The re-utilization and activation of the abandon geothermal well was an economic concept for increasing the geothermal potential. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of CO2 enhanced geothermal systems (CO2-EGS) based on the geothermal well HCL-2 and JY-1 and to estimate their capacity. A porous-fracture thermal-hydraulic model combined the fracture network, porous heat transfer model and Darcy's Law was established by finite element analysis. The temperature variation of the reservoir under different injected conditions and the total geothermal capacity of CO2-EGS are discussed. The results show that the higher the mass flow rate of injection, the higher the outer temperature of the production well, the higher the total EGS capacity. The temperature difference of the production well decreased as the injected mass flow rate increased. The reservoir temperature distribution could be affected by the injected fluid temperature slightly. In this study, the temperature of the production wellhead of CO2-EGS increased about 21.5% when the injected mass flow rate was from 0.0005 ton/hr to 4 ton/hr. The specific capacity increased about 11.8%. In future, this study can be combined with further in-situ tracer test data to estimate the capacity realistically, which can contribute to the activation of the abandon geothermal wells. |
