Performance assessment of a potential underground thermal storage facility: Case study of the closed mine Prosper‐Haniel in the Ruhr coal mining area in Germany

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the feasibility of an underground closed‐loop thermal storage facility at a post‐mining site, intended for seasonal heat energy storage. Its principal design shows water flow directions in winter and summer (1, 2), heat pumps (3), an upper water reservoir (4), and connecting pipes (5).

Nature‐Based Solutions for Climate Adaptation: Review of Barriers to Adoption and Guidelines for Policymakers

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nature‐based solutions (NBS) for climate adaptation encompass a range of approaches that work with nature to increase resilience to climate change while providing ecological, economic and social co‐benefits. These solutions have frequently been put forward for application in urban contexts, such as the creation of urban forests, but can ...

An Innovative Rural Heating System Utilizing Coupled Cascade Thermal Storage: A Performance Analysis

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Fig. 1. New rural heating system ABSTRACT This study presents a new rural heating system based on cascaded heat storage and air‐source heat pumps. Through a comparative analysis using the TRNSYS software between this system and the traditional solar‐assisted air‐source heat pump system, it was found that compared with the latter, the new system saves ...

Effects of Concentrations of Water‐Based MgO Nanofluid on Heat Transfer Performance in Shell‐and‐Tube Heat Exchanger

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This figure shows the variation of the total heat transfer coefficient of a shell and tube heat exchanger with different concentrations of water‐based MgO nanofluids at different inlet flow rates. The results indicate that the total heat transfer coefficient increases with increasing flow velocity, and at different volume fraction settings, the ...

Design of HAWT Rotor for Non‐Uniform Inflow Conditions: A Theoretical and Experimental Approach for Shear Flow

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper aims to provide a robust design approach for HAWTs operating in shear flow. This study fills a critical research gap by integrating BEM and vortex theories for blade design in non‐homogeneous inflow conditions. The authors of the paper made an effort to develop and test an experimentally unsophisticated model of a turbine working in shear ...

Binary Nanoparticle Combinations in Acetone‐Based Working Fluids for Thermal Performance Enhancement of Evacuated Tube Solar Water Collectors

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Illustration of the work. ABSTRACT This experimental investigation evaluates the thermal performance enhancement of evacuated tube solar water collectors through the implementation of binary nanofluid formulations using acetone as the base fluid. Three metal oxide nanoparticles, including magnesium oxide (MgO), copper oxide (CuO), and titanium dioxide (
