Richard Stockton Ghp System: a Case Study of Energy and Financial Savings
نویسندگان
چکیده
What is probably the largest single closed loop ground-coupled water loop heat pump system has been installed and been operational since January 1994 at Richard Stockton College. The energy savings, heat flow into and out of the closed loop well field, well field temperature and aquifer flow, as well as the microbiology of the aquifers and geochemistry are all being monitored. Computer simulation models for well field design are being tested for validity. The work reported here is on the energy savings and subsequent financial benefits while the remaining scientific results are reported in two other papers at this conference.
