Question
(a)In geothermal aquifer, explain the process of energy extraction from twin
borehole system.
(b)A geothermal aquifer at a temperature of 90 o C is 18 m thick and 120 m wide. The density, specific heat, and permeability are 2.6x10 3 kg/m3, 1000j/kg.C and 2x10 -9 s-m 3 /kg. In order to produce a power of 0.8 MW, estimate the volume flow rate and pressure drop required for a borehole separation of 800 m. The inlet temperature of cold water is 15 o C.
