This book focuses on numerical modeling of deep hydrothermal and
petrothermal systems in fractured georeservoirs for utilization in
Geothermal Energy applications. The authors explain the particular
challenges and approaches to modeling heat transport and
high-throughput flow in multiply fractured porous rock formations.
In order to help readers gain a system-level understanding of the
necessary analysis, the authors include detailed examples of
growing complexity as the techniques explained in the text are
introduced. The coverage culminates with the fully-coupled analysis
of real deep geothermal test-sites located in Germany and France.
This introduction to geothermal modeling deals with flow and heat
transport processes in porous and fractured media related to
geothermal energy applications. Following background coverage of
geothermal resources and utilization in several countries, the
basics of continuum mechanics for heat transport processes, as well
as numerical methods for solving underlying governing equations are
discussed. This examination forms the theoretical basis for five
included step-by-step OpenGeoSys exercises, highlighting the most
important computational areas within geothermal resource
utilization, including heat diffusion, heat advection in porous and
fractured media, and heat convection. The book concludes with an
outlook on practical follow-up contributions investigating the
numerical simulation of shallow and deep geothermal systems.
