The character " / " in the cold storage / release module table indicates that the module can realize the function of storing or releasing cold energy.
[0061] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG1 , the present application provides an energy island system 100 , including a power generation module 101 , a heat exchange module 103 , a compression expansion module 105 , a cold storage / release module 109 , and a heat storage / release module 107 ;
[0062] The power generation module 101 is used to generate electricity using the temperature difference of seawater;
[0063] The compression and expansion module 105 is electrically connected to the power generation module 101 and is connected to the heat exchange module 103 through a pipeline, and is used to compress and / or expand the heat exchange cycle working medium; wherein the heat exchange cycle working medium is used to circulate in the pipelines of the compression and expansion module 105 and the power generation module 101;
[0064] The heat exchange module 103 is connected to the power generation module 101, the cold storage / release module 109 and the heat storage / release module 107 through pipelines; wherein the cold storage / release module 109 is used to store excess power generation in the form of cold energy during the off-peak period of electricity consumption, and release cold energy during the peak period of electricity consumption; the cold storage / release module 109 is used to store excess power generation in the form of heat energy during the off-peak period of electricity consumption, and release heat energy during the peak period of electricity consumption.
[0065] Among them, seawater temperature difference energy generation is to generate electricity by using the temperature difference between the surface and deep seawater of the ocean. It can be understood that the shallow seawater in the ocean has a higher temperature because it is directly exposed to solar radiation, while the deep seawater has a lower temperature because it is far away from the influence of solar radiation. Based on the above temperature difference, electrical energy can be generated through the thermodynamic cycle of the corresponding working fluid. Exemplarily, the power generation module 101 can generate electricity by using the temperature difference of seawater based on an open circulation system, a closed circulation system, or a hybrid circulation system. It should be understood that during the period of low electricity consumption, the power generation module 101 will generate some excess power in addition to meeting the power supply required by the user. This excess power generation can be used to drive the compression and expansion module 105 to perform work and store energy.
[0066] The compression and expansion module 105 is connected to the heat exchange module 103 through a pipeline, and is used to compress and / or expand the heat exchange cycle working fluid circulating in the pipeline. It can be understood that the compression and expansion module 105 can compress the gas to a smaller volume by doing work, and at the same time increase the internal energy of the heat exchange cycle working fluid gas molecules in the compression and expansion module 105, thereby increasing the temperature of the heat exchange cycle working fluid. On the other hand, when the heat exchange cycle working fluid is expanded through the compression and expansion module 105, work is done on the outside, resulting in a decrease in the internal energy of the heat exchange cycle working fluid and a decrease in its temperature. The temperature of the heat exchange cycle working fluid in the pipeline can be adjusted by the compression and / or expansion operation of the heat exchange cycle working fluid by the compression and expansion module 105. Exemplarily, during periods of low electricity consumption, the excess electricity generated by the power generation module 101 can drive the compression and expansion module 105 to compress and heat up the heat exchange cycle working fluid and / or expand and cool it, thereby converting the excess electricity into internal energy (cold energy / heat energy) in the heat exchange cycle working fluid, so as to further store the excess electricity through the cold storage / release module 109 and the heat storage / release module 107; during periods of peak electricity consumption, the cold energy and / or heat energy in the cold storage / release module 109 and the heat storage / release module 107 can be transferred to the heat exchange cycle working fluid through heat exchange, and the heat exchange cycle working fluid can do work externally when it expands, so as to drive the engine to generate electricity.
[0067] The heat exchange module 103 is respectively connected to the power generation module 101, the compression expansion module 105, the cold storage / release module 109 and the heat storage / release module 107 through pipelines. It can be understood that the heat exchange process between the heat exchange module 103 and the power generation module 101, the compression expansion module 105, the cold storage / release module 109 and the heat storage / release module 107 can be performed based on different heat exchange media in different modules. Exemplarily, the cold storage / release module 109 may include a cold storage medium for performing heat exchange with the heat exchange circulation medium, and the cold storage medium may be used to store the excess power generation of the power generation module 101 in the form of cold energy; the heat storage / release module 107 may include a heat storage medium for performing heat exchange with the heat exchange circulation medium, and the heat storage medium may be used to store the excess power generation of the power generation module 101 in the form of cold and hot energy; the power generation module 101 may include a power generation circulation medium for performing seawater temperature difference power generation, and the power generation circulation medium may also be used to perform heat exchange with the heat exchange circulation medium to heat up or cool down the power generation circulation medium through the heat exchange process.
[0068] Specifically, the power generation module 101 uses the temperature difference between warm shallow seawater and deep cold seawater to generate seawater temperature difference power. In the peak period of electricity consumption, the power generation module 101 can generate excess power, which can be used to drive the compression and expansion module 105 to compress and / or expand the heat exchange cycle working fluid in the pipeline, so as to convert the excess power generation of the power generation module 101 into internal energy (cold energy / heat energy) in the heat exchange cycle working fluid through the compression and expansion module 105; and then the internal energy in the heat exchange cycle working fluid is transferred to the cold storage / release module 109 for storage through the heat exchange cycle working fluid and the cold storage working fluid, and / or, the internal energy in the heat exchange cycle working fluid is transferred to the heat storage / release module 107 for storage through the heat exchange cycle working fluid and the heat storage working fluid, so as to realize the storage of the excess power generation of the power generation module 101 in the form of internal energy of the heat exchange working fluid in the cold storage / release module 109 and / or the heat storage / release module 107.
[0069] During peak electricity consumption periods, the cold storage / release module 109 can transfer the cold energy in the cold storage / release module 109 to the heat exchange circulation working fluid by heat exchange between the heat exchange circulation working fluid and the cold storage working fluid, and / or the heat storage / release module 107 can transfer the heat energy in the heat storage / release module 107 to the heat exchange circulation working fluid by heat exchange between the heat exchange circulation working fluid and the heat storage working fluid, thereby adjusting the temperature of the heat exchange circulation working fluid, so that the heat exchange circulation working fluid can be compressed and expanded based on the released cold energy and / or heat energy, so as to ultimately drive the engine to generate electricity.
[0070] Furthermore, during peak electricity consumption periods, the heat exchange circulating medium can also be used to heat the power generation circulating medium in the power generation module 101 through heat exchange, so as to promote the seawater temperature difference power generation process of the power generation module 101.
