Synopsis

Geothermal Energy Systems provides design and analysis methodologies by using exergy and enhanced exergy tools (covering exergoenvironmental, exergoeconomic, exergetic life cycle assessment, etc.), environmental impact assessment models, and sustainability models and approaches. In addition to presenting newly developed advanced and integrated systems for multigenerational purposes, the book discusses newly developed environmental impact assessment and sustainability evaluation methods and methodologies. With case studies for integrated geothermal energy sources for multigenerational aims, engineers can design and develop new geothermal integrated systems for various applications and discover the main advantages of design choices, system analysis, assessment and development of advanced geothermal power systems.

• Explains the ability of geothermal energy power systems to decrease global warming
• Discusses sustainable development strategies for using geothermal energy sources
• Provides new design conditions for geothermal energy sources-based district energy systems

From the Back Cover

Geothermal Energy Systems is an analysis of conceptual approaches to geothermal energy systems for different applications, with clear and well-presented fundamentals related to the geothermal energy sources, systems and components.

This book provides design and analysis methodologies by using exergy and enhanced exergy tools (covering exergoenvironmental, exergoeconomic, exergetic life cycle assessment, etc.), environmental impact assessment models, sustainability models and approaches, and by presenting newly developed advanced and integrated systems for multigenerational purposes. These systems range from power generation to hydrogen and ammonia production and from stand-alone applications to district energy applications. The book discusses the newly developed environmental impact assessment and sustainability evaluation methods and methodologies.

With case studies for integrated geothermal energy sources for multigenerational aims, engineers can design and develop new geothermal integrated systems for various applications and discover the main advantages of design choices, system analysis, assessment and development of advanced geothermal power systems.
