Abstract

The invention discloses a dry hot rock geothermal exploitation method. The dry hot rock geothermal exploitation method comprises the following steps of firstly, selecting a dry hot rock stratum with the stratum dip angle of 30-90 degrees as a target layer; injecting low-temperature liquid into the target layer to enable the target layer to crack to form a crack which is then developed continuouslyinto a crack network; and finally, injecting liquid into the target layer to collect heat. The dry hot rock geothermal exploitation method has the remarkable effects that the inclined stratum is selected as the target layer, the low-temperature liquid is injected into the target layer, and the crack network is formed in the target layer under the action of thermal stress, so that manual thermal storage is built in the dry hot rock, the required construction pressure is extremely low, the construction difficulty of manual thermal storage is greatly reduced, and the cost and difficulty of geothermal exploitation are lower.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a geothermal mining method, in particular to a geothermal mining method in hot dry rock areas. Background technique [0002] Geothermal energy is a kind of clean energy and renewable energy. The key technology of geothermal development and utilization lies in the construction of artificial heat storage. Artificial heat storage generally refers to the area where water and hot rocks are artificially built in the target stratum for heat exchange. Generally, it is characterized by the formation of a fracture network with developed fractures between two wells or a group of wells; at present, the commonly used method for constructing artificial heat storage is hydraulic fracturing, which generates macroscopic hydraulic main fractures in the rock body and intersects with many natural fractures to form Complex and developed fracture network. [0003] Hot Dry Rock (HDR) refers to a hot rock mass with a buried depth of 3-10 km, a temper...
