The data presented below is the thermodynamic simulation and mathematical model development for the single and double flash cycles of Cerro Prieto geothermal power plants. For more insight into analysis thermodynamic, please see “thermodynamic simulation and mathematical model for single and double flash cycles of Cerro Prieto geothermal power plants” [1]. The datasets contained in this paper are thermodynamic simulations obtained in Aspen Hysys software, the data described represents the net power output and thermal efficiency for Cerro Prieto geothermal power plants, located in Mexicali, México. A single flash and double flash cycle have been selected for power generation at this facility. The single flash net power output and the thermal efficiency data includes eight main parameters: Well temperature (°C), Separator pressure (kPa), Condenser pressure (kPa), Turbine's power (kW), Phase Fraction, Mass Flow (kg/h), Energy input (kW) and Energy output (kW). Whereas the double flash net power output and the thermal efficiency data includes eight main parameters: Well temperature (°C), High-pressure separator (kPa), Low-pressure separator (kPa), Condenser pressure (kPa), Turbine's power (kW), Phase Fraction, Mass Flow (kg/h), Energy Input (kW) and Energy output (kW).
