摘要：
Geothermal energy is a fully developed worldwide source of clean power. However, a considerable fraction of the energy is wasted by throttling the pressure of the steam and brine flow from the well to make low pressure steam. A two-phase turbine (Biphase turbine) has been applied to geothermal wells to generate power from this previously wasted energy. For some resources 30 to 40% additional power may be generated from a given well. The results from operation of several geothermal Biphase turbines are presented. Comparisons of measured performance to that predicted by an existing design code are provided. Estimates of the added power generation for an existing geothermal field is given.
