- Abstract
A deep buried pipe energy pile (DBP-EP) is a composite structure that integrates ground-source heat pump (GSHP) systems and inside buried pipe energy piles (IBP-EP) to effectively achieve the improvement of heat transfer efficiency and quantity. Utilizing this technology in building a pile foundation can contribute to reducing carbon emissions. This paper studies the variation rules of the thermomechanical response of DBP-EP under temperature load via field testing and numerical simulation. The results show that, under heating and cooling conditions, the DBP-EP temperature variation within the pile is substantial, while there is no significant change in the temperature field at the bottom of the pile. This is different from the internal temperature change of the temperature distribution of IBP-EP. The minimum axial average strain of the DBP-EP under the cooling condition is significantly smaller than that under the heating condition. However, the additional axial average strain under the temperature load is significantly larger than that in the heating condition, resulting in larger additional axial stress when the pile is cooled. The connection between the pile and foundation must considered in design due to the large settlement of the pile top under cooling conditions. When only under the temperature load, the maximum axial average pressure increments of the pile in our test during heating and cooling are −85.3 kN/°C and 99.4 kN/°C, respectively, suggesting that the additional load cannot be ignored.
