RISEffect of Temperature and Radial Displacement Cycles on Soil–Concrete Interface Properties Using Modified Thermal Borehole Shear Test
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Thermoactive geostructures (such as energy piles) are used for heating and cooling of buildings, which generate daily temperature changes and cycles in the geostructure and surrounding soil due to the intermittent operation ...
Analysis of Novel Regenerative Thermo-Mechanical Refrigeration System Integrated With Isobaric Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Refrigerants of the conventional cooling systems contribute to global warming and ozone depletion significantly, therefore it is necessary to develop new cooling systems that use renewable energy resources and waste heat ...
Validation of Direct Beam Irradiance Measurements From Rotating Shadowband Irradiometers in a Region With Different Atmospheric Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Rotating shadowband irradiometers (RSIs) are a common type of radiation sensors for measurement of direct normal irradiance (DNI) at remote sites where daily maintenance of the instruments is not feasible or practicable. ...
