Background

Solar energy is a clean, reliable and pollution-free new energy, and efficient utilization of solar energy is an important way for solving the problems of energy shortage, environmental pollution and the like. The combination of solar energy and seawater desalination has become one of the effective measures for dealing with water resource shortage and energy crisis. The Chinese has a long coastline and abundant seawater resources, and if the resources can be effectively utilized, the method can become an important way for relieving the fresh water pressure of China. However, the coastal areas of southeast China are important economic trade areas, and if a large amount of land area is occupied for seawater desalination, the economic development of the coastal areas of China is influenced. However, if the seawater desalination apparatus can be floated on the sea level, the problem can be effectively solved. Among all seawater desalination technologies, distillation is one of the simplest and cheapest methods, so if a solar light-gathering technology, a seawater distillation technology and a marine floating device can be combined, a solar seawater desalination device suitable for coastal areas in China can be designed.

The invention provides an open type floating solar light-gathering seawater desalination device driven by a heat pipe to evaporate, which is characterized in that a solar condenser is utilized to gather sunlight to heat seawater in a capillary tube at the center of the condenser, vapor generated by seawater evaporation directly enters a condensation cavity through the upper end of the capillary tube, is condensed on the inner wall of a transparent cover plate to form small water drops, and fresh water drops can drop on a flat plate at the upper side of the condenser and finally flow into a fresh water collection cavity. The device has the main advantages of integrating light gathering, heating, evaporation and condensation, having compact structure, saving long pipelines, reducing heat loss, greatly improving energy utilization rate, floating on the sea and not occupying land area.

Disclosure of Invention

The invention uses the transparent cover plate with high transmissivity and the solar energy condenser with large receiving angle to realize the utilization of sunlight. The capillary tube is fixed in the center of the condenser, the lower end of the capillary tube is connected with the seawater, and the seawater can continuously rise through the capillary tube due to the capillary action and is finally kept at a stable liquid level. The seawater stored in the capillary tube is continuously heated by sunlight gathered by the condenser, and is heated and evaporated to generate steam. The water vapor enters the condensation cavity through the capillary tube and is condensed on the inner side of the transparent cover plate at the top of the device, and formed water drops fall on the flat plate at the upper side of the condenser and then enters the fresh water collection cavity. The floating solar light-gathering seawater desalination of the open heat pipe driven evaporation is realized by utilizing the process.

The fresh water collection cavity (10) is tightly attached to the side surface of the supporting structure (8).

Sunlight (2) penetrates through the transparent cover plate (1) to enter the device, and is reflected onto the capillary tube (3) through the condenser (7), seawater in the capillary tube (3) is heated and evaporated, and formed water vapor enters the condensation cavity through the upper side of the capillary tube and is then condensed below the transparent cover plate (1). After condensation, a thin water line (6) is formed on the flat plate at the upper side of the condenser (7). Then the fresh water discharge valve is opened, the fresh water in the flat plate enters the fresh water collecting cavity (10), and the collected fresh water (9) is stored in the fresh water collecting cavity.

Detailed Description

The technical solution of the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and the embodiments.

FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of the floating solar concentrating seawater desalination plant driven by open heat pipes to evaporate according to the present invention. Its main structure includes: transparent apron (1), capillary (3), solar energy concentrator (7), bearing structure (8) and fresh water collection chamber (10). The connection relationship of each part is that the transparent cover plate (1) is connected with the supporting structure (8) to form a closed cavity, and the fresh water collecting cavity (10) is tightly attached to the side surface of the supporting structure (8). In the device, a solar concentrator (7) is tightly connected with a supporting structure (8), and a flat plate on the upper side of the concentrator and the solar concentrator (7) form a closed space.

The operation principle of the floating solar light-gathering seawater desalination device driven by the open heat pipe to evaporate is as follows: sunlight (2) enters the device through the transparent cover plate (1), and then is reflected by the solar condenser (7) and then irradiates the capillary tube (3). At the same time, the seawater below the device enters the capillary under the influence of capillary action, and the seawater level in the capillary continuously rises and is finally maintained at a stable height. The seawater in the capillary is directly irradiated and heated by the sunlight reflected by the condenser, part of the seawater is heated and evaporated, and the formed water vapor flows out of the capillary from the upper side of the capillary and enters the condensation cavity. Water vapor flowing out of the capillary tube does not return to the capillary tube under the surface tension of the water. The vapor is condensed under the transparent cover plate on the upper side of the condensation cavity, the condensed droplets drop on the flat plate on the upper side of the condenser, and the formed fresh water can flow into the fresh water collection cavity (10) through the fresh water discharge valve.

As shown in the top view of the device in FIG. 1 in FIG. 2, the solar concentrator (7) is a revolving structure and is tightly connected with the supporting structure (8), a plurality of concentrators are horizontally arranged, and the capillary tube (3) is positioned at the center of the concentrators. The fresh water collection cavity (10) is positioned at one side of the device.

As shown in fig. 3, the solar energy condenser (7) is a solid body made of a transparent material, the light irradiated into the condenser can be totally reflected in most of the lower surface of the condenser, and a reflective material (11) is adhered to the lower part of the part where the total reflection can not occur. Therefore, the material in the condenser is changed from air in fig. 1 into a solid light-transmitting material, and a better heat preservation effect is achieved. The condenser is irradiated by sunlight for a long time, the temperature is high, the heat can be directly transferred to the seawater in the capillary tube (3), the temperature of the seawater is further improved, and the energy utilization rate is effectively improved.

As shown in an embodiment example shown in FIG. 4, the transparent cover plate (1) is of an upward convex structure, water drops formed after water vapor is condensed when meeting cold can slowly flow down along the curved surfaces and drop into the fresh water collecting tank (12) at the intersection point of the two curved surfaces, and the fresh water collected by the fresh water collecting tanks (12) at different positions can be utilized in different ways, so that the flexibility of the device is increased.

As shown in an embodiment example of fig. 5, the fresh water collection method of fig. 4 is adopted, but the fresh water collected by the adjacent condensers is stored together, the water-absorbing material (13) is placed in the collection tank, flowers and plants can be planted on the upper side of the water-absorbing material, and the fresh water obtained by seawater desalination is supplied to the flowers and plants through the water-absorbing material (13), so that offshore planting is realized.

As shown in an embodiment example shown in FIG. 6, the originally adopted three-dimensional revolving body solar concentrator is changed into a two-dimensional stretching groove type solar concentrator, and a crack (14) is adopted to replace a capillary tube, so that the coverage area of the device on the sea can be increased, and the floating stability of the device on the sea can be further improved.

In summary, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
