Table 5 Maximum percentage increase in deformation when interlayers are incorporated when compared to homogeneous test case after 50 days.
From: Geomechanical simulation of energy storage in salt formations
Interlayer | \(u_x\) | \( u_y \) |
---|---|---|
Midplane-carnallite | 44.4% | 12% |
Floor-carnallite | 200 % | 75 % |
Midplane-bischofite | 111 % | 20 % |
Floor-bischofite | 677 % | 380 % |
