Heat ratio of contents in a geothermal reservoir
Input(s)
\(\varnothing\): Porosity (dimensionless)
\(\rho_{w}\): Water Density \(\left(\mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}\right)\)
\(C_{w}\): Performance Coefficient, a Function of Mean Pressure Level \(\left(\mathrm{KJ} / \mathrm{kg}{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right)\)
Output(s)
\(H_{w}\): Heat in Water Content \(\left(\mathrm{KJ} / \mathrm{m}^{3}{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right)\)
\(H_{T}:\) Total Heat \(\left(\mathrm{KJ} / \mathrm{m}^{3}{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right)\)
Formula(s)
\[
\frac{\mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{w}}}{\mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{T}}}=\frac{\rho_{\mathrm{w}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{w}} \varnothing}{\rho_{\mathrm{w}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{w}} \varnothing+\rho_{\mathrm{r}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}}(1-\varnothing)}
\]
