The effect of ambient temperature fluctuation on the performance of geothermal power plants
Seasonal and diurnal temperature fluctuations have significant effects on cooling water temperature and on the condenser temperature. The power produced by plants that utilise a low temperature resources, such as geothermal units, are more susceptible to ambient temperature fluctuations than conventional power plants. An exergy analysis was performed to evaluate the effect of ambient temperature ...

Performance assessment of an integrated absorption cooling–hydrogen liquefaction system using geothermal energy
An integrated geothermal based triple effect absorption cooling and Linde–Hampson system for hydrogen gas liquefaction is proposed and analysed thermodynamically. The effect of various operating conditions and parameters on the system performance is studied. The results show that the mass of hydrogen gas pre–cooled by the absorption system per unit mass flow rate of geothermal water flowing ...

Investigation of a hybrid solar and geothermal driven absorption cooling system for district applications
In this paper, a new hybrid geothermal and solar driven absorption cooling system (ACS) is proposed for low–temperature district energy applications. Two approaches are proposed in this study, namely: a) a new model for determining the specific entropy values of LiBr–water solution and (b) two new energetic and exergetic parameters, namely geothermal contribution index and solar contribution ...

Striving For Perfection: Flow Energy Partnership Improves Geothermal Energy Production
Since the early twentieth century, geothermal energy has been used to produce electricity. In the 1980’s and 90’s, rapid expansion in the demand for geothermal energy put pressure on suppliers to reduce costs and increase efficiencies. Now geothermal energy production is becoming a common practice around the globe. One of the largest energy companies in Turkey is blazing the trail ...

Strada Global: Why we need to rethink the map on Geothermal
For decades, everything we’ve known about geothermal potential has been modelled on a map that shows available resources in some parts of the world, but not others. We need to change that mindset and make people aware that we’re standing on vast resources of geothermal heat, wherever we are in the world. When it comes to geothermal, there are hurdles in people’s minds. They ...
