The GEMAS (geochemical mapping of agricultural soil) project collected 2108 Ap horizon soil samples from regularly ploughed fields in 33 European countries, covering 5.6 million km2. The <2 mm fraction of these samples was analysed for 53 elements by ICP-MS and ICP-AES, following a HNO3/HCl/H2O (modified aqua regia) digestion. Results are used here to establish the geochemical background variation...
This paper describes the mathematical modeling of vertical and horizontal GHEs (ground heat exchangers) and compares their efficiency. The model used calculates the heat flow in the fluid, tubes, grout and ground. The vertical U-tube GHE is represented by two 100 m lines, embedded in four different types of ground with an additional bottom base. The horizontal GHE consists of four 50 m tube lines...
The ground can be used as an energy source, an energy sink, or for energy storage and for this reason ground characteristics should be available. Therefore the purpose of this paper is to present the recorded ground temperatures at eight representative sites of Cyprus, in relation to depth, time of year, geology and altitude and discuss the efficiency of Ground Coupled Heat Pumps. The ground temperature...
