In this thesis it is examined how accurately simple thermodynamic models of a single flash working cycle in a geothermal power plant simulate a working cycle of an actual one. The main purpose is to identify what are reasonable values for important parameters in these models. This is done by comparing model results with actual data from Hellisheiði power plant, located in south-west of Iceland. The results show that a suitable value for the turbine base efficiency in a simple model of a single flash cycle is 0.935, or slightly higher than 0.9, a value commonly used. It was verified that non-condensable gases can be excluded in the model calculations for low gas contents and the pressure drop between the steam separator outlet and the turbin...
