A Mathematical Model for Geothermal Reservoirs
Abstract: Mathematical modelling of hot-water type geothermal reservoirs has been described and amodel is proposed in this paper,. The proposed mathematical model simulates the changes in pressure,temperature and subsidence in a producing geothermal reservoir. In this model the mechanism of fluidflow and heat transfer and the equilibrium of stresses are combined through a plastic stress-strain relationship and expressed by differential equations.
