      abstract = {Demonstrates how to model flow and heat transport  processes in porous and fractured media related to  geothermal energy applications Provides theoretical  scientific background and suggestions for future  applications Includes five step-by-step OpenGeoSys  exercises, highlighting the most important geothermal  computational areas, including heat diffusion, heat  advection in porous and fractured media, and heat  convection This introduction to geothermal modeling deals  with flow and heat transport processes in porous and  fractured media related to geothermal energy applications.  Following background coverage of geothermal resources and  utilization in several countries, the basics of continuum  mechanics for heat transport processes, as well as  numerical methods for solving underlying governing  equations are discussed. This examination forms the  theoretical basis for five included step-by-step OpenGeoSys  exercises, highlighting the most important computational  areas within geothermal resource utilization, including  heat diffusion, heat advection in porous and fractured  media, and heat convection. The book concludes with an  outlook on practical follow-up contributions investigating  the numerical simulation of shallow and deep geothermal  systems.},
