a temperature controller coupled to the simulated gasification chamber and configured to control a temperature of the simulated gasification chamber;
a first pressure controller coupled to the simulated gasification chamber and configured to control a pressure of the simulated gasification chamber.
In the present application, the term "coal rock sample" refers primarily to (1) a coal sample taken from the sidewall of a true gasification chamber of a coal seam; (2) a side coking coal sample fired in a laboratory; and (3) raw coal samples including natural raw coal samples, artificially produced coal samples and the like.
In this application, the sealing shell is a shell made of an airtight or watertight material, such as special steel, stainless steel, or the like. For example, the sealing shell made of stainless steel materials can bear the temperature of 1200 ℃, and the temperature and pressure bearing problem of the device is well solved.
In the present application, the dimension of the sealing can in the first direction is larger than the dimension of the sealing can in the second direction, the first direction being perpendicular to the second direction.
In the present application, the first direction generally refers to a length direction of the sealed envelope, and the second direction generally refers to a width direction of the sealed envelope. The dimension of the capsule in the first direction is usually referred to as the length and the dimension of the capsule in the second direction is usually referred to as the width. Typically, the length dimension is greater or much greater than the width dimension.
In the present application, the sealing shell may be in different shapes, for example in the shape of an elongated bar, including a cylinder, etc. Optionally, the sealing shell is in the shape of a cylinder. At this time, the dimension of the capsule in the first direction generally refers to the axial length of the capsule cylinder (i.e., the height of the cylinder), and the dimension of the capsule in the second direction generally refers to the diameter dimension of the capsule cylinder (i.e., the diameter of the bottom surface of the cylinder).
In the present application, the shape of the sample receiving chamber matches the shape of the sealed housing, and may be, for example, a cylinder.
The length of the sample receiving chamber may be different. If the length of the coal rock sample is smaller than the size of the sample containing cavity, a high-permeability alternative rock sample can be placed in the sample containing cavity to adjust the position of the coal rock sample and the position filling when the length of the rock sample is insufficient, and the adjustment can be performed according to different conditions of the obtained coal rock sample.
In this application, the different temperature and the pressure condition of the gasification reaction that go on in the actual gasification chamber can be simulated to the simulation gasification chamber to different water invasion volume and limit water invasion volume under the different temperature and pressure condition are surveyed in the follow-up.
The temperature conditions within the simulated gasification chamber can be controlled by a temperature controller, including by the temperature controller increasing (e.g., heating) or decreasing the temperature of the simulated gasification chamber in different heating regimes to adjust or maintain the temperature within the simulated gasification chamber.
The pressure conditions within the simulated gasification chamber may be controlled by a first pressure controller, including increasing or decreasing the pressure of the simulated gasification chamber by the first pressure controller to adjust or maintain the pressure within the simulated gasification chamber.
Alternatively, the water supply may take the form of a pressurised pump to deliver water. Alternatively, the pressurizing pump may further have a heater to deliver and inject water having different injection pressures and injection temperatures into the sample-accommodating chamber.
Alternatively, the first pressure controller may take the form of, for example, a back pressure pump. The first pressure controller may be adapted to ensure a flow direction of water from the first water inlet to the second water outlet under a condition that the injection pressure is greater than the back pressure. The back pressure provided by the back pressure pump may typically be in the range of 1-10 MPa.
Optionally, the observation window may be transparent to ensure that the water invasion effect of the end face of the first water outlet can be observed from the outside of the sealed shell, and to judge the limit water invasion amount. The viewing window may be provided on the sealed housing.
Optionally, the size of the heat and pressure insulating sleeve is adapted to the size of the sample receiving cavity. Optionally, the heat-insulating pressure-maintaining sleeve is used for isolating heat of the sample accommodating cavity and maintaining pressure of the sample accommodating cavity, and the flow direction is limited to be only the flow direction from the first water inlet to the second water outlet.
Alternatively, the insulating and pressure-retaining sleeve may be made of a ceramic material. For example, thermal and pressure jackets can withstand temperatures up to 2100 ℃ using silicate ceramics. The heat insulation and constant pressure effects of the upper and lower surrounding rocks in the coal bed are realized through the pressure maintaining and heat resisting effects of the ceramic on the outside of the sample accommodating cavity.
Optionally, if the reaction temperature in the simulated gasification cavity is above 1400 ℃, a thermal insulation layer may be further disposed on a side of the simulated gasification cavity close to the thermal insulation and pressure retention sleeve to prevent the thermal insulation and pressure retention effect of the thermal insulation and pressure retention sleeve from being affected by an excessive temperature. The heat insulating layer is made of high temperature resistant metal.
Optionally, in order to further enhance the heat and pressure insulating effect of the heat and pressure insulating sleeve on the sample accommodating cavity and the effect of limiting the water flowing direction, a second pressure controller connected with the heat and pressure insulating sleeve can be further provided.
Alternatively, the second pressure controller may take the form of a jacketed pump. The second pressure controller is used for generating pressure on the heat-insulation pressure-maintaining sleeve so as to further ensure that the coal rock sample to be measured in the sample containing cavity is in a sealed heat-insulation state and the flow direction of water is ensured. The casing pressure provided by the casing pressure pump may typically be in the range of 1-10 MPa.
Optionally, the apparatus of the present application further comprises a first pressure sensor disposed between the water supply device and the first water inlet.
Optionally, the device further comprises a temperature sensor and a second pressure sensor, and the temperature sensor and the second pressure sensor are both connected with the simulated gasification cavity.
Optionally, the apparatus may further comprise a first flow meter disposed between said water supply device and said first water inlet, and a second flow meter disposed on a side of said second water outlet remote from said second water inlet.

The temperature data in the simulated gasification cavity measured by the temperature sensor, the injection pressure data of the water measured by the first pressure sensor, the pressure data in the simulated gasification cavity measured by the second pressure sensor, the water flow data injected into the sample containing cavity measured by the first flowmeter and the water flow data discharged from the second water outlet measured by the second flowmeter are transmitted to the data collector.
Optionally, the data collector may also be connected to a computer data processing system for data storage and processing.
Optionally, the apparatus may further comprise a third pressure sensor for measuring the pressure of the first pressure controller and a fourth pressure sensor for measuring the pressure of the second pressure controller. The pressure data measured by the third pressure sensor and the fourth pressure sensor can also be collected by the data collector and transmitted to the computer data processing system.
