Geothermal Heating and its Influence on the Meridional Overturning Circulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The effect of geothermal heating on the meridional overturning circulation is examined using an idealized, coarse-resolution ocean general circulation model.

Numerical Simulation of Hydrothermal Autoclave for Single-Crystal Growth Process

open access: yesJournal of Thermal Science and Technology, 2008
Numerical simulation of the hydrothermal process for growing two-inch bulk single crystals of ZnO has been done. The autoclave is assumed to be axisymmetric. The heat transfer by natural convection is discussed for flat and funnel-shaped baffles.

Influence of Convection Term on Temperature Field during Soil Freezing

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
In recent years, the numerical model of frozen soil has mainly focused on the water-heat equation of unsaturated soil, which is of great significance to predicting engineering stability in frozen soil areas.

An experimental analogue for convection and phase separation in hydrothermal systems [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2006
Experiments were conducted to explore the behavior of convection and heat transfer during phase separation in porous media. Phase separation is considered to be an important process in many mid‐ocean ridge hydrothermal systems in which a dense brine separates from a lighter, less saline vapor phase at supercritical temperatures.

Integrated application of gravity, aeromagnetic, and electromagnetic methods in exploring the Ganzi geothermal field, Sichuan Province, China

open access: yesEnergy Geoscience, 2023
The Ganzi geothermal field is located in the Songpan-Ganzi orogenic belt in Sichuan Province. Many hot springs are exposed along the Yalahe valley in Ganzi geothermal field, which is a favorable area for high-temperature geothermal resource exploration ...

A Macroscale Hydrogeological Numerical Model of the Suio Hydrothermal System (Central Italy)

open access: yesGeofluids, 2019
The complex behaviour of the Suio hydrothermal system (central Italy) and its potential exploitation as a renewable energy source are still unclear. To quantitatively evaluate the geothermal resource, the Suio hydrothermal system has been investigated ...

ROLE OF ANISOTROPIC AND/OR LAYERED PERMEABELITY IN HYDROTHERMAL CONVECTION

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 1990
The spatial variation and degree of anisotropy of the permeability field (k) is an important parameter affecting the dynamics of convective fluid flow in saturated geologic media. We report results from time‐dependent, two‐dimensional numerical simulations, with constant fluid properties, for k fields that are anisotropic, layered or both.

Study of Fe3O4-water nanofluid with convective heat transfer in the presence of magnetic source

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2018
Influence of external magnetic source on ferrofluid convection in an enclosure with elliptic hot cylinder is studied. Governing formulae are first made dimensionless form along with the associated boundary conditions and then solved by powerful numerical

Natural convection and the evolution of a reactive porous medium

open access: yes, 2011
We describe a mathematical model of buoyancy-driven flow and solute transport in a saturated porous medium, the porosity and permeability of which evolve through precipitation and dissolution as a mineral is lost or gained from the pore fluid. Imposing a
