exchanger soil loss it structure due to drilling then the thermal conductivity is determined by mineral contain. The porosity of soil varies from place to place some kind of soil having less porosity but on the other hand some having high porosity like peat which consume water approximate 100%.

Change in water saturation occur in the unsaturated zone specially near…
