Mongolia has three(3) geothermal zones and eight(8) hydrogeothermal systems/regions that are, fold-fault platform/uplift zone, concave-largest subsidence zone, and mixed intermediate-transitional zone. Average temperature, heat flow, and geothermal gradient of hot springs in Arhangai located to fold-fault platform/uplift zone are $55.8^{\circ}C$, 60~110 mW/m2 and $35{\sim}50^{\circ}C/km$ respectively and those of Khentii situated in same zone are $80.5^{\circ}C$, 40~50 mW/m2, and $35{\sim}50^{\circ}C/km$ separately. Temperature of hydrothermal water at depth of 3,000 m is expected to be about $173{\sim}213^{\circ}C$ based on average geothermal gradient of $35{\sim}50^{\circ}C/km$. Among eight systems, Arhangai and Khentii located in A type hydrothermal system, Khovsgol in B type, Mongol Altai plateau in C type, and Over Arhangai in D type are the most feasible areas to develop geothermal power generation by Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS). Potential electric power generation by EGS is estimated about 2,760 kW at Tsenher, 1,752 kW at Tsagaan Sum, 2,928 kW at Khujir, 2,190 kW at Baga Shargaljuut, and 7,125 kW at Shargaljuut.

내 수문지열계 가운데 수주지열정(SCW)시스템을 합리적으로 설치이용할 수 있는 조건들은 심도별 지온증가율이 명확하고($2^{\circ}C/100m$심도), 기존의 지하수 열펌프가 필요로 하는 순환수의 유량에 비해 최소 $10{\sim}30%$의 중온의 심부지하수가 산출될 수 있어야 하며, 순환수를 공내로 재주입시 공내붕괴가 일어나지 않는 견고한 암석들이 존재 하여야 한다. 수주지열정의 1개공당 굴착심도는 평균 $400{\sim}500m$이며, 이로 부터 개발가능한 지열에너지는 공당 약 $30{\sim}40RT$ 규모인데 비해 1개 수직지중열교환기가 공급가능한 지열에너지는 $2{\sim}3RT$ 정도이다. 즉 수주지열정 1개공은 $10{\sim}15$개의 수직지중열교환기 역할을 한다. 따라서 이 방식은 수직루프 설치장소의 공간 문제를 해소할 수 있는 유일한 대안으로 인식되어, 현재 전국 각지에서 많은 수의 SCW들이 무분별 하게 비과학적으로 설치되고 있다. 이와 같이 해당지역 수문지열계의 수리 지질학적인 특성과 열적인 특성을 명확히 파악하지 않은 상태에서 수주지열정을 설계 시공하는 경우에 나타날 문제점들은 추후 합리적인 천부지열 개발 이용에 지대한 장애요인이 될 것이다. 따라서 본고는 국내 수문지열계에 적합한 수주지열정을 설계 하는데 있어 필요한 일종의 지침서를 제시하기 위해 작성되었다.

The validation of a groundwater source heat pump system installation site is estimated by bydrogeothermic model ing. The hydraulic characteristics of the aquifer system is evaluated from pumping and recovery tests. In addition, the temperature distribution by the pumping and the injection of groundwater, and water level fluctuations are simulated by numerical modeling. The total cooling and heating load for the building is designed as 120RT(refrigeration ton) and the ground water source heat pump system covers 50RT as a subsidiary system The scenario of heat pump operation is organized as pumping and inject ion of groundwater that is performed for 8 hours per day in cooling mode for 90 days during the summer season The heat transfer by the injected warm water is limited near the inject ion wells in the simulated temperature distribution. The reason is that the given operation time is too short to expect broad thermal diffusion in large volume of the aquifer in the simulation time The simulated groundwater level and temperature distribution can be used as important data to develope an energy effective pumping and injection well system. Also it will be very useful to evaluate the hydraulic capacity of a target groundwater reservoir.

To analyze the influence of various groundwater flow rates (specific discharge) on BHE system with balanced and unbalanced energy loads under assuming same initial temperature (15℃) of ground and groundwater, numerical modeling using FEFLOW was used for this study. When groundwater flow is increased from 1 × 10⁻⁷ to 4 × 10⁻⁷m/s under balanced energy load, the performance of BHE system is improved about 26.7% in summer and 22.7% at winter time in a single BHE case as well as about 12.0~18.6% in summer and 7.6~8.7% in winter time depending on the number of boreholes in the grid, their array type, and bore hole separation in multiple BHE system case. In other words, the performance of BHE system is improved due to lower avT in summer and higher avT in winter time when groundwater flow becomes larger. On the contrary it is decreased owing to higher avT in summer and lower avT in winter time when the numbers of BHEs in an array are increased, Geothermal plume created at down-gradient area by groundwater flow is relatively small in balanced load condition while quite large in unbalanced load condition. Groundwater flow enhances in general the thermal efficiency by transferring heat away from the BHEs. Therefore it is highly required to obtain and to use adequate informations on hydrogeologic characterristics (K, S, hydraulic gradient, seasonal variation of groundwater temperature and water level) along with integrating groundwater flow and also hydrogeothermal properties (thermal conductivity, seasonal variation of ground temperatures etc.) of the relevant area for achieving the optimal design of BHE system.

When a warm well located downgradient is captured by cold thermal plume originated from an upgradient cold well, the warm thermal plume is pushed further downgradient in the direction of groundwater flow. If groundwater flow direction is parallel to an aquifer thermal energy storage (ATES), the warm well can no longer be utilized as a heat source during the winter season because of the reduced heat capacity of the warm groundwater. It has been found that when the specific discharge is increased by $1{\times}10^{-7}m/s$ in this situation, the performance of ATES is decreased by approximately 2.9% in the warm thermal plume, and approximately 6.5% in the cold thermal plume. An increase of the specific discharge in a permeable hydrogeothermal system with a relatively large hydraulic gradient creates serious thermal interferences between warm and cold thermal plumes. Therefore, an area comprising a permeable aquifer system with large hydraulic gradient should not be used for ATES site. In case of ATES located perpendicular to groundwater flow, when the specific discharge is increased by $1{\times}10^{-7}m/s$ in the warm thermal plume, the performance of ATES is decreased by about 2.5%. This is 13.8% less reduced performance than the parallel case, indicating that an increase of groundwater flow tends to decrease the thermal interference between cold and warm wells. The system performance of ATES that is perpendicular to groundwater flow is much better than that of parallel ATES.

최근 급격한 기후변화가 세계적 또는 국지적으로 발생하고 있으며, 지구온난화에 대한 대책으로 $CO_2$ 저감 기술들이 중요한 해결책으로 여겨지고 있다. 이 기술들에 대한 한 방법으로서 대체에너지를 개발하고 있는 대부분의 국가에서 천부 지하 열에너지 저장 (UTES: underground thermal energy storage)은 신뢰성 있는 냉난방 기술로 적용되어 왔다. 천부의 토양이나 암반, 대수층내 지하수 및 지하공간내 저장된 유체 등의 열 에너지원을 이용하는 지열 시스템은 일반적으로 열에너지의 회복과 저장의 개념을 기반으로 한다. 아직 국내에서는 이러한 기술 개발이 기초적이지만 지속적인 연구들을 수행한다면 보다 친환경적이며 경제성 및 효율이 높은 시스템을 개발할 수 있을 것으로 본다. 국내 지반은 대수층이 전국적으로 분포하고 있으므로 수리지열학적 특성을 활용한 고효율의 시스템 개발이 용이하다. 그러나 UTES에 대한 이해 부족 및 제도적 문제들로 다양한 시스템이 개발되지 못하고 국내에는 90% 이상이 단편적인 폐회로형 지열시스템으로 보급되고 있다. 비효율적인 지열시스템의 보급 확산을 방지하기 위해서는 지반의 수리 지열학적 특성을 반영한 선진화된 UTES 시스템들을 개발할 필요가 있다. 개선된 시스템 보급을 위하여 국제적인 협력이 필수적이며, 지속적인 UTES 연구를 통하여 천부 지열시스템의 효율을 개선시킬 수 있다.
