The diagram below shows how geothermal energy is used to produce electricity. Summaraise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant
The flow chart given shows the process of producing electricity from geothermal energy.
Overall
, the manufacturing process is mostly machine operated, with a total of 5 steps, initiating with the storage of cold water
and culminating with the generating of electricity. The system can be divided into 3 stages: preparation, processing and generating.
Firstly
, at the beginning of the workflow, stored cold water
is pumped 4,5 kilometres down to the injection well underground. Under the well, the water
then
goes through the geothermal zone, also
known as hot rocks and is moved to the production well subsequently
. After that, the water
, which is now heated, is pumped up the condenser, in which steam is produced. Next,
the steam goes through a steam-powered turbine. In the following step, it goes through the generator that runs on energy from the turbine. The result of the whole sequence is electricity, marking the end of the process.Submitted by minhlieu.hnd on
