GEOTHERMAL POWER GENERATING METHOD AND GEOTHERMAL POWER GENERATING FACILITY

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a geothermal power generating method of high power generating efficiency and its facility. SOLUTION: A thermal power generating module 21 is used as a heat-electricity converting device. The heating side of the module 21 is heated by the ground heat of a high temperature rock mass layer 1, while the cooling side of the module 21 is cooled by a coolant 7 circulating in a cooling tower 23. The difference in temperature between the ground heat and the coolant generates electric power directly. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
