Non-isothermal modeling of CO2 injection into saline aquifers at a low temperature

To investigate the effects of temperature on the CO2 storage in the deep saline aquifers, we set up a 2-D non-isothermal numerical model with simulating the CO2 injection into the aquifers at a low temperature. The evolution of the CO2 plume and the temperature in the aquifer were studied, and using temperature signal to monitor the arrival of CO2 plume was also evaluated. In addition, the deviance of the isothermal model was analyzed. The...
