Estimations of Fracture Surface Area Using Tracer and Temperature Data in Geothermal Fields

Reinjection is crucial for sustainable geothermal developments. In order to predict thermal performances due to cold-water injection, a method was developed to estimate effective fracture surface areas (i.e., heat transfer areas). Tracer response curves at production wells are analyzed to determine...
