Simulation of the thermo-hydraulic response of energy piles in unsaturated soils
This paper focuses on the simulation of the coupled heat transfer and water flow in unsaturated soil layers surrounding a solitary energy pile undergoing heating and cooling cycles typical of a field-scale energy pile. The results indicate that heating leads to drying of the soil surrounding the ene...
