摘    要:为了探索高渗透性洋壳中高温热液循环系统的形成机制,以数值模拟为手段研究热液循环中的矿物沉淀过程及其对洋壳渗透率的反馈.在热液对流-矿物反应模型中考虑了硬石膏、黄铁矿和黄铜矿的沉淀和溶解反应,基于矿物的溶度积计算矿物的沉淀/溶解量,并将其转换为渗透率的变化.结果显示,黄铁矿和黄铜矿分布于350~380℃等温线范围内,并随着热液温度升高而逐渐向海底推移.海水被加热及与热液混合过程中沉淀出硬石膏,在热液上升通道两侧形成低渗透性的烟囱状结构,降低了海水-热液混合程度从而使热液温度升高.高温热液通道建立后,便会有更多的金属物质随着高温热液被运输至浅层洋壳或海底.模拟结果为理解海底高温热液喷口的形成机制提供了借鉴. 

关 键 词:海底热液系统    高温喷口    数值模拟    矿物沉淀    黑烟囱    地球物理

Abstract:To understand the mechanism of high-temperature hydrothermal system in highly permeable oceanic crust,a reactive hydrothermal convection model is proposed to solve mineral precipitation and its feedback on permeability.Mineral reaction of anhydrite,pyrite and chalcopyrite are accounted in the model.Precipitation and dissolution can be solved using solubility product of the mineral and transformed into permeability change.The results suggest that pyrite and chalcopyrite are precipitated as cap-like structure around 300-380℃isotherm.With hydrothermal temperature increasing,the cap-like structure is moving to seafloor.Anhydrite is precipitated as chimney-like structure around focus flow by seawater heating and seawater-hydrothermal mixing.The low permeable chimney-like structure prevent seawater-hydrothermal mixing and thus keep hydrothermal at high temperature.Once the high-temperature focusing flow is formed,more metal can be dissolved in hydrothermal and be transported to shallow crust and seafloor.The numerical simulation results could help to understand the mechanism of high-temperature hydrothermal venting.
Keywords:seafloor hydrothermal system  high-temperature venting  numerical simulation  mineral precipitation  black smoker  geophysics
