Utah FORGE: Hydrothermal Friction-Hydraulic Transmissivity Laboratory Experiments

Published by United States Geological Survey | Department of Energy | Metadata Last Checked: January 27, 2026 | Last Modified: 2024-07-09T16:19:48Z
Submission includes data from laboratory slide-hold-slide tests, combined with flow through tests, conducted on Westerly granite with 30 degree sawcut. Tests were conducted with a constant confining pressure of 30 MPa with an average pore pressure of 10 MPa at temperatures of 23 and 200 degC. Three fluid flow conditions were examined (1) no flow, (2) cycled flow, and (3) continuous flow. Data were collected to asses the effect of temperature and pore fluid on frictional healing rates in granite at geothermal conditions. Data is available in XML and JSON data types.
