Geothermal Energy Resources

open access: yes, 2013
In physics, energy is the ability of a physical system to do work on other physical systems. There are many different forms of energy including mechanical (potential, kinetic), thermal, electric, chemical and nuclear energy. Thermal energy can be understood as the random motion of atoms and molecules.

Biomimetic and Compressible Wood Phase Change Gel With Hierarchically Aligned Lamellar Structure for Controlled Thermal Management

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Inspired by skeletal muscle thermogenesis, a wood phase change gel exhibiting mechano‐controlled heat release is developed. Under compression, the wood phase change gel overcomes its energy barrier, inducing its phase change from supercooling to crystallization and raising its overall temperature by around 5°C.

Mesoporous Silica‐Based Photocatalytic Materials for Solar Energy Storage and Utilization

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The efficient storage and application of sustainable solar energy has drawn significant attention from both academic and industrial points of view. However, most developed catalytic materials still suffer from insufficient mass diffusion and unsatisfactory durability due to the lack of interconnected and regulatable porosity.

An Experimental Facility to Validate Ground Source Heat Pump Optimisation Models for the Australian Climate

open access: yesEnergies, 2017
Ground source heat pumps (GSHPs) are one of the most widespread forms of geothermal energy technology. They utilise the near-constant temperature of the ground below the frost line to achieve energy-efficiencies two or three times that of conventional ...
