Summary

This article presents an integrated optimal mathematical model for a geothermal heat pump. A computation programme was also developed. On the premise of ensuring that the unit will fulfil the heating and cooling requirements of buildings, this model was used to calculate and optimize some key operating parameters and components according to different temperatures and depths of groundwater. It combines the reliability and economy of heating and cooling and achieves the most optimal match of each part of the system. The present method will lead to a greater improvement in the performance of the heat pump than the traditional method.
