Abstract

This study investigates the impact of climate change and intense urbanization on Low-Temperature Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage (LT-ATES) systems. A synthetic groundwater model was developed to consider transient thermal boundary conditions due to climate change, urbanization, and evolving building thermal demands. Four scenarios were analyzed, showing potentially significant influences on subsurface thermal conditions, leading to distinct aquifer temperature profiles. The results for conditions with strong ground heat gain indicate pronounced subsurface warming and imbalanced thermal plume extensions and decreasing ATES performance over time. Recommendations include incorporating realistic surface boundary conditions in ATES modeling and strategies to mitigate adverse thermal impacts from urbanization.

土地覆盖和气候变化对含水层储热系统性能的影响

本文研究了气候变化和强烈城市化对低温含水层储热系统的影响。建立了一个综合地下水模型，考虑了气候变化、城市化和不断变化的建筑热需求所带来的瞬态热边界条件。分析了四种情景，显示了对地下热条件的潜在显著影响，导致不同的含水层温度分布。在地表热增益强的条件下，随着时间的推移，地表下变暖明显，热羽扩展不平衡，ATES性能下降。建议包括将现实的地表边界条件纳入ATES模型和减轻城市化不利热影响的策略。

期刊介绍： Geothermics is an international journal devoted to the research and development of geothermal energy. The International Board of Editors of Geothermics, which comprises specialists in the various aspects of geothermal resources, exploration and development, guarantees the balanced, comprehensive view of scientific and technological developments in this promising energy field. It promulgates the state of the art and science of geothermal energy, its exploration and exploitation through a regular exchange of information from all parts of the world. The journal publishes articles dealing with the theory, exploration techniques and all aspects of the utilization of geothermal resources. Geothermics serves as the scientific house, or exchange medium, through which the growing community of geothermal specialists can provide and receive information.
