Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of heat exchange equipment, and in particular to a heat exchange device and a steam generating system. Background Art

[0002] With the transformation of the global energy structure and the improvement of environmental protection requirements, the oilfield exploitation field is facing unprecedented challenges and opportunities. In response to this, the electric thermal molten salt energy storage steam injection test station was born, marking an important breakthrough in the application of electric thermal molten salt energy storage technology in the oilfield exploitation field.

[0003] The test station innovatively uses valley electricity from the power grid to heat molten salt, efficiently converting electrical energy into thermal energy and storing it in liquid molten salt. Subsequently, a large amount of steam is generated through the continuous heat exchange process between high-temperature molten salt and softened water, providing a stable steam supply for the surrounding heavy oil thermal recovery wells. According to statistics, the test station has an energy storage scale of 15 megawatts and an annual steam production of up to 48,000 tons, which can replace 3.13 million cubic meters of natural gas and significantly reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 6,768 tons. This achievement not only provides strong support for carbon emission reduction in old oil fields during heavy oil thermal recovery, but also lays a solid foundation for the comprehensive promotion and application of electric thermal molten salt energy storage technology.

[0004] The test station has made remarkable achievements in technology and environmental protection, but some problems have also been exposed during actual operation. The test station adopts an extraction steam preheating process, using the direct steam generated by the evaporator to return to the preheating evaporator to preheat the produced water. This design effectively prevents the solidification of molten salt caused by direct contact between low-temperature produced water and molten salt, but it also brings about the problem of overload design. Specifically, the design amount of molten salt and steam exceeds the actual steam injection demand. With the further expansion of the energy storage scale, the size of the molten salt storage tank and the steam generating device will increase sharply to adapt to the system pressure, which not only increases the manufacturing cost, but also reduces the economy and practicality of the system.

[0031] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of the present invention, the scheme of the present invention will be further described below. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0032] The following description sets forth many specific details to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention, but the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the implementation methods in the specification are only part of the implementation methods of the present invention, rather than all of the implementation methods.

[0033] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the heat exchange device provided in the embodiment of the present invention includes a tank body 1, a first heat exchange component 2 and a second heat exchange component 3.

[0034] A heat exchange cavity 11 is formed inside the tank body 1, and a medium inlet and a medium outlet are provided on the tank body 1, which are connected to the heat exchange cavity 11. The medium can enter the heat exchange cavity 11 through the medium inlet, and then flow out through the medium outlet. At this time, the medium goes through the shell side, wherein the medium here can be molten salt, that is, the molten salt goes through the shell side of the tank body 1, avoiding the blockage of the pipeline caused by the pipe side, and ensuring the use effect of the tank body 1.

[0035] The first heat exchange component 2 is arranged in the heat exchange cavity 11, and a fluid channel is formed in the first heat exchange component 2, wherein the fluid channel is bent and extended in a folded shape to increase the flow path of the fluid and ensure the heat exchange effect. The first heat exchange component 2 is provided with a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet connected to the fluid channel. The fluid can enter the fluid channel through the fluid inlet and then flow out through the fluid outlet so that the fluid runs through the pipe circuit. Among them, the fluid here can be processed produced water, that is, the produced water runs through the pipe circuit in the heat exchange device. The fluid in the fluid channel exchanges heat with the medium in the heat exchange cavity 11.

[0036] The second heat exchange component 3 is arranged on the inner wall of the tank body 1. The arrangement of the second heat exchange component 3 is not limited and can be welding or the like. The second heat exchange component 3 is provided with a spoiler 31, wherein the spoiler 31 is arranged on the side of the axis of the second heat exchange component 3 facing the tank body 1, so that the medium flowing through the heat exchange cavity 11 can contact the spoiler 31. The medium flowing into the heat exchange cavity 11 can change the flow path under the action of the spoiler 31 to increase the turbulent flow trend of the medium and increase the shell-side convective heat transfer coefficient, thereby greatly reducing the equipment size of the heat exchange device by changing the structural form without affecting the shutdown and salt discharge of the heat exchange device. Among them, a gas channel 32 is formed inside the second heat exchange component 3, and a gas inlet and a gas outlet connected to the gas channel 32 are provided on the second heat exchange component 3. The gas can enter the gas channel 32 through the gas inlet, and then flow to the target position through the gas outlet to provide high-temperature gas to the target. The gas in the gas channel 32 exchanges heat with the medium in the heat exchange cavity 11.

[0037] Based on the heat exchange device provided by the present invention, high-temperature hot air is formed by passing compressed gas into the second heat exchange component 3 to exchange heat with the high-temperature medium in the heat exchange cavity 11, and then the high-temperature hot air enters the subsequent preheating section heat exchanger for heat exchange, thereby effectively reducing the shell side pressure in the preheating section heat exchanger, so that the shell side diameter can be enlarged and the wall thickness can be reduced, thereby reducing costs and reducing the safety risks of the equipment. A spoiler 31 is provided on the second heat exchange component 3, which can play a spoiler role on the flowing medium, improve the turbulent trend of the medium, and increase the shell side convective heat transfer coefficient. Therefore, under the premise of not affecting the shutdown and salt discharge of the tank body 1, the size of the tank body 1 itself can be greatly reduced by changing the structural form, thereby reducing the overall equipment size, reducing the floor area, improving the economy and practicality of the overall equipment, and being able to reduce energy consumption and emissions to meet the growing energy demand and environmental protection requirements in the field of oil field exploitation.

[0038] In some embodiments, the first heat exchange assembly 2 includes a first heat exchange pipe 21, which is bent and extended to increase the flow path of the fluid and ensure the heat exchange effect of the fluid. The fluid inlet and the fluid outlet are located at both ends of the first heat exchange pipe 21, and the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet are both arranged on the tank body 1.

[0039] The first heat exchange component 2 in this design can ensure the heat exchange effect of the fluid, and the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet are both arranged on the tank body 1, which facilitates the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet to be connected with the external pipeline.

[0040] In some embodiments, the first heat exchange pipe 21 includes at least two pipe bodies 211 extending in parallel, and the two ends of the plurality of pipe bodies 211 are respectively connected through an inlet pipe box 212 and an outlet pipe box 213, and the fluid inlet is arranged on the inlet pipe box 212, and the fluid outlet is arranged on the outlet pipe box 213. Specifically, the pipe pass of a single serpentine coil of the first heat exchange pipe 21 is divided into two, and two or more pipe passes are changed to parallel according to the pressure drop requirement, and the inlet and outlet of the pipe body 211 are merged through the inlet pipe box 212 and the outlet pipe box 213 to facilitate the transmission of the fluid. Among them, the pipe body 211 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the adjacent pipe body 211, so that the plurality of pipe bodies 211 extend in parallel.

[0041] This multi-pass parallel design will significantly reduce the system pressure drop, improve the system operation stability and reduce the failure rate while ensuring the uniformity of heat exchange inside the heat exchange device.

[0042] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the second heat exchange assembly 3 includes a plurality of C-shaped tubes 33 arranged on the inner wall of the tank body 1, and the plurality of C-shaped tubes 33 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the tank body 1, and the ends of two adjacent C-shaped tubes 33 are connected by a bend pipe, so that the gas channel 32 formed by the plurality of C-shaped tubes 33 is bent and extended. Among them, the C-shaped tube 33 is a semicircular seamless steel tube, and is buckled on the inner wall of the tank body 1, so that a jacket structure is formed between the C-shaped tube 33 and the inner wall of the tank body 1 for gas circulation. After the compressed gas circulating in the C-shaped tube 33 exchanges heat with the high-temperature medium in the heat exchange cavity 11, the high-temperature hot air is transported to the subsequent equipment, specifically, it can be transported to the subsequent preheating heat exchanger 41, and exchanges heat with the produced water heated by solar energy.

[0043] In some embodiments, the spoiler 31 includes a plurality of fins 311 evenly distributed on a plurality of C-shaped tubes 33 , and the plurality of fins 311 on each C-shaped tube 33 are spaced apart along the extension direction of the C-shaped tube 33 , that is, a plurality of fins 311 are wrapped around the outer circumference of each C-shaped tube 33 .

[0044] In this design, a plurality of fins 311 are provided on the outer periphery of the C-shaped tube 33, which can change the flow state of the medium in the shell side, and change the smooth inner wall of the tank body 1 into a flow channel with ups and downs and full of fins 311, thereby increasing the turbulent flow trend of the medium and increasing the shell side convective heat transfer coefficient, thereby greatly reducing the equipment size of the heat exchange device by changing the structural form without affecting the shutdown and salt discharge of the heat exchange device. It is estimated that this modification will save about 10% of the heat exchange area of ​​the equipment.

[0045] In some embodiments, the C-shaped tube 33 extends along the axial direction of the tank body 1. The C-shaped tube 33 in this design is easy to arrange and can ensure the delivery effect of compressed gas. It is understandable that the C-shaped tube 33 can also be extended at an angle according to needs, which is not restrictive.

[0046] In some embodiments, the fins 311 extend along the radial direction of the tank body 1. This design facilitates the processing of the fins 311 and ensures the turbulence effect of the medium. It is understandable that the fins 311 can also be tilted on the C-shaped tube 33 according to needs, which is not restrictive.

[0047] In some embodiments, the medium inlet is disposed at the top of the tank body 1 , and the medium outlet is disposed at the bottom of the tank body 1 .

[0048] In this design, the medium transported through the medium inlet flows into the heat exchange cavity 11 from top to bottom, and flows out through the medium outlet at the bottom of the tank body 1 under the action of pressure and gravity, thereby ensuring the medium transport effect.

[0049] Combination Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the present invention further provides a steam generation system, which includes a heat exchange device 4, a medium conveying device 5 and a fluid conveying device 6.

[0050] The heat exchange device 4 includes a preheating heat exchanger 41, a heating heat exchanger 42 and an evaporating heat exchanger 43, wherein the heating heat exchanger 42 and / or the evaporating heat exchanger 43 adopt the above-mentioned heat exchange device, and the heat exchange device here includes all the technical features of the above-mentioned heat exchange device. Preferably, both the heating heat exchanger 42 and the evaporating heat exchanger 43 adopt the above-mentioned heat exchange device.

[0051] The medium conveying device 5 includes a medium conveying device 51 and a medium recovery device 52. The medium conveyed by the medium conveying device 51 flows through the shell side of the evaporation heat exchanger 43 and the heating heat exchanger 42 in sequence and flows back to the medium recovery device 52. Among them, the medium conveyed by the medium conveying device 5 is molten salt, the medium conveying device 51 is a high-temperature molten salt storage tank 511, and the medium recovery device 52 is a low-temperature molten salt storage tank 521. The high-temperature molten salt storage tank 511 is used to store high-temperature molten salt, and the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 521 is used to store low-temperature molten salt. The high temperature and low temperature in this application are relative, that is, the molten salt temperature in the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 511 is higher than the molten salt temperature in the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 521.

[0052] The fluid conveying device 6 includes a fluid conveying device 61. The fluid conveyed by the fluid conveying device 61 flows through the tubes of the preheating heat exchanger 41, the heating heat exchanger 42 and the evaporating heat exchanger 43 in sequence and flows out through the fluid outlet of the evaporating heat exchanger 43. The fluid conveyed by the fluid conveying device 61 is produced water.

[0053] The gas outlet of the heating heat exchanger 42 and / or the evaporating heat exchanger 43 is communicated with the gas inlet of the preheating heat exchanger 41 , and the gas outlet of the preheating heat exchanger 41 is communicated with the gas inlet of the heating heat exchanger 42 and / or the evaporating heat exchanger 43 .

[0054] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, the molten salt outlet of the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 511 is connected to the medium inlet pipeline of the evaporation heat exchanger 43, so that the high-temperature molten salt in the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 511 can flow into the heat exchange cavity 11 of the evaporation heat exchanger 43. The medium outlet of the evaporation heat exchanger 43 is connected to the medium inlet of the heating heat exchanger 42, so that the medium of the evaporation heat exchanger 43 can flow into the heat exchange cavity 11 of the heating heat exchanger 42. The medium outlet of the heating evaporator is connected to the molten salt inlet of the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 521, so that the low-temperature molten salt after heat exchange can flow into the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 521. The low-temperature molten salt storage tank 521 is connected to the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 511 through a circulation pipeline, and the following salt tank 9 is provided on the circulation pipeline. The low-temperature molten salt in the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 521 flows to the salt tank 9 for heating, and then flows to the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 511 to realize the circulation and transportation of the molten salt. A circulation pump is also provided on the circulation pipeline to provide power for the circulation of molten salt.

[0055] The produced water outlet of the fluid conveying device 61 is connected to the produced water inlet of the preheating heat exchanger 41, so that the produced water conveyed by the fluid conveying device 61 enters the pipe side of the preheating heat exchanger 41. The produced water outlet of the preheating heat exchanger 41 is connected to the fluid inlet of the heating heat exchanger 42, so that the produced water in the preheating heat exchanger 41 flows into the fluid channel of the preheating heat exchanger 41, and the produced water in the fluid channel of the heating heat exchanger 42 exchanges heat with the molten salt in the heat exchange cavity 11 of the preheating heat exchanger 41. The fluid after heat exchange flows out through the fluid outlet of the heating heat exchanger 42 and enters the fluid channel of the evaporating heat exchanger 43, and the produced water in the fluid channel of the evaporating heat exchanger 43 exchanges heat with the molten salt in the heat exchange cavity 11 of the evaporating heat exchanger 43. The steam obtained by heat exchange flows to the target through the fluid outlet of the evaporating heat exchanger 43, which can be specifically to the steam injection well.

[0056] In addition, compressed gas is introduced into the gas channel 32 in the heating heat exchanger 42 and the evaporation heat exchanger 43. The compressed gas in the gas channel 32 exchanges heat with the molten salt in the heat exchange cavity 11 in the heating heat exchanger 42 and the evaporation heat exchanger 43, and then flows into the tube side of the preheating heat exchanger 41 through the gas outlet to preheat the produced water in the tube side of the preheating heat exchanger 41 through the high-temperature gas. The cooled gas flows back to the gas channel 32 in the heating heat exchanger 42 and the evaporation heat exchanger 43, wherein the circulating flow of the gas can be powered by the pump body.

[0057] Based on the steam generation system provided by the present invention, since the heat medium used for preheating produced water is replaced by hot air from high-pressure wet steam, the shell pressure of the preheating heat exchanger 41 is greatly reduced, the shell diameter can be enlarged, and the wall thickness can be reduced. Therefore, the design method of using hot air in the shell and high-pressure produced water in the tube can effectively reduce the manufacturing cost of the preheating heat exchanger 41 and increase the service life of the preheating heat exchanger 41. At the same time, the heat load of the entire system is reduced. This change not only reduces the size of the equipment (including the medium conveying device 51, the medium recovery device 52, the preheating heat exchanger 41, the heating heat exchanger 42 and the evaporation heat exchanger 43), but also saves equipment materials and molten salt, thereby not only reducing the equipment cost, but also reducing the energy consumption of the system.

[0058] In some embodiments, the ratio of the diameter to the height of the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 511 is greater than 1.2.

[0059] In this design, since the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 511 is used to store molten salt and the density of the molten salt is relatively large, the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 511 adopts a flat design, which can ensure the storage effect of the molten salt and the use effect of the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 511.

[0060] In some embodiments, the ratio of the diameter to the height of the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 521 is greater than 1.2.

[0061] In this design, since the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 521 is used to store molten salt and the density of the molten salt is relatively large, the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 521 adopts a flat design, which can ensure the storage effect of the molten salt and the use effect of the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 521.

[0062] A salt tank 9 for heating the molten salt is provided on the circulation pipeline of the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 511 and the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 521. Under this design mode, the salt tank 9 can be used for melting and heating the solid molten salt in the initial state. During the operation of the system, the low-temperature molten salt in the low-temperature molten salt storage tank 521 is heated by the salt tank 9 to obtain high-temperature molten salt, and then enters the high-temperature molten salt storage tank 511. The high-temperature molten salt is used as a subsequent heat exchange medium to meet the recycling needs of the molten salt. Among them, a heating rod for heating the molten salt is provided inside the salt tank 9. The salt tank 9 is a conventional technology in this field, and its structure and working principle are not described in detail here.

[0063] In some embodiments, the diameters of the tubes of the preheating heat exchanger 41, the heating heat exchanger 42, and the evaporating heat exchanger 43 are greater than dn65.

[0064] Under this design, since the oilfield produced water contains relatively more impurities (impurities still exist after treatment), in order to avoid pipeline blockage, the diameter of the pipes of the preheating heat exchanger 41, the heating heat exchanger 42 and the evaporating heat exchanger 43 is set to be larger than dn65 to meet the transportation requirements of the produced water.

[0065] In some embodiments, in combination Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the shell sides of the preheating heat exchanger 41 , the heating heat exchanger 42 and the evaporating heat exchanger 43 are connected in series, and the preheating heat exchanger 41 , the heating heat exchanger 42 and the evaporating heat exchanger 43 are supported by a bracket 7 .

[0066] This design simplifies the manufacturing process, reduces the equipment footprint, and improves the system integration. At the same time, the reduction of the shell side medium pressure also reduces the safety risk of the equipment.

[0067] In some embodiments, continue to refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The preheating heat exchanger 41 , the heating heat exchanger 42 and the evaporating heat exchanger 43 are arranged in a triangle on the bracket 7 .

[0068] This design can further reduce the space occupied by the equipment and make the structure of the bracket 7 more stable.
