Comparative study of operating and control strategies for hybrid ground-source heat pump systems using a short time step simulation model.

Summary

Ground-source heat pumps for cooling-dominated commercial buildings may utilize supplemental heat rejecters such as cooling towers, fluid coolers, or surface heat rejecters to reduce system first cost and to improve system performance. The use of supplemental heat rejecters for cooling-dominated buildings allows the use of smaller borehole fields. A comparative study is presented for various system and control strategies using an hourly-system simulation model under different climatic conditions.
