- Circular processes serve the Clausius Rankine process.
- a cycle medium is usually raised by supplying heat energy and / or by increasing the pressure to a higher energy level, wherein the cycle medium from this increased energy level performs work on a power generating device, such as a turbine assembly. After performing work on the power generating device, the cycle medium is again at the energy level at which there is a supply of heat energy and / or an increase in pressure.
- a phase transition takes place on the cycle medium during the cycle, i.

- Ammonia as a cycle medium is particularly suitable if the maximum achievable temperature of the cycle medium due to the available geothermal energy not less than 90 0 C and 160 ° C does not exceed. In this temperature range, ammonia can already be passed through turbine stages, at least as wet steam (near the lower limit of approx. 90 ° C), converting enthalpy into electrical energy.
- an intermediate overheating is advantageously carried out, so that the ammonia, as a cycle medium, is passed through a first power generation device as superheated steam, is reheated after this passage, and subsequently swept is passed as a superheated steam through one of the first separate second power generating device.

- substantially pure water is not intended to exclude traces of other substances in the water as the cycle process medium, but a mixture, ie a two-substance system, as is known from the Kalina process, should be excluded.
- Water as a cycle process medium is particularly well suited if the maximum temperature of the cycle medium during the cycle does not exceed about 300 ° and does not fall below about 160 ° C. In this temperature range, water can be transferred as a cycle process medium at least in a wet steam phase (near the lower limit of about 160 ° C) or even in the state of slightly superheated steam (near the upper limit of about 305 ° C).
- the water can be condensed as a cycle process medium with conventional equipment, such as by hybrid cooling towers, at a condensation temperature of 20 ° C to 35 ° C, more preferably of about 33 ° C.
- the water can be condensed at an absolute condensation pressure of 50 mbar at a temperature of 32.88 ° C.
- the total efficiency of a geothermal power plant regardless of whether it works in the low temperature range with ammonia as Kreisrindmedium or in the above-mentioned higher temperature range with water as the cycle process medium, can be further advantageously increased by at least part of the cycle medium for heat generation, in particular for district heating extraction, before the end of the working process for power generation is taken from this and condensed.
- the heat received from the cycle process medium can be supplied as useful heat to buildings to heat them.
- Such removal of the cycle medium may occur, for example, after passing through a first power generating device when more than one power generating device is used.
