Heat production 8. Chondritic coincidence 9. Simple geotherm 10. Constraining surface temperature changes (climate changes) 11. Heat flow on Faults
3 Fourier s Law q = kt,x q = heat flux (units: W/(m^2) k = thermal conductivity (units: W/(m K) T temperature x spatial coordinate
4 Derivation of the heat heat (diffusion of equation) Use conservation of energy T,t (x,t) = κt,xx (x,t) + F(x,t) multi-dimensional: T,t = κ 2 T + F κ= thermal diffusivity = k/(cρ) units m 2 /s c is the specific heat
5 Heuristic reasoning for diffusion & κ If temperatures change with a characteristic time τ, they will propagate a distance on the order of (κτ) 1/2 A time L /κ is required for temperatures to propagate a distance L.
6 Heat Flow with Arbitrary Initial Conditions The solution of this transient problem is helpful in understanding the basic physics of diffusion. [Use separation of variables, for example). T,t = κt,xx 0 < x <1 0 < t < BC's : (0 < t < ) T(0,t) = 0 T(1,t) = 0 IC : (0 x 1) T(x,0) = φ(x)
7 General solution T(x,t) = where A n = 2 n =1 A n e (nπ )2 κt sin(nπx) 1 φ(x)sin(nπx)dx 0 Two important points: (a) The only difference between the Fourier sine expansion of ϕ(x) and the solution is the insertion of the time factor e (nπ )2 κt (b) Terms further out in the series get small very fast
8 How do the temperature oscillations imposed onto the Earth s surface by diurnal, seasonal, and climatic effects diffuse into the Earth? T(t) Z=0 z Assume temperature at the Earth s surface varies as: T (0,t) = T o + ΔT cosωt ω = 2π f f =frequency;ω =circular frequency;τ =period τ = 1 f = 2π ω
9 Turcotte & Schubert use separation of variables to solve this equation T = T o + ΔTe z /d cos(ωt z d ) d = κτ π = ω 2k

11 Can we drill deep (sample) enough? d ~ κτ π κ ~ 10 6 m 2 s 1 Period d, depth diurnal 24 hours 0.16 meter annual 365 days 10 meter climatic 10,000 yrs 1 km
12 Numerical solution of the thermal wave associated with T s pulse at the surface
13 Measurement of the surface heat flux requires measurement of the temperature gradient and via Fourier s Law: q=-kdt/dz q can be determined if k is measured in the laboratory: dt/dz ~ 20 to 30 C km -1 k ~ 2-3 W m -1 K -1 q ~ mw m -2 [An old unit in some papers: 1 heat flow unit [hfu=10-6 cal/ (cm 2 s) = mw/m 2 ) ]
14 The drilling process thermally perturbs the surrounding earth; Must wait for the system to return to equilibrium
15 4 recent heat flow Measurements from The Canadian shield. Temp measured with a thermister at every 10 m and k measured in lab from core cuttings For <k>=2.05 W m -1 K -1 dt/dz = 15.4 K km -1 q=27.8 mw m -2 [Guillou-Frottier, et al., 1995]
16 Smoothed Heat Flow from borehole measurements mw/m^2 SMU web site
17 Some rough estimates of average Heat flow out of the continents and Oceans [Turcotte & Schubert, 1982] q c = 56.3 mw m 2 q O = 78.2 mw m 2
18 What about the heat source term in the heat Equation? T,t = κ 2 T + F F is from the decay of Uranium, Thorium, and Potassium. For example: U Pb He + 6β + Q Q=47.4 MeV/atom Beta decay as the transformation of a neutron into a proton and an electron; Electron expelled from the nucleus as a negative beta particle
19 Rock H (W kg -1 ) ref Ref undepleated mantle Some heat production values F=H/C (F being the dt/dt used In previous equations 6.3 x TS basalt 2.6 x TS granite 9.6 x TS Chondritic meterorites 5.1 x TS Upper mantle 1.0 x Davies book
20 Assume perfect insulation dt dt ~ H c Assume that c~10 3 J kg -1 K -1 For granite dt/dt ~ 3 x 10-5 K yr -1 or 30 K after 1 Myr For upper mantle dt/dt ~ 3 x 10-8 K yr -1 or 0.03 K after 1 Myr
21 The decay of unstable isotopes is time-dependent, if there are N unstable isotopes in a rock, then dn dt = λn λ Is the decay constant N = N o e λt t 1/2 = half life = ln2 λ isotope t 1/2 (yr) 238 U 4.47x U 7.04x Th 1.40x K 1.25x10 9
22 Chondrites From U, Th, K H=5.1x10-12 W kg -1 Q (Chondritic Earth) = HM =(5.1x10-12 Wkg -1 )(5.93x10 24 kg) = 3.0x10 13 W Q Earth = q c A c + q o A o Q Earth =(56.3 mw m -2 )(2x10 8 km 2 ) + (78.2 mw m -2 )(3.1x10 8 km 2 ) = 3.55 x W =35 TW (Tera Watts) Chondritic Coincidence [Wasserburg et al., 1964] Ur = Urey ratio = present heat generation present heat loss
23 Let us look at a simple geotherm [i.e. T(z)]: q s T s Z=0 T,t = κt,zz + F T,t = 0 (Steady-state) T(z = 0) = T s Z q(z = 0) = q s solution T = T s + q s k z F 2κ z2
24 For the geotherm, take T s = 0 C q s = 70 mw m -2 ρ = 3300 kg m -3 H = 6.2 x K kg -1 ( reference undepleted mantle ) k = 4 W m -1 K -1 κ = 10-6 m 2 s T(ºC) 3000 Z (km) 200 Basalt solidus
