Cold storage caverns

Advances in coupled processes research have also been made in the context of construction of major dams (Guo et al., 2004 Zhu et al., 2004). development of cold storage caverns (Lee and Lee, 2004), and grouting boreholes in permafrost (Fomin et al., 2004a).

We estimated from the maintenance results that the thermal loss in Gonjiam underground cold storage cavern is mostly induced from the groundwater flow and latent heat of freezing due to the poor quality of rock mass of surrounding storage cavern.
