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.
The provided illustration shows the process of electricity production from geothermal energy.
Overall
, the production occurs at the geothermal power plant. There are five main components in this
process which are located both on the ground and underground.
At the beginning of the electricity generation, cold water
is pumped down through the 4.5 kilometers
pipe under the ground until it goes into the geothermal zone which is made of hot rocks. The place where cold Change the spelling
kilometres
water
is released from the pipe is called the injection well. After that, the temperature of the water
increased significantly. It turns into hot water
. In addition
, it will be pumped up to the condenser which is located on the ground. The point where hot water
is injected into the pipe is called the production well. Furthermore
, hot water
reforms into steam and it goes through the turbine. Moreover
, the turbine is powered by steam and it starts spinning. Since the turbine is connected to the generator, the generator is automatically powered and produces electricity.Submitted by Punpun on
