Motivation
Subsurface Temperature Profile around Lateral Flow makes adjustments to Geothermal Temperature Profile T_G(z) to account for the lateral reservoir flow with a temperature T_f (see Fig. 1)..

Outputs
T_b(t, z) | Temperature distribution |
Inputs
t | Time lapse after the temperature step from T_b(z=0) =0 up to T_b(z=0) =T_f |
z | Spatial coordinate along the transversal direction to constant temperature T_b(z)= T_f plane z=0 |
T_f | Boundary temperature at z=0 |
a | Thermal diffusivity of the surroundings |
T_G(z) | Geothermal Temperature Profile |
