摘要: 随着矿产资源开采深度不断增加, 地温梯度作用下的深部高温环境为高品位地热资源开发利用创造了重要机遇, 为探索利用废弃矿山实现闭环地热开采的可行性, 采用Biot孔隙热弹性理论框架建立了时变胶结充填体多场耦合模型, 并嵌入基于Navier-Stokes方程的非等温管道流模块, 提出了新的矿热协同充填开采仿真系统, 分析了不同开采方式与地热环境条件下的充填体多物理场响应以及出口水温发展过程, 揭示了系统运行过程中的热效率与结构稳定性演化规律。研究结果表明: 充填体水化放热是早期核心热源, 计算工况下90 d内贡献47.1%能量; 地热开采可增强系统稳定性, 在充填体、换热流体温度为15 ℃、围岩温度为35 ℃条件下, 孔隙水压与总应力峰值较无采热工况分别降低40.6%和22.1%, 换热流体的冷却作用造成孔隙水的受限收缩并降低充填体水压, 提高了系统稳定性。研究成果可为优化深部矿床地热协同开采方案提供理论指导与技术支撑。Abstract: With continuous increase of mining depth, the deep high-temperature strata with geothermal gradients provides significant opportunities for developing high-grade geothermal resources. To explore the feasibility of closed-loop geothermal extraction using abandoned mines, a multi-field coupling model for time-dependent cemented backfill was established based on Biot's porothermoelastic theory, where a non-isothermal pipe-flow module based on the Navier-Stokes equations was implemented. A new simulation system for co-mining of coal and geothermal energy with backfill was developed. The multi-physical field response of backfill and outlet water temperature development under different mining methods and geothermal conditions, and the evolution patterns of thermal efficiency and structural stability during system operation were analyzed. The results show that backfill hydration heat is the core early-stage thermal source, contributing 47.1% of energy within 90 d under calculated conditions. Geothermal extraction enhances system stability. Under conditions of backfill/fluid temperature at 15 ℃ and surrounding rock temperature at 35 ℃, peak pore water pressure and total stress decreased by 40.6% and 22.1%, respectively, when compared to non-geothermal-extraction scenarios. The cooling effect of heat-exchange fluid causes confined contraction of pore water and reduces backfill water pressure, thereby improving system stability.
