For regular initial data with m0E0 is suitable small, where m0 and E0 represent the upper bound of initial density and initial energy, we prove that if ρ0 ∈ Lγ ∩ H3 with γ ∈ (1, 6), then the problem possesses a unique global classical solution on R^(3) × [0, T] with any T ∈ (0, ∞). It’s worth noting that both the vacuum states and possible random largeness of initial energy are allowed.展开更多

Soft magnetic properties and densities of the amorphous particles and the CI particles were tested and compared. The results indicate the amorphous particles present a lower density but larger magnetization intensity and larger permeability at lower field levels. Properties of the AMRF with 20% particles in volume fraction were tested and compared with the CI based MR fluid (CMRF). The AMRF presents a saturation yield stress of 41 kPa at ~227 kA/m and a sedimentation ratio of 80%. The results indicate the magneto-rheological fluid based on amorphous micro-particles has better MR properties and sedimentation stability than that based on CI particles at lower field levels (0-200 kA/m).展开更多

文摘Multiphase flow in porous rock is of great importance in the application of many industrial processes,including reservoir delineation,enhanced oil recovery,and CO_(2) sequestration.However,previous research typically investigated the dispersive behaviors when rock saturated with single or two-phase fluids and conducted limited studies on three-phase immiscible fluids.This study investigated the seismic dispersion,attenuation,and reflection features of seismic waves in three-phase immiscible fluidsaturated porous rocks.First,we proposed the calculation formulas of effective fluid modulus and effective fluid viscosity of multiphase immiscible fluids by taking into account the capillary pressure,reservoir wettability,and relative permeability simultaneously.Then,we analysed the frequencydependent behaviors of three-phase immiscible fluid-saturated porous rock under different fluid proportion cases using the Chapman multi-scale model.Next,the seismic responses are analysed using a four-layer model.The results indicate that the relative permeability,capillary pressure parameter,and fluid proportions are all significantly affect dispersion and attenuation.Comparative analyses demonstrate that dispersion and attenuation can be observed within the frequency range of seismic exploration for a lower capillary parameter a3 and higher oil content.Seismic responses reveal that the reflection features,such as travel time,seismic amplitude,and waveform of the bottom reflections of saturated rock and their underlying reflections are significantly dependent on fluid proportions and capillary parameters.For validation,the numerical results are further verified using the log data and real seismic data.This numerical analysis helps to further understand the wave propagation characteristics for a porous rock saturated with multiphase immiscible fluids.

文摘As the global exploration and development of oil and gas resources advances into deep formations,the harsh conditions of high temperature and high salinity present significant challenges for drilling fluids.In order to address the technical difficulties associated with the failure of filtrate loss reducers under high-temperature and high-salinity conditions.In this study,a hydrophobic zwitterionic filtrate loss reducer(PDA)was synthesized based on N,N-dimethylacrylamide(DMAA),2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid(AMPS),diallyl dimethyl ammonium chloride(DMDAAC),styrene(ST)and a specialty vinyl monomer(A1).When the concentration of PDA was 3%,the FLAPI of PDA-WBDF was 9.8 mL and the FLHTHP(180℃,3.5 MPa)was 37.8 mL after aging at 240℃for 16 h.In the saturated NaCl environment,the FLAPI of PDA-SWBDF was 4.0 mL and the FLHTHP(180℃,3.5 MPa)was 32.0 mL after aging at 220℃ for 16 h.Under high-temperature and high-salinity conditions,the combined effect of anti-polyelectrolyte and hydrophobic association allowed PDA to adsorb on the bentonite surface tightly.The sulfonic acid groups of PDA increased the negative electronegativity and the hydration film thickness on bentonite surface,which enhanced the colloidal stability,maintained the flattened lamellar structure of bentonite and formed an appropriate particle size distribution,resulting in the formation of dense mud cakes and reducing the filtration loss effectively.

文摘The reservoir landslide is typically characterized by high-speed movement of a particle-fluid mixture,and its flow and deposit mechanisms are complex.This paper presents the mechanism of submerged granular column collapse under different densities ambient fluids based on coupled computational fluid dynamics and discrete element method(CFD-DEM)analysis.Important fluid-particle interaction forces,such as the drag force and the buoyancy,are considered by exchanging interaction forces between the CFD and DEM computations.We focus on the flow and deposit characteristics of submerged granular column collapse,namely the runout distance,the tail end height,the particle velocity,the energy,and deposit morphology,which are analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively.The change in fluid field caused by submerged granular column collapse and the formation of eddies are also discussed.A relatively dense fluid can significantly hinder the motion of granular flow,but can improve the conversion efficiency of kinetic energy from the vertical to the horizontal direction.Moreover,the eddies caused by fluid turbulence erode the surface of the granular pile,which is especially marked in a high-density fluid.The findings can provide vital theoretical support for the flow and deposit characteristics of granular flow under fluid and offer insights for the study of reservoir landslides.

文摘Smart low-solid drilling fluids(SLSDFs)with thermo-controllable rheological properties and attractive thickening characteristics have recently captivated profound attention due to their low formation damage and enhanced cuttings lifting capacity.However,their applications to deep hole drilling at high temperatures have remained limited because of the thermal instability and environmental constraints of the thermo-associating polymers as additives.This work explored the synergistic benefits of thermo-associating polymer and biogenic nano-silica(B-SiNP)extracted from rice husk to improve the thermo-stability of SLSDF.This study shows that the nano-hybrid,TAP-S based on vinyl-terminated B-SiNP could potentially mitigate the limiting performance of conventional LSDF(F-2)caused by the failure of thermo-associating copolymers under elevated temperatures.TAP-S bearing drilling fluid(F-3)could preserve more than 5.6-fold of its initial properties(ca.apparent viscosity,plastic viscosity,yield point,and gel strength)with a nearly flat-gel profile in the temperature range of 25-230℃,which was higher than those of the counterpart F-2 and base fluid according to the results of rheological tests analysis.In addition,TAP-S exhibited an abrupt thermo-thickening characteristic with a magnitude declining by only 1.05-fold and the activation Gibbs free energy of 1339 kJ/mol above the plateau(ca.130℃),reflecting its less sensitivity compared to F-2 under a continuous heating process.As a result,a lower temperature was required to drive the dehydration of the residual fraction of lower critical solution temperature(LCST)in nano-hybrid structures than TAP according to the results of DSC analysis.Thus,lower energy was expected to disintegrate the residual hydrogen bonds formed between the LCST chains and surrounding water molecules at elevated temperatures.Moreover,TAP-S formed a solid-micro-crosslinking structure network which exhibited a more stable hydrodynamic diameter as revealed by DLS analysis.Compared with TAP,TAP-S consisted of a larger composite B-SiNP-TAP integrated spatial network structure based on the results of environmental scanning electron microscope,which conferred a degree of thermal conductivity characteristic for improved temperature resistance.This contributed to the effective binding onto bentonite particles for protection and maintained a relatively stable bentonite particle dispersion according to the results of EPM and particle size distribution analyses.Consequently,TAP-S fortified drilling fluid demonstrates improved rheological and filtration performance under severe downhole conditions.Therefore,TAP-S,the thermo-associating copolymer integrated with B-SiNP could find potential application as an eco-friendly viscosifier in LSDFs for deep-well drilling operations.

文摘This paper concerns the Cauchy problem of 3D compressible micropolar fluids in the whole space R^(3). For regular initial data with m0E0 is suitable small, where m0 and E0 represent the upper bound of initial density and initial energy, we prove that if ρ0 ∈ Lγ ∩ H3 with γ ∈ (1, 6), then the problem possesses a unique global classical solution on R^(3) × [0, T] with any T ∈ (0, ∞). It’s worth noting that both the vacuum states and possible random largeness of initial energy are allowed.

文摘Conversion and capture of carbon pollutants based on carbon dioxide to valuable green oil-field chemicals are target all over the world for controlling the global warming.The present article used new room temperature amphiphilic imidazolium ionic liquids with superior surface activity in the aqueous solutions to convert carbon dioxide gas to superior amphiphilic calcium carbonate nanoparticles.In this respect,tetra-cationic ionic liquids 2-(4-dodecyldimethylamino)phenyl)-1,3-bis(3-dodecyldimethylammnonio)propyl)bromide-1-H-imidazol-3-ium acetate and 2-(4-hexyldimethylamino)phenyl)-1,3-bis(3-hexcyldimethylammnonio)propyl)bromide-1 H-imidazol-3-ium acetate were prepared.Their chemical structures,thermal as well as their carbon dioxide absorption/desorption characteristicswere evaluated.Theywere used as solvent and capping agent to synthesize calcium carbonate nanoparticles with controlled crystalline lattice,sizes,thermal properties and spherical surface morphologies.The prepared calcium carbonate nanoparticles were used as additives for the commercial water based drilling mud to improve their filter lose and rheology.The data confirm that the lower concentrations of 2-(4-dodecyldimethylamino)phenyl)-1,3-bis(3-dodecyldimethylammnonio)propyl)bromide-1-H-imidazol-3-ium acetate achieved lower seawater filter lose and improved viscosities.

文摘Icing detection is critically important for preventing safety accidents and economic losses,especially concerning ice formation from invalidated anti-icing fluids(water and ethylene glycol)under extreme conditions.Traditional technologies like ultrasonics and capacitor-antenna face challenges with limited detection areas,lower accuracy,and susceptibility to electromagnetic interference.Here,we introduce a novel viscosity-ultrasensitive fluorescent probe 40,4‴-(2,2-diphenyle-thene-1,1-diyl)bis-(3,5-dicarboxylate)(TPE-2B4C)based on AIEgens for moni-toring ice formation of anti-icing fluids in low-temperature environments.TPE-2B4C,consisting of four sodium carboxylate groups and multiple freely rotating benzene rings,demonstrates outstanding solubility in anti-icing fluids and exhibits no fluorescent background signal even at low temperatures(<−20°C).Upon freezing,TPE-2B4C relocates from the water phase to higher viscosity ethylene glycol,causing restriction of benzene rings and a significantly increased green fluorescence signal.TPE-2B4C can successfully determine whether the anti-icing fluids are icing from−5 to−20°C with a high contrast ratio.Due to its simple setup,fast operation,and broad applicability,our new method is anticipated to be employed for rapid,real-time,and large-scale icing detection.
文摘Characterization and optimization of physical and chemical properties of drilling fluids are critical for the efficiency and success of drilling operations.In particular,maintaining the optimal levels of solids content is essential for achieving the most effective fluid performance.Proper management of solids content also reduces the risk of tool failures.Traditional solids content analysis methods,such as retort analysis,require substantial human intervention and time,which can lead to inaccuracies,time-management issues,and increased operational risks.In contrast to human-intensive methods,machine learning may offer a viable alternative for solids content estimation due to its pattern-recognition capability.In this study,a large set of laboratory reports of drilling-fluid analyses from 130 oil wells around the world were compiled to construct a comprehensive data set.The relationships among various rheological parameters were analyzed using statistical methods and machine learning algorithms.Several machine learning algorithms of diverse classes,namely linear(linear regression,ridge regression,and ElasticNet regression),kernel-based(support vector machine)and ensemble tree-based(gradient boosting,XGBoost,and random forests)algorithms,were trained and tuned to estimate solids content from other readily available drilling fluid properties.Input variables were kept consistent across all models for interpretation and comparison purposes.In the final stage,different evaluation metrics were employed to evaluate and compare the performance of different classes of machine learning models.Among all algorithms tested,random forests algorithm was found to be the best predictive model resulting in consistently high accuracy.Further optimization of the random forests model resulted in a mean absolute percentage error(MAPE)of 3.9%and 9.6%and R^(2) of 0.99 and 0.93 for the training and testing sets,respectively.Analysis of residuals,their histograms and Q-Q normality plots showed Gaussian distributions with residuals that are scattered around a mean of zero within error ranges of±1%and±4%,for training and testing,respectively.The selected model was further validated by applying the rheological measurements from mud samples taken from an offshore well from the Gulf of Mexico.The model was able to estimate total solids content in those four mud samples with an average absolute error of 1.08% of total solids content.The model was then used to develop a web-based graphical-user-interface(GUI)application,which can be practically used at the rig site by engineers to optimize drilling fluid programs.The proposed model can complement automation workflows that are designed to measure fundamental rheological properties in real time during drilling operations.While a standard retort test can take approximately 2 h at the rig site,such kind of real-time estimations can help the rig personnel to timely optimize drilling fluids,with a potential of saving 2920 man-hours in a given year for a single drilling rig.

文摘With the increasing requirements for fast charging and discharging,higher requirements have been put forward for the thermal management of power batteries.Therefore,there is an urgent need to develop efficient heat transfer fluids.As a new type of heat transfer fluids,functional thermal fluids mainly includ-ing nanofluids(NFs)and phase change fluids(PCFs),have the advantages of high heat carrying density,high heat transfer rate,and broad operational temperature range.However,challenges that hinder their practical applications remain.In this paper,we firstly overview the classification,thermophysical prop-erties,drawbacks,and corresponding modifications of functional thermal fluids.For NFs,the high ther-mal conductivity and high convective heat transfer performance were mainly elaborated,while the stability and viscosity issues were also analyzed.And then for PCFs,the high heat carrying density was mainly elaborated,while the problems of supercooling,stability,and viscosity were also analyzed.On this basis,the composite fluids combined NFs and PCFs technology,has been summarized.Furthermore,the thermal properties of traditional fluids,NFs,PCFs,and composite fluids are compared,which proves that functional thermal fluids are a good choice to replace traditional fluids as coolants.Then,battery thermal management system(BTMS)based on functional thermal fluids is summarized in detail,and the thermal management effects and pump consumption are compared with that of water-based BTMS.Finally,the current technical challenges that parameters optimization of functional thermal fluids and structures optimization of BTMS systematically are presented.In the future,it is necessary to pay more attention to using machine learning to predict thermophysical properties of functional thermal fluids and their applications for BTMS under actual vehicle conditions.

文摘Wavefields in porous media saturated by two immiscible fluids are simulated in this paper.Based on the sealed system theory,the medium model considers both the relative motion between the fluids and the solid skeleton and the relaxation mechanisms of porosity and saturation（capillary pressure）.So it accurately simulates the numerical attenuation property of the wavefields and is much closer to actual earth media in exploration than the equivalent liquid model and the unsaturated porous medium model on the basis of open system theory.The velocity and attenuation for different wave modes in this medium have been discussed in previous literature but studies of the complete wave-field have not been reported.In our work,wave equations with the relaxation mechanisms of capillary pressure and the porosity are derived.Furthermore,the wavefield and its characteristics are studied using the numerical finite element method.The results show that the slow P3-wave in the non-wetting phase can be observed clearly in the seismic band.The relaxation of capillary pressure and the porosity greatly affect the displacement of the non-wetting phase.More specifically,the displacement decreases with increasing relaxation coefficient.

文摘To improve the magneto-rheological (MR) properties of magneto-rheological fluids, self-made amorphous alloy particles, the composition of which was Fe76Cr2Mo2Sn2P10B2C2Si4, were used as the disperse phase to replace traditional carbonyl iron (CI) particles to prepare amorphous based magneto-rheological fluid (AMRF). Soft magnetic properties and densities of the amorphous particles and the CI particles were tested and compared. The results indicate the amorphous particles present a lower density but larger magnetization intensity and larger permeability at lower field levels. Properties of the AMRF with 20% particles in volume fraction were tested and compared with the CI based MR fluid (CMRF). The AMRF presents a saturation yield stress of 41 kPa at ~227 kA/m and a sedimentation ratio of 80%. The results indicate the magneto-rheological fluid based on amorphous micro-particles has better MR properties and sedimentation stability than that based on CI particles at lower field levels (0-200 kA/m).

文摘Transcritical and supercritical fluids widely exist in aerospace propulsion systems,such as the coolant flow in the regenerative cooling channels of scramjet engines.To numerically simulate the coolant flow,we must address the challenges in solving Riemann problems(RPs)for real fluids under complex flow conditions.In this study,an exact numerical solution for the one-dimensional RP of two-parameter fluids is developed.Due to the comprehensive resolution of fluid thermodynamics,the proposed solution framework is suitable for all forms of the two-parameter equation of state(EoS).The pressure splitting method is introduced to enable parallel calculation of RPs across multiple grid points.Theoretical analysis demonstrates the isentropic nature of weak waves in two-parameter fluids,ensuring that the same mathematical properties as ideal gas could be applied in Newton's iteration.A series of numerical cases validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.A comparative analysis is conducted on the exact Riemann solutions for the real fluid EoS,the ideal gas EoS,and the improved ideal gas EoS under supercritical and transcritical conditions.The results indicate that the improved one produces smaller errors in the calculation of momentum and energy fluxes.

文摘The Gejiu tin-copper-(tungsten)(Sn-Cu-(W))polymetallic district is located in the southwest of the W-Sn metallogenic belt in the western Youjiang Basin,Yunnan,Southwest China.Abundant W minerals have been identified in the region via exploration.However,metallogenic sources and evolution of W remain unclear,and the existing metallogenic model has to be updated to guide further ore prospecting.Elemental and Sr-Nd isotopic data for scheelites assist in the determination of sources and evolution of the W-mineralizing fluids and metals in the district.Based on field geological survey,the scheelites in the Gejiu district can be categorized into three types:altered granite(Type Ⅰ),quartz vein(Type Ⅱ)from the Laochang deposit,and skarn(Type Ⅲ)from the Kafang deposit.Types Ⅰ and Ⅱ scheelites have low molybdenum(Mo)and strontium(Sr)contents,and Type Ⅱ scheelite has lower Sr contents than Type Ⅰ as well as higher Mo and Sr contents than Type Ⅲ scheelites.Varying Mo contents across the scheelite types suggests that the oxygen fugacity varied during ore accumulation.Type Ⅰ and Type Ⅱ scheelites exhibit similar rare earth elements(REE)patterns;Type Ⅲ scheelite contains lower REE content,particularly HREE,compared with the other scheelites.All scheelites exhibit negative Eu anomalies in the chondrite-normalized REE patterns.As the W-mineralization and two-mica granite share close spatial and temporal relationships,the negative Eu anomalies were likely inherited from the two-mica granite.Type Ⅰ and Type Ⅱ scheelites display varied(^(87)Sr/^(86)Sr)_(82 Ma)(0.7090-0.7141)andε_(Nd)(82 Ma)(from−9.9 to−5.4)values,similar to those of granite.However,Type Ⅲ scheelite exhibits lower(^(87)Sr/^(86)Sr)_(82 Ma)(0.7083-0.7087)and lowerε_(Nd)(82 Ma)(from−10.5 to−6.9)values than the two-mica granite.This indicates that the two-mica granite alone did not provide the ore-forming fluids and metals and that the Type Ⅲ scheelite ore-forming fluids likely involved external fluids that were probably derived from carbonate rocks.The implication is that highly differentiated two-mica granites were the source of primary W-bearing metals and fluids,which is consistent with earlier research on the origin of Sn ore-forming materials.

文摘Understanding the thermodynamic behavior of complex fluids in confined environments is critical for various industrial and natural processes including but not limited to polymer flooding enhanced oil recovery(EOR).In this work,we develop Atif-V2.0,an extended classical density functional theory(cDFT)framework that integrates the interfacial statistical associating fluid theory(iSAFT)to model multicomponent associating fluids composed of water-soluble polymers,alkanes,and water.Building on the original theoretical framework of Atif for modeling nanoconfined inhomogeneous fluids,Atif-V2.0 embeds explicit solvent and captures additional physical interactions-hydrogen bonding,which are critical in associating fluid systems.The other key feature of Atif-V2.0 is its ability to account for polymer topology.We demonstrate its capability by predicting the equilibrium structure and thermodynamic behavior of branched hydrolyzed polyacrylamide solutions near hard walls with various branching topologies,which provides a robust theoretical tool for the rational design of EOR polymers.

文摘Millimeter channel reactors(MCRs)have received increasing attention because of their ability to enhance treatment capacity in addition to the advantages of microchannels.In previous studies,less work has been conducted on the micromixing process and enhancement strategies for non-Newtonian fluids in MCRs.In this study,the micromixing efficiency in MCRs was experimentally investigated using CMC(carboxymethyl cellulose sodium)aqueous solution to simulate a non-Newtonian fluid,and the enhanced mechanism of micromixing efficiency by the addition of internals and rotation was analyzed by computational fluid dynamics(CFD)simulations.The results show that in the conventional channel,increasing the flow rate improves the micromixing efficiency when the CMC concentration is low.However,when the CMC concentration is higher,the higher the flow rate,the lower the micromixing efficiency.The highest micromixing efficiency is obtained for the rotationally coupled inner components,followed by the single rotation and the lowest is for the internals only.CFD simulations reveal that the most effective way to improve the micromixing efficiency of non-Newtonian fluids with shear-thinning behavior is to increase the shear force in the reactor,which effectively reduces the apparent viscosity.These results provide the theoretical foundation for enhancing the micromixing process of non-Newtonian fluids in small-size reactors.

文摘Drilling operations in carbonate rock heavy oil blocks(e.g.,in the Tahe Oilfield)are challenged by the intrusion of high-viscosity,temperature-sensitive formation heavy oil into the drilling fluid.This phenomenon often results in wellbore blockage,reduced penetration rates,and compromised well control,thereby significantly limiting drilling efficiency and operational safety.To address this issue,this study conducts a comprehensive investigation into the mechanisms governing heavy oil invasion using a combination of laboratory experiments and field data analysis.Findings indicate that the reservoir exhibits strong heterogeneity and that the heavy oil possesses distinctive physical properties.The intrusion process is governed by multiple interrelated factors,including pressure differentials,pore structure,and the rheological behavior of the heavy oil.Experimental results reveal that the invasion of heavy oil occurs in distinct phases,with temperature playing a critical role in altering its viscosity.Specifically,as temperature increases,the apparent viscosity of the drilling fluid decreases;however,elevated pressures induce a nonlinear increase in viscosity.Furthermore,the compatibility between the drilling fluid and the intruding heavy oil declines markedly with increasing oil concentration,substantially raising the risk of wellbore obstruction.Simulation experiments further confirm that at temperatures exceeding 40℃and injection rates of L/min,the likelihood of wellbore blockage significantly≥0.4increases due to heavy oil infiltration.Based on these insights,a suite of targeted mitigation strategies is proposed.These include the formulation of specialized chemical additives,such as viscosity reducers,dispersants,and plugging removal agents,the real-time adjustment of drilling fluid density,and the implementation of advanced monitoring and early-warning systems.

文摘The phenomenon of mud volcanism has a connection with the processes of hydrocarbon generation.However,the genesis of sediments is not often taken into consideration.The study of mud volcanoes in the West Kuban marginal marine basin and the Junggar freshwater basin revealed significant isotope-geochemical differences due to various types of sedimentation.The waters from both basins exhibit three principal geochemical facies:Na-HCO_(3),Na-Cl-HCO_(3),and Na-Cl,of which the latter type of water is the dominant.The analysis of genetic coefficients(Cl/Br,Na/Br,and B/Cl)allowed us to distinguish different pathways of mud volcanic water evolution:evaporite dissolution,formation(sedimentation)waters,and waters formed by active water-rock interaction.Through statistical research,we were able to determine that noticeable variations in the behavior of chemical elements in waters from different areas can reflect discrepancies in the geological environment and the evolutionary stage of the diagenetic water transformation.Using thermodynamic modeling,the main directions of mass transfer were shown.It was established that the waters of the Junggar Basin were at a relatively early stage of evolution and had reached equilibrium only with carbonates,while in the formation waters of the West Kuban Basin,element concentrations were also controlled by silicate minerals.The correlations betweenδ^(18)O andδ~2H values and saturation indices of halides,aluminosilicates,sulfates,and borates confirm the enrichment of water with heavy isotopes during interactions with rocks without evaporation or thermal water partition.These reactions are characterized by clay dehydration and water enrichment with^(18)O and B.The data obtained made it possible to clarify the depths of formation of mud-volcanic fluids and their possible stratigraphic sources.

文摘The Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Plain is among the regions in China that feature the largest scale and the fastest growth in medium and deep geothermal heating.Based on tests of 82 geothermal fluid samples from 7 geothermal fields in Hebei Province,2 geothermal fields in Henan Province,and 2 geothermal fields in Shandong Province,and combined with previous studies on the chemical characteristics of karst geothermal water in Beijing and Tianjin,this paper systematically analyzes the migration characteristics of geothermal fluids in karst geothermal reservoirs within the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Plain.The hydrochemical characteristics of karst geothermal water in the research areas exhibit certain differences.The geothermal water in Hebei is more mature than that in its neighboring provinces.The distribution of total dissolved solids(TDS)and strontium elements in the area is characterized by being low in the north and south and high in the middle,suggesting that the overall flow direction of geothermal fluid is from the north and south towards the middle.Combined with the groundwater flow field and the changing trend of the hydrochemical characteristics of geothermal wells along the geological section,a geothermal water migration model has been established.The geothermal fluids originating from Taihang Mountain,Yanshan Mountain,and Western Shandong Mountain enter the basin and continue to migrate towards the central part of the basin along water-conducting faults.However,the migration characteristics of geothermal fluids with the same supply direction are not identical.The geothermal fluids from Taihang Mountain are cut off by the Niudong Fault in the north and terminate in the central uplift belt of the Jizhong Depression,while in the south,they enter the east of the Jizhong Depression relatively quickly along the Hengshui Conversion Belt.The geothermal fluids from Yanshan Mountain migrate into the basin along the Cangdong Fault,yet this fault also disrupts the hydraulic connection between the tectonic units.Considering the effective dynamic conditions,it is recommended to further expand the scale of the scientific development and utilization of geothermal energy in the geothermal water catchment areas around Xiongxian County and southwest Cangzhou City.
