Abstract
The process of heat transfer during the fluid filtration in rocks of magma-geothermal system of Mutnovsky volcano was studied by the method of numerical simulation. The distribution of temperature, pressure, fluid phase state and its phases’ velocities were obtained. The character of dependence of the calculated geothermal gradient and geometry of supercritical fluid region on the form of magma chamber, the permeability of fluid-conductive zone and degassing discharge was determined.
