On the applicability of the moving line source theory to thermal response test under groundwater flow: considerations from real case studies

Abstract The classical methodology to perform and analyze thermal response test (TRT) is unsuccessful when advection contributes to heat transfer in the ground, due to the presence of a groundwater flow. In this study, the applicability, the advantages, and the limitations of the moving line source...
