Abstract

In high-temperature geothermal fields, interpretation of the dynamic two-phase state inside the production wells under different wellhead conditions are important to effectively use the geothermal heat source. Therefore, the corresponding wellbore models must have the capability to simulate transient flow and energy state in geothermal wellbores, as well as advective and conductive heat and mass interactions with surrounding formation.
