Thermodynamic analysis of pavement roads underground heat harvesting through water pipelines for effective management of urban heat island effect integrated to space cooling applications

Urban heat island effect drastically affects the climate by approximately increasing the surroundings temperature by 2°C, thus, rises the energy demand for space cooling. As roads/asphalt pavements makes 20–30% of urban areas that are fully exposed to solar radiations, this unused energy can be util...
