Hydrogeology of the vicinity of Homestake mine, South Dakota, USA

In an attempt to understand the numerous physical aspects of mines, a numerical modeling simulation on the development and dewatering of mines has been presented. The transient line source was used to complete this task. The log approximation was used to find the change in ...

When rocks get hot: thermal properties of reservoir rocks

When attempting to extract reservoir fluid from rock, the rock is often heated. When the reservoir fluid is hotter it is less viscous and easier to extract. Knowing the thermal conductivity of the rock in question is therefore incredibly important to preform these procedures. This ...

Measurements of thermal properties of rock samples under high temperature conditions

This study looked to analyze temperature effects on thermal transport properties of dry granite, gabbro, marble, and sandstone samples. An instrument was used with a high temperature chamber to perform thermal conductivity measurements on the rock samples. The thermal conductivity of the granite, marble, and ...
