Forschungsförderungsprojekt
In Hungary and adjacent areas there are some of the largest geothermal energy resources available in Europe from subsurface hot water reservoirs. Actually, utilization of geothermal energy, mainly for balneological purposes (thermal and medicinal bathing), has a long-standing tradition in the region, nevertheless, putting to use the extractable heat in a technical and economical optimum manner, and integrating the various energy flows (heating, cooling, vitiated air, etc.) in the application system as well as returning the cooled effluent back to the reservoir, has not found general acceptance to date. In the course of a technical feasibility study it shall be dealt with the problem, and, by example of the spa of Sárvár in Hungary, demonstrated also, in which way the given mass and energy flows need to be interconnected in order to achieve an optimum energy yield and high enough financial savings, always with an eye on the sustainability of the available resources.
