Good day,

I am new with COMSOL and I am trying to create a model represeting water flowing in injection well. I build a model that consist of three domain: 1. Water, which is inside of the well 2. Well thickness 3. Earth Formation My question is, how to have temperature gradient that can represent earth temperature gradient, which is 25K/1000m?

Hi Nico,

COMSOL's interface is interpreted, so you can type mathematical expressions in the text fields for your model inputs. For instance, if you want the temperature at a boundary to be Tsurf+.025[K/m]*z (where z is the vertical coordinate pointing into the ground and Tsurf is the temperature at ground level), you can simply type that mathematical expression directly in your Temperature boundary condition.

Best,

Jeff
