    Magnetotelluric Investigations Over Geothermal Provinces of India: an Overview
    (TÜBİTAK - Türkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Araştırma Kurumu, 2023) Prabhala, Bhaskhara Venkata Subba Rao; Pachigolla, Venkata Vijaya Kumar; Chandrasekharam, Dornadula; Deshmukh, Vasu; Singh, Ajay Kishore
    Magnetotelluric (MT) and audio-magnetotelluric (AMT) studies are sensitive to the geothermal fluids filling the faults and/ or fracture zones of the geothermal system. In India, MT/AMT studies have been carried out in NW Himalayas, central, eastern, and western India. In other areas, detailed MT/AMT studies need to be expedited. This review paper presents the art of geothermal exploration in India by using MT/AMT techniques and identifies potential zones that can be exploited for power generation and direct application. Reservoir characteristics, carbon emissions reduction methods, and levelised cost factor are also discussed. © TÜBİTAK.

    Thermodynamic Re-Assessment of a Geothermal Binary Power Plant Operated in a Moderate-Temperature Geothermal Field
    (Inderscience, 2023) Özcan, Zeynep; Gökçen Akkurt, Gülden
    An existing organic rankine cycle power plant which uses isobutane as working fluid is re-evaluated for different working fluids. The plant is first modelled by EES software; then the model is simulated for different working fluids obtaining heat transferred through the heat exchanger, net work output, energy and exergy efficiencies, and mass flowrate of the working fluid. Two parametric studies are conducted to evaluate the thermodynamic performance of the plant under a range of turbine inlet temperature (130°C–155°C) and geothermal resource temperature (152°C–161°C) for each working fluid. The study reveals that the highest cycle energy and exergy efficiencies are observed for R-152a at any geothermal resource temperature. R-152a resulted with 13.1% and 58.2% cycle energy and exergy efficiency, respectively at operation condition, whilst the lowest efficiency and net work output is calculated under n-butane presence.

    Effect of Non-Condensable Gases on Geothermal Power Plant Performance. Case Study: Kızıldere Geothermal Power Plant-Turkey
    (Inderscience Enterprises Ltd., 2008) Gökçen Akkurt, Gülden; Yıldırım, Nurdan
    Non-Condensable Gases (NCGs) are natural components of geothermal fluids, and they are a source of considerable capital and operating costs for power plants. The NCG content of geothermal steam varies over the world from almost zero to as much as 25% (wt). In this work, the influence of NCGs on the thermodynamic performance of geothermal power plants is analysed for various NCG content and turbine inlet temperatures. The results obtained can be useful on the feasibility study of single flash geothermal power plants. Depending on the NCG content of the field, the performance of the power plant can be determined roughly. © 2008, Inderscience Publishers.
