Thermal‒hydraulic‒mechanical‒chemical coupling analysis of enhanced geothermal systems based on an embedded discrete fracture model

Enhanced geothermal system (EGS) is subject to the comprehensive effects of multiple physical fields during the long-term heat extraction process, including hydraulic (H), thermal (T), mechanical (M) and chemical (C) fields. The embedded discrete fracture model (EDFM) can effectively simulate the va...
