Investigation on thermo-mechanical behavior of reinforced concrete energy pile with large cross-section in saturated sandy soil by model experiments

Energy piles are a new type of heat exchange systems with buried pipes in a pile foundation, which optimize a ground source heat pump system for the utilization of shallow geothermal energy. In this study, based on the principle of similarity, the thermo-mechanical behavior of the model energy pile...
