Background technology
Solar energy is more satisfactory new forms of energy, but has ageing problem on utilizing, and the energy of accepting between sunshine period exceedes required, but cannot play a role after the sunset.Thereby unnecessary energy storage gets up during how at sunshine, for the continuous service of post sunset system, gets and has a surplus with tonifying for the deficiency, becomes and realizes the solar energy heat utilization device key issue of operation continuously.
In existing storage of solar energy technology, there is report or used multiple heat-storage medium.In recent years have to be reported in laboratory and obtain with certain material and make the composite phase-change material (shaping phase-change material) that matrix supports, in order to store heat, but there is the shortcoming that thermal conductivity factor is low in it, and phase-change material undergoes phase transition in heat accumulation process, due to the variation of volume, easily there is to leak the hidden danger of revealing.In addition, industrial also have the ternary aluminum alloy of use in order to as storage material, it has negative effect for thermal storage performance (as parameters such as phase-change thermal storages), and heat accumulating itself carries out solid-liquid phase change repeatedly in the course of the work, and impurity element will affect its serviceability and service life.Existing industrialized solar energy thermal-power-generating unit utilizes inorganic salts to do heat accumulating more at present, but the shortcoming that inorganic salts existed cold-peace to be separated in phase transition process, affected heat storage capacity, and its setting temperature is too high, causing night is to guarantee that it does not solidify the insulation cycling hot of carrying out and loses larger, once system occurs disposing difficulty after freezing point, has potential safety hazard; The pump, the valve that in salt melting system pipeline, use are expensive and service life is also shorter, and inorganic salts have toxicity, easily leak breaking out of fire, and leak can pollution on the environment.
Current international solar energy heat utilization stocking system mainly contains the types of devices such as two direct accumulation of heats of tank, the indirect accumulation of heat of two tank and the accumulation of heat of single tank mesolimnion:
As shown in Figure 1, heat transfer medium is heated in Salar light-gathering field two tank direct energy source storage systems (Two-tank Direct Energy Storage System), also directly as storage medium, is stored in hot tank simultaneously.Heat transfer medium after being heated is driven by pump, through steam generator, and obtains vapours generating.When Salar light-gathering field does not have heat when input, at for example night, heat storage can, because accepting the input of Salar light-gathering field heat daytime, has stored certain heat, still can act on steam generator in certain hour, produces steam and generates electricity; After heat transfer medium after steam generator is cooling, flow back to cold tank; When Salar light-gathering field thermotropism tank provides heat, on the daytime for example becoming a fine day, the heat transfer medium in cold tank is flowed through after light field is heated and is flowed in hot tank, completes energy absorption and storage.This system architecture complexity, required two hot tank costs are higher, and because the temperature upper limit of heat transfer medium is lower, its heat storage capacity is also restricted.
The indirect energy storage system of two tanks (Two-tank Indirect Energy Storage System) as shown in Figure 2, relatively cold fuse salt arrives heat exchanger from cold salt cellar under the driving of melting salt pump, obtain heat with the heat transfer medium heat exchange from solar energy light field, become hot fuse salt; The opposite direction that heat transfer medium after cold fuse salt mobile direction and Salar light-gathering field in heat exchanger are heated flows through; Heat fusing salt after being heated is stored in hot tank under the driving of pump for liquid salts.When heat-storage medium generates electricity, heat fusing salt flows out from hot tank, and through steam generator, heat fusing salt becomes cold fuse salt, flows into cold tank.Two direct heat reservoirs of tank of comparing, this system can store more heat; Its shortcoming is still to need two expensive heat storage cans, and the corrosive high-temperature fusion salt of demand motive, and after solidifying, needs heat accumulation salt to preheat, and makes it become fuse salt state, to drive; Complicated integral structure, operating cost is high.
Above two kinds of modes all can make most of heat energy storage obtain high-grade utilization in theory, and the heat-storage medium that finally flows out hot tank also can keep the condition of high temperature, therefore can obtain from start to finish the steam of high-temperature, thereby have the efficient generating efficiency of continuing.
As shown in Figure 3, the top of single tank is high-temperature medium to single tank mesolimnion energy storage system (Single-tank Thermocline Energy Storage System), and bottom is relative low temperature medium; When heat accumulation, the cryogenic media inflow heat exchanger of bottom, the high-temperature heat-transfer medium generation heat exchange with having accepted solar heat, obtains the temperature close with it, flows into afterwards the top area of single tank, completes heat accumulation process; When heat release, high-temperature medium flows out from single tank top, through over-heat-exchanger, heat is given to heat transfer medium as steam, pushing turbine generating, and high-temperature medium temperature reduces, and from heat exchanger, flows into single pot bottom, completes heat release.This heat storage can has vertical temperature gradient, the high-quality of can trying one's best carry out heat utilization, even but after commercialization or industrialization, holistic cost is still expensive, and system still cannot avoid the corrosivity of high-temperature fusion salt and solidify after heating and melting process.
Described above is to use in the world commonplace heat reservoir at present, the target of utilizing in order to obtain thermal energy storage and high-grade, all used and there is mobility, can carry out the heat-storage medium of locus transfer, so the equal more complicated of the overall structure of existing system, manufacture and operating cost are high; In addition, above-mentioned heat-storage medium is mostly poisonous and have strong corrosivity, exists after revealing and easily produces the problems such as fire, contaminated environment.

Fig. 5 is the procedure chart that is heated of the heat-storing device of embodiments of the invention, and the heat transfer medium spiral heat transfer intake line 9 that diameter rule changes of advancing of flowing through, to heat-storing device heating, makes its intensification.The layering heat transfer control module of the bottom multilayer heat accumulation space cell composition in heat accumulation space, multilayer heat accumulation space cell is the corresponding control valve of arranging respectively, in diabatic process, taking layering input to conduct heat controls, be that the temperature rise of relative upper strata high-temperature heat-storage space cell is during to critical excitation (after conducting heat, the output temperature of heat transfer medium is high to critical point), this layer of corresponding output control valve closed, and open the output control valve of adjacent lower floor heat accumulation space cell, start the heat transfer cycle system of this layer of heat accumulation space cell, until the temperature rise of this layer of heat accumulation space cell is during to critical excitation, open again the heat transfer cycle system under this layer, by that analogy, until finally open bottom heat accumulation space cell, complete the heat transfer of integral high-temperature grade.
In this heat-storing device, heat accumulation space cell 15-2 and 15-1 composition layering heat transfer control module, the control valve acquiescence of heat accumulation space cell 15-2 is opened, and the control valve of 15-1 acquiescence is closed.Concrete entirety is subject to thermal process to be: suppose that heat-storing device is through continuing night after heat release, the temperature of the interior heat-storage medium 3 in heat accumulation space 2 is all down to 150~250 ℃ of left and right, while being step 5-a, heat transfer medium is flowed through in heat accumulation space 2, from 15-5 unit, heat accumulation space, start to heat heat-storage medium 3, pass through heat accumulation space cell 15-4,15-3 and 15-2 midway, and in initial diabatic process, heat-storage medium is without heat accumulation space cell 15-1, during heat-storage medium 3 process heat accumulation space cell 15-2, heat transfer medium has discharged most of heat, after the heat transfer of certain hour, be step 5-b, it is close with the heat transfer medium temperature of input time that the temperature of heat accumulation space cell 15-5 has obtained, now heat transfer medium discharges certain heat through heat accumulation space cell 15-4, heat transfer medium temperature declines to some extent, during through heat accumulation space cell 15-3, heat transfer medium continues release heat, its bulk temperature continuous decrease, at heat accumulation space cell, 15-2 still has certain thermal release, heat transfer medium temperature in whole process is all declining, and heat-storage medium 3 temperature are all rising, again through after a period of time, be step 5-c, heat accumulation space cell 15-4 obtains and the temperature of heat transfer medium input time substantially to heat-storage medium 3 temperature in the space of heat accumulation space cell 15-3, now heat transfer medium is less to heat accumulation space cell 15-3 release heat through heat accumulation space cell 15-5, it mainly heats the heat-storage medium 3 of heat accumulation space cell 15-2, again after certain hour, be step 5-d, the heat-storage medium 3 temperature substantially constants that are heated in heat accumulation space 2 have for example 550~650 ℃ of very high temperature simultaneously, now, if when solar energy light field still has a large amount of heats to transfer to heat-storing device, starting to take layering input to conduct heat controls, be step 5-e, by the heat accumulation space cell of heat accumulation space 2 bottoms, for example heat accumulation space cell 15-1, open and conduct heat, increase one deck heat accumulation space cell, now heat transfer medium is through heat accumulation space cell 15-5, 15-4, 15-3, during 15-2, only has the release of little heat, while reaching heat accumulation space cell 15-1, heat discharges in a large number, heat-storage medium 3 temperature of heat accumulation space cell 15-1 sharply rise, after certain hour, this heat accumulation space cell 15-1 heat heat accumulation completes.
If still there is heat transmission solar energy mirror field, use the mode of foregoing description to take layering input heat transfer to control, again open the lower floor heat accumulation space cell adjacent with heat accumulation space cell 15-1, complete the more storage of multipotency.At the initial stage of being heated, hour, heat accumulation space 2 internal cause multilayers have the series connection heat accumulation space cell structure of layer to quantity of heat storage, in axial direction can there is obvious thermograde in it, entrance is high, export low, but porch also can obtain absorb the approaching high-temperature region of temperature.Along with quantity of heat storage increases, this temperature province can expand gradually, to exit development, and the state until final heat accumulation space 2 all reaches a high temperature.
