Abstract:An accurate understanding of the heat transfer of water through rock fractures is essential for the extraction and utilization of thermal energy from high‐temperature rock masses. A systematic numerical simulation based on the double‐rough‐walled model has been presented to investigate the shear effect on convective heat transfer in rough rock fractures. On the basis of the modified successive random additions algorithm, four different self‐affine surfaces were generated and utilized to establish the 3D double… Show more
