Review on thermal energy storage with phase change materials (PCMs) in building applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Thermal energy storage with phase change materials (PCMs) offers a high thermal storage density with a moderate temperature variation, and has attracted growing attention due to its important role in achieving energy conservation in buildings with ...

Comparison of Four Methods for Borehole Heat Exchanger Sizing Subject to Thermal Response Test Parameter Estimation

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
The impact of different parameter estimation results on the design length of a borehole heat exchanger has received very little attention. This paper provides an in-depth investigation of this problem, together with a full presentation of six data ...

A TRNSYS assisting tool for the estimation of ground thermal properties applied to TRT (thermal response test) data: B2G model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
[EN] The determination of ground thermal properties is essential to design competitive commercial ground source heat pump systems. A thermal response test (TRT) carried out on site allows the determination of both the conductivity of the ground and the ...

Thermal Response Testing of Large Diameter Energy Piles

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
Energy piles are a novel form of ground heat exchanger (GHE) used in ground source heat pump systems. However, characterizing the pile and ground thermal properties is more challenging than for traditional GHEs.

Masonry wall panels retrofitted with thermal-insulating GFRP-reinforced jacketing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Today there is a need to provide thermally efficient walls, while at the same time to increase the mechanical properties of old unreinforced masonry walls that will not require large amounts of energy in the retrofitting or deconstruction processes.

Evaluating Variability of Ground Thermal Conductivity within a Steep Site by History Matching Underground Distributed Temperatures from Thermal Response Tests

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
The variability of ground thermal conductivity, based on underground conditions, is often ignored during the design of ground-source heat pump systems.

Extending capabilities of Thermal Response Tests in vertical ground heat exchangers: an experiment-based local short-time temperature response factor. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This work presents a fast and practical method to determine a characteristic function that predicts a local ground response of vertical ground heat exchangers (GHE) in a short term, which is mandatory when intermittent operation modes are modelled.
