Il s’agit alors de créer artificiellement des réservoirs géothermiques en profondeur. La technique? Fragmenter en profondeur des roches chaudes par injection d’eau sous pression et créer un échangeur thermique profond via le forage de plusieurs puits. Une boucle est alors établie et l'eau, réchauffée au contact des roches chaudes, cède son énergie à une unité de surface produisant de l'électricité, via une turbine. 2, record 4, French, - g%C3%A9othermie%20profonde

When superheated steam expands in a turbine it drops in pressure, loses its superheat, and becomes wet ... Consequently, this steam is led out of the turbine after it has passed through the early high-pressure stages. It is then piped back to a reheater, a device similar in design and placement to a superheater, where it is reheated to approximately the original superheat temperature. From the reheater, the steam enters the turbine at a succeeding stage and passes through the remainder of the turbine. It exhausts at low pressure and is condensed into water for recirculation to the boiler. 1, record 6, English, - reheater

La turbine, entraînée par la détente de la vapeur du circuit secondaire, est composée d’un corps haute pression(HP) et de plusieurs corps basse pression(BP). L'alternateur fournit le courant électrique, qui est dirigé sur le réseau de transport. Quand on parle d’une centrale «900 mégawatts»(MW) ou de «1300 MW», on se réfère à la puissance électrique disponible en sortie de l'alternateur. 3, record 13, French, - groupe%20turbo%2Dalternateur
