Hi,

I can't find a dT ("delta temperature") function in the MVE package, for example when the temperature of the injection well is increased o decreased compared to the pumping well T, because of a heat pump or any other type of heat intermediate exchanger.

It seems to me that the CTS package for the solute transport does have a similar function.

Thanks in advance,
Didier

You are correct. MVE just moves the energy associated with a transfer of fluid. It does not have a mechanism for changing the amount of energy in the transferred fluid. It doesn't do what the CTS package does. 
The only way I can see to change the temperature of the transferred fluid would be to use the MODFLOW API to access and change the appropriate internal variables in MODFLOW. You would need to program something to access the API and make the changes.
