Theoretical modelling of heat transfer in non-homogeneous porous media
Abstract: The paper is focused on the study and analysis of heat transfer in geothermal substrates made up of non-homogeneous porous media. The paper analyses the influence of porosity on the heat transfer as a result of the combination of conduction and convection mechanisms that take place in non-homogeneous porous materials. As a result of the combined effect heat transfer is not homogeneously distributed throughout the cross section of the geothermal …
