Modeling of Geothermal Systems [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Technology, 1986
Summary During the last decade, the use of numerical modeling for geothermal resource evaluation has grown significantly, and new modeling approaches have been developed. In this paper, we present a summary of the current status in numerical modeling of geothermal systems, emphasizing recent developments.

Hydrothermal Numerical Simulation of Injection Operations at United Downs, Cornwall, UK

open access: yesGeosciences, 2022
The United Downs Deep Geothermal Project (UDDGP) is designed to utilize a presumably permeable steep dipping fault damage zone (constituting the hydrothermal reservoir in a very low permeability granitic host rock) for fluid circulation and heat ...

A multicomponent geothermometer for high-temperature basalt settings

open access: yesGeothermal Energy, 2020
For successful geothermal reservoir exploration, accurate temperature estimation is essential. Since reservoir temperature estimation frequently involves high uncertainties when using conventional solute geothermometers, a new statistical approach is ...

Fully hydro-mechanical coupled Plug-in (SUB+) in FEFLOW for analysis of land subsidence due to groundwater extraction

open access: yesSoftwareX, 2019
Extensive groundwater extraction leads to the drawdown of the groundwater table, which can increase the stress of soils and lead to land subsidence. Analyses of land subsidence generally require numerical models based on the poroelasticity theory. FEFLOW

Numerical Investigation of Seepage and Heat Transfer in Rocks with Various Fracture Patterns for Geothermal Energy Extraction

open access: yesGeofluids, 2022
Unraveling the seepage and heat transfer coupled process between the working fluid and the fractured rocks in geothermal reservoir is of great significance to the exploitation and utilization of geothermal resources. In this study, based on the numerical

Geothermal Energy: Tapping the Energy in the Earth's Core [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Key facts: - Geothermal energy comes from the heat in the Earth's core. This heat creates underground reservoirs of steam and hot water, which can be tapped to generate electricity or to heat and cool buildings directly.

Cap rock efficiency of geothermal systems in fold-and-thrust belts: Evidence from paleo-thermal and structural analyses in Rosario de La Frontera geothermal area (NW Argentina) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cap rock characterization of geothermal systems is often neglected despite fracturing may reduce its efficiency and favours fluid migration. We investigated the siliciclastic cap rock of Rosario de La Frontera geothermal system (NW Argentina) in order to

Geothermal Modeling of the Raft River Geothermal Field [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
This interim report presents the results to date of chemical modeling of the Raft River KGRA. Earlier work indicated a northwest-southeast anomaly in the contours. Modeling techniques applied to more complete data allowed further definition of the anomaly.

Hill of Banchory Geothermal Energy Project Feasibility Study Report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This feasibility study explored the potential for a deep geothermal heat project at Hill of Banchory, Aberdeenshire. The geology of the Hill of Fare, to the north of Banchory, gives cause to believe it has good geothermal potential, while the Hill of ...
