Description

Sistema de producción de energía mareomotriz.Power production system tidal wave

Objeto de la invenciónObject of the invention

La invención se refiere a un sistema de producción de energía mareomotriz aprovechando la energía liberada por el agua del mar en sus movimientos de ascenso y descenso de las mareas.The invention relates to a system of tidal energy production taking advantage of the energy released by the water of the sea in its movements of ascent and descent of the tides

Antecedentes de la invenciónBackground of the invention

Debido al exceso de explotación de los recursos naturales, se plantea la posibilidad de aprovechar la energía liberada por el agua del mar en sus movimientos de ascenso y descenso de las mareas (flujo y reflujo).Due to excess exploitation of resources natural, the possibility of harnessing energy is raised released by seawater in its ascent movements and tidal descent (ebb and flow).

En el mercado de las energías limpias renovables, se ha intentado obtener energía eléctrica a partir de la energía mareomotriz, es decir, a partir de la diferencia de altura entre marea alta y marea baja.In the clean energy market renewable, it has tried to obtain electrical energy from the tidal energy, that is, from the height difference between high tide and low tide.

Pero actualmente, dentro del tratamiento de esta energía renovable, no ha habido grandes éxitos, pues se conoce la existencia de una central en Méjico que ha fracasado, porque se construyó un dique muy grande, y además del impacto visual y medioambiental que supone el mismo, puesto que crea una zona en la desembocadura de los ríos en donde no pueden subsistir ni animales ni ningún otro ser vivo, es innecesario un dique de tan grandes magnitudes.But currently, within the treatment of this renewable energy, there have been no great successes, as the existence of a plant in Mexico that has failed, because it built a very large dike, and in addition to the visual impact and environmental that is the same, since it creates an area in the mouth of the rivers where neither animals nor animals can subsist nor any other living being, such a large dike is unnecessary magnitudes

También existen otros sistemas que aprovechan las corrientes marinas y la energía de las olas, y aunque también puedan ser aprovechadas, realmente no son sistemas seguros o fiables de obtener energía, pues dependerá de si hay, o no, olas o corrientes marinas.There are also other systems that take advantage of sea currents and wave energy, and although also can be exploited, they really are not safe or reliable systems to obtain energy, it will depend on whether or not there are waves or Ocean currents.

El sistema que se propone se basa en la obtención de energía a través de la utilización de la fuerza marina.The proposed system is based on the obtaining energy through the use of force Marine.

Por ello, el sistema que se preconiza con la siguiente invención sólo necesita de una estructura que variará de tamaño en función de la mayor o menor necesidad de abastecimiento, que consta de una burbuja que en ningún caso tendrá más de 5 metros de diámetro, y la existencia de un mar, pues la energía se produce periódicamente con la diferencia de alturas entre las mareas, por lo que todo el trabajo lo realiza la naturaleza.Therefore, the system that is recommended with the following invention only needs a structure that will vary from size depending on the greater or lesser need for supply, consisting of a bubble that in no case will have more than 5 meters in diameter, and the existence of a sea, because energy is produced periodically with the difference in heights between the tides, so that all work is done by nature.

Descripción de la invenciónDescription of the invention

Además de los inconvenientes mencionados anteriormente en el tratamiento de la energía mareomotriz, otros sistemas de energías renovables como son el molino eólico o el panel solar, tienen como grandes inconvenientes los siguientes:In addition to the mentioned disadvantages formerly in the treatment of tidal energy, others renewable energy systems such as the windmill or panel solar, have the following disadvantages:

2)2)
Costes de inversión elevadosHigh investment costs

3)3)
Poco productivos, con un rendimiento inferior al 50%Little bit productive, with a yield below 50%

La solución para solventar todos estos inconvenientes pasa por una estructura sólida que consta de un depósito de agua tipo burbuja, a una altura determinada por la altura de la marea, anclada al suelo, en un faro, en las columnas que sostienen los pantalanes en los puertos o en medio del mar. Dicho depósito consta de un pequeño agujero en la parte superior para facilitar la entrada y salida del aire, y otro en la parte inferior, por donde se llena y se vacía de agua, comunicado con una columna de agua donde se instalan turbinas para tener mayor presión.The solution to solve all these drawbacks goes through a solid structure consisting of a bubble water tank, at a height determined by the tide height, anchored to the ground, in a lighthouse, in the columns that hold the swamps in the ports or in the middle of the sea. Said deposit consists of a small hole in the upper part to facilitate the entry and exit of the air, and another in the part bottom, where it fills and empties of water, communicated with a water column where turbines are installed to have greater Pressure.

Es decir, únicamente abriendo dos válvulas y con un circuito simple, similar al de un vehículo, se consigue gran cantidad de energía sin esfuerzo.That is, only by opening two valves and with a simple circuit, similar to that of a vehicle, you get great effortless amount of energy

Este sistema tiene las siguientes ventajas:This system has the following advantages:
