  • Publication number: 20250137692
    Abstract: The embodiment of the present application discloses a single-well heat exchange system and a downhole enhanced heat exchange device of a geothermal well. The first main pipe communicates with an inner pipe of the single-well heat exchange device, return water entering the inner pipe sequentially enters the first main pipe and the second main pipe, part of the return water directly flows back to a geothermal reservoir, and part of the return water enters an annulus between the inner pipe and an outer casing of the single-well heat exchange device through a through hole of the second main pipe. The part, located at a target reservoir, of the retractable heat exchange pipe is used for absorbing geothermal heat of the target reservoir and transmitting the geothermal heat to an fixed end of the retractable heat exchange pipe to heat the return water entering the first main pipe.

  • Patent number: 11121966
    Abstract: Techniques for centralized application-layer routing at the edge of an online application service provider network. In one embodiment, for example, a method comprises storing data representing a directed graph; based at least on a respective cost and the respective capacity associated with directed edges in the directed graph, determining a respective edge flow value for each directed edge; based at least on the respective edge flow value for a particular directed edge that connects a first node in directed graph to a second node in the directed graph, determining a weight for a location in a data communications network represented by the second node; receiving an application-layer request message at a location in the network represented by the first node; and selecting, based at least on the weight, the location represented by the second node to which to route the application-layer request message in the network.
