Convective and Advective Heat Transfer in Geological Systems

Convective and Advective Heat Transfer in Geological Systems by Chongbin Zhao, Bruce E. Hobbs, Alison Ord.

This monograph aims to provide state-of-the-art theoretical results in a systematic treatment of convective and advective heat transfer during fluid flow in geological systems at the crustal scale. Although some numerical results are provided to complement theoretical ones, the main focus of this mo...
