TLDR
A computer simulation model AQSYST for simulating energy systems employing thermal energy storage in aquifers, or groundwater basins, is described in this article, where the authors suggest that high temperatures storage (up to 60-90°C) is feasible only in stagnant aquifer, whereas, for low-grade heat (15-25°C), aquifer with high natural flow rates ( up to 500-600 m yr−1) can be used.About:

Numerical modeling of aquifer thermal energy storage system
TL;DR: In this article, the performance of the ATES (aquifer thermal energy storage) system primarily depends on the thermal interference between warm and cold thermal energy stored in an aquifer, and thermal interference is mainly affected by the borehole distance, the hydraulic conductivity, and the pumping/injection rate.
