A Review on Heat Transfer Enhancement of Borehole Heat Exchanger

Energy Procedia, 2016
Abstract The heat transfer enhancements of borehole heat exchanger (BHE) have been intensively studied which strongly influences the performance of ground-coupled heat pump (GCHP) systems. In this paper, some typical heat transfer enhancement methods of BHE are reviewed based on BHE designs, grout materials and the influence of artificial groundwater

Demonstration of a High‐Resolution Passive Profiler for Characterizing the Distribution of PFAS in Groundwater: A Comparison of Methods in the Field

Groundwater Monitoring &Remediation, EarlyView.
Abstract Characterizing the concentration and mass flux spatial distributions at sites with complex hydrogeologic conditions is critical to evaluate the fate and transport of contaminants, as well as to design effective remediation programs. PFAS (per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances)‐contaminated sites are even more complex due to the large number of ...

The use of thermal imaging to assess heat generation during dental implant bed preparation in the presence of a surgical guide with an incorporated coolant channel

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study evaluates the thermodynamic benefits of including an irrigation fluid channel in the design of surgical guides used for dental implant site drilling. Materials and Methods Two types of guides suitable for hosting artificial bone plates that mimic the mechanical properties of human alveolar bone were designed: a classical ...

Polymict melt‐bearing breccia dikes in the Morokweng impact structure formed by slip‐induced mechanical mixing of pseudotachylite and cataclasite along large‐displacement impact faults

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract A core drilled through shocked and faulted Archean granitoid gneisses and dolerites in the eroded peak ring of the 70–80 km diameter Morokweng impact structure intersects multiple centimeter‐ to meter‐wide clastic‐matrix breccias containing a polymict clast population of lithic and mineral clasts and altered, millimeter‐ to centimeter ‐size ...

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1582-1605, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

The deeper the better? A thermogeological analysis of medium-deep borehole heat exchangers in low-enthalpy crystalline rocks

Geothermal Energy, 2022
The energy sector is undergoing a fundamental transformation, with a significant investment in low-carbon technologies to replace fossil-based systems. In densely populated urban areas, deep boreholes offer an alternative over shallow geothermal systems,

Numerical Modeling of the Thermo‐Mechanical and Electrical Behavior of a Sensor‐Integrating Jaw Coupling

Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Industry 4.0 requires more and more data from the production process, for example, on transmitted forces, torques and wear, in order to reduce expensive downtimes and to increase productivity. Direct or indirect methods can be used to collect this data.
