The results show that the thermal transport in the aquifer is closely related to the distance between pumping and injecting wells and the cooling-load design fluctuations, especially, to the cycling water volume. The thermal transport in the aquifer sees different characteristics in the two states in the pumping-recharging stages in summer/winter and the storing stages in spring/autumn. With the hydro-geologic theory and the numerical model, the effect of the groundwater-flow on the thermal transport in the unconfined aquifer is discussed.展开更多
