Definitions
- the present invention relates to a cold water suction pipe for a thermal power plant of the sea.
- Such a thermal power plant of the seas generally comprises a floating platform on which are embedded means for producing electrical energy from the difference in temperature of the water at the surface and at depth, this platform being furthermore associated with means forming a deep water suction pipe.
- ETM Thermal Energy of the Seas
- the water may for example be at a surface temperature of 25 ° and a temperature of ⁇ ' ⁇ to 1000 meters deep.
- the cold water must then be pumped in great depth through means of suction pipe associated with the platform, while the hot water is pumped to the surface.
- the object of the invention is therefore to solve these problems.
- the subject of the invention is a cold water suction pipe for an offshore thermal energy installation of the seas, characterized in that it is made of a composite material consisting of reinforcements made of glass fibers and of a thermosetting resin and in that it has several sections of decreasing densities from the lower end to the upper end thereof.
- the suction pipe comprises one or more of the following features:
- the resin is polyester or isophthalic vinylester
- At least one layer of cellular material is integrated in the wall of the pipe
- the cellular material is formed by a fabric woven in three dimensions
- the textile is made of glass fibers.
- FIG. 1 represents a block diagram illustrating the general structure of an ETM installation
- FIG. 2 shows a sectional view of a wall portion of a cold water suction pipe forming part of such a plant.
- such an installation comprises a floating platform designated by the general reference 1 in this figure, on which are embedded means for producing electrical energy using the temperature difference between the water surface and depth.
- the floating platform 1 is associated with means forming a deep water suction pipe.
- One of these parts designated by the general reference 3 is formed of a rigid pipe designated by the general reference 5, whose lower end is immersed in great depth, for example between 600 and 1200 meters deep and whose upper end is immersed between two waters at reduced depth for example a few meters or tens of meters as illustrated.
- This upper end of this rigid pipe is then associated for example with means forming a buoy or support float designated by the general reference 6 in this FIG. 1, making it possible to maintain this rigid pipe in position and to means in the form of a collector designated by the general reference 7, for connecting the upper end of the rigid pipe 5 to the platform 1, via a second part of the suction pipe means, this second part being formed of flexible connecting pipes of the this upper end of the rigid pipe to the platform 1.
- the object of the invention is in fact the portion of rigid suction pipe for sucking cold seawater at great depth.
- thermosetting resin is composed of isophthalic polyester or vinyl ester.
- one or more layers of cellular material may also be integrated into the wall of the pipe.
- This cellular material may for example be formed by a woven textile in three dimensions, for example the textile known as PARABEAM® manufactured by the company of the same name.
- this woven fabric can also be made of fiberglass itself.
- Such a pipe can then be produced in situ by a corresponding manufacturing facility by winding and crosslinking around a corresponding mandrel.
- the pipe may have several sections of different densities, such as, for example, decreasing densities of the end lower towards the upper end thereof in order to adapt the density of the pipe to the density of the water to result in a pipe with almost zero buoyancy.
- Such a structure is particularly well suited to the intended application by having a manufacturing time compatible with in situ manufacture of the pipe while having mechanical characteristics compatible with the intended application.
- FIG. 2 illustrates an exemplary embodiment of such a duct, which then comprises, for example, a superposition of fiber reinforcements designated by the general reference 10 in this figure and layers of cellular material such as textile woven in three. dimensions, designated by the general reference 1 1.
