Fabric, Texture, and Bubble Characteristics of the Million‐Year Old Allan Hills Blue Ice Core ALHIC1901

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Ice cores from the Allan Hills blue ice area in Antarctica have been dated to several million years of age. However, the stratigraphy of these cores is often disturbed, and age reversals are common, hampering the interpretation of the derived climate records.

Model for dimensioning borehole heat exchanger applied to mixed-integer-linear-problem (MILP) energy system optimization

open access: yesGeothermal Energy
This paper introduces three novel approaches to size geothermal energy piles in a MILP, offering fresh perspectives and potential solutions. The research overlooks MILP models that incorporate the sizing of a geothermal borefield.

Numerical Simulation of Nanofluid Suspensions in a Geothermal Heat Exchanger

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
It has been shown that using nanofluids as heat carrier fluids enhances the conductive and convective heat transfer of geothermal heat exchangers. In this paper, we study the stability of nanofluids in a geothermal exchanger by numerically simulating ...

Making the Red One Green – Renewable Heat from Abandoned Flooded Mines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Abandoned mines are often allowed to flood, sometimes overflowing at the surface to form discharges of potentially contaminated (often ochreous, acidic or metal-rich) mine water.

Comparison of two different models for pile thermal response test interpretation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Thermal response tests (TRTs) are regularly used to characterise the thermal resistance of borehole heat exchangers and to assess the thermal conductivity of the surrounding ground.

Optimal sizing of borehole heat exchangers

open access: yesStrojarstvo : časopis za teoriju i praksu u strojarstvu, 2009
The heat pumps coupled to the borehole heat exchangers (BHE) can serve for heating and/or cooling of buildings. Optimal sizing of BHE is important because of high drilling costs and importance of matching borehole thermal capacity with the capacity of the heat pump.

Analysis of rock mass borehole temperatures with vertical heat exchanger

open access: yesResearch in Agricultural Engineering, 2012
The goal of the article is to analyze the distribution and changes of temperatures in boreholes with the rock mass/fluid tubular heat exchangers used as an energy source for the heat pump.

Thermal Performance of Borehole Heat Exchangers with Varying Borehole Depths in Cold Regions: Implications from In Situ Thermal Response Tests

open access: yesEnergies
In cold regions, performance reduction in a Ground-Coupled Heat Pump (GSHP) system has been frequently reported. Many operational strategies have been adopted to mitigate such an undesirable phenomenon.
