Abstract

The thermal characterisation of a geosonde field, consisting of four boreholes at the ENEA-Casaccia Research Centre (Rome, Italy), was carried out by processing the temperature values measured by DTS (Distributed Temperature Sensing) fibre optics positioned vertically in each well. By correlating the vertical temperature profiles, it was possible to estimate the thermal conductivity of each stratigraphic level and the contribution of the groundwater on the heat exchange between ground and geothermal probes. The theoretical model has been confirmed by the experimental data obtained through direct measurement of thermal conductivity on soil/rock samples collected at different depths.
