Abstract: To optimize the behaviour of an ATES (aquifer thermal energy storage), to estimate its efficiency and to identify the optimal well locations, the planned installation was simulated with a FE-FV (finite element-finite volume) simulator with realistic water properties, created on the basis of the CSMP++ (Complex Systems Modelling Platform) software library.
