Abstract

In this research, models of heat distribution of the subsurface of the Wapsalit geothermal area were built, which their structures were known before, using finite different method. Rock thermal diffusivity was used as the model parameter, which controlled the heat flow. The result showed that the heat flow was adjusted the model parameters effectively. Land surface temperature (LST) as the result of the model was compared to LST from Landsat-8 Thermal Infrared Sensor Imagery and produced absolute error 6.8% and 3.6% for cross-section 1 and 2, respectively. This error percentage confirmed that the model was successfully depicted the actual heat distribution of the subsurface of the study area.
