| Abstract |
Although most of the activity to date in use of geothermal resources has been related to electricity their direct use process heating will assume more importance in future. involve the large- scale use of geothermal fluids in heat exchangers. This will A joint project team has been set up to investigate the problems of heat transfer fran geothermal fluids in surface heat exchanges. Thermal and hydraulic design data is available for single- phase fluids. It w a s considered necessary to supplement this with experimental data particularly in three areas: |
