    Abstract: System for determining the advective velocity of the thermal affected zone related to aquifer re-injection of water in geothermal systems, wherein the advective velocity is obtained through the analysis of data measured by temperature monitoring devices, wherein the temperature monitoring devices are positioned in a re-injection well and at a control point located downstream of the re-injection well, by cross-correlating said measured data. The cross-correlation determines the time shift of the signal relating to the temperature measured in the re-injection well with respect to the signal relating to the temperature measured at the control point. The temperature monitoring devices comprise means for acquiring temperature data, or probes, positioned within the re-injection well and within the control point located downstream of the re-injection zone.
