Dynamic Modeling and Simulation of Deep Geothermal Electric Submersible Pumping Systems

Deep geothermal energy systems employ electric submersible pumps (ESPs) in order to lift geothermal fluid from the production well to the surface. However, rough downhole conditions and high flow rates impose heavy strain on the components, leading to frequent failures of the pump system. As downhol...
