Abstract

Most of the studies of convection in porous media published before 1970 were motivated by geophysical applications and many published since have geophysical ramifications; see, for example, the reviews by Cheng (1978a, b, 1985b). On the other hand, geothermal reservoir modeling involves several features that are outside the scope of this book, and it usually involves specialist computer packages and techniques. Relevant reviews include those by Donaldson (1982), Grant (1983), O’Sullivan (1985a), Bodvarsson et al. (1986), Bjornsson and Stefansson (1987), McKibbin (1998, 2005), and O’Sullivan et al. (2000, 2001). An important book dealing with geological fluid dynamics is that by Phillips (2009). In this book, the emphasis is on flow patterns and specifically geological processes, involving dissolution, chemical reaction, and deposition. Some examples are discussed below in Sect. 11.12. Another important book is that by Woods (2014).
