Computational Modeling of Shallow Geothermal Systems

by Rafid Al-Khoury

Book Overview

A Step-by-step Guide to Developing Innovative Computational Tools for Shallow Geothermal SystemsGeothermal heat is a viable source of energy and its environmental impact in terms of CO2 emissions is significantly lower than conventional fossil fuels. Shallow geothermal systems are increasingly utilized for heating and cooling of buildings and greenhouses. However, their utilization is inconsistent with the enormous amount of energy...
