| Abstract | Since Pratt & Whitney Power Systems acquired a majority stake in Turboden in 2009, many hot sedimentary aquifer geothermal power applications across the world have been assessed. A variety of power configurations have subsequently been developed and costed that have relevance for the future of the Australian geothermal industry. This paper summarises the key considerations made in designing systems, as well as factors that affect overall performance. |
