Applications of fractured continuum model to enhanced geothermal system heat extraction problems
This paper describes the applications of the fractured continuum model to the different enhanced geothermal systems reservoir conditions. The capability of the fractured continuum model to generate fracture characteristics expected in enhanced geothermal systems reservoir environments are demonstrated for single and multiple sets of fractures. Fracture characteristics are defined by fracture st...
متن کاملHeterogeneity Preserving Upscaling for Heat Transport in Fractured Geothermal Reservoirs
In simulation of fluid injection in fractured geothermal reservoirs, the characteristics of the physical processes are severely affected by the local occurence of connected fractures. To resolve these structurally dominated processes, there is a need to develop discretization strategies that also limit computational effort. In this paper we present an upscaling methodology for geothermal heat t...
متن کاملA Design Nomogram for a Horizontally-Fractured Geothermal Reservoir to determine the Production Temperature
T.C. Ekneligoda Abstract: The paper presents a graphical technique for the rapid analysis of the complex, nonlinear equation that describes the variation of the production temperature of a horizontally-fractured geothermal well. The nomogram presented for the evaluation of the production temperature incorporates the mass flow rate, fracture width, fracture length, number of conductive fractures...
متن کاملModeling Fluid Flow and Electrical Resistivity in Fractured Geothermal Reservoir Rocks
Phase change of pore fluid (boiling/condensing) in rock cores under conditions representative of geothermal reservoirs results in alterations of the electrical resistivity of the samples. In fractured samples, phase change can result in resistivity changes that are more than an order of magnitude greater than those measured in intact samples. These results suggest that electrical resistivity mo...
متن کاملApplication of Self-potential Measurements to Geothermal Reservoir Engineering: Characterization of Fractured Reservoirs
An “EKP-postprocessor” computational tool was developed several years ago to calculate space/time distributions of electrokinetic potentials resulting from histories of underground conditions (pressure, temperature, liquid-phase saturation, concentration of dissolved species, etc.) computed by unsteady multidimensional geothermal reservoir simulations (Ishido and Pritchett, 1996). Since that ti...
