Among all types of ocean energy, ocean temperature difference energy belongs to ocean thermal energy, and its main energy source is solar radiation energy contained in the ocean . The ocean temperature difference energy has the characteristics of huge reserves and relatively stable changes over time. Therefore, using ocean temperature difference energy to generate electricity is expected to provide stable, large-scale energy in some regions.
Ocean temperature difference energy generation process
1. Pump warm water from the ocean surface to an evaporator at normal temperature, heat ammonia, freon and other fluids circulate in the evaporator to evaporate them into high pressure gas media.
2. Send the high pressure gas medium to the turbine, making the turbine rotateand driving the generator to produce electricity. At the same time, the high pressure gas medium becomes a low pressure gas. AVERAGE.
3. Pump cold water from the deep water zone into the condenser to condense the low pressure gas exiting the turbine into liquid medium.
4. Send the liquid medium to the compressor for pressurization, then send it to the evaporator for a new cycle.
