  6. 4. Thermal Interference Between Neighbouring Ground-Source Heat Pumps : Tools to Calcualte it and Solutions to Limit it

    Author : Maria Letizia Fascì; Joachim Claesson; Alberto Lazzarotto; Loius Lamarche; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ground source heat pumps; thermal interference; neighbouring geothermal boreholes; finite line source; mitigation strategies; Energiteknik; Energy Technology;

    Abstract : Ground Source Heat Pumps (GSHPs) have emerged as a promising technology for decarbonization of the heating sector. However, their increasing prevalence in densely populated areas may lead to considerable changes in the ground temperature, which can ultimately lead to reduced performance of the systems. READ MORE

  7. 5. Capacity-controlled Ground Source Heat Pump Systems for Swedish single-family dwellings

    Author : Hatef Madani; Per Lundqvist; Joachim Claesson; Jose Miguel Corberan Salvador; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Heat Pump; Capacity control; ground; ground source; geothermal;

    Abstract : The overall objective of this thesis is to develop a structured method to approach the challenge of better understanding the techniques and potential for capacity control in Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) systems used in Swedish single-family dwellings. This thesis aims at development of a generic model of the system that can be used for comparative, descriptive, and predictive analysis of capacity controlled GSHP systems in single-family dwellings.
