Examination of ambient temperature variations effects on predicted fluid temperatures in vertical boreholes
Cimmino, Massimo (International Ground Source Heat Pump Association, 2017)A fully-coupled model of geothermal bore fields is presented, taking into account the axial variations of borehole wall temperatures and heat extraction rates along the borehole lengths, fluid temperature variations inside ... -
Heat pump capacity effects on peak electricity consumption and total length of self- and solar-assisted shallow ground heat exchanger networks
Eslami Nejad, Parham; Cimmino, Massimo; Hosatte-Ducassy, Sophie (International Ground Source Heat Pump Association, 2017)A new "self-assisted" Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) system configuration is proposed to address the relatively high peak electricity demand of undersized GSHP systems equipped with auxiliary electric heater. In this ...
