Abstract

A system for geothermal heating comprising: a forced geothermal circuit in communication with a well bore; a well bore heat exchanger; a multilateral channel; a channel casing design; and a pump. A method for geothermal heating comprising: passing a fluid into a thermal circulation system; passing the fluid into a well bore heat exchanger; heating the fluid; passing the heated fluid through a multilateral channel comprising a multilateral channel design casing; and passing a reservoir fluid and the fluid into a heat exchanger. A method for a loop recovery process comprising: passing a circulation fluid into a system for geothermal heating; passing the circulation fluid into a well bore heat exchanger; heating the circulation fluid; passing the heated circulation fluid out of the system for geothermal heating; passing the heated circulation fluid through a heat exchanger of an organic Rankine cycle; and cooling the circulation fluid.

Claims (12)

1 . A system for geothermal heating, the system comprising:

a forced geothermal circuit in communication with a well bore;

a well bore gyroid heat exchanger; a multilateral channel

a thermosiphon generator;

said thermosiphon generator disposed below said well bore gyroid heat exchanger.

2 . The system of claim 1 further comprising a circulation fluid.

3 . The system of claim 2 wherein the circulation fluid comprises brine.

4 . The system of claim 2 wherein the circulation fluid comprises carbon dioxide.

5 . The system of claim 1 wherein the system for geothermal heating is in communication with an organic Rankine cycle.

6 . The system of claim 1 further comprising a plurality of multilateral channels.

7 . The system of claim 1 further comprising a triple propagating minimal structure.

8 . The system of claim 1 wherein said thermosiphon generator is configured for reservoir drawdown and cross flow.
