Over the past two decades rising fossil fuel prices and the need to reduce CO2 emissions have led to the development of alternative energy research. One of the most readily available alternative energy resources is geothermal energy. Although the design and construction of shallow geothermal systems are already well understood, evaluating their effect on the subsurface environment requires appropriate modeling tools. The availability and reliability of computer codes for shallow geothermal systems are crucial to the further development and acceptance of this technology. This book evaluates...
