Laboratory-scale pull-out tests on a geothermal energy pile in dry sand subjected to heating cycles
Elzeiny, Rehab; Suleiman, Muhannad T.; Xiao, Suguang; Qamar, Mu’Ath Abu; Al-Khawaja, Mohammed ( National Research Council of Canada , 2020 , Article)Ground source heat pumps coupled with energy piles operate intermittently, subjecting the piles to temperature cycles throughout their lifetime. The research presented in this paper focuses on studying the thermomechanical ... -
Soil-concrete interface properties subjected to temperature changes and cycles using direct shear tests
Xiao, Suguang; Suleiman, Muhannad T.; Elzeiny, Rehab; Xie, Huan; Al-Khawaja, Mohammed ( American Society of Civil Engineers Library (ASCE Library) , 2017 , Conference Paper)Geothermal foundations (energy piles) combine the structural function of deep foundations with the ground source heat exchangers to transfer geothermal energy to superstructures. The intermittent operation of the geothermal ...
