Abstract:The novel method of combining geothermal energy with an all-air heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system is presented in this work. A building in Lebanon serves as the case study, which aims to determine the necessary mass flow rate for the conditioned space. Rather than permitting ambient air to enter the Air Handling Unit (AHU) directly, the plan calls for a 2-meter-deep geothermal duct to be buried. By adjusting the air temperature prior to it entering the AHU, this geothermal duct helps to … Show more
