This paper presents an experimental and numerical study on evaluation of thermal response and performance of prototype precast-high strength concrete (PHC) energy pile. Short-term field thermal response tests (TRTs) were conducted for the PHC energy piles installed in partially saturated...

This paper presents a numerical and experimental study on the evaluation of borehole thermal resistance with TRT (thermal response test) and TPT (thermal performance test) results observed in closed-loop vertical type boreholes with U and W type GHEs (ground heat exchangers). Field TRTs were...
