Abstract
A generic geothermal power conversion relation was developed based on the total produced enthalpy. Three more specific correlations are presented for single flash/dry steam plants, double flash plants and binary plants. The conversion efficiency of binary plants has the lowest confidence, mainly because of the common use of air cooling which is highly affected by local and seasonal changes in ambient temperatures.
