Özet:
Pile foundations are deep foundation systems that are used to transfer loads from superstructure to soil by either resisting surface friction or reaching a deeper and stiffer soil layer when geotechnical properties of the soil site are not sufficient to carry the loads transferred from superstructure. Energy piles fulfill the same function along with the ground heat exchanging via heat pump systems, thus satisfying the energy demand of a building for heating-cooling operations. This feature of energy piles draws attention as an innovative system supplying a renewable energy resource. However, heat exchanging operations of energy piles cause temperature variations on pile and the surrounding soil which may cause additional load and deformations. Moreover, temperature variations may affect the elasticity modulus of soils and shear strength of cohesive soils. In this study, earthquake response of an axially energy loaded pile was investigated considering the heating effect under 2020 Izmir earthquake motion using finite element method and compared to the those of identical regular piles. We performed analyses with different soil types, geometric properties, and temperature magnitudes under steady-state heating. Based on the analysis results, heating effect on pile head stiffness with respect to geometric properties were obtained. Two important conclusions have been made; (i) the most critical effect on heating depends on mechanical loading condition of pile and thermal expansion coefficient of soil, (ii) geometric properties may affect the temperature distribution resulting in an unforeseen change in pile head stiffness
