The mechanical wheel 1321 is connected to the mechanical generator 180, and when the object block 1323 descends, the object block 1323 drives the mechanical wheel 1321 to rotate through the steel stranded wire 1322, so as to drive the mechanical generator 180 to generate electricity.
It should be noted that, the material block 1323 may be selected from materials with a melting point higher than the temperature of the first thermal working medium according to the temperature of the first thermal working medium. The outer sidewall of the mass 1323 is in close proximity to the inner sidewall of the thermal mass seal well 132 to ensure that when a first thermal medium is input into the thermal mass seal well 132, the first thermal medium cannot flow out of the gap between the mass 1323 and the thermal mass seal well 132, the first thermal medium always being located below the mass 1323. The outer sidewall of the mass 1323 and the inner sidewall of the thermal mass seal well 132 are smooth surfaces to ensure that the mass 1323 can slide smoothly within the thermal mass seal well 132.
In a specific implementation, the mechanical wheel 1321 may be connected to a motor, the motor may drive the mechanical wheel 1321 to rotate, and when the object 1323 moves upwards, the steel strand 1322 is in a loose state and is not under the action of a tensile force, and the mechanical wheel 1321 bundles the steel strand 1322, so that the steel strand 1322 is wound around the circumference of the mechanical wheel 1321; when the object 1323 descends under the action of gravity, the object 1323 applies a pulling force to the steel strand 1322, and the steel strand 1322 drives the mechanical wheel 1321 to rotate in the opposite direction of the steel strand 1322, so that the mechanical wheel 1321 rotates to drive the mechanical generator 180 to generate electricity. Therefore, gravitational potential energy is converted into electric energy, and the energy utilization rate is improved. The mechanical generator 180 can supply power to the electric equipment in the geothermal energy utilization system 100 while supplying power to the external equipment, so that long-distance external transmission of electric energy is reduced, and the in-situ consumption rate of the electric energy is improved.
In some implementations, referring to fig. 4 and 5, a working fluid input port 1324 and a working fluid output port 1325 of a thermal mass seal well 132 of an embodiment of the present application are located at the bottom of the thermal mass seal well 132.
The first thermal medium in geothermal well 120 is output to thermal mass seal well 132 and mass 1323 is extruded up; after the first thermal medium output in the thermal mass seal well 132, the mass 1323 is lowered by gravity.
In the present application, the working medium input port 1324 and the working medium output port 1325 are both disposed at the bottom of the thermal mass seal well 132, so as to ensure that the first thermal working medium is located below the mass 1323, and avoid the first thermal working medium applying downward pressure to the mass 1323. The first thermal working medium is acted by gravity to make the first thermal working medium enter the thermal mass sealing well 132 from the bottom of the thermal mass sealing well 132, upward force is applied to the object block 1323 to enable the object block 1323 to move upward, gravitational potential energy is generated, after the first thermal working medium is output, the object block 1323 is lowered under the action of gravity, the gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, the mechanical wheel 1321 is driven to rotate, and accordingly the mechanical generator 180 is driven to generate electricity, and the kinetic energy is converted into electric energy. Thereby, the gravitational potential energy can be stored and utilized, and the energy utilization rate and the power generation efficiency of the geothermal energy utilization system 100 can be further improved.
In some implementations, referring to fig. 5, a check valve 1326 is installed at each of the working fluid inlet 1324 and the working fluid outlet 1325 of the thermal mass seal well 132 of an embodiment of the present application.
In the present application, the check valve 1326 is installed to effectively avoid the first thermal medium in the thermal mass seal well 132 from flowing backward due to the gravity of the first thermal medium and the pressure of the mass 1323, which causes damage to the geothermal energy utilization system 100, and simultaneously ensure the function of storing the first thermal medium in the thermal mass seal well 132.
