The ISC unit includes a combustion zone, a gasification zone and a pyrolysis zone. The combustion zone is near the oxidant injection point in the coal seam; the gasification zone surrounds the combustion zone in a radial pattern or is downstream of the combustion zone, where coal is gasified and partially oxidized to produce product gas; the pyrolysis zone is downstream of the gasification zone, where coal pyrolysis generally occurs. The high-temperature product gas flows downstream from the gasification zone and is ultimately transported to the surface from the product wellhead. At the same time as the coal is burned or gasified, the ISC combustion void in the coal seam grows larger. The product gas produced by underground coal gasification typically contains syngas and other components such as solid particles, water, coal tar, hydrocarbon vapor, and other trace components including H2S, NH4, COS, etc. The complexity of its composition depends on many factors: the oxidant used in underground coal gasification, the internal water in the coal seam or the water infiltrated into the coal seam from the surrounding strata, the coal quality, and the operating parameters of the underground coal gasification process, including temperature, pressure, etc.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The utility model will be further explained in connection with the drawings and examples.

[0022] An indirect heat exchange type high-temperature product well system for underground coal gasification, according to Figures 1-4 as shown, comprising a reflux assembly 1, an output assembly 2 connected to the reflux assembly 1, a wellhead assembly 3 connected to the output assembly 2, and a temperature reduction assembly 4 connected to the wellhead assembly 3;

[0023] The temperature reduction assembly 4 comprises a rear temperature reduction cylinder 401 connected to the wellhead assembly 3, a front temperature reduction cylinder 411 connected to the rear temperature reduction cylinder 401, a stretching assembly and a plate pipe assembly respectively connected to the inner walls of the rear temperature reduction cylinder 401 and the front temperature reduction cylinder 411, a first connecting head 409 and a second connecting head 410 connected to the rear temperature reduction cylinder 401, a fourth connecting head 413 and a third connecting head 412 connected to the front temperature reduction cylinder 411, a connecting pipe 414 connected to the fourth connecting head 413, a product well screen pipe 415 connected to the connecting pipe 414, and a fixed pipe plate 416 connected to the product well screen pipe 415, wherein a plurality of through holes are formed in the fixed pipe plate 416.

[0024] According to Figure 4 as shown, the stretching assembly comprises a fixed sheet 402 connected to the inner walls of the rear temperature reduction cylinder 401 and the front temperature reduction cylinder 411, a servo motor 403 connected to the fixed sheet 402, a rotating screw rod 404 connected to the output shaft of the servo motor 403, and a sliding block 405 intermittently matched to the rotating screw rod 404.

[0025] It should be noted that the servo motor 403 drives the rotating screw 404 to rotate, and the rotating screw 404 drives the sliding block 405, which is in clearance with it, to move along the rotating screw 404. This allows the sliding tube plate 406 connected to the sliding block 405 to move synchronously, so that the bellows 407 connected to the sliding tube plate 406 can be deformed and stretched, thereby realizing the adjustment of the heat exchange area.

[0026] according to Figure 4 As shown, the tube plate assembly includes a sliding tube plate 406 connected to a sliding block 405, a plurality of bellows 407 connected to the sliding tube plate 406, and a plurality of guide plates 408 connected to the bellows 407.

[0027] It should be noted that by setting up several bellows 407, and through the special crest and trough design of the bellows 407, strong turbulence is formed due to the continuous abrupt changes in the cross-section inside and outside the pipe during fluid flow. Even at very low flow velocities, the fluid can generate strong disturbances inside and outside the pipe, which greatly improves the heat transfer coefficient during heat exchange. At the same time, during the operation of the bellows 407, on the one hand, the medium inside and outside the pipe is always in a highly turbulent state, making it difficult for solid particles in the medium to deposit and form scale; on the other hand, affected by the temperature difference of the medium, the bellows 407 will produce a small amount of axial expansion and contraction deformation, and the curvature inside and outside the pipe will change frequently. Since the linear expansion coefficients of the scale layer and the bellows 407 are very different, a large pull-off force will be generated between the scale and the bellows 407. Even if scale is deposited, it will break and fall off automatically, thus enabling the bellows 407 to maintain a long-lasting and efficient heat exchange performance.

[0028] according to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the wellhead assembly 3 includes an installation pipe 307 connected to the first connector 409, an oil pipe 304 connected to the installation pipe 307, a continuous pipe 306 connected to the oil pipe 304, a return pipe 308 connected to the continuous pipe 306, a connecting cover 305 connected to the oil pipe 304, a diverter 303 connected to the continuous pipe 306, and a derrick assembly connected to the diverter 303.

[0029] according to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the derrick assembly includes a fixed cover 301 connected to the distributor 303, a wellhead seat 302 connected to the fixed cover 301, a casing 309 connected to the wellhead seat 302, and a cementing sheath 310 connected to the casing 309.

[0030] according to Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the output component 2 includes a fifth pipe 204 connected to the splitter 303, a delivery pump 203 connected to the fifth pipe 204, a fourth pipe 202 connected to the delivery pump 203, and a water storage tank 201 connected to the fourth pipe 202.

[0031] It should be noted that the water inside the reservoir 201 is transported to the inside of the diverter 303 through the fourth pipe 202 and the fifth pipe 204 by the transfer pump 203.

[0032] according to Figure 1 As shown, the reflux assembly 1 includes a third pipe 105 connected to the water storage tank 201, a plate heat exchanger 101 connected to the third pipe 105, a first pipe 102 connected to the plate heat exchanger 101, a booster pump 103 connected to the first pipe 102, and a second pipe 104 connected to the booster pump 103. The second pipe 104 is connected to the distributor 303.

[0033] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
