Abstract Space cooling now has the fastest-growing energy end-use in buildings, with an
almost tripled energy demand compared to 1990. This paper provides a state-of-the-art …

District heating will play an important role for heat provision in temperate and cold climate
zones in the future. However, in the context of decarbonizing the heating sector …

The goal of this study was to evaluate the long-term energy and exergy performance of a
large-scale seasonal borehole thermal energy storage system for industrial waste heat and …

Thermally induced convection in the vicinity of borehole heat exchangers (BHE) in porous
media affects the heat transfer behaviour between the BHE and the surrounding ground and …

The use of intermittent renewable energy sources is of great importance for reducing
greenhouse gas emissions. Medium-deep borehole thermal energy storage systems (MD …

In this study, a large-scale industrial waste heat heating system integrated with borehole
thermal energy storage (BTES) and an absorption heat pump was proposed, designed, and …

The ground surface condition is crucial in the thermal analysis of borehole heat exchange
(BHE) systems, as it directly influences the thermal regime within the subsurface. However …

District heating plays a key role in achieving the TU Darmstadt's emission reduction target
for 2050. A combination of efficiency measures, integration of solar thermal collectors, waste …

In this study the influence of different groundwater flow conditions on the short-and long-term
thermal performance of SBTES system is studied. Numerical analyses of a SBTES system …
