Experimental study of heat transfer by water flowing through smooth and rough rock fractures

It is important to have an accurate understanding of heat transfer process of water flowing through fractures for geothermal energy extraction and utilization. We designed an experiment to study the convective heat transfer characteristics of distilled water pumped through manmade smooth and rough f...
