Thermodynamic-Based Rock Temperature Response and Geological Structure Evolution Simulation

The rock temperature response is closely related to geological structure evolution and is a crucial tool for studying Earth's internal dynamics, geothermal distribution, and structural evolution.The temperature distribution of rocks is influenced not only by the geothermal gradient but also by factors such as tectonic activity and heat source distribution.Currently, predicting rock temperature responses and simulating geological structure evolution have become significant topics in the field of geology.However, existing studies often rely on simplified heat conduction equations or empirical models, neglecting the complexity of geological structures and the uneven distribution of heat sources.This results in limited prediction accuracy and efficiency in large-scale areas or complex geological contexts.Moreover, traditional temperature inversion methods fail to fully consider the heterogeneity between tectonic units, limiting their application effectiveness in geological structure evolution simulations.To address these issues, this paper proposes a thermodynamic-based method for simulating rock temperature responses and geological structure evolution.The main content of the study includes two aspects: first, rock temperature response prediction based on the moving grid method, which efficiently handles temperature field distribution under complex geological structures; second, rock temperature inversion for geological structure evolution simulation, providing a more precise method for simulating geological structure evolution.Through this research, the paper aims to improve the accuracy and efficiency of rock temperature response prediction and provide a new theoretical framework and technical means for understanding subsurface thermodynamic processes and geological structure evolution.
