Calculation of temperature plumes in groundwater with analytical and numerical models

摘要

With increasing numbers of groundwater heat pump systems, the potential for user conflicts is also increasing. As part of the approval process, it is therefore necessary to delineate the temperature plumes in groundwater emanating from those wells. Hence, in the state of Baden-Wurttemberg, the thermal online model (TOM) was developed as an extension to the existing guidelines for open systems 10 l/s), simulation with a calibrated numerical model is recommended.
