This book was released on 1996 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Waters from hot springs, pools, and geysers have been analyzed by numerous investigators throughout the history of Yellowstone National Park. The chemistry of the more easily accessible major geyser basins and a significant number of Yellowstone thermal waters on the eastern side of the Yellowstone River has been compiled by Gooch and Whitfield (1888), Allen and Day (1935), Rowe andothers (1973), Thompson and others (1975), Thompson and Yadav (1979), and Kharaka and others (1992). The first comprehensive study of Shoshone Geyser Basin was made by A.H. Truesdell in 1972-73 (Truesdell and Thompson, 1982). Many of the concepts presented in that report are applicable to other Yellowstone thermal areas. Locations of the major thermal water basins mentioned in this report can be found in Figure 1. The collection of data on the hot and cold springs of Yellowstone National Park is important in understanding the geothermal chemistry of this system. Geochemical changes that occur over time, the disappearance of existing springs, the appearance of new ones and geochemical changes in spring waters prior to earthquakes, can be monitored. Especially important are those springs for which there is little or no data.-Introduction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geysers. What makes them work? Many who have seen a geyser in action know only that it spouts hot water into the air. Many others have never seen one. Chapter 1, Geysers of the World, delineates their distinguishing features, locates the geyser regions of the world, and places investigations by world travelers and scientists in historic perspective. One of the quickest ways to become acquainted with a geyser is to observe it. The descriptions of several well known geysers, some based on past observations by others, but frequently by me, do not neces sarily portray current behavior. They do, however, represent general features. Geysers exist as a result of a delicate and unique interplay among the heat, the water, and the rocks of the earth. In essence, heat and water must be available, transported, distributed, stored, and finally released. Chapter 2, The Geologic, Thermal, and Hydrologic State of the Earth, especially that close to its surface, sets the stage for Chapter 3, Fundamentals of Geyser Operation. The geyser is treated here as a simple system consisting of three major interacting elements: a source of water, a source of heat, and a reservoir for storing water. The discus sion centers around the actions occurring within idealized columnar and pool geysers, and more complex systems. Some of the more workable geyser theories are evaluated.

Book excerpt: "This list of United States thermal spring locations and temperatures and accompanying maps have been compiled in the course of preparing the maps: (1) Geothermal Energy Resources of the Western United States by National Geophysical and Solar-Terrestrial Data Center, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) (Grim, 1977); (2) Geothermal Energy in the Western United States and Geothermal Energy in Alaska and Hawaii in the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Assessment of Geothermal Resources of the United States-7978 (Muffler, 1979); and (3) State maps in press and preparation for the State Coupled Resource Assessment Program, U.S. Department of Energy, Division of Geothermal Energy (DOE/DGE). The list is a compilation of compilations, mainly from Waring's (1965) monumental Thermal Springs of the United States and Other Countries of the World; a Summary, USGS GEOTHERM computer file of thermal spring and well data, and currently active DOE/DCE-sponsored thermal data collection by State agencies and other organizations"--Page 1.

Download or read book Geothermal Energy written by Ingrid Stober and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-24 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The internal heat of the planet Earth represents an inexhaustible reservoir of thermal energy known as Geothermal Energy. The 2nd edition of the book covers the geologic and technical aspects of developing all forms of currently available systems using this "renewable" green energy. The book presents the distribution and transport of thermal energy in the Earth. Geothermal Energy is a base load energy available at all times independent of climate and weather. The text treats the efficiency of diverse shallow near surface installations and deep geothermal systems including hydrothermal and petrothermal techniques and power plants in volcanic high-enthalpy fields. The book also discusses environmental aspects of utilizing different forms of geothermal energy, including induced seismicity, noise pollution and gas release to the atmosphere. Chapters on hydraulic well tests, chemistry of deep hot water, scale formation and corrosion, development of geothermal probes, well drilling techniques and geophysical exploration complete the text. This book, for the first time, covers the full range of utilization of Geothermal Energy.
