Abstract
The first phase of a research project using undisturbed soil for sensible heat storage is described. A laboratory scale model of a heat exchange system was constructed and tested. Thermal charging and recovery rates, modes of heat transport and transient temperature conditions, as well as over-all heat storage performance of the unit are given. The experimental results are compared with predictions of a numerical model based on mass and heat transport. A prototype field installation has been constructed and preliminary results are presented.
