Geothermal Atlas

Name Description
Volumetric shallow thermal capacity Quantifies the capacity of soil/rock to store heat. This parameter is important to predict how the terrain reacts over time when subjected to thermal loads.
Shallow thermal conductivity Evaluates the ability of outcropping rocks to conduct heat. It is essential for the design of surface geothermal systems (heat pumps).
Data source Source of data for calculating the DFC and subsequent quantities.
DFC Zoning DFC generic values for potential use in large areas.
Temperatures at 250m depth in ºC Temperature estimates for 250 meters.
Temperatures at 500m depth in ºC Temperature estimates for 500 meters.
Geothermal gradient It measures the increase in temperature with depth (average of 1°C every 30 meters). It is needed to estimate the depth of thermal reservoirs.
Surface heat flow density (DFC) It is the fundamental parameter that quantifies the thermal energy flowing from the interior of the Earth towards the surface. Its calculation is based on the conductivity of the rocks and the temperature gradient.
Temperatures at 1000m depth in ºC Temperature estimates for 1000 meters.
Temperatures at 5000m depth in ºC Temperature estimates for 5000 meters.
Temperatures at 2000m depth in ºC Temperature estimates for 2000 meters.
