The impact of porous medium heterogeneity on the thermal feedback of open-loop shallow geothermal systems

Mariaines Di Dato et al.

Summary: Groundwater is increasingly used for low-carbon heating and cooling of buildings with open-loop shallow geothermal systems. However, reinjection of water after heat exchange can lead to thermal feedback due to the return of injected water to the production well. This study investigates the impact of aquifer heterogeneity on thermal feedback metrics, highlighting the influence of conductivity heterogeneity on temperature evolution at the production well.

New direction and perspectives in elastic instability and turbulence in various viscoelastic flow geometries without inertia

Victor Steinberg

Summary: This article briefly describes the main results of elastically driven instabilities and elastic turbulence in viscoelastic inertialess flows with curved streamlines. It then introduces a theory of elastic turbulence and predicts elastic waves based on the elastic stress, similar to Alfven waves in magneto-hydrodynamics. In contrast to other waves, the speed of these elastic waves depends on the medium's elasticity. The linear stability of parallel shear flows is discussed, along with recent developments in the parallel shear channel flow of polymer solutions. Elastically driven instabilities, elastic turbulence, elastic waves, and drag reduction are observed in this flow, contradicting linear stability predictions. The resistance of the flow, velocity and pressure fluctuations, coherent structures, and spectral properties of the velocity field are also briefly discussed as functions of the elasticity number.

Elastic Turbulence: An Experimental View on Inertialess Random Flow

Victor Steinberg

Summary: Elastic turbulence (ET) is a chaotic flow phenomenon that occurs when a tiny amount of long polymer molecules is added to a viscous solvent laminar flow. ET is characterized by polymer stretching, which generates elastic stress and affects the flow. This review examines the statistical and spectral properties of the velocity field, pressure fluctuations, and friction factor scaling of ET in different flow geometries, based on experiments, numerical simulations, and theoretical descriptions.

Stagnation points control chaotic fluctuations in viscoelastic porous media flow

Simon J. Haward et al.

Summary: Research shows that introducing disorder into an ordered array of posts can promote chaotic fluctuations in viscoelastic flows through porous media, but the stability of pore geometry also depends on the nature of stagnation points exposed to the flow field.
