Numerical investigations on the performance analysis of multiple fracturing horizontal wells in enhanced geothermal system

Geothermal Energy
The development of geothermal energy through enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) often encounters challenges such as fluid short-circuiting, water loss, and insufficient connectivity. This study presents a time-dependent seepage and heat exchange model for
