Vapour-Dominated Geothermal Power Plant | Energy Management

The energy conversion in geothermal power plants is based on the Rankine cycle. The basic layout and T-s diagram for a vapour-dominated geothermal power plant are shown in Fig. 7.1 and 7.2 respectively. These systems are most suitable for electricity generation with lowest cost and the least number of serious problems. But these are the rarest form of geothermal systems. [...]
