OSTI ID:5790449
In order to study control of the shape and movement of a fluid plume in a confined aquifer, the effects of various injection and production procedures on the extraction of an axisymmetric hot water plume have been calculated with a numerical model. These studies show that the effects of buoyancy flow and aquifer heterogeneity can be counteracted during extraction. The numerical techniques have been verified against an Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage field experiment conducted by Auburn University on a shallow aquifer in Mobile County, Alabama. The results of this study can be applied to fluid plumes of chemical and physical properties different from the native groundwater.
