Combined Effects of Thermal Perturbation and In-situ Stress on Heat Transfer in Fractured Geothermal Reservoirs

Zhixue Sun et al.

Summary: A new fully coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical model was developed to study the combined effects of thermal perturbation and in-situ stress on heat transfer in two-dimensional fractured rocks. The study identified underlying mechanisms and revealed significant impacts of in-situ stress on fracture apertures and flow rates, affecting heat transfer predictions. The results emphasize the importance of considering in-situ stress effects for accurate assessments of heat extraction efficiency in geothermal reservoirs.
