  1. 1. Performance Evaluation of a High Temperature Borehole Thermal Energy Storage Under Influence of Groundwater Flow

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Max Hesselbrandt; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Recent years have seen a growing interest in large-scale high-temperature borehole thermal energy storage (HT-BTES) as a means to store industrial waste heat and solar energy between the seasons. A profound understanding and characterization of the thermal and hydraulic processes involved in such systems is required for the optimal design as well as for environmental assessments of the storage.

    Abstract : Geothermal energy is one of the oldest and most sustainable energy sources and has been used for thousands of years. The temperature of the ground at shallow depth is fairly constant, above the air temperature in winter and lower than the ambient temperature in summer. READ MORE

  3. 3. Geothermal Potential of Sub-Volcanic Intrusions in a Typical Caldera Setting

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Mineralogi, petrologi och tektonik

    Author : Einar Bessi Gestsson; [2018]
    Keywords : sub-volcanic intrusions; thermometry; numerical modeling; geothermal energy; magmaintrusioner; termometri; numerisk modell; geotermisk energi;

    Abstract : Sub-volcanic intrusions can form an extensive network of sills, dikes and other intrusion types that make up a plumbing system beneath volcanoes. Such intrusions are the heat source for high-temperature geothermal systems in volcanic areas and therefore, it is of great importance to study them in relation to geothermal exploration and production.

    Abstract : Several problems concern about energy are frequently discussed in recent decades, such as the shortage of traditional energy resource, the increase of energy price and the destruction of living environment by energy conversion. To solve these problems, sustainable development of energy become a preferential task all around the world. READ MORE

  5. 5. Possibilities of Geothermal Energy and its Competitiveness  with Other Energy Sources

    University essay from Avdelningen för bygg- energi- och miljöteknik

    Author : Farhan Hasan; [2014]
    Keywords : Geothermal energy; Green energy; Fossil fuel; Greenhouse Gas;

    Abstract : Geothermal Energy is one of the common talks at present. It has the potential to run long term and can provide base-load energy, at the same time it helps to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions. It is found almost everywhere on earth. READ MORE
