Summary:
"Compilation of investigations of low-temperature ground-source geothermal and high-temperature hydrothermal systems. Contributions include studies on the feasibility of integrating geological modeling with system design, extraction of low-temperature geothermal energy in underground coal mines, ground-source heat pump systems, models that couple heat transfer with groundwater flow and/or stratigraphy, and enhanced geothermal systems"-- Provided by publisher.
