- the devices described could of course operate in a different context than ⁇ with hot and cold fluids different from seawater (for example with geothermal energy and hot water coming from the basement and cold water coming from of a river, or with industrial heat recovery) or at temperatures substantially different from those indicated above with the condition of adaptations to the device obvious to a specialist.
- the present application includes these other uses and / or other fluids.
- the following table gives examples of recoverable heat temperature levels, i.e. the temperature of the hot fluid, in various industrial applications in which the device of the present invention could be used.
- FIG. 1 represents the mistlift process described in US 4,441,321
- the hot water 45 taken near the surface 49 of the ocean is ejected with an upward vertical speed by a fog generator 41 to produce a multitude of micro droplets 43 in a chamber 46 in which a high vacuum is maintained.
- the steam is then relaxed in a vertical divergence where it communicates part of its energy to the water droplets by raising them against gravity in an acceleration zone 40.
- This cold water spray makes it possible to gradually condense the steam in the upper part of the enclosure 46.
- the set consisting of cold water spray, hot water droplets and the remaining vapor converges at the top of the chamber 46 to form a liquid jet.
- the liquid part is released into the ocean.
- a vacuum pump 47 makes it possible to evacuate the non-condensables out of the enclosure 46.
- the energy of the device is recovered by means of a hydraulic turbine 42 inserted into the hot water supply channel.
- this device has the disadvantage of requiring very large steam passage sections associated with very large heights. Indeed, given the very low density of the steam and its initial speed necessarily limited, the pressure upstream of the fog generator is reduced by the pressure drop due to the hydraulic turbine. For example, such a 4 MW device for ⁇ would be 20m in diameter for nearly 100m high.
- the fog generator and acceleration zone assembly is one of the key elements of the device, since it involves transforming the thermal energy contained in the water into kinetic energy for the vapor (by relaxation), itself communicated. in large part to the droplets by the steam.
- the device according to the invention constitutes a new concept of the fog generator and accelerator zone assembly and in particular makes it possible to improve its efficiency.
- the droplets will have to travel a long distance in the enclosure 46 with a very high probability of collision between the droplets themselves or with the walls. Indeed, although initially homogeneous, the dimensions and speeds of the droplets become increasingly heterogeneous as collisions and coalescing phenomena, resulting in different droplet speeds. Each collision constitutes a loss of energy for the device. A significant loss will be made through these collisions. The largest droplets will be little or no steam and may fall back into the chamber. The convergence of the droplets to form a single jet can not be done without a significant loss of energy.
- the contact surface between cold water spray and steam must be very important requiring a fine atomization of the cold water spray to obtain the heat exchange necessary for a total condensation of steam by cold water.
- the collisions of the droplets composing the cold water spray and the hot water droplets, then transforming into a single liquid jet consumes a lot of energy (successive collisions).
- FIG. 2 represents, from the prior art, a variant of the mistlift process in which the transmission of the kinetic energy of the hot water droplets 51 is done by incorporation into a liquid sheet 52 flowing on a wall 55, making it possible to reduce the height of the device above an acceleration zone 50 and to improve the transition from dispersed droplets 51 to a single-phase liquid jet 52 'that can be turbined by a turbine 53.
- FIG. 3 represents, from the prior art, a "Hero" turbine with four arms 1 mounted in rotation in a chamber, specific to a fluid having a very low vapor density at the relaxation temperatures considered.
- Each arm 1 can supply hot water at its end a fog generator assembly 6 and acceleration zone, the latter being for example in the form of nozzle 7.
- the proposed provisions for the Fog generator 6 and the throttle nozzle 7 are the same as those proposed by Stuart L Ridgway for the mistlift process.
- FIG. 4 represents, from the prior art, a detailed view of the end of the arm 1 of the "Hero" turbine of FIG. 3.
- the hot water under pressure feeds a receiver 5 and then passes through the generator of Fog 6.
- the two-phase fluid is then accelerated in the nozzle 7.
- the outgoing jet 8 propels the generator assembly 6 and nozzle 7 by reaction, causing the rotation of the arms 1 in the enclosure.
- FIG. 4 represents the end of one of the arms 1, comprising the receiver 5, followed by the generator 6 and the nozzle 7, oriented so that the jet at the outlet of the nozzle 7 is substantially perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the bars 1.
- FIG. 4 represents, from the prior art, a partial partial section view of the mist generator 6 proposed in the mistlift or "Hero" turbine concepts described above.
- the fog generator 6 proposed in the prior art must make it possible to cope with the specific constraints of ⁇ namely considerable amounts of hot water and extremely low vapor densities.
- a 10 MW ETM plant must treat a hot water flow of about 20m 3 / s.
- Each cubic meter of hot water will produce approximately 240 billion droplets 27 of 200 microns in diameter and 930 m 3 generate steam at the end of relaxation.
- the mist generator 6 consists of a plate 20 pierced with a multitude (several million) of injection holes 21 of convergent shape in which the water is accelerated under the effect of pressure.
- the holes of 100 microns in diameter are spaced by 2 mm or 250,000 holes per m 2 , a 10MW plant requiring a plate area of 350 m 2 .
- a jet 22 of liquid is formed at the outlet of each hole 21 of the plate 20, the diameter of the jet being substantially equal to the outlet diameter of the hole 21.
- this jet is suddenly depressurized at a lower pressure. at its vaporization pressure.
- the initial creation of the steam is perpendicular to the jet following the arrows 23, so as to fill the available volume between the holes 21 with the steam.
- this steam-creation phase does not provide any useful work on the droplets driving them in a direction perpendicular to that of the desired jet.
- the experiments carried out show rather a slowing in the direction of the jet of the initial speed of the droplets in this phase, the sudden creation of vapor causing a great turbulence in this zone. This energy is lost for the device. It is therefore necessary to limit this creation of initial vapor to a portion of the thermal energy available in the droplets.
- the steam 27 is then driven along the arrow 24 under the effect of the pressure difference between the hot injection zone and a zone kept cold by means of water from the cold source, in an acceleration zone 25.
- a divergent nozzle 26 corresponding to the nozzle 7 of Figure 4, common holes 21 of the plate 20 where the steam relaxes and converts the remaining enthalpy kinetic energy.
- this common nozzle 26 the droplets continue to cool and produce steam.
- the kinetic energy of the vapor is partly transmitted to the droplets under the effect of the friction forces between vapor and droplets which are accelerated.
- the jet path section changes abruptly, from the exit of the injection hole 21 to the acceleration zone (25) where the expansion of the vapor 27 is perpendicular to the jet velocity (the section passes abruptly from the section of the hole to a section 500 times larger). Not only does this vapor expansion 27 not transmit kinetic energy to the droplets in the desired direction, but it splits the jet into a multitude of droplets entrained perpendicularly to the jet. The velocity of these droplets and steam after this steam-creation phase is no longer in the direction of flow and there has been a loss of much of the initial kinetic energy of the jet.
- the acceleration that can be imparted to the droplets by the steam is proportional to the drag divided by the mass of the droplet.
- the mass of the droplet is itself proportional to the cube of the diameter. So in the end, the possible acceleration of the droplet is inversely proportional to the diameter of the droplet. For a diameter of 500 microns and a sliding speed of 20m / s, the possible acceleration is only 18 m / s 2 acceleration requiring a distance of at least 46 m. Droplets of 100 microns would allow acceleration and a distance respectively of 80m / s 2 and 10m while droplets of 10 microns respectively 890m / s 2 and 0.9m.
- the pressure drops of the two-phase vapor / droplet flow in the acceleration part are very large, compared to the available pressure difference. It is therefore essential to reduce the length of the acceleration zone as much as possible.
- the solution is to reduce the size of the droplets. Except the droplets quickly tend towards a large equilibrium diameter (500 microns) and the initial diameter is itself fixed by the diameter of the jet which is difficult to reduce below 100 microns taking into account the risks of plugging holes 21 injection (with a fluid such as seawater and bio-fouling) and given the pressure losses caused by the injection holes themselves.
- the fog generator device consisting of a plate 20 pierced with a multitude of holes 21 associated with an acceleration zone 25 as proposed in the prior art has serious constraints which will drastically limit the yields of the engine. device.
- FIG. 6 represents, from the prior art, an expansion nozzle for two-phase fluid.
- a nozzle comprises, successively in the direction of flow of the fluid, a convergent 10, a neck 1 1 and a tube 12.
- the fluid in the liquid state is first accelerated in the convergent 10 to the neck 1 1
- steam is produced by flash vaporization of the liquid.
- This steam is guided in the tube 12 which can be divergent from half-angle (a) from the section of the neck 1 1 and the flash vaporization controlled by the geometric parameters of the divergent 12.
- a controlled flash vaporization is obtained, with a vapor velocity represented by arrows 13 having a major component in the direction of flow.
- This type of nozzle is used in the ejectors and it has also been proposed, in the prior art, to use it in rotating machines of the "Hero" turbine type, each arm 1 carrying a nozzle at the end.
- This mixing element 14 represented on a nozzle in FIG. 7, can be for example a fixed or mobile propeller. This mixing element 14 allows effective mixing of the liquid and vapor phases downstream of the neck 1 1 and thus improve the mechanical coupling liquid / vapor.
- any increase in flow passes through an increase in the neck section 1 1 of the nozzle and therefore the diameter of the jet at the immediate exit of the neck 1 1. It is clear that the increase in the diameter of the jet will decrease the efficiency of the steam production during the flash, the exchange surfaces as a function of the water mass being reduced, the heat exchange inside the jet more difficult, and will also decrease the effectiveness of the formation of microdroplets during the breaking of the jet. Any increase in the liquid flow also involves increasing the flow of steam produced. Outside, in the case of ⁇ , very low density steam requires very large passage sections. The section of the nozzle at the outlet of the tube 13 must therefore be very important.
- the poor efficiency of the formation of microdroplets from the jet will limit the friction between vapor and droplets and cause the need for a very large acceleration length (for example a length of 46 m for drops of 500 microns in diameter while the length is 0.9m for drops of 10 microns in diameter) It should also be noted that it would take 80 nozzles of this type to treat a flow rate of 20m 3 / s hot water corresponding to a power ETM of 10 MW.
- each arm 1 carries a single nozzle of the type shown in Figures 6 and 7 at the end is not possible for power of a few MW, considering the flows to be treated.
- FIG. 8 represents, in one embodiment, a schematic diagram of the two-phase expansion device according to the invention, able to maximize the amount of movement produced by a two-phase flow.
- This is a sectional representation, on which a support 61, in the form of plate has been shown, only partially.
- a plurality of nozzles 60 each having at least one convergent 65, a collar 66 and a tube 67, preferably diverging in the flow direction of the fluid, are arranged adjacent to the support, next to one another, so that the total flow of hot water to be treated is distributed in each of the nozzles 60.
- the adjacent nozzles 60 are machined in a plate 61 which may be metallic or of any material resistant to corrosion and having characteristics sufficient mechanical Examples are steel, titanium or plastics or composites. The whole could, among the multiple possible embodiments, be obtained by molding or any other method.
- the nozzles 60 could also be produced separately individually and collected by a suitable support, or directly attached to each other by welding or gluing, for example.
- the hot water represented by the arrow 62 enters a receiver 63 whose role is to distribute the water to the multitude of nozzles 60 by minimizing the pressure drops of the flow at the inlet of the nozzles 60.
- turbulence can be inserted into the receiver 63.
- Sealing means are placed between the nozzles 60, so that a fraction of the flow of the fluid passes through each nozzle 60, without fluid flow between the nozzles 60.
- the flow represented by the arrows 64 passing through each nozzle 60 is controlled by the number of nozzles 60 of the device. This number can be chosen so as to be in a flow range favorable to the operation of each nozzle 60 and also so as to reduce the necessary length of the divergent tube 67 of each nozzle 60.
- an increase in the flow rate through the nozzle causes, among other things, an increase in the length of the diverging portion.
- this can be adjusted by adapting the number of nozzles 60 available on the support.
- the section of the neck 66 is designed so that, under the conditions of pressure and temperature of use of the device, a jet or a layer of liquid is obtained at the outlet of the neck 66, in the divergent tube 67, where a the diphasic expansion, generating a mist of droplets in their vapor.
- a mixing element similar to that described with reference to FIG. 7, can be integrated into the diverging tube 67 of part or all of the two-phase expansion nozzles 60.
- the totality of the available expansion is carried out in each of the nozzles 60.
- the two-phase fluid at the outlet of the nozzles 60 thus consists of liquid droplets 68 accelerated and dispersed in the vapor.
- the expansion and acceleration of the droplets being terminated at the outlet of the nozzles 60, this fluid will then be guided to the downstream devices for recovering the kinetic energy of the droplets and vapor condensation in the case of the mistlift and vapor condensation process. and recovery of the liquid in the case of the method using the principle of the turbine "Hero".
- the arrows referenced 69 indicates the direction of movement of the droplets and the vapor.
- each of the nozzles 60 is only partial, so that the fluid out of the nozzles 60 can be further expanded.
- a pipe 70 whose section varies appropriately and forming a divergent common to the plurality of two-phase expansion nozzles 60 extends the set of nozzles 60 in the direction of flow of the fluid.
- the common diverging conduit 70 makes it possible to terminate the expansion of the two-phase fluid and to terminate the acceleration phase of the droplets in an acceleration zone 71.
- This arrangement makes it possible both to produce the first expansion part in the nozzles 60 in favorable efficiency conditions with regard to this initial expansion and fractionation of the jet in micro droplets and with good guidance of the two-phase fluid and to achieve the end of the expansion with a minimum pressure drop by minimizing the wall surfaces.
- FIGS. 10a and 10b respectively show, in top view and in partial section, an almost square outlet section 60 for nozzles 60 making it possible to minimize the space between the nozzles 60.
- the passage section of the steam therefore varies little in the immediate output of the nozzles avoiding a sudden relaxation source of loss of load.
- extension elements 73 with variable section at the outlet of nozzles 60 to ensure continuity of the section variation.
- a possible arrangement of this type of element is shown in plan view and in partial sectional view respectively in FIGS. 11a and 11b.
- the extension elements fill the space between and at the outputs of the tube 67 diverging from the nozzles 60. Their section then varies gradually.
- FIGS. 11a and 11b show an embodiment in which the section of the extension elements 73 progressively decreases, allowing an expansion of the vapor on the zone referenced 74.
- the cold water The condensing of the steam produced can be ejected under spray form from these extension elements by means of suitable supply lines and injectors. This arrangement makes it possible to condense the vapor as close as possible to the end of the droplet acceleration zone 71 and thus to reduce the pressure drops and also to introduce the cold water spray 75 into the two-phase flow with a strong component the initial velocity in the same direction as the two-phase flow to obtain only one flow.
- the cold water spray can be positioned on the space available between the nozzle outlets 60, with a large component of the initial velocity in the same meaning that the two-phase flow to get only one flow.
- the liquid jet leaving the neck 66 of each nozzle 60 and then disintegrating in the form of droplets may be of any section, usually circular. The shape of its section is generated by the shape of the section of the neck of the nozzle.
- the liquid leaving the neck 66 is in jet form, that is to say with all the dimensions of the flow in a plane perpendicular to the flow of the same order of magnitude.
- the section of the neck 66, in a plane perpendicular to the flow of the liquid is for example circular or square: the jet then has a circular or square section and all the dimensions of the flow in a plane perpendicular to the flow of the same order of magnitude.
- FIGS. 12a and 12b show respectively in top view and in partial section another embodiment in which the shape of the section of the neck 66 of the nozzles 60 is arranged so as to produce and eject a liquid layer instead of a jet.
- liquid means a thickness of the liquid flow much smaller than its width.
- the neck section 66 may be, for example, rectangular as shown in Figure 12 and the section of the convergent 65 and the tube 67 diverging from the nozzles.
