tailieunhanh - Numerical modeling of fluid flow and heat transfer in Kurşunlu geothermal field-KGF (Salihli, Manisa/Turkey)

Nowadays, the need for energy is increasing more and more. It is more difficult to acquire new resources in various fields than to preserve existing energy resources. Although Turkey is a very rich state in terms of various energy resources, misuse of these resources can even lead to conflicts that may occur between the states in forthcoming years. In today’s economic conditions, we can only protect our energy resources with the correct way of management. In this context, it is very important to reveal the mechanisms that make up the geothermal systems, which are very common in Western Anatolia. | Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences Turkish J Earth Sci 2021 30 1096-1111 http earth TÜBİTAK Research Article doi yer-2106-12 Numerical modeling of fluid flow and heat transfer in Kurşunlu geothermal field-KGF Salihli Manisa Turkey Toygar AKAR Ünsal GEMİCİ Melis SOMAY-ALTAŞ Gültekin TARCAN Department of Geological Engineering Dokuz Eylül University İzmir Turkey Received Accepted Published Online Final Version Abstract Nowadays the need for energy is increasing more and more. It is more difficult to acquire new resources in various fields than to preserve existing energy resources. Although Turkey is a very rich state in terms of various energy resources misuse of these resources can even lead to conflicts that may occur between the states in forthcoming years. In today s economic conditions we can only protect our energy resources with the correct way of management. In this context it is very important to reveal the mechanisms that make up the geothermal systems which are very common in Western Anatolia. In this study how the fluid circulation mechanism in the geothermal system takes place and under which conditions the infiltrating water is heated in the Kurşunlu geothermal field KGF have been examined. FEFLOW software was used in numerical modeling. Fluid flow and heat transfer equations are solved on a two- dimensional vertical model using FEFLOW software. A variable-width finite element mesh consisting of 55 590 elements was created in this scope. Since triangular meshes are preferred in vertical models the mesh produced according to the Delaunay method was used. All lateral boundaries are designed as a no-flow boundary condition. For boundary conditions hydraulic heads on top of the model and temperature values at both the top and bottom of the model are defined. Additionally initial values were produced for the entire Kurşunlu geothermal system under steady-state conditions and a transient model
