Abstract:

The discharge of seepage water from undersea tunnel structures, often treated as wastewater, inherently carries a substantial reservoir of untapped low-grade thermal energy. Unfortunately, comprehensive investigations into harnessing this latent potential remain notably limited. This study introduced an innovative strategy through the design of an undersea tunnel seepage seawater source heat pump system. Distinguished by the integration of a capillary front-end heat exchanger, this system aimed to effectively exploit the frequently disregarded low-grade thermal energy present in the seepage water of undersea tunnel structures. The seawater seepage from the tunnel is transported to the car park at the tunnel entrance, and a seawater energy pool is constructed by storing seawater in its underground space. The use of capillary network placed in the energy pool in the front heat exchanger, water source heat pump units, circulating water pumps and fan coil end device composed of underground undersea tunnel seepage seawater source heat pump system for the building heating and cooling. Furthermore, a comparative assessment was conducted, contrasting this novel system with the traditional air-conditioning setup that utilizes chillers and gas boilers as cooling and heating sources. The aim was to evaluate its capacity for energy conservation and emission reduction. The findings from the study strongly affirmed the viability of the proposed seepage seawater source heat pump system within undersea tunnels. It boasted the potential to achieve annual savings of 53.55 tce, highlighting a noteworthy energy-saving rate of 21.2%. Concurrently, reductions in CO2, SO2, and particulate emissions amounted to 132.28 t/a, 1.07 t/a, and 0.54 t/a, respectively. This study not only stands as a reference for the strategic utilization of seepage seawater from undersea tunnel structures, prioritizing energy conservation and emission reduction, but also pioneers innovative approaches toward resource optimization and environmental sustainability, meeting the inherent needs of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals.
