Department: | Faculty 3 - Mechanical Engineering, Electrical and Energy Systems |
Responsible Staff Member: |
|
Language of Teaching / Examination: | English |
Duration: | 1 semester |
Frequency of Offer: | Every winter semester |
Credits: | 4 |
Learning Outcome: | Students will get a deeper understanding the exploration thermal energy reservoirs or depth section area to sequestrate CO2 and the necessary technology for these proceses |
Contents: | The lecture encounters basic knowledge for the geo-energetic utilization of underground reservoirs. The lecture helps to understand the basic geology needed for the exploration of geothermal energy reservoirs or of the depth sections to sequestrate CO2 and shows up the practice to make access to these reservoirs by drilling and the engineering of the reservoir by enhancing methods. The lecture describes the technology to make use of the Earth’s heat for direct use, power, and/or chill and gives boundary conditions for its economic and environmental utilization. Main chapters: 1) Exploration with Reservoir Definition and Exploration Methods, 2) Development with Drilling into the interesting Reservoirs, 3) Reservoir Engineering incl. Enhancing Methods and Reservoirs in Operation, 4) Process Engineering with Direct Use and Conversion of Earth’s Heat into Chill or Power, Economics and Environmental Impact and specific aspects of Carbon capture. |
