Discrete Fracture Network

An analytical thermohydraulic model for discretely fractured geothermal reservoirs. This package is an implementation of the model described in Fox, D. B., D. L. Koch, and J. W. Tester (2016), An analytical thermohydraulic model for discretely fractured geothermal reservoirs, Water Resources Research, 52, 6792-6817, doi:10.1002/2016WR018666

Installation

To install, run:

pip install git+https://github.com/xofbd/discrete-fracture-network.git

or:

git clone https://github.com/xofbd/discrete-fracture-network.git
pip install discrete-fracture-network/

or:

git clone https://github.com/xofbd/discrete-fracture-network.git
cd discrete-fracture-network/
make install

Note: you can use the --user flag for a local installation as opposed to system-wide.

Usage

Here is a short example of creating a simple network.

>>> import dfn
>>> conn = [(0, 1), (1, 2), (1, 2), (2, 3)]
>>> L = [100., 500., 500., 100.]
>>> H = [500., 500., 500., 500.]
>>> w = [1E-3, 1E-3, 1E-3, 1E-3]
>>> network = dfn.FractureNetwork(conn, L, H, w)

For more extensive examples of usage, look at the scripts in the example directory.

Tests

Unit tests are in tests and can be run with make test-unit. To lint, run make test-lint. Both unit testing and linting can be run with make tests.
