TOWER USING AIR FLOW GENERATED BY GEOTHERMAL HEAT FOR POWER GENERATION

摘要

Apparatus is provided having one or more SWEGS that may be configured to heat air in a draft power tower arrangement. In a closed loop, cold fluid may be pumped into the SWEGS and heated to a temperature in a range of, e.g., 100° C - 300° C, and hot fluid pumped out of the SWEGS. This fluid flows through a heating element (e.g., a radiator or specially designed heat exchanger) that heats the air in the draft power tower arrangement.
