Abstract
Summary
The aim of the study is to explore the effects of dip angle of faults on temperature and fluid flow. Previous studies suggest that presence of fault zones significantly shape the temperature pattern and fluid flow velocities. Here we show that not only the existence of permeable zones inside the model but also their tilt angle in the models defines the order of fluid velocities. Furthermore, multiple fault models suggest that intersection of faults and their distance from each other might shape the fluid flow vector directions and depth penetration of the flow. Further studies will focus on graben systems bounded by the active faults in Aegean cost of Turkey.
