Book excerpt: Describes a revised conceptual hydrogeologic model of regional groundwater flow in the crystalline rocks of the Whiteshell Research Area, Manitoba. Model boundaries were selected to coincide with the natural hydraulic boundaries assumed for the regional groundwater flow systems in the area. Rocks of the modelled region were divided on the basis of fracture characteristics into three categories: fractured zones, moderately fractured rock, and sparsely fractured rock. A fault framework formed by 76 selected fractured zones was constructed by linking the more prominent lineaments identified from satellite and airborne surveys, surface mapping, and borehole data. Physical rock/water properties were used to define a mathematical groundwater flow model, whose hydraulic properties were modified using an iterative process including sensitivity analysis and comparison with field measurements.

Book excerpt: This is volume 6, dealing with the zion nuclear power plant, of a seven-volume report of work done at battelle's columbus laboratories to estimate the amount of radioactive material that could be released from light water reactor (lwr) power plants under specific, hypothetical accident conditions. to make these estimates, five power plants were selected that represent the major categories of lwrs: three pressurized water reactors (pwrs) and two boiling water reactors (bwrs). specifications and data from these plants, along with data from laboratory experiments, were input to computer codes designed to describe various conditions prevailing inside an operating reactor. ultimately, these computer codes provide an estimate of how much radioactive material would be able to escape to the environment if a specific series of events (an "accident sequence") took place. volume 6 of this report deals with the zion power station, a westinghouse pwr housed in a large, dry, high-pressure containment building. the two accident sequences analyzed for the zion plant were selected for comparative purposes rather than as being representative of a wide range of possible physical conditions. the computer codes used in the analyses are those used throughout all volumes of this report and are representative of the state of the art available in 1983. other power plants included in the study are surry pwr (volumes 1 and 5); peach bottom bwr (volume 2); grand gulf bwr (volume 3); and sequoyah pwr (volume 4). the seventh volume will address technical questions raised during peer review meetings sponsored by the nuclear regulatory commission.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding of groundwater flow and solute transport in fractured rocks is vital for analysis of water resources, water quality and environmental protection, geotechnical and engineering projects, and geothermal energy production. This book includes theoretical and practical analyses using numerical modelling, geochemistry, isotopes, aquifer tests, laboratory tests, field mapping, geophysics, geological analyses, and some unique combinations of these types of investigation. Current water resource and geotechnical problems and the techniques now used are also discussed. Aimed at practicing hydrogeologists, engineers, ecologists, resource managers, students and earth scientists.

Download or read book Rock Fractures and Fluid Flow written by Committee on Fracture Characterization and Fluid Flow and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1996-09-10 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific understanding of fluid flow in rock fractures--a process underlying contemporary earth science problems from the search for petroleum to the controversy over nuclear waste storage--has grown significantly in the past 20 years. This volume presents a comprehensive report on the state of the field, with an interdisciplinary viewpoint, case studies of fracture sites, illustrations, conclusions, and research recommendations. The book addresses these questions: How can fractures that are significant hydraulic conductors be identified, located, and characterized? How do flow and transport occur in fracture systems? How can changes in fracture systems be predicted and controlled? Among other topics, the committee provides a geomechanical understanding of fracture formation, reviews methods for detecting subsurface fractures, and looks at the use of hydraulic and tracer tests to investigate fluid flow. The volume examines the state of conceptual and mathematical modeling, and it provides a useful framework for understanding the complexity of fracture changes that occur during fluid pumping and other engineering practices. With a practical and multidisciplinary outlook, this volume will be welcomed by geologists, petroleum geologists, geoengineers, geophysicists, hydrologists, researchers, educators and students in these fields, and public officials involved in geological projects.
