Groundwater is a major source of water for domestic, industrial, and agricultural sectors in many countries. The main objective of this research was to provide an overview of present groundwater quality using parameters such as calcium, magnesium, sodium, chloride, sulfate, pH, and electrical conductivity (EC) in the Mehran plain, Ilam province using GIS and geostatistical techniques. A total o...

The focal objective of this work is to calculate the energy consumption for constructing the EGS (Enhanced Geothermal Systems) wells, to examine the energy (heat and power) performance of such well systems, and to propose and evaluate several ways for improving that performance. A model was developed to compute the pressure and temperature fields of the geofluid flowing in the production and in...

1 Executive Summary E12-06-104 seeks to perform measurements of the ratio R = σ L /σ T of longitudinal to transverse cross sections in pion electroproduction. The emphasis will be on measurements in the so-called semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering region, where essentially no information exists on the value of R, with extensions into the exclusive region. Whereas inclusive scattering cann...

The current phase of the European Hot Dry Rock Project at Soultz-sous-Forêts requires the drilling of two additional deep wells to 5000 m depth into the crystalline basement, to form a module consisting of a central injector and two producers. The first well GPK-2 was drilled to 5000 m in 1999 and stimulated in 2000. The well GPK-3 (the injector) was drilled in 2002 and targeted using microseis...
