Abstract

Deep geothermal energy, recognized for its cleanliness and lack of pollution, has often overlooked the heat extraction dynamics of CO2-water two-phase flow within fractures. This study investigates the influence of H2O mixing ratios on the output thermal power(OTP) in CO2-Enhanced Geothermal Systems, particularly in regions where CO2 and water coexist. To explore this, a geometric model of a single fracture within dry hot rock (φ50 × 100 mm) was first developed using a 3D self-affine fractal function. Subsequently, a numerical model was constructed to account for the thermophysical property variations of the CO2-water mixture within a pressure range of 30 MPa and temperatures between 200 °C and 330 °C. Key findings include: (1) An increase in fracture width results in non-linear variations in the temperature gradient between the inlet and outlet. Notably, the mixture containing 30 % H2O and 70 % CO2 exhibited the most significant reduction in temperature difference, with a maximum decrease of 0.9 °C. (2) Fracture width has a profound impact on heat extraction efficiency, with the 60 % H2O and 40 % CO2 mixture showing the highest increase in output thermal power. At a fracture width of 2 mm, coupled with higher flow velocities, this mixture achieved an output thermal power of 149.69 W. These results underscore the critical influence of H2O mixing ratios on heat extraction power in CO2-water coexisting regions, offering valuable insights into heat production processes within actual geothermal reservoirs.
干热岩石单裂隙中co2 -水混相流的抽热机理
深层地热能以其清洁、无污染的特点而被人们所熟知,但人们往往忽视了裂缝内co2 -水两相流的抽热动力学。本研究探讨了水混合比对CO2增强型地热系统输出热功率(OTP)的影响,特别是在CO2和水共存的地区。为了探索这一点,首先使用三维自仿射分形函数建立了干热岩石(φ50 × 100 mm)内单个裂缝的几何模型。随后,建立了co2 -水混合物在压力为30 MPa、温度为200 ~ 330℃范围内热物性变化的数值模型。主要发现包括:(1)裂缝宽度的增加导致进出口温度梯度的非线性变化。值得注意的是,含有30% H2O和70% CO2的混合物的温差降低最为显著,最大降低了0.9°C。(2)裂缝宽度对抽热效率影响较大,60% H2O + 40% CO2混合气的抽热功率增幅最大。在裂缝宽度为2mm时,加上更高的流速,该混合物的输出热功率为149.69 W。这些结果强调了水混合比对co2 -水共存区域的抽热能力的关键影响,为实际地热储层的产热过程提供了有价值的见解。
