Abstract:In order to optimize the design and operation of a ground source heat pump system, the modeling of the Borehole Heat Exchanger (BHE) and its coupling to the heat pump operation becomes crucial. This becomes key for those systems with on/off operation, where it is important to model the short-term response of the BHE accurately. Furthermore, the modeling of the local variation of the ground temperature near the BHE will be highly influenced by ground thermal properties and the operation of the system. In this c… Show more
