A Thermal-Hydraulic-Mechanical Coupling Study of Heat Extraction from the Geothermal Reservoir with a Discrete Fracture Network
The complex thermal-hydraulic-mechanical (THM) coupling is the key issue to the energy extraction from a geothermal reservoir, where fractures are the main channels for fluid circulation and heat transfer. However, the effects of matrix deformation-induced aperture variation and fracture roughness o...
