Flashing flow in hot water geothermal wells
Manuel Nathenson
1974, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (2) 743-751
The production characteristics of hot-water geothermal wells which flash to steam-water mixtures in the cased part of the hole were-analyzed. The flashing flow is assumed to be isenthalpic and, for purposes of calculating pressure drop, a finely dispersed mixture of equal average velocity. Water flow in the aquifer is treated...
Long term flow of the Truckee River in California and Nevada
Howard Frederick Matthai
1974, Open-File Report 74-213
The Office of the Solicitor, Department of the Interior, requested the Geological Survey to evaluate the reliability of streamflow records in the Truckee River basin and to determine the long-term average annual runoff.The reliability of streamflow records was evaluated by comparisons between pairs of records at six locations along the...

1974, Open-File Report 74-30
As part of the Wagon Wheel definition studies, seismic investigations were conducted in Wyoming by personnel of the United States Geological Survey, Las Vegas, Nevada. From March 22, 1973 to February 22, 1974, a seismograph station recorded seismic activity at five different areas in the vicinity of the proposed Project Wagon Wheel location in...
Summary of tectonic and structural evidence for stress orientation at the Nevada Test Site
Wilfred James Carr
1974, Open-File Report 74-176
A tectonic synthesis of the NTS (Nevada Test Site) region, when combined with seismic data and a few stress and strain measurements, suggests a tentative model for stress orientation. This model proposes that the NTS is undergoing extension in a N. 50 ? W.-S. 50 ? E. direction coincident with...
