Analyzes of thermal characteristics of a hydrothermal coaxial closed-loop geothermal system in a horizontal well

Gaosheng Wang et al.

Summary: This study focuses on developing a geothermal system using a horizontal-well to exploit deep hydrothermal resources, considering the complex convection process in the reservoir. The results show that forced convection can greatly enhance heat transfer, emphasizing the importance of factors such as horizontal length, permeability, and reverse circulation in improving heat extraction. Compared to vertical well systems, horizontal-well systems can fully extract heat stored in the reservoir, providing valuable insights for scientific research and engineering applications.

Effect of formation water salinity on interfacial tension of reservoir fluids

Bastian Sauerer et al.

Summary: The study systematically investigates the influence of salinity on interfacial tension (IFT) and finds that complex brine systems have a stronger effect on IFT than individual single salt brine systems. Additive correction factors can be derived for different brine systems, providing insight into the impact of different components on IFT.
