Field Experiments to Evaluate Thermal Performance of Energy Slabs with Different Installation Conditions
The energy slab is a novel type of horizontal Ground Heat Exchanger (GHEX), where heat exchange pipes are encased in building slab structures. The thermal performance of energy slabs is usually inferior to the conventional closed-loop vertical GHEX because its installation depth is relatively shallo...
