This grant, offered by the U.S. Geological Survey’s (USGS) Next Generation Water Observing System (NGWOS) Program, is for enhancing groundwater flowmeter design. It seeks a CESU Partner to develop a numerical model simulating flow and thermal processes within borehole environments. This model enables virtual testing of design variables and environmental considerations. Its purpose is to significantly reduce the need for multiple physical prototypes, costly field tests, and redevelopment. This initiative optimizes resources, accelerating the development of more efficient and accurate three-dimensional groundwater observing systems.

| Description: | U.S. Geological Survey’s (USGS) Next Generation Water Observing System (NGWOS) Program is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU Partner for research on the development of a numerical model to simulate flow and thermal processes within a borehole environment to enhance the design of a three-dimensional groundwater flowmeter. The model will simulate different design variables and environmental considerations prior to spending resources manufacturing multiple prototypes, field testing and redeveloping based on those results. |
