How a sensitive analysis on the coupling geology and borehole heat exchanger characteristics can improve the efficiency and production of shallow geothermal plants
Knowledge of the thermal behaviour around and throughout borehole heat exchangers (BHEs) is essential for designing a low enthalpy geothermal plant. In particular, the type of grout used in sealing the space between BHE walls and the pipes is fundamental for optimizing the heat transfer and minimizi...
