  • the invention relates to using a drilled borehole as a coaxial underground heat exchanger to store cold in and extract cold from surrounding bedrock and overbnrrlpn materials.

  • GSHP systems There are two main types of GSHP systems: open and closed loop.
  • the open loop system draws water from a well, lake or river or ocean and discharges it back to the source.
  • Closed loop systems use a seated pipe buried in the ground that circulates on antifreeze solution.
  • the pipes can be installed in horizontal or vertical loops.
  • Water and antifreeze solution loop heat pumps used in GSHP applications arc available in sizes from 1.5 to 300 kW (0.5 to 60 tons). The costs range from $800 to $ 1000/ton for the common size ranges. Higher tonnage equipment tends to display tower costs per ton. Costs for the loop are in the range of $1000/ton for horizontal loops and $ 1500- $1700/ton for vertical loops.
  • GeoExchange heat pumps use mainly R- 22 in the compression cycle and have hermetically-sealed compressors, thus refrigerant leaks are rare.

  • the main function of a heat exchanger is to transfer thermal energy between two fluids.
  • the two fluids are usually hot or cold water pumped in to the exchanger and cold or hot water pumped out of the exchanger.
  • the pipe is usually constituted by a tube centered in a borehole, positioned in the casing of the boicbole.
  • a major consideration in achieving maximum efficiency in employing these borehole heat exchangers is to provide as large a surface area as possible for potential heat transfer.
  • Thc3e heat exchangers typically comprised long sections of copper coil, with no enclosures surrounding (lie coils and no use of phase change materials. Copper has also become a rather expensive working material. Due to the low thermal conductivity and heat capacity of the earth, energy in near proximity nf these earth coils was rapidly dissipated, when the instantaneous heating demand of a heat pump system was engaged. Consequently, the temperature of the heat transfer fluid would continue to fall, and in a short time period, a second coil would have to be substituted for the exhausted coiJ. This would ultimately lead to malfunction and a required shut-down of the heat pump system. The coils displayed other drawbacks such as costly installation, a large area requirement, a need for custom-designed components and destruction of laws and ihey are only reliable for small receiving unit usage.
  • Energy storage is an enabling technology for use in a variety of energy systems, from residential to commercial and from industrial to agricultural. By contributing to large-scale energy efficiencies; energy storage significantly reduces environmental impacts from energy activities, increases the potential uptake of some renewable energy technologies, increases the potential for sustainable energy development and subsequently contributes to enhanced energy security. Energy storage technologies overcome the temporal mismatch between energy supply and demand, and are especially useful for rencwabJc energy technologies.
  • JEA Experts indicate that in terms of Thermal Energy Storage (TES) (IEA Annex 14, 2004), cooling is a first priority, followed by combined cooling and heating, and lastly heating.

  • Recent International Energy Agency research has identified an opportunity to improve the thermal efficiency of boreholes tor cold storage. By specifically targeting cooling applications, which are experiencing dramatic growth rates, this technology could be used globally to help electric utilities meet capacity shortages through storage of "free" renewable cooling energy.
  • North America has acutely IcJt the tightening of electricity supply and demand.

  • the temperature drop between the wall of the drill hole and the heating medium is comprised of three energy factors.
  • the first factor is caused by the thermal resistance of the water between the wall of the drill hole and the exterior of the pipe. Negligible convection has been found in the water given the pipe and borehole dimensions and operating temperatures currently used. Thus, the heat transfer occurs strictly through conduction. It must be noted that water is a poor thermal conductor whose thermal conductance may be improved if heat recovery is continued until the water freezes in the hole. This factor remains prevalent if heat Is supplied to surrounding rock.
  • the second factor regarding temperature drop is caused by the thermal resistance posed by the pipe wall. Formulae arc available to calculate these values, which decrease with increasing pipe diameter and decreasing wall thickness.
  • the third factor involves the heat transfer resistance between the inside of the pipe wall and the neat transporting medium. This factor mainly depends upon whether laminar or turbulent flow prevails within the heating medium, although pipe dimensions and surface structure arc also notable influences. Noteworthy, is thai low heat transfer resistance could be achieved by increasing the flow rate.
  • Mogensen (1987) sought to avoid these numerous drawbacks by employing a method, which produces more efficient heat transfer. Specifically, Mogensen lowered at least one heat-exchanging element into the drill hole, then expanded the heat-exchanging element in a radial direction, such that this element at least partially contacted the defining surface of the drill hole. The expansion was accomplished by inserting a separate spacer between the pipes or by having the popes form a spring arrangement in relation to each other.
  • ⁇ single conventional U-pipe in a grouted borehole will typically have a thermal resistance that corresponds to a 5-6 0 C temperature difference between the rock and the heat carrier fluid in the U-pipe.
  • a double U-pipe will reduce this loss of temperature quality to 3-4 0 C.
  • a coaxial pipe or tube will have an optimal thermal efficiency and cut the difference to 1-2 0 C, since it allows the fluid to have direct contact with the entire borehole wall.
  • the requirement for small ⁇ Ts in cooling applications for UTES (underground thermal energy storage) systems is a prerequisite for direct cooling without heat pumps or chillers, and this is what made cooling with borehole storage uneconomical in the past.

  • the coaxial borehole system has the ability to operate at small temperature differences ( ⁇ T), which is directly i elated to borehole thermal resistance (R b ).
  • IIcat exchanger efficiency is a function of contact area and the turbulent flow in the system. The larger the contact area and the more turbulent the flow, the more readily the approach temperature for the heat exchanger is achievable and the smaller the ⁇ T required, to meet the delivered temperature.
  • the boundary conditions for Borehole Thermal Energy Storage are few, with the major condition being the temperature requirements.
  • the system can be employed anywhere including in u ⁇ consolidated (loose) rock formations or soils (overburden) through the use of a stiff liner to stabilize the wall of the concentric borehole.
  • the coaxial BTES is the only system than can take advantage of the low temperature difference values (0.5C to 8C degrees).
  • 30ft sedimentary rocks are excluded. Crystalline rocks are the most desirable geological materials. Therefore, geologically suitable locations for coaxial boreholes include much of the eastern and western coasts of Canada and the United States. The interior plains or large sedimentary basins in Canada and the United States are generally excluded from development of the coaxial borehole designs. Similar geologic regimes around the globe are also suitable for deployment of the coaxial borehole technology.
  • Cooling Applications were previously classified into the general areas of building air conditioning and process cooling. Within building air conditioning, further segregation is based upon building function and size. Within process cooling, a further distinction is made between high- temperalure and tow-temperature cooling, and by size of cooling load.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un système de transfert permettant des applications de réfrigération et de conditionnement d'air commerciales et industrielles. Du froid est extrait du sous-sol au moyen d'un puits foré dans des roches de recouvrement ou des lits rocheux, habituellement à 150 à 180 mètres de profondeur, utilisé comme échangeur d'énergie coaxiale. De l'eau est acheminée au fond du puits par pompage à travers un tuyau central concentrique, avec retour en surface via l'espace compris entre le tuyau intérieur et le puits. La chaleur est perdue et le froid est gagné par le flux de circulation le long de l'échangeur thermique. La principale innovation dans ce système réside dans la capacité de transfert et de stockage de l'énergie du froid à une plage de températures comprises entre zéro et 8 C pendant une durée prescrite, sans utiliser de réfrigérants, grâce à la faible résistance thermique du puits de cette conception coaxiale. D'autres améliorations comprennent les coûts de forage inférieurs et une installation plus facile.
