The diagram below shows how geothermal energy is used to produce electricity. Summarise the Information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
This
diagram illustrates the process of producing electricity
by using geothermal energy.
Overall
, electricity
is produced by five steps, in which the first three steps are pouring cold water
into the injection well where the water
is stored and then
, flowing water
through the geothermal zone into the production well. The next two steps are pumping up hot water
into the condenser and changing it to steam and the last
step, generating electricity
.
First,
the cold water
is pumped down into the injection well, which is excavated about 4.5 km. After that, cold water
is crossed through the geothermal zone which is, in fact, hot rocks. Next step, the water
is flowed into the production well.
As the hot water
has been reached into the production well, it is pumped through the condenser, which here hot water
is turned into the steam. Finally
, the last
step is the turbine which is powered by steam and conveys energy into the generator, then
, the generator that has been powered by the turbine produces electricity
