Modelling and Simulation of the Earth-to-Air Heat Exchanger in Laminar Air Flow Regime for the Passive Cooling of Buildings

Yendouban Kolani, Kokou N’wuitcha, Yawovi Nougbléga, Magolmèèna Banna & Belkacem Zeghmati · Current Journal of Applied Science and Technology · 2023

The earth-to-air heat exchanger is a very energy efficient system for preheating and cooling premises, which consists of circulating air through a tube buried at a certain depth in the ground. The temperature of the ground is less variable than that of the outside air, so that th...

Contribution of the Provençal Well for the Improvement of the Thermal Comfort in the Building in Turbulent Regime

Kokou N’wuitcha, Ouro-Djobo Essoavana Samah, Yendouban Kolani, Magolmèèna Banna & Belkacem Zeghmati · Asian Journal of Physical and Chemical Sciences · 2022

In the current energy context, geothermal systems are highly developed in the building field. Among these interesting systems on the energy plan, one finds in particular the earth-to-air heat  exchanger commonly called ‘Canadian or Provençal well’. It consists of tubes buried in...

Numerical Study of Turbulent Mixed Convection in a Square Lid Driven Cavity with an Inside Hot Bloc

Komlan Djiwonou Woenagnon, Kokou N’wuitcha, Komi Apélété Amou & Magolmèèna Banna · Physical Science International Journal · 2022

In this study, we are interested in the two-dimensional numerical simulation of the turbulent mixed convection in the case of a square with two side lid-driven cavity containing a hot obstacle. The transfer equations coupled with those of the  K - ε closure model and the boundary...

Analytical and Numerical Studies of Transient Heat Transfer in Soil for Geothermal Systems

Yendouban Kolani, Komlan Déla Donald Aoukou, Kokou N’wuitcha & Magolmèèna Banna · Physical Science International Journal · 2022

The study of geothermal systems requires a good knowledge of heat transfers in the depth of the soil. The aim of this work is to study the distribution of temperature in the ground under the climatic conditions of Togo. The analytical and numerical solutions of unidirectional hea...
