Parallel Geothermal Numerical Model with Fractures and Multi-Branch Wells

To answer the need for an efficient and robust geothermal simulation tool going beyond existing code capabilities in terms of geological and physical complexity, we have started to develop a parallel geothermal simulator based on unstructured meshes. The model takes into account complex geology incl...
