Effect of reservoir properties on the heat extraction performance in multi-well production EGS

A multi-well production enhanced geothermal system (EGS) with discrete fracture network is designed for heat extraction in this study. A thermal-hydraulic numerical simulation model is established, and the effect of reservoir properties on heat extraction is investigated. The results show that the growth rate of heat extraction efficiency will decrease as the mining time increases. The initial reservoir temperature has a positive correlation...
