Measurement of In-Situ Flow Rate in Borehole by Heat Pulse Flowmeter: Field-Case Study and Reflection
2023
Overview
Large-scale groundwater flow modelling demands comprehensive geological investigation (GI) to accurately predict groundwater dynamics during open-cut and underground mining. Due to the existence of large-scale heterogeneity (e.g., fault and fracture) in natural geological strata (e.g., overburden soil, rock mass and coal seam), the in-situ flow measurement in boreholes, compared to laboratory seepage tests, can bring more reliable information to estimating the in-situ seepage properties (e.g., hydraulic conductivity, intrinsic permeability, transmissivity and specific yield). In this paper, a flow-measuring technique-heat pulse flowmeter (HPFM) is methodologically introduced and then practically applied for GI in the mining extension zone of Hunter Valley Operations (HVO), New South Wales, Australia. The measuring experiences, including both positive and negative outcomes, are reported and discussed with a series of datasets of in-situ flow rates measured in the selected boreholes. The pros and cons of the HPFM application in HVO are also discussed and summarised based on the user experience collected through this field trip. Finally, through a thorough reflection, some practical recommendations are provided to help other HPFM practitioners bypass all difficulties experienced on this trip. It is anticipated that valuable user information can contribute to better GI in other sites when performing this measuring technique.
