Abstract

The findings of new energy and energy harvester are the important issues for the lacking of fossil energy. For the purpose of the effective usage of supercritical CO2 flowed from the product well of CO2 EGS (Enhanced Geothermal System), an innovative heat pipe heat exchanger (Hx) is designed and practiced in this study. This study presents an innovative Hx of heat pipe for extracting the heat from CO2 or warm gas. By using the heat pipe for cooling gas is the fundamental idea of this Hx. The experimental apparatus of Hx consists a heating blower to blow out hot gas, a circulating cool water device, and a set of heat pipes. The efficiency of Hx is approved as the increasing air velocity and the more fins gradually. This innovative heat pipe exchanger is proofed through our experiment. This heat pipe Hx is suitable for the application of enhanced geothermal system (EGS) and more energy harvesting application.
