Geothermal gradient

Input(s)

TbhT_{b h}: Maximum Recorded Temperature (\left(\right. degree F{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{F} )

TsT_{s}: Temperature Near Surface (\left(\right. degree F)\left.{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\right)

DbhD_{b h}: Total Depth of Logged Borehole (ft)

Output(s)

gG:g_{G}: Geothermal Gradient (degree F/100ft{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{F} / 100 \mathrm{ft} )

Formula(s)

gG=(TbhTsDbh)100g_{G}=\left(\frac{T_{b h}-T_{s}}{D_{b h}}\right) * 100
