Transient phase change through a horizontal channel that subjected to discrete heat flux and filled with porous media of high-conductivity material, copper, is numerically investigated with n-pentane as the working fluid. The thermal non-equilibrium model is used in conjugate with the multiphase mixture model to analyze the transient behavior of fluid and solid phases. Three cases are studied r...

This paper investigates the transient heat conduction around the buried spiral coils which could be applied in the ground-coupled heat pump systems with the pile foundation as a geothermal heat exchanger. A transient ring-coil heat source model is developed, and the explicit analytical solutions for the temperature response are derived by means of the Green’s function theory and the image metho...

The heat flow-rate transferred through the ground represents an important rate of the heat flow-rate dissipated to the outside by the buildings, mainly by the low ones. The buildings architectural solutions associated to the structural solutions, meant to carry out buildings with a low energy consumption used by the thermal utilities (heating / cooling) emphasize the impact of the building – gr...
