THERMODYNAMIC CYCLE OPTIMIZATION IN THE GEOTHERMAL ENERGY PRODUCTION
Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2004, Vol 16, Issue 1
Abstract
Optimization of geothermal energy production process means the minimization of all energy losses from the reservoir conditions to the user. As the available energy is being utilized mostly in the wellbore and in the surface equipment, process optimization requires scientifc access including the extraction technology parameters.Specifc energy on the geothermal wellhead is calculated for two possible cases. The frst embraces only geothermal water production, while the other takes into account the saturated steam production as well. Each of these working conditions defnes unambiguously designed pressure on the wellhead.The steam and water energy ratio, in function of predicted sink temperature for reinjection of geothermal water, points out the possibilities for commercialization of reservoir Velika Ciglena.
