of the non-permeable fracture rear baffle 5003 and the length of the non-permeable fracture front baffle 5004 are adjustable, and different lengths of the permeable fracture 1051 can be obtained by adjusting the lengths of the two, thereby achieving simulation of different fracture lengths.

[0087] The height of the non-permeable fracture top baffle 1054 and the height of the non-permeable fracture bottom baffle 1055 are adjustable. By adjusting the heights of the two, different heights of the permeable fractures 1051 can be obtained, thereby achieving simulation of different fracture heights.

[0088] By adjusting the distance between the permeable grid-shaped left baffle 5001 and the permeable grid-shaped right baffle 5002 in the middle baffle 500, simulation of different crack widths can be achieved.

[0089] In this embodiment, the height of the permeable crack 1051 is greater than the height of the non-permeable slider 5006, and exceeds the boundaries of the non-permeable slider 5006 at the top and bottom.

[0090] The injection and production system includes a simulated water injection wellbore 201 , a simulated water production wellbore 202 , a water injection control system connected to the simulated water injection wellbore 201 , and a water output control system connected to the simulated water production wellbore 202 .

[0091] The simulated water injection wellbore 201 is located in the shallow simulation model 102 , and the simulated water production wellbore 202 is located in the deep simulation model 104 .

[0092] Alternatively, the simulated water injection wellbore 201 is located in the deep simulation model 104 , and the simulated water production wellbore 202 is located in the shallow simulation model 102 .

[0093] Specifically, the water injection control system includes a water supply tank 203 , a water injection pump 204 and a flow meter 205 .

[0094] The water outlet control system includes a water collecting tank 206 and a throttling control valve 207 .

[0095] The water injection pump 204 and the flow meter 205 are arranged between the water supply tank 203 and the simulated water injection well 201, and the water supply tank 203, the water injection pump 204 and the simulated water injection well 201 are connected by pipelines. The water injection pump 204 is connected to the simulated water injection well 201 through a water injection pipeline, and the flow meter 205 is arranged on the water injection pipeline to measure the water injection amount.

[0096] The throttling control valve 207 is arranged between the water collecting tank 206 and the simulated water extraction well 202, and the water collecting tank 206 and the simulated water extraction well 202 are connected by a pipeline. The water collecting tank 206 is connected to the simulated water extraction well 202 through a water outlet pipeline, and the throttling control valve 207 is arranged on the water outlet pipeline to adjust and control the water output.

[0097] The simulated water injection wellbore 201 provides a flow channel for the injected water to enter the shallow simulation model 102 or the deep simulation model 104 .
