Procedure for estimating the temperature of a hot-water component in a mixed water by using a plot of dissolved silica versus enthalpy
January 1, 1977
A graphical method using a plot of dissolved silica versus enthalpy allows quick determination of the temperature of the hot-water component of a nonboiling thermal spring. The method is applicable to warm spring waters that either have not lost heat before mixing or have lost heat by separation of steam before mixing.
