A modified model for a borehole ground heat exchanger borefield (BHE) of a ground-source heat pump (GSHP) system was … inhomogeneous groundwater flow in the soil. The model was validated using FLUENT for a single borehole based on a constant load … along the effective length of the borehole with good agreement. The present model was then used to investigate the effect of …

Computer simulation of borehole ground heat exchangers used in geothermal heat pump systems was conducted using three …-dimensional implicit finite difference method with rectangular coordinate system. Each borehole was approximated by a square column … circumscribed by the borehole radius. Borehole loading profile calculated numerically based on the prescribed borehole temperature …

An enhanced heat transport then occurs due to the induced … part of the borehole while groundwater of ambient temperature enters the borehole through fractures at larger depths. This …

The objective of this study is to show the temperature distribution development in the borehole of the ground … was placed in a vertical borehole (VB) with 30 (VB1), 60 (VB2) and 90 (VB3)m depths and 150mm diameters. The experimental …
