Modeling and optimization of hybrid ground source heat pump with district heating and cooling

Heat exchanger technology and applications: ground source heat pump system for buildings heating and cooling

The earth’s surface acts as a huge solar collector, absorbing radiation from the sun. In the UK, the ground maintains a constant temperature of 11-13oC several metres below the surface all the year around.1 Among many other alternative energy resources and new potential technologies, the ground source heat pumps (GSHPs) are receiving increasing interest because of their potential to reduce prim...

Cooling and Heating with Ground Source Energy

In the recent attempts to stimulate alternative energy sources for heating and cooling of buildings, emphasis has been put on utilisation of the ambient energy from ground source and other renewable energy sources. Exploitation of renewable energy sources and particularly ground heat in buildings can significantly contribute towards reducing dependency on fossil fuels. This paper highlights the...

Simulation and Optimization of Ground Source Heat Pump Systems

01 The conceptual design of the photovoltaic solar thermal collector hybrid system and the ground source heat pump to provide electricity, heating and cooling a residential building focusing on technical, economic and environmental parameters.

This paper attempts to present and compare four solar assisted ground source heat pump combined systems with series and parallel layouts and direct and indirect heat exchange in Zahedan in order to supply part of the electricity demand for equipment and selling surplus electricity to the grid as a source of project financing and revenue generation for residents, moreover, fulfill the region's n...

Extremum Seeking Control of Hybrid Ground Source Heat Pump System

The Hybrid Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) system features the combination of ground heat exchanger (GHE) and cooling tower for rejecting the cooling load, which enables the use of the renewable resource of geothermal energy while reducing the cost of installation for applications of high cooling demand. However, model based control for efficient operation of the GSHP system can be intricate due...
