Double-pipe geothermal water circulating apparatus
View Patent ↗A double-pipe geothermal water circulating apparatus including an outer pipe having a geothermal water supplying strainer for infiltrating geothermal water from an aquifer and a geothermal water returning strainer for returning used geothermal water to the aquifer, a thermal insulation inner pipe composed of a thermal insulator that forms a flow channel with the outer pipe, a pump for pumping the geothermal water from the thermal insulation inner pipe, a heat source supplying force feed pipe for force-feeding pumped geothermal water to an heat exchanger and a heat source reusing pipe connected to the flow channel for returning the used geothermal water to the aquifer. Also, the double-pipe geothermal water circulating apparatus is provided therein with the flow channel from the geothermal water returning strainer to the geothermal water supplying strainer that is not separated, whereby geothermal water can flow therethrough.
1. A double-pipe geothermal water circulating apparatus for using geothermal water in an aquifer for exchanging the heat, comprising:
an outer pipe having a geothermal water supplying strainer that is installed as deep as said aquifer for collecting geothermal water from said aquifer and a geothermal water returning strainer for returning used geothermal water to said aquifer from above said geothermal water supplying strainer,
a thermal insulation inner pipe composed of a thermal insulator inserted in said outer pipe that forms a flow channel with said outer pipe having an inlet for collecting said geothermal water adjacent to a lower end of said outer pipe,
a pump for pumping said geothermal water having a suction part for sucking said geothermal water from said thermal insulation inner pipe installed below a running water level,
a heat source supplying force feed pipe for force-feeding said geothermal water pumped by the pump to an heat exchanger, and
a heat source reusing pipe connected to said flow channel for returning said geothermal water used in said heat exchanger to said aquifer, wherein;
said double-pipe geothermal water circulating apparatus is provided therein with said flow channel from said geothermal water returning strainer to said geothermal water supplying strainer that is not separated, whereby geothermal water can flow therethrough, and with said inlet for collecting geothermal water, by mixing geothermal water infiltrated from said geothermal water supplying strainer with part of geothermal water used in said heat exchanger.
2. The double-pipe geothermal water circulating apparatus set forth in claim 1 , wherein: said heat source supplying force feed pipe is provided with water supplying and distributing means for using said geothermal water as a heat source and water source.
