Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of thin-bed coal mining, and in particular relates to an in-situ fluidized mining device and method for thin-bed coal. Background Art
[0002] The in-situ development and utilization of thin-bed coal resources holds significant strategic value for improving comprehensive resource utilization and promoting the transition to clean energy. While thin-bed coal reserves are abundant, accounting for approximately 20% of recoverable coal reserves, mining these thin seams presents numerous challenges due to their limited thickness (generally less than 1.3 meters) and complex geological conditions (including faults and interbedded gangue).
[0003] Due to limited working space and the poor adaptability of mechanized equipment, tunnel excavation is difficult. Direct excavation of thin coal seams leads to an imbalance between mining efficiency and economic benefits. The yield per unit area of a thin coal seam is only one-third to one-half that of a medium-thick seam, while the cost per ton of coal is 30% to 50% higher. Furthermore, some mines "mine the thick and abandon the thin," resulting in resource utilization rates of less than 10% for thin seams.
[0004] For thin, difficult-to-mine coal seams, in-situ combustion gasification can be implemented to utilize low-grade and unmineable coal resources. However, while existing underground coal gasification technologies can achieve in-situ utilization of coal resources, they require complex drilling and gas collection systems, which are not only technically expensive and complex to operate, but also pose risks of leakage and explosion. Furthermore, these technologies face challenges in controlling the combustion rate and temperature of the coal seams, resulting in low thermal energy recovery efficiency. To fully utilize shallow, thin coal seams and realize in-situ utilization of coal resources, we propose an in-situ fluidized mining device and method for thin coal seams. Summary of the Invention

[0041] Reference Figures 1 to 5 The present invention discloses an in-situ fluidized mining device for thin-layer coal, comprising an annular heat pipe module 1, which comprises an annular heat pipe 1.3 and a temperature difference power generation component.

[0042] During use, the bottom end of the annular heat pipe 1.3 of the annular heat pipe module 1 is set in the in-situ combustion zone of the thin coal seam, and the top end of the annular heat pipe 1.3 is set on the surface; the top end of the annular heat pipe 1.3 is cooled by the surface cooling module 3; air is introduced into the in-situ combustion zone of the thin coal seam through the in-situ combustion module 4 to assist the coal seam combustion, and the degree of coal seam combustion can be controlled by changing the ventilation volume. The introduced air is heated to form high-temperature flue gas, which is passed from the annular heat pipe 1.3 to the cogeneration power generation module 2 for power generation. The exhaust gas of the cogeneration power generation module 2 is cooled by the surface cooling module 3 and then discharged; a temperature difference is generated between the inside and outside of the temperature difference power generation component to realize temperature difference power generation.

In addition, the device has a simple structure, is easy to assemble, and has a low cost of use.
[0043] The in-situ combustion module 4 is selected as an air pump.
[0044] As an optional embodiment, the thermoelectric power generation component includes a thermoelectric power generation chip set tube 1.2 and a cooling tube 1.4. The thermoelectric power generation chip set tube 1.2 is coaxially sleeved inside an annular heat pipe 1.3. An exhaust pipe 1.1 is provided inside the thermoelectric power generation chip set tube 1.2. Another thermoelectric power generation chip set tube 1.2 is sleeved and fixed outside one end of the annular heat pipe 1.3 located in the thin coal seam in-situ combustion zone. The thermoelectric power generation chip set tube 1.2 and the annular heat pipe 1.3 are arranged for heat exchange.
[0045] The cooling pipe 1.4 is sleeved on the outer side of one end of the annular heat pipe 1.3 located on the ground surface, and the annular heat pipe 1.3 and the cooling pipe 1.4 are arranged for heat exchange;
[0046] The cooling pipe 1.4 is provided for heat exchange with the surface cooling module 3;
[0047] The exhaust pipe 1.1 is provided with ribs.
[0048] As an optional embodiment, the thermoelectric power generation chipset tube 1.2 includes a pipeline, and a plurality of thermoelectric power generation chipsets are arranged along the height direction of the pipeline. The thermoelectric power generation chipset includes a plurality of thermoelectric power generation chips, and the thermoelectric power generation chips are embedded in the pipeline.
[0049] As an optional embodiment, spiral stripes are provided on one side of the thermoelectric power generation chip located in the annular heat pipe 1.3. A copper sheet and ribs are connected to one side of the thermoelectric power generation chip located at the top of the annular heat pipe 1.3. The side of the thermoelectric power generation chip located at the top of the annular heat pipe 1.3 is heat-exchanged with the cooling pipe 1.4 via the copper sheet and ribs.
[0050] The cooling pipe 1.4 is arranged to exchange heat with the ground cooling module 3 through the coil 1.
[0051] Adding ribs to the high-temperature flue gas in the middle of the exhaust pipe 1.1 can be used to increase the heat exchange area and increase the heat exchange capacity; adding spiral grooves to the cold end side of the annular heat pipe module can cause the condensate to generate additional surface tension to increase its heat exchange capacity.
[0052] This device consists of an annular heat pipe module 1, a cogeneration power generation module 2, a surface cooling module 3, and an in-situ combustion module 4. The device is primarily based on a circulating power generation system. The annular heat pipe module 1 obtains heat through underground heat transfer pipes to achieve heat transfer. The annular heat pipe module 1 comprises an exhaust pipe 1.1, a thermoelectric power generation chip array pipe 1.2, annular heat pipes 1.3, and cooling pipes 1.4. The annular heat pipe module 1 exchanges heat with the coal fire in the combustion zone through the annular heat pipes 1.3, achieving heat transfer.
[0053] As an optional embodiment, the gas outlet of the cogeneration power generation module 2 is connected to one end of the coil 2, the coil 2 is heat exchanged with the surface cooling module 3, and the gas outlet of the coil 2 is connected to the atmosphere.
[0054] As an optional implementation, the coil 1 and the surface cooling module 3 are both filled with cooling medium.
[0055] As an optional implementation, the cooling medium is water.
[0056] The outer wall of the thermoelectric power generation chip group tube 1.2 is in direct contact with the heat source, and ribs are provided in the cold source to increase the heat exchange efficiency. The cold source is tightly connected to the thermoelectric power generation chip group tube 1.2 through copper sheets and ribs, and an electromotive force is generated by utilizing the temperature difference on both sides.
[0057] A cavity for the movement of a working medium is provided in the annular heat pipe 1.3. The working medium in the annular heat pipe 1.3 is preferably water.
[0058] The working fluid in the annular heat pipe 1.3 absorbs heat in the combustion zone, vaporizes, and returns to the surface. After being cooled by the cooling pipe at the cooling end of the annular heat pipe, it forms a cycle and falls back into the combustion zone. The working fluid in the cooling pipe is cooled by the surface cooling module and then circulates back to the cooling pipe, thereby integrating the annular heat pipe 1.3, the thermoelectric chipset tube 1.2, the exhaust pipe 1.1, and the cooling pipe 1.4 into a modular unit to achieve continuous and stable power generation.
[0059] The cogeneration power generation module 2 uses the flue gas generated by combustion in the combustion zone to drive the steam turbine to generate electricity and improve energy utilization efficiency. The specific working process is: the system adjusts the underground coal combustion intensity by supplying oxygen to the underground coal combustion zone through the in-situ combustion module 4 to ensure that the temperature difference power generation chip group tube 1.2 is at the optimal operating temperature difference.
[0060] The system uses water as the working fluid (due to its high heat capacity and environmentally friendly properties, it can effectively transfer heat and reduce energy loss). Coil 1 is installed in the surface cooling module 3. Circulating water in the surface cooling module 3 is used for heat exchange with the circulating water in coil 1. The top of the annular heat pipe 1.3 absorbs heat through the cooling pipe 1.4 and is then cooled. The heat enters the surface cooling module 3.
[0061] The combustion zone thermoelectric power generation chip set tube 1.2 generates electricity by utilizing the temperature difference formed between the annular heat pipe 1.3 and the exhaust pipe 1.1. The working fluid in the annular heat pipe 1.3 becomes gaseous after completing heat exchange in the combustion zone, is cooled by the cooling pipe, and then flows into the combustion zone to form a circulation. The surface thermoelectric power generation chip set tube 1.2 generates electricity by utilizing the temperature difference formed between the cooling pipe and the exhaust pipe.
[0062] The high-temperature flue gas completes heat exchange through the thermoelectric power generation chip group tube 1.2 and drives the cogeneration power generation module 2 to generate electricity, thereby improving energy utilization efficiency. In order to improve the cooling efficiency of the surface cooling module 3, the surface cooling module 3 adopts a cooling water radiator with a multi-circuit curved heat sink structure to increase the contact area between the cooling water and the pipeline. After passing through the cogeneration power generation module, the flue gas flows into the cooling end to extract heat and then is discharged.
[0063] As an optional embodiment, the annular heat pipe 1.3 includes an annular heat pipe 1 at the top, an annular heat pipe 2 at the middle, and an annular heat pipe 3 at the bottom, and the annular heat pipe 1, the annular heat pipe 2, and the annular heat pipe 3 are coaxially fixed;
[0064] Thermoelectric power generation chip group tubes 1.2 are coaxially fixed in the annular heat pipe 1, the annular heat pipe 2 and the annular heat pipe 3, and two adjacent thermoelectric power generation chip group tubes 1.2 are coaxially fixed;
[0065] The cooling pipe 1.4 is sleeved on the outside of the annular heat pipe 1 located at the top, and the cooling pipe 1.4 and the annular heat pipe 1 are arranged for heat exchange;
[0066] Another thermoelectric power generation chip group tube 1.2 is sleeved and fixed on the outer side of the annular heat pipe 3 located at the bottom.
[0067] To ensure optimal heat conduction between the thermoelectric chipset tube 1.2 and the heat pipe, multiple heat pipes are installed on the inner wall. The heat pipes are designed to be detachable so that they can be combined to accommodate thin layers of coal at different depths. The length of the heat pipes is optimized to minimize the number of connection points, thereby effectively reducing the risk of leakage and safety hazards.
[0068] The device is suitable for thin-layer coal fields and can realize in-situ combustion power generation, significantly reducing the cost of traditional coal mining and transportation.
[0069] A thin-bed coal in-situ fluidized mining method, using the above-mentioned thin-bed coal in-situ fluidized mining device, comprises the following steps:
[0070] Actively ignite shallow coal seams to form thin coal seam in-situ combustion zones;
[0071] The bottom end of the annular heat pipe 1.3 of the annular heat pipe module 1 is arranged in the thin coal seam in-situ combustion zone, and the top end of the annular heat pipe 1.3 is arranged on the ground surface;
[0072] The top of the annular heat pipe 1.3 is cooled by the surface cooling module 3;
[0073] Air is introduced into the in-situ combustion zone of the thin coal seam through the in-situ combustion module 4;
[0074] The coal combustion generates high-temperature flue gas, which is then passed through the annular heat pipe 1.3 to the cogeneration module 2 for power generation. The exhaust gas from the cogeneration module 2 is cooled by the surface cooling module 3 before being discharged.
[0075] The temperature difference power generation component of the annular heat pipe module 1 generates electricity by generating a temperature difference.
[0076] As an optional embodiment, the temperature difference power generation component of the annular heat pipe module 1 realizes the power generation step by generating a temperature difference. In the in-situ combustion zone of the thin coal seam, a temperature difference is generated on the outside of the annular heat pipe module 1 to form an electromotive force; a temperature difference is generated on the inside of the annular heat pipe module 1 to form an electromotive force.
[0077] The bottom end of the outer thermoelectric power generation chip group tube 1.2 of the annular heat pipe module 1 is in direct contact with the combustion zone, and its heat source comes from the combustion zone. The top end of the outer thermoelectric power generation chip group tube 1.2 is a cold source, and its cold source comes from the top of the annular heat pipe 1.3. The heat source of the bottom end of the inner thermoelectric power generation chip group tube 1.2 comes from the high-temperature flue gas in the inner exhaust pipe, and the cold source of the top end of the inner thermoelectric power generation chip group tube 1.2 comes from the top of the annular heat pipe 1.3.
[0078] The top of the annular heat pipe 1.3 is cooled by the cooling pipe 1.4.
[0079] Compared to traditional technologies, this device and method efficiently transfers heat generated by in-situ combustion of shallow coal layers through annular heat pipes 1.3. This heat is transferred to the thermoelectric chips within the thermoelectric chipset stack 1.2 for electrical energy conversion. Simultaneously, the high-temperature flue gas is reused through the cogeneration module 2, ensuring the efficiency and controllability of the power generation system. The annular heat pipes 1.3 feature a segmented, removable design to accommodate in-situ utilization of thin coal layers at varying depths. The thermoelectric chips generate electricity from the temperature difference between the high temperature in the combustion zone and the cooling water at the condenser end. This energy is used to operate mining equipment or power external devices.
[0080] The entire system design takes into account the dynamics of thin-bed coal combustion, changing environmental conditions, and combustion safety. The thermoelectric power generation chip and steam turbine power generation achieve cascade energy utilization, ensuring optimal system performance.
