  • Patent number: 11933549
    Abstract: A high-performance thermal interface comprising a nanowire array disposed between a bottom metal layer and a top metal layer in which each nanowire is coated with a 3D fuzzy graphene layer. The thermal interface can be used by bonding it to the surfaces of adjoining substrates using layers of solder.

  • Patent number: 11486232
    Abstract: An exploiting method and device of marine facies natural gas hydrate. The exploiting method comprises the following steps: (1) after the construction of a vertical well, a fixed pipe is constructed, the exploiting well is set in the center of the fixed pipe, and the mixture is filled between the inner wall of the fixed pipe and the outer wall of the exploiting well; (2) the self-excited oscillating jet nozzle enters the exploiting well along the vertical well to the designated position through an orifice on the exploiting well and sprays the mixture, so that the mixture is broken evenly to form artificial fractures; (3) under the corresponding temperature, the hydrate decomposes to produce gas by depressurized exploiting; (4) the gas-liquid mixture exploited by the exploiting well is separated into liquid and gas in the gas-liquid separation device to collect liquid and gas.

  • Patent number: 11401784
    Abstract: An in-situ hydraulic jet exploiting device and method of a low-permeability natural gas hydrate reservoir. The device includes a high-pressure reaction kettle configured for formation, fracturing and exploiting of a hydrate, a stable-pressure gas supply module configured to adjust and control a gas flow rate, a constant-speed constant-pressure liquid supply module configured to control a liquid flow rate or keep liquid injection pressure constant, a thermostatic water bath configured to provide a constant-temperature environment for a device system, a back-pressure module configured to automatically control an exploiting rate or exploiting pressure, an in-situ hydraulic jet permeability enhancement module, a data collection and processing module configured to collect and process basic system parameters, and a pipeline connecting various components.
