{"product_id":"an-introduction-to-thermogeology-isbn-9780470670347","title":"An Introduction to Thermogeology","description":"This authoritative guide provides a basis for understanding the emerging technology of ground source heating and cooling. It equips engineers, geologists, architects, planners and regulators with the fundamental skills needed to manipulate the ground's huge capacity to store, supply and receive heat, and to implement technologies (such as heat pumps) to exploit that capacity for space heating and cooling.  \u003cp\u003eThe author has geared the book towards understanding ground source heating and cooling from the ground side (the geological aspects), rather than solely the building aspects.  He explains the science behind thermogeology and offers practical guidance on different design options.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAn Introduction to Thermogeology: ground source heating and cooling\u003c\/i\u003e is aimed primarily at professionals whose skill areas impinge on the emerging technology of ground source heating and cooling.

Es gibt Ingenieuren, Architekten, Planern, Behörden und Geologen die fundamentalen Fähigkeiten an die Hand, die benötigt werden, um die enormen Wärmekapazitäten im Boden zu speichern, liefern und Wärme zu empfangen, und entsprechende Techniken (wie Wärmepumpen) anzuwenden, um diese Kapazitäten für Raumheizung und ?kühlung zu nutzen.\u003cbr\u003e Der Autor hat dabei das Buch auf das Verständnis von Erdwärmeheizung und ?kühlung von der Bodenseite (geologische Aspekte) ausgerichtet, anstatt sich nur auf die Gebäudeseite zu konzentrieren. Er erklärt die Wissenschaft hinter der Geothermie und bietet praktische Ansätze zu verschiedenen Planungsoptionen.\u003cbr\u003e Das Buch wendet sich in erster Linie an Fachleute, deren Fachgebiete in Wechselwirkung mit dieser aufkommenden Technologie stehen. Diese sind sich der Wichtigkeit dieser Technik bewusst und möchten daher schnell ein Grundwissen zum theoretischen Verständnis und planungsrelevante Kenntnisse erlangen. \u003cp\u003eAbout the Author

This authoritative guide provides a basis for understanding the emerging technology of ground source heating and cooling. It equips engineers, geologists, architects, planners and regulators with the fundamental skills needed to manipulate the ground's huge capacity to store, supply and receive heat, and to implement technologies (such as heat pumps) to exploit that capacity for space heating and cooling.  \u003cp\u003eThe author has geared the book towards understanding ground source heating and cooling from the ground side (the geological aspects), rather than solely the building aspects.  He explains the science behind thermogeology and offers practical guidance on different design options.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAn Introduction to Thermogeology: ground source heating and cooling\u003c\/i\u003e is aimed primarily at professionals whose skill areas impinge on the emerging technology of ground source heating and cooling.
