[0021] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model more clear, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.
[0022] Reference Figure 1 A heat preservation and heat exchange structure for a medium-deep geothermal well includes an outer tube 2 and an inner tube 3 arranged in a geothermal well 1. The inner tube 3 is arranged inside the outer tube 2, and an annulus 4 is formed between the inner tube 3 and the outer tube 2. A heat exchange medium flows through the annulus 4 to the deep layer of the geothermal well 1 for heat exchange, flows into the inner tube 3 along the end of the inner tube 3 located in the geothermal well 1, and flows toward the wellhead of the geothermal well 1 through the inner tube 3, and finally the heat exchange medium is extracted for heat supply.
[0023] The geothermal well 1 extends downward from the wellhead and is divided into the first section 7 and the second section 8. The first section 7 geothermal well 1 is in the geothermal variable temperature layer. The geothermal heat is greatly affected by the environment and geographical location, and the geothermal temperature distribution varies greatly. The first insulation layer 5 is set on the outside of the outer pipe 2 of the first section 7 geothermal well 1. The first insulation layer 5 blocks the heat exchange of the heat exchange medium to ensure the stability of the heat exchange medium temperature. The first insulation layer 5 uses hard polyurethane foam. The hard polyurethane foam has good thermal insulation performance and can provide certain support, which is conducive to improving the stability of the shallow structure of the geothermal well 1; the second section 8 geothermal well 1 is in the geothermal constant temperature and warming layer. As the depth of the geothermal well 1 increases, the geothermal temperature gradually rises, and the heat exchange medium exchanges heat with the outer geothermal source through the outer pipe 2, and the temperature of the heat exchange medium gradually rises.
[0024] Reference Figure 2 , the inner tube 3 and the outer tube 2 nested within a certain length form a group of geothermal pipes. Multiple groups of geothermal pipes need to be placed in the geothermal well 1. Adjacent geothermal pipes are connected by connectors 9. The connectors 9 respectively conduct the adjacent outer tubes 2 and the adjacent inner tubes 3 to facilitate the flow of heat exchange medium. The connectors 9 and the geothermal pipes are connected by welding. In a group of geothermal pipes, a support plate 10 is arranged between the outer tube 2 and the inner tube 3. The support plate 10 extends along the axial direction of the geothermal pipe. The two sides of the support plate 10 are respectively vertically connected to the outer tube 2 and the inner tube 3. Multiple support plates 10 are evenly arranged around the inner tube 3. Near the position of the connector 9, the connection side of the support plate 10 and the inner tube 3 is separated from the inner tube 3 and gradually approaches the side of the outer tube 2 to form a streamlined transition. When the heat exchange medium in the adjacent annulus 4 flows, the heat exchange medium passes through the connector 9, which facilitates the rapid diversion of the heat exchange medium.
[0025] The support plate 10 is made of heat-conducting material. Since the support plate 10 is connected to the outer tube 2, the support plate 10 can be used to transfer heat to the heat exchange medium, thereby increasing the heat exchange area, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange medium. At the same time, the support plate 10 is used to assist in supporting the outer tube 2 to improve the overall structural strength of the outer tube 2. As the depth of the geothermal well 1 increases, the pressure outside the outer tube 2 rises. The support plate 10 is preferably arranged on the geothermal pipe located in the second section 8 of the geothermal well 1, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the support structure of the outer tube 2. The support plate 10 is preferably made of aluminum alloy material, which has good thermal conductivity and structural strength.
[0026] The number of support plates 10 gradually increases with the increase in the depth of the geothermal well 1 in the second section 8. The number of support plates 10 in each group of geothermal pipes can be adjusted according to the geothermal temperature and is not limited here. On the one hand, the increase in the number of support plates 10 is conducive to adapting to the increase in pressure due to the increase in the depth of the geothermal well 1, thereby providing reliable support. On the other hand, the increase in the number of support plates 10 is conducive to increasing the heat exchange area, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency.
[0027] The inner tube 3 is provided with a second insulation layer 6, which includes a hollow chamber, in which a support member 11 and an insulation material 12 are provided, wherein the support member 11 is an annular partition having a certain thickness to improve the supporting performance of the support member 11, and the insulation material 12 is filled between adjacent annular partitions. In a group of geothermal pipes, a plurality of annular partitions are evenly arranged along the length direction of the inner tube 3 to improve the supporting performance of the inner tube 3. The annular partition is made of insulation material, and the insulation material 12 is made of aerogel. The aerogel has good insulation performance and a certain structural strength, so that the inner tube 3 has good support and insulation capabilities.
[0028] When the heat-insulating heat-exchanging structure for medium-deep geothermal wells is in use, the heat exchange medium flows to the deep layer of the geothermal well 1 through the annulus 4. The geothermal well 1 located in the first section 7 temperature-changing layer reduces the heat exchange between the heat exchange medium and the outside of the geothermal well 1 under the action of the first insulation layer 5, so that the temperature of the heat exchange medium is stabilized. As the heat exchange medium flows to the deeper second section 8 geothermal well 1, the second section 8 geothermal well 1 is in the geothermal constant temperature layer and the warming layer. As the depth of the geothermal well 1 increases, the geothermal temperature gradually rises. The geothermal pipe located in the second section 8 geothermal well 1 is provided with a support plate 10, and the support plate 10 assists in supporting the outer pipe 2. At the same time, the heat exchange area is increased by the support plate 10, the heat exchange efficiency and the support stability of the outer pipe 2 are improved, and the heat exchange medium after heat exchange refluxes along the inner pipe 3 for heating. The second insulation layer 6 of the inner pipe 3 is provided with a support member 11 and a thermal insulation material 12, which is beneficial to reducing the heat loss of the heat exchange medium when it refluxes.
[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
