Résumé

Current thermal response tests, used to estimate the subsurface thermal conductivity in the geothermal domain, are not designed to take into account groundwater flows. To measure the flow parameters, a new concept has been developed. Heating cables are installed within a borehole in contact to the formation, with three temperature probes strategically located at the edge of the borehole. Study of the evolution of temperature for each probe during both a heat injection phase and a recovery period allows determining ground thermal conductivity, groundwater flow velocity and orientation. Numerical simulations have been used to validate the proposed concept and establish its limits.
