Description
Summary:Under the framework of the national “double carbon” strategy, the efficient development and utilization of clean energy have become a focal point across various industries. Middle and deep hydrothermal geothermal resources, characterized by their abundant reserves and environmentally friendly attributes, represent a significant clean energy source. Recent trends have shown a shift from a distributed development model to a cluster development model for geothermal resources, offering advantages in terms of economy, stability, risk management, and scalability. However, the development mode, well patterns, and well spacing, key parameters in cluster development, are still under investigation due to their significant impact on the process. There is an urgent need to conduct research on these mechanisms and optimize the key parameters. In this study, the HTC geothermal field serves as the subject for our analysis. We employ numerical simulation technology to integrate the underground temperature field, pressure field, and water flow field into a comprehensive mathematical model. This model helps analyze the effects of various development modes and patterns, as well as the spacing of mining and irrigation wells, thereby identifying optimal parameters that can guide field production. Practice has demonstrated that this approach effectively ensures the stable operation of geothermal development projects and enhances their economic benefits.
