Fracture Transmissivity in Prospective Host Rocks for Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS)

Fracture Transmissivity in Prospective Host Rocks for Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS)

We experimentally determined the hydraulic properties of fractures within various rock types, focusing on a variety of Variscan rocks. Flow-through experiments were performed on slate, graywacke, quartzite, granite, natural fault gouge, and claystone samples containing an artificial fracture with a...
