A semi-analytical solution for heat transport in rock with parallel fractures and a heat source in both fracture and matrix
Description
In this study, we propose a two-dimensional semi-analytical solution framework based on a Green’s function approach for a flexible heat source definition, including the heat source dimensions, energy delivery strength and duration, and the presence of a heat source in the matrix and/or fracture. The solution fully accounts for heat conduction, advection, dispersion, and transient heat exchange between the fracture fluid and rock matrix in a system of parallel fractures.
The dataset is for the figures 2-9 in the journal paper.
The computation code is available to generate the temperature in rock matrix or fracture using Matlab.
