Transported Geothermal Energy Technoeconomic Screening Tool - Calculation Engine

This calculation engine estimates technoeconomic feasibility for transported geothermal energy projects. The TGE screening tool (geotool.exe) takes input from input file (input.txt), and list results into output file (output.txt). Both the input and ouput files are in the same folder as the geotool.exe. To use the tool, the input file containing adequate information of the case should be prepared in the format explained below, and the input file should be put into the same folder as geotool.exe. Then the geotool.exe can be executed, which will generate a output.txt file in the same folder containing all key calculation results. The format and content of the output file is explained below as well.

本计算引擎可评估输运型地热能源项目的技术经济可行性。输运型地热能源（Transported Geothermal Energy，TGE）筛查工具（geotool.exe）从输入文件（input.txt）读取数据，并将计算结果写入输出文件（output.txt）。输入与输出文件均需与geotool.exe置于同一文件夹内。若要使用该工具，需先按照下文说明的格式编写包含项目完整信息的输入文件，并将其与geotool.exe置于同一文件夹中。随后运行geotool.exe，即可在同一文件夹内生成包含所有关键计算结果的output.txt文件。输出文件的格式与内容将在下文另行说明。
