| Description/Abstract: | From applied technology geothermal committee meeting; Idaho Falls,
Idaho, USA (7 Aug 1973). A comparison of three simple geothermal power-
production systems shows that the flashed steam and the compound systems are
favored for use with high-temperature brines. The binary system becomes
economically competitive only when used on low-temperature brines (enthalpies
less than 350 Btu/lb). Geothermal power appears to be economically attractive
even when low-temperature brines are used. (auth) |
