Mathematical Investigation of Soil Temperature Variation for Geothermal Applications
Authors
Abstract:
This paper aims to predict the periodic variation of ground temperature with depth for time variant condition of ambient air temperature and solar radiation data for Jamshedpur, India. Fourier series and numerical techniques have been used to determine (hottest and coldest day) diurnal and annual temperature variation of the year 2015. The diurnal temperature variation is up to 0.2 m depth of soil whereas annual temperature variation is up to 3 m depth.

circuit analogies programming vs mathematical modelling for soil temperature distribution
temperature profile determination in soils under adverse conditions of variable heat capacity and conductivity is a rather hard task. the heat capacity and conductivity are moisture dependent and both vary with the soil density. moisture movement on the other hand is temperature dependent and so the two interact. no single mathematical formulae as yet exists for anticipating the temperature dis...

Geothermics has an increasing importance to energy supplies worldwide. Thus, there is also an increasing need to numerically model different geothermal scenarios. Depending on the type of problem, it may be necessary to take density coupled processes into account. Further, the thermal dependence of material properties should be considered. Special problems occur in the case of fractured flow, w...

Laboratory and field experiments have shown that dispersivity is one of the key parameters in contaminant transport in porous media and varies with elapsed time. This time-dependence can be shown using a time-variable dispersivity function. The advantage of this function as opposed to constant dispersivity is that it has at least two coefficients that increase the accuracy of the dispersivity p...
