Modeling study of deep direct use geothermal on the West Virginia university campus-morgantown, WV

Abstract

The heat exchange between fracture and matrix is dominated by the matrix volume  Reservoir heterogeneity has a large impact on injection overpressure and thermal breakthrough curves.  Horizontal well scenario is a more robust design especially for a heterogeneous field  Key parameters to reduce prediction uncertainty are correlation length, average permeability and porosity

Data–driven analysis of Romania's renewable energy landscape and investment uncertainties

“…Due to the large amount of data that can be processed, Monte Carlo simulation is used in various fields, including energy. In the US, Zhang, Garapati and Doughty applied this numerical simulation method to the study of geothermal exploration [ 9 ]. In Japan, Togashi built a model to predict the energy consumption of a building using the Monte Carlo method [ 10 ].…”
