Experimental study on convective heat transfer of an open-loop borehole heat exchanger

Abstract Open-loop borehole heat exchanger (OBHE) is a single well geothermal heat exchanger with an open-loop structure that can realize the geothermal energy extraction without mining the geothermal water. In this paper, a sandbox experiment is designed to simulate the convective heat transfer pro...
