Abstract As climate change accelerates due to fossil fuel use, geothermal energy emerges as an indispensable renewable solution 1. Hot dry rock (HDR) reservoirs, accounting for more than 90% of total geothermal resources 2, have gained wide attention worldwide for their abundant reserves, wide distribution, and carbon-free, stable, and efficient supply characteristics 3. While HDR geothermal energy offers significant potential, its development faces challenges, including the complex interaction between fluid flow, heat transfer, reactive solute transport, and the rock’s mechanical processes, referred to as the THMC coupling process 4. Cracks, ubiquitous in HDR geothermal reservoirs, exhibit… More >
