“…These publications also contain the interpretations of geothermic data in the form of the terrestrial heat flow density distribution, temperature distribution maps both at various depth levels and on cross sections within the upper parts of the upper crust. The Ukrainian heat flow density and temperature distribution data were measured and evaluated in Kutas and Gordienko (1971), Buryanov et al (1985), Gordienko et al (2002), Gordienko et al (2004) and recently in Kutas (2014). The set of the geothermal data of the Outer Carpathians area is completed by results from its Polish part (Plewa et al, 1992;Gordienko and Zavgorodnyaya, 1996;Karwasiecka and Bruszewska, 1997;Wróblewska, 2007;Górecki, 2013).…”

“…For both the interpretation of measured data in boreholes and geothermic models of local structures, we used in preference the existing thermal conductivity parameters and heat productions determined from core samples. Otherwise we utilized the mean values for the lithological (eventually also stratigraphic) aggregates of rock complexes (Vaňková et al, 1979;Král et al, 1985;Jančí and Král, 1986;Husák, 1986;Jančí and Král, 1990;Jančí, 1992;Majcin, 1993;Kutas and Gordienko, 1971;Kutas et al, 1989;Grytsik et al, 2007;Kutas, 2014).…”

“…From geothermal measurements and from newest outcomes of geophysical methods we can conclude that some inner parts of the Outer Carpathian Flysch also have sufficiently interesting thermal conditions (heat flow density, temperature distributions with depth) for utilization of the geothermal energy (Franko et al, 1986; Majcin et al, 2014). The thermal activity of the Outer Carpathian units rapidly decreases in the direction toward the European Platform (Gordienko and Zavgorodnyaya, 1996;Gordienko et al, 2004;Kutas, 2014). The Carpathian geological units characterized by relatively low thermal activity extend to the studied area both from the west (Central and Inner Western Carpathian units) and from the east (Inner Eastern Carpathian units) (Franko et al, 1995;Kutas, 2014).…”

“…The central part of the area is formed by the Transcarpathian depression unit which represents the most promising region for exploitation of geothermal energy in both Slovakia and Ukraine. This unit is the thermally most active area in both mentioned countries (Král et al, 1985;Franko et al, 1986;Franko et al, 1995;Gordienko et al, 2004;Kutas. 2014).…”

Our contribution aims to determine the thermal conditions for the geothermal energy utilization for the electric energy production within the region of study.…”

Abstract:The contribution presents the results acquired both by direct cognitive geothermic methods and by modelling approaches of the lithosphere thermal state in the region of the Transcarpathian depression and surrounding units. The activities were aimed at the determination of the temperature field distribution and heat flow density distribution in the upper parts of the Earth's crust within the studied area. Primary new terrestrial heat flow density map was constructed from values determined for boreholes, from their interpretations and from newest outcomes of geothermal modelling methods based on steady-state and transient approaches, and also from other recently gained geophysical and geological knowledge. Thereafter we constructed the maps of temperature field distribution for selected depth levels of up to 5000 m below the surface. For the construction we have used measured borehole temperature data, the interpolation and extrapolation methods, and the modelling results of the refraction effects and of the influences of source type anomalies. New maps and other geothermic data served for the determination of depths with rock temperatures suitable for energy utilization namely production of electric energy minimally by the binary cycles. Consequently the thermal conditions were used to identify the most perspective areas for geothermal energy exploitation in the region under study.

Abstract:The contribution presents the results of geothermic interpretation approaches applied to measured geothermal data and is focused to determination of the thermal conditions both for application of classic hydrothermal sources exploitation and specialized EGS technologies for electricity production in the region of Slovakia and adjacent areas. Primarily, the heat flow density data and the temperature distribution measurements in boreholes were interpreted by classic 1D interpolation and extrapolation methods. New terrestrial heat flow density map for the studied area was constructed using the values determined in boreholes, their interpretations, the newest outcomes of geothermal modelling methods based both on steady-state and transient heat transfer approaches, and on other recently gained geoscientific knowledge. Thereafter, we constructed the maps of temperature field distribution for selected depth levels up to 6000 m below the surface and the final map of the isothermal surface depths for the reservoir temperature of 160• C. This final map serves for the appraisal of the effective application of the binary cycle power plant technology in Slovakia in terms of thermal conditions.
