Abstract
Abstract This chapter focuses on the analysis of the heat and mass transfer phenomena characterising energy geostructures in a time-independent framework that is representative of steady conditions. Relevant reference time and space scales allowing the modelling of heat and mass transfers under the considered conditions are discussed, and the analytical analysis of heat and mass transfer phenomena within and around energy geostructures is presented via the consideration of the processes involved with the flow of a heat carrier fluid in pipes. The developments proposed in this chapter serve as a basis for the time-dependent analytical analysis of heat transfer that constitutes Chapter 9, Analytical modelling of transient heat transfer.
