Author(s) : SPURR C. M.

Summary

SEASONAL AQUIFER STORAGE OF WINTER-CHILLED GROUND WATER IS A POTENTIALLY ECONOMICAL SOURCE OF CHILLED WATER FOR DISTRICT COOLING SYSTEMS. DURING WINTER, GROUND WATER WOULD BE PUMPED TO THE SURFACE, COOLED TO NEAR FREEZING USING AMBIENT WINTER AIR, AND INJECTED INTO A SECOND WELL FOR SEASONAL STO FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS OF ANY DISTRICT COOLING SYSTEM REQUIRES INITIAL OPTIMIZATION OF VARIABLES, INCLUDING BUILDING LOAD CHARACTERISTICS, MARKET COMPETITION, DISTRIBUTION ALTERNATIVES, AND TOTAL SYSTEM ECONOMICS. INTEGRATION OF SEASONAL AQUIFER STORAGE WITH DISTRICT COOLING INCREASES THE COMPLEXITY OF THE INITIAL OPTIMIZATION ANALYSIS.
