CONT

Un modèle caractéristique de potentiel énergétique pour un puits humide, lorsqu'il alimente des turbines droites à condensation et à contre-pression, est illustré [...]. Faire un meilleur vide améliorerait le potentiel énergétique du forage lors de l'alimentation de turbines [droites] à condensation, mais le gain ne serait pas forcément valable économiquement à cause de l'énergie importante nécessitée pour l'aspiration de gaz et le besoin d'installations de refroidissement plus importantes.
