Thermal Use of Shallow Groundwater introduces the theoretical fundamentals of heat transport in groundwater systems and discusses the essential thermal properties. It presents a complete overview of analytical and numerical subsurface heat transport modeling and includes mathematical tools and simulation models based on analytical and numerical solutions of the heat transport equation. It is illustrated with case studies from Austria, Germany, and Switzerland of urban thermal energy use, heat storage, and cooling.
This book provides a comprehensive overview of analytical and numerical subsurface heat transport modeling for students in civil or environmental engineering, engineering geology, and hydrogeology, and it can serve as a reference for industry professionals. It also offers a download for a complete set of analytical solutions and MATLAB codes.
