Abstract: Heat advection by groundwater flow is known to improve the performance of ground heat exchangers (GHEs), but the effect of groundwater advection on performance is not yet fully understood. This numerical study examined how ...

Abstract: Feasibility of a ground source heat pump (GSHP) system with pile heat exchangers for use in houses is evaluated through a numerical simulation. This GSHP system differs from ordinary boreholetype GSHP systems because short ...

Abstract: The short-cycling operation of a heat pump decreases energy consumption efficiency. Short-cycling operations of ground source heat pump system (GSHP) occur when the ON/OFF control of a heat pump is used in a partial load ...
