7. [10 points) A geothermal reservoir discharges 2000 MW (above 15 °C) over on surface area about 60 km . The reservoir temperature is 225 °C at a depth of 2.5 km. Assume an average heat conductivity of formations from surface to 2.5 km depth is 2.5 W/m-K. a) What is the discharged heat flux in W/m² b) What is the conductive heat flux c) Show that conduction can be ignored as means of heat transport. Fourier's Law Q = -k A dt dx (W) (W/m-K) (m) (k/m)
