Performance Analysis of Single-Well Enhanced Geothermal System for Building Heating [PDF]
The Scientific World Journal, 2020 Deep borehole heat exchanger (DBHE) technology does not depend on the existence of hot water reservoir and can be used in various regions. However, the heat extraction from DBHE can hardly be improved due to poor thermal conductivity of rocks.

Performance analysis of shallow depth hydrothermal enhanced geothermal system for building heating
Case Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2021 The energy reserves of hot dry rock (HDR) and hydrothermal system are abundant in China. However, there is low-level development and utilization due to high risk, huge capital investment and immature technology for HDR and dispersion distribution ...
