The basic component of two-circuit geothermal systems is the heat exchanger. When used in geothermal power systems. conventional shell-and-tube and plate heat exchangers cause problems related to the cleaning of the latter from salt-deposition and corrosion products. Their lifetime does not exceed. as a rule. 1 year. To utilize the …
