Thermal conductivity of saturated aquifer is typically 2.10 W/mC and
thermal heat capacity of rock grains about 1000 J/kgC.

we want to know flows and heat distribution over time. my main
concern is with parameters such as heat capacity and conductivity.
i'm having some trouble finding info on these parameters.
