Quantifying the technical geothermal potential from shallow borehole heat exchangers at regional scale

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni, Alina Ursula Rosa Walch

The extraction of shallow geothermal energy using borehole heat exchangers (BHEs) is a promising approach for decarbonisation of the heating sector. However, a dense deployment of BHEs may lead to thermal interference between neighboring boreholes and ther ...

Journal of Physics: Conference Series High-pressure specific heat technique to uncover novel states of quantum matter

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Julio Antonio Larrea Jiménez

AC-specific heat measurements remain as the foremost thermodynamic experimental method to underpin phase transitions in tiny samples. However, its performance under combined extreme conditions of high-pressure, very low temperature and intense magnetic fie ...

Copper battery for heat to power conversion and energy storage

Sunny Isaïe Maye

An important part of the electricity production relies on heat conversion. Indeed power plants burn fuels like natural gas, coal or use nuclear fission to produce heat that can be transformed into electricity through a thermodynamic cycle and the mechanica ...

Spatiotemporal pattern formation in E. coli biofilms explained by a simple physical energy balance

Anne-Florence Raphaëlle Bitbol

While the biofilm growth mode conveys notable thriving advantages to bacterial populations, the mechanisms of biofilm formation are still strongly debated. Here, we investigate the remarkable spontaneous formation of regular spatial patterns during the gro ...

Ferrimagnetic 120 degrees magnetic structure in Cu2OSO4

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Arnaud Magrez, Ivica Zivkovic, Nicola Casati, Helmuth Berger, Lin Yang, Gregory Scott Tucker, Virgile Yves Favre, Romain Sibille

We report magnetic properties of a 3d(9) (Cu2+) magnetic insulator Cu2OSO4 measured on both powder and single crystal. The magnetic atoms of this compound form layers whose geometry can be described either as a system of chains coupled through dimers or as ...

Pressure Drop and Convective Heat Transfer in Different SiSiC Structures Fabricated by Indirect Additive Manufacturing

Sophia Haussener, Ehsan Rezaei, Alberto Ortona, Maurizio Barbato

The microstructure of porous materials has a significant effect on their transport properties. Engineered cellular ceramics can be designed to exhibit properties at will, thanks to the advances in additive manufacturing. We investigated the heat and mass t ...

Seismic design of non-dissipative embedded column base connections

Dimitrios Lignos, Hiroyuki Inamasu

Embedded Column Base (ECB) connections in seismically resistant steel moment frames are commonly designed to be stronger than the connected column, to protect them from inelastic actions. This relies on estimation of demands induced by the column and the s ...
