Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Bayesian Uncertainty Quantification in Temperature Simulation of Borehole Heat Exchanger Fields for Geothermal Energy Supply(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2025) Mohammadi, Hesam Soltan; Ringel, Lisa Maria; Bott, Christoph; Erol, Selcuk; Bayer, PeterAccurate temperature prediction is crucial for optimizing the performance of borehole heat exchanger (BHE) fields. This study introduces an efficient Bayesian approach for improving the forecast of temperature changes in the ground caused by the operation of BHEs. The framework addresses the complexities of multi-layer subsurface structures and groundwater flow. By utilizing an affine invariant ensemble sampler, the framework estimates the distribution of key parameters, including heat extraction rate, thermal conductivity, and Darcy velocity. Validation of the proposed methodology is conducted through a synthetic case involving four active and one inactive BHE over five years, using monthly temperature changes around BHEs from a detailed numerical model as a reference. The moving finite line source model with anisotropy is employed as the forward model for efficient temperature approximations. Applying the proposed methodology at a monthly resolution for less than three years reduces uncertainty in long-term predictions by over 90%. Additionally, it enhances the applicability of the employed analytical forward model in real field conditions. Thus, this advancement offers a robust tool for stochastic prediction of thermal behavior and decision-making in BHE systems, particularly in scenarios with complex subsurface conditions and limited prior knowledge.Article Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 17Experimental Study and Kinetic Modeling of High Temperature and Pressure Co2 Mineralization(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Berndsen, Maximilian; Erol, Selcuk; Akin, Taylan; Akin, Serhat; Nardini, Isabella; Immenhauser, Adrian; Nehler, MathiasThe potential for in-situ CO2 sequestration was analyzed experimentally for one basaltic hyaloclastite sample from the Nesjavellir geothermal reservoir in Iceland and three metasedimentary rock samples from the K & imath;z & imath;ldere geothermal field in Turkey. Based on batch reaction experiments, this paper demonstrates the interaction between a CO2 gas-charged fluid and rock samples from these reservoirs. The experiments were conducted at 260 degrees C and 0.8 MPa, and 105 degrees C and 17 MPa for the basaltic and metasedimentary rocks, respectively. The experimental results indicate that CO2 sequestration within the glassy basaltic rocks is hampered by zeolite, chlorite, and anhydrite, which compete with carbonate minerals to uptake divalent cations at the P-T conditions applied. In contrast, the carbonation process for the metasedimentary rocks is inhibited by their mineralogical composition. Generally, these rocks are less reactive and provide an insufficient supply of divalent cations. The batch reactor experiments were numerically simulated with the PHREEQC geochemical modeling program. The simulations indicate that CO2 sequestration is feasible at the tested P-T conditions, provided that silicate and SO4 mineralization is suppressed for the basaltic rocks and that there is an effective source of divalent cations for the metasedimentary rocks.
