Calculated example
The presenter will go through a calculated
example to show methods used for basic
engineering within steam gathering system
design. The example taken will be connected
to the special conditions encountered in
geothermal energy.
Example
Example for1200 kJ/kg well enthalpy
40-50C condensing temperature
Back pressure
Objective
Maximize the power production
Assumptions
Assume that we know the reservoir enthalpy
We know the condenser temperature
Assume that separation pressure does not
influence the well flow
Example, condensing unit
Condensing, 50C
Condensing, 40C
Example, condensing unit
The maximum power will be 12,4 MW
