A comprehensive review on mechanical responses of granite in enhanced geothermal systems (EGSs)

Zhennan Zhu et al.

Summary: This research analyzed and determined the changes in the mechanical characteristics of granites after various thermal shocks through a comprehensive review of research. The change mechanisms of the mechanical responses of granites after various thermal shocks were revealed by microstructural observations. The macroscale deterioration of the mechanical parameters of various granites after thermal shocks is closely associated with the initiation, development, and coalescence of microcracks.

Effect of water-cooling shock on fracture initiation and morphology of high-temperature granite: Application of hydraulic fracturing to enhanced geothermal systems

Yi Xue et al.

Summary: Deep geothermal energy exploitation involves using an enhanced geothermal system (EGS) to extract heat from hot dry rock (HDR) through hydraulic fracturing technology. A thermal-hydraulic-mechanical coupling model is proposed to study the effects of water-cooling shock on fracture initiation and morphology in HDR hydraulic fracturing. The results show that water-cooling shock can significantly reduce fracture initiation pressure, induce more secondary fractures, and form complex fracture networks, with initial rock temperature and heat transfer coefficient affecting fracture morphology.

Thermal-shock-induced surface softening and conductivity evolution of hydraulic fracture in enhanced geothermal system

Ning Li et al.

Summary: The study shows that increasing thermal treatment temperature leads to a decrease in hardness and Young's modulus of fracture surface, affecting fracture conductivity. For propped fractures, higher thermal treatment temperature results in lower fracture conductivity, while for self-propped fractures, the thermal shock effect may enhance or reduce conductivity.

Thermoplastic cohesive fracturing model of thermally-treated granite

Yuekun Xing et al.

Summary: This study proposed a thermoplastic cohesive fracturing model for thermally-treated granite, incorporating temperature-dependent softening rule and completely coupled stress-strain-temperature constitutive relation. The model was validated with experimental data, showing significant temperature-dependent properties in granite fracturing mechanisms. The findings contribute to a better understanding of the fracturing behavior of granite under temperature-dependent conditions.

Well placement optimization for large-scale geothermal energy exploitation considering nature hydro-thermal processes in the Gonghe Basin, China

Siyu Zhang et al.

Summary: The study optimized well placement in doublet well systems in the Gonghe Basin, China, considering the natural hydro-thermal flow system. Intensive well placement was found to be more effective than extensive well placement, resulting in higher outflow temperatures and lower groundwater level changes. This approach provides important insights for large-scale geothermal exploitation in other geothermal fields.

Experimental Investigation on Physical and Mechanical Properties of Granite Subjected to Cyclic Heating and Liquid Nitrogen Cooling

Guan Rong et al.

Summary: Cyclic liquid nitrogen fracturing can potentially enhance geothermal energy exploitation. This study demonstrated that increasing the number of cycles in heating-cooling experiments worsens the internal structural damage of granite, with the damage being most prominent in the initial cycles.

Ning Li et al.

Summary: This study experimentally analyzed the effects of thermal shock on the fracture morphology and injection pressure curve in hydraulic fracturing of hot dry rock. Results showed the formation of a single main hydraulic fracture before 300 degrees C, followed by the potential creation of multiple branching fractures. Additionally, the height difference and tortuosity of the hydraulic fracture surface increased with higher thermal treatment temperatures.
