Induced Seismicity and Detailed Fracture Mapping as Tools for Evaluating HDR Reservoir Volume

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
The main goal of this paper was to estimate the heat exchange rock mass volume of a hot dry rock (HDR) geothermal reservoir based on microseismicity location. There are two types of recorded microseismicity: induced by flowing fluid (wet microseismicity)

The first power generation test of hot dry rock resources exploration and production demonstration project in the Gonghe Basin, Qinghai Province, China

open access: yesChina Geology, 2022
Hot dry rock (HDR) is a kind of clean energy with significant potential. Since the 1970s, the United States, Japan, France, Australia, and other countries have attempted to conduct several HDR development research projects to extract thermal energy by ...

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 ...

Numerical Simulation of Hot Dry Rock Fracture Monitoring by Time-Lapse Magnetotelluric Method

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
The spatial distribution of rock fractures during water injection in hot dry rock (HDR) geothermal is essential information for evaluating geothermal well fracturing. The rock fractures produce anisotropic electrical characteristics, which may facilitate

Joint interpretation technology of favorable HDR geothermal resource exploration in Northern Songliao Basin

open access: yesUnconventional Resources, 2022
Hot dry rock (HDR) is considered a new clean and renewable energy source. China is rich in HDR resources, but viable and reliable resource evaluation techniques and exploration methods have not been available yet. This research method, consisting of deep

A thermo-hydro-mechanical model of a hot dry rock geothermal reservoir

open access: yes, 2021
With sufficient data and the appropriate modelling tools, it is possible to replicate the real-life behaviour of geothermal systems. Modelling tools could guide geologists, engineers and decision-makers in developing an optimal design for these systems ...

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 ...

Exploration for hot dry rock geothermal resources in the Midcontinent USA. Hot dry rock conceptual models for exploration, HDR test site investigations, and the Illinois Deep Drill Hole Project. Volume 2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Three potential sources of HDR, each covering approximately a 2/sup 0/ x 2/sup 0/ area, were identified and subjected to preliminary evaluation with ad hoc exploration strategies. In the Mississippi Embayment test site, lateral thermal conductivity variations and subcrustal heat sources may be involved in producing abnormally high subsurface ...
