Abstract
Based on stochastic analysis and non-steady-state heat transfer theory, the ground-source heat pump (GSHP) technology for road and bridge surface snow melting is studied, also the concept of random analysis in heat transfer is put forward. The factors influencing energy consumption in snow melting and builds, the total energy consumption calculation for the snow melting system, and the principle of mining energy on the pavement and the key technologies in construction are discussed. The random heat transfer models of snow melting on pavement and buried pipe, main thermal property parameters in heat transfer are analyzed, and the numerical simulation on heat transfer in snow melting pavement and buried pipe is proposed applying stochastic finite element method in this paper.
