Iterative techniques in linearized free surface flow

Creator:: Avera, William Edgar
Abstract:: The displacement of the free liquid surface in geothermal and hydrologic reservoirs is an important capacitance factor. An iterative approach to determining the drawdown of the free liquid surface for a single sink region in a homogeneous, isotropic, Darcy-type porous mediums is discussed. The iterative approach involves a stepwise adjustment...

On the numerical interpretation of gravity and other potential field anomalies caused by layers of varying thickness

Creator:: Adotevi-Akue, George Modesto
Abstract:: This thesis involves the interpretation of gravity and other potential field anomalies caused by layers of varying thickness. The partial differential equations of potential field theory are reviewed for gravitational and magnetic force fields. A similar review is carried out for steady-state heat transport and diffusion processes. For the gravitational...

An approach to thermal convection problems in geophysics with application to the earth's mantle and ground water systems

Creator:: Lowell, Robert P.
Abstract:: Two thermal convection problems of geophysical interest are examined, theoretically. First, convection in the earth's mantle is treated on the basis of a one-dimensional 'strip model'. This model results from further simplification of the well known 'Rayleigh model'. For homogeneous, Newtonian fluids, the strip model yields results similar to those...

Hydrology and thermomechanics of liquid-dominated hydrothermal systems in Iceland

Creator:: Axelsson, Gudni
Abstract:: Low-temperature hydrothermal activity in Iceland is apparently mostly controlled by dikes and fractures. Conventional methods of production data analysis are not readily applicable in cases of heterogeneous/anisotropic fracture dominated hydrothermal systems. Moreover, the dikes and fractures may control the heat uptake mechanism of low-temperature activity. The free-surface response functions of...

Numerical analysis of critical field functions for thermal convection in vertical or quasi-vertical Darcy flow slabs

Creator:: Shyu, Chuen Tien
Abstract:: The numerical analysis of thermal convection in porous media, heated from below, and assuming Darcy flow conditions, involves the solving of a set of non-linear equations for the temperature and flow fields. The condition of criticality determining the onset of convection is obtained by linearization and the solving of an...

Analytical and numerical continuation methods for conductive temperature fields

Creator:: Eggers, Dwight Edward
Abstract:: The continuation of conductive temperature fields is being considered. The continuation of a field involves the extrapolation of a field known over a limited domain to an adjacent domain in such a way that it satisfies the heat conduction differential equation and other imposed constraints. Continuations forward in time and...

Tidal tilt observations in the Krafla geothermal area in North Iceland

Creator:: Axelsson, Gudni
Abstract:: A brief tilt and strain survey was conducted in the Krafla-Namafjall area in the North of Iceland during August of 1979 in order to study the feasibility of applying solid earth tidal observations in the exploration of volcanic geothermal systems. The rationale of the survey was based on the expectation...

On the influence of terrestrial heat flow anomalies on the temperature microstructure at the ocean floor

Creator:: Vossler, Donald Alan
Abstract:: The effects on the temperature microstructure of terrestrial heat flow and heat flow anomalies at the ocean floor are discussed on the basis of a simple heat diffusion model. The effects on the temperature microstructure of layering of the thermal properties of the ocean are investigated. This is done both...
