Fluid Flow and Heat Transport Computation for Power-Law Scaling Poroperm Media by Peter Leary, Peter Malin, Rami Niemi

“…Wellbore-centric thermal transport is described by Peclet number Pe ≡ a0φv0/D (a0 = wellbore radius, v0 = fluid velocity at a0, φ = mean crustal porosity, and D = rock-water thermal diffusivity). The modelling schema is (i) 3D global mesh for spatially correlated stochastic poropermeability; (ii) ambient percolation flow calibrated by well-core porosity-controlled permeability; (iii) advection via fault-like structures calibrated by well-log neutron porosity; (iv) flow Pe ~ 0.5 in ambient crust and Pe ~ 5 for fault-borne advection.…”
