Tracer Measurements during Long-term Circulation of the Rosemanowes Hdr Geothermal System
نویسنده
چکیده
Circulation experiments have been in operation for over two years in the artificially stimulated hot dry rock (HDR) doublet of the Camborne School of Mines (CSM) research facility in Cornwall, England. During that period tracer tests have been run at intervals using inert and reactive

Analyses of the Hijiori Long Term Circulation Test
Analyses have been completed to evaluate different operating strategies for the Hijiori Long Term Circulation Test (LTCT). To ensure that the Geocrack2D model used to represent the LTCT was valid, 1991-1996 testing at Hijiori was first simulated. After reasonable matches were obtained with the existing data, the model was used to predict behavior during the two year long LTCT. Five cases were a...
متن کاملCorrelating Quartz Dissolution Kinetics in Pure Water from 25" to 625°c
During the past 50 years, quartz dissolution kinetics and solubility measurements have been the subject of numerous investigations. Researchers have been motivated either because of their interest in understanding important natural geologic processes in the earth or because of a need to quantify dissolution rates for chemical processes above ground or for geothermal heat extraction underground....
متن کاملDesigning multi-well layout for enhanced geothermal system to better exploit hot dry rock geothermal energy
Heat extraction mode, e.g. well layout or arrangement of wells, of enhanced or engineered geothermal system (EGS) is crucial to its performance and directly affects its commercial viability. Assuming the subsurface target hot dry rock (HDR) has been well-fractured and the created heat reservoir can be treated as a homogeneous porous medium, we numerically simulate the long-term heat extraction ...
متن کاملBoiler Design Procedure Geothermal Boiler Design Procedure
A concept of "Fractal Fracture Mechanics" for HDR .(Hot Dry Rock) geothermal reservoir design has been developed as an extension of conventional rock fracture mechanics. It is suggested that this concept is successfully applicable to characterize and model subsurface fracture network in HDR geothermal reservoir. Furthermore, this modeling procedure makes it possible to evaluate the thermal ener...
متن کاملQuantitative Interpretation of Tracer Test Data
Geothermal reinjection is an important part of sustainable management of geothermal resources. Reinjection started out as a method of waste-water disposal, but is now also being used to counteract pressure draw-down and to extract more thermal energy from reservoir rocks. The possible cooling of production wells, or thermal breakthrough, is one of the main disadvantages associated with injectio...
