Estimation of Temperature Recovery Distance and the Influence of Heat Pump Discharge on Fluvial Ecosystems
Temperature differences between the atmosphere and river water allow rivers to be used as a hydrothermal energy source. River-water heat pump systems are a relatively non-invasive renewable energy source; however, effluent discharged from the heat pump can cause downstream temperature changes which...
