高频电磁测深在地下热水勘探中的应用

高频电磁测深法是一种利用天然高频电磁场作为场源的电磁勘探方法,具有高分辨率和相对直流电法较深的勘探深度的特点,特别适合中浅层地热和地下水勘探。本文介绍了一个应用高频电磁测深评价地下热水资源的一个成功实例。野外数据采集采用了高频电磁测深系统MT-U5A,采用远参考技术,以保证数据采集质量。高频电磁测深资料二维反演成像处理结果较好地描述了地下热水的空间分布范围,为查明该区的地下热水的来源提供了较有利的证据。

The application of the high-frequency electromagnetic sounding method in the exploration of underground thermal water

High-frequency electromagnetic sounding is an electromagnetic exploration method using the natural high-frequency electromagnetic field as a field source. It has higher resolution and greater depth penetration than the direct current method and is especially fit for geothermal energy exploration and low- and mid-level groundwater detection. We introduce a successful application of high-frequency electromagnetic sounding for evaluating geothermal water resources. The high frequency electromagnetic system (MT-U5A with a frequency range from 10 KHz to 1 Hz) is first applied to sample field data from China. A remote reference station is used to assure sampled data quality. We then perform 2D inversion image processing with the electrical method data. The results basically indicate the spatial distribution of underground geothermal water and provide favorable dues to finding the sources of the subsurface geothermal water in this area.
