Heat Generation and Accumulation for Hot Dry Rock Resources in the Igneous Rock Distribution Areas of Southeastern China

open access: yesLithosphere, 2022
Hot dry rock (HDR) is an important geothermal resource and the primary direction of future geothermal development. Granite is particularly rich in radiogenic heat-generating elements (e.g., U, Th, and K) and is thus the main target for HDR development ...

Temperature-dependent factors on hydraulic fracturing of hot dry rock (HDR): An experimental investigation

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020
AbstractHot dry rock (HDR) is rich in geothermal energy and renewable and does not cause pollution; therefore, it has attracted considerable research attention. Previous studies have extensively discussed the process of HDR hydraulic fracturing based on the crack initiation mechanism, initiation pressure, and crack propagation law.

A Structural-Thermal Model of the Karkonosze Pluton (Sudetes Mountains, SW Poland) for Hot Dry Rock (HDR) Geothermal Use [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Mining Sciences, 2016
Abstract The main objective of this study was to develop a spatial temperature distribution of the Karkonosze Pluton to indicate optimum locations for HDR systems at drillable depth. HDR geothermal technology makes it possible to extract heat from the Earth in areas where no hydro-geothermal resources are present.

Effects of CO2 thermal properties and local fracture heterogeneity on heat transfer by supercritical CO2 flowing through fractured granite

open access: yesEnergy Reports, 2021
The exploitation of hot dry rock (HDR) based on supercritical CO2 (SCCO2) is an effective solution to the global energy crisis and climate change. The changes in the thermal properties of SCCO2 and rocks induced by high temperatures (pressures) have ...
