Developing Geothermal Energy Research Capabilities at University College Dublin

Hemmingway, Phil ; Long, Michael (Michael M.) (Geothermal Association of Ireland, 2011)

Ireland has one of the highest energy dependencies in Europe and as such must adapt quickly to increase renewable energy exploitation levels in order to secure its energy future. A mix of renewable energy technology types ...
Interpretation of In Situ and Laboratory Thermal Measurements Resulting in Accurate Thermogeological Characterisation

Hemmingway, Phil ; Long, Michael (Michael M.) (Taylor & Francis, 2012-09)

Growing worldwide interest in the exploitation of geothermal energy resources has led to a scenario where the technology routinely forms part of building-scale renewable energy feasibility studies. A thorough understanding ...
Mechanisms for thermal conduction in hydrogen hydrate

English, Niall J. ; Gorman, Paul D. ; MacElroy, J. M. Don (American Institute of Physics, 2012-01-23)

Extensive equilibrium molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been performed to investigate thermal conduction mechanisms via the Green-Kubo approach for (type II) hydrogen hydrate, at 0.05 kbar and between 30 and 250 K, ...
